Indeed. The death of a forty-a-day smoker who has had two previous heart attacks must be the result of the COVID vaccines. Piss off @DrAseemMalhotra you foul, predatory, grifting quack. @gmcuk do something about him. Now.

I have to say that @charltonbrooker's #AntiviralWipe is the best bit of lockdown telly I've yet seen. Absolutely bang-on. And because Wipe has always been Charlie in His Room, in front of a telly, no audience, it still works perfectly. (And Nice Konnie Huq is in it as well).

Rescued owl was 'too fat to fly'. His plumage was also too damp for him to mate. He was too wet to woo. IF THIS DOESN'T GET FIVE MILLION RTs AND ME A BLUE TICK ALL OF TWITTER CAN FUCK OFF.

Not a Versace photoshoot, this is 102 years ago - on Saturday 3rd March 1918. The Great War rages & photographer Paul Castlenau travelled to what became Jordan to take this autochrome of Fayz Bey el Azm (companion of Emir Fayçal) which I've Babelised for you. It is not colourised

Gold doesn’t dissolve in sulphuric acid unless an oxidising agent such as nitric acid is also present. The dissolved gold precipitates out when water is added. This is the sort of brainless shit I would expect from Bitcoin grifters. @hoaxeye.
Dissolving a bar of pure gold in boiling sulfuric acid. #Bitcoin can never be dissolved or destroyed.

The man is a warden in an orangutan rescue facility who was in the water clearing snakes. The ape is only semi-wild and was more likely asking for food. @hoaxeye Source:
A critically endangered orangutan reaches out to help a geologist who fell in the mud and got stuck. When the photographer, Anil Prabhakar, uploaded the photo, he wrote:. "At a time when the concept of humanity is dying, animals are leading us to the principles of humanity"

Laura Kenny is a brilliant summariser. TBH the BBC coverage is much better with all the girls as presenters and experts. Beth Tweddle, Laura, Jess Ennis-Hill, Denise Lewis, Becky Adlington et al all come over so well. And obviously are proper experts.

@EffinMaggie @FondOfBeetles @Parsleymael @eleonorasfalcon @JennaFights4You We had this from another gender goon yesterday. Who chose to ignore all the DSD folk who pitched up to tell them how and why they were wrong and to stop trying to appropriate their condition to try to legitimise male cross-dressing AGP fetishists. DSDs are sex-specific.

I said this Tweet was bollocks at the time. And two and a bit weeks on from it, we can see what bollocks it was. Case numbers have dropped 40% in a week. A record, and backed by ONS data. When will this pompous, ill-informed, pessimistic, pearl-clutching windbaggery cease?.
