Post a perfect album from the 90s that isn't Nirvana, Soundgarden, Pearl Jam, or Alice In Chains. There are many excellent choices, but the production on this album is absolutely impeccable and always sticks out in my mind as a result

Speaking of clones, I always get a little chuckle when I spot your @oracle.posters.rip label

“UX design is my passion” — bsky devs

A crop of the information on the bottom of a Bluesky post. On the first line it shows the total number of likes, followed by number of reposts, then quotes, then saves. Immediately underneath it shows similar information but in a different order: total replies, then total reposts & quotes summed together, then total likes.

My mother keeps these ones in the entrance hallway, always fun when a new person comes round and does an extremely cartoony double-take

A series of three lifelike headless pale white child mannequins on a shelf in a hallway. The one in the centre is a seated baby, flanked by two taller standing children—sized to probably represent an average six- & ten-year-old.

They are completely unclothed aside from piles of various hats—a bowler, a fez, a montera, amongst others—that are perched lop-sidedly where the mannequins’ heads would be.

The figures are placed at around head height, so they loom very slightly menacingly over the viewer, the piles of hats on the taller ones brushing against the ceiling.

Also on the same shelf is a sign in big, bold capital letters that reads “DO NOT RUN”

The cover for Madonna’s “Don’t Cry for Me Argentina” from the soundtrack to “Evita”. Errors have been scribbled out and badly photoshopped around so it reads “Me Cry”

Just worked out what it reminds me of

A Tesco “Burger Style” Southern Fried Chicken sandwich, the paper packaging printed with red & white stripes. It looks cheap and nasty, much like the USMNT World Cup kit

This (very serious) “Don’t Yeet Your Baby” warning sign on the passenger sun visor never fails to crack me up

A warning sign in the inside flap of a car sun visor.

The top of the sign says “AIRBAG” in big black letters on a yellow strip.

Underneath are a series of pictograms; the most relevant, central, image being a representation of an airbag (containing an arrow to show that it is inflating), next to a rear-facing infant’s booster seat in black (angled to imply that it has been forcefully impacted by the airbag), and the passenger seat that the booster chair was presumably previously attached to.

Between the passenger seat and the booster seat, in scarlet red, the icon of a baby is tumbling through the air, arms outstretched, having been flung at high speed head first into the headrest of the passenger seat.

Next to all of this is a surprisingly detailed icon of a finger pointing to the standard “book with the letter ‘i’” icon, as if to say “check the instruction manual for more information about catapulting babies with your airbag”

Found my old copy!

An illustration of a massive frowning, grinning fox, the artist’s style giving the fox extremely tiny eyes and a long curvy smile with hundreds of very tiny teeth along the whole length. On its nose is perched a small humanoid figure whose head is made from a small wheel of cheese.

Another illustration from the same children’s book; a column of various birds are shouting at a different fox, this one is dressed like some sort of station official or pilot. The fox is carrying a briefcase and has travel stickers and luggage tags attached to him. All the characters have the distinctive rows of tiny, creepy teeth.

Another illustration, this one of a duck. The long beak is once again filled with dozens and dozens of horrid, miniature teeth, drool drips from the end, tongue lolling out. The duck is covered with what looks more like fur than feathers. There are many motion lines to imply that it is quivering maniacally.

The silliness of British elections is fun sometimes

Sarah Wakefield, Count Binface (a man wearing a silver Darth Vader-esque costume with a giant grey bin for a helmet), Andy Burnham, and a man in a slightly squiffy red fox costume stand in a line on a stage. A news banner reads “MAKERFIELD DECLARATION”.

These four are all serious candidates in the election that people could and did vote for.
