A Christmassy KC - Day One Four years ago, the good (yes) people of Twitter (yes) responded phenomenally to a request to make my profile photo more Christmassy. To show the low bar for new (non-AI!) entries, we'll start with this *cough* 'naive' art from Sigourney Beaver 🎗️🐹🐎🐦🌳🧡🧡🧡

Is there a magical portal that allows entry to the parallel London that can only be visited by people who have the horn for Viktor Orban?

Russian economic collapse: Russian Railways has urgently requested 200 billion rubles because it's out of money. The government is afraid to give them money though because so many other state companies are in equally deep trouble and need money too. Start making popcorn.🍿🍿🍿

I spent years in criminal courts I led prosecutions I believe in trial by #jury I always have We are in a national justice emergency Victims wait years Defendants wait too long Witnesses forget, lose faith, and drop away Cases collapse There is no cavalry coming over the hill 1/9

Two festive friends are hiding behind today's door... Who could they be? ✨ #RSPBAdvent25

My wife got out of the hospital, and thanked little Paddington with marmalade sandwich and 🇯🇵strawberries 😋

#TimelineCleanser Take a moment and enjoy these baby Foxes frolicking in the snow. Nature IS truly beautiful. #FoxOfTheDay 🦊.

Do I have to wear my wig and gown if it’s trial by judge alone? He knows what I look like. He’s seen me in the pub.

Your #FoxOfTheDay today is from matthew olschlager.bsky.social on BlueSky , thank you Matthew !

Song Thrush with a gobstopper! 😮😁😍🐦

A bundle of ginger happiness. Maddy playing with Rosie when she was a cub. Next time you see a hunt, remember dogs and foxes can feel the same emotions, joy, happiness, fear and terror. They also experience pain and suffering the same.

None at all. But the cranks who spread these bonkers videos that imply Cambridge professors want to cull the population may have to answer for putting those academics at risk.

It seems the birds aren't the only ones joining in the festivities this year… 🎄 A rather magnificent winter friend is waiting behind door 3. #RSPBAdvent25

🚨Putin publicly admits Russian economy is in decline With how much they try to hide the bad economic numbers, hearing Putin say publicly that there's an economic slowdown from "external pressure" must mean their internal projections are utterly catastrophic. How very sad.🥳🎉

SpaceX removed a Russian cosmonaut from Crew-12 for trying to pass on sensitive data. I, for one, am stunned. Russians stealing tech? Spying on Western programs? Violating national security rules? What’s next, guys, water will be wet?

Dr David Bull Cat check: Tories welcomed into Reform with open arms, despite the damage they did, include Jake Berry Danny Kruger Lee Anderson Zia Yusuf Sarah Pochin Nadine Dorries Andrea Jenkyns Maria Caulfield Jonathan Gullis Lia Nici Chris Green Adam Holloway Marco Longhi Ross Thomson David

Reform is reporting £331 million in savings across the councils it runs, but Private Eye’s Rotten Boroughs writer Saba Salman says the claims are complete guff. In Kent, the party’s flagship council, supposed tens of millions in savings include cutting councillor allowances

Joining the EU Single Market and Customs Union would give the Labour government a distinct purpose. There'd be immediate economic benefits and clear electoral difference to Reform Farage and Tories.
