James Wide worked for the Cape Town–Port Elizabeth Railway service. He lost his legs in a railcar jumping accident, & so he purchased a Chacma baboon in 1881, called him Jack, & trained him to push his wheelchair and to operate the railways signals under supervision, which he did for beer.

Have always enjoyed Kadrey’s books and just backed this
With 68 hours to go, we’re less than $600 away from bringing my lost novel, KAMIKAZE L’AMOUR, back into print! Can we push it over the top? Please take a look and consider backing it. Thanks! www.kickstarter.com/projects/kam...

Change your Twitter password if you still have an account there
Just found out about a massive data leak at Twitter/X. I don't use it anymore but I keep my account alive so no one else can claim my username. I just changed my password and suggest others do too. Also use 2FA whenever you can. More: cyberpress.org/9-4gb-twitte...

Honestly I wasn’t too worried because I feel like this keeps happening in France? They go Le Pen in the first round and then le what the fuck, non in the second
JUST IN: Polls closed in France. Exit polls show surprise: —Left coalition (New Popular Front) projected first. (!) —Far-right (RN) has lost its bid to take power. Anti-RN front appears to have worked very well. —No bloc close to majority. Follow this 🧵 for results and more:

I like to wind up my Daily Mail-reading mother by saying things like “Kier Stamer is passing a law to make Meghan Markle the next Queen” or “he’s going to tax pensions to pay for HS2”. Today my friend suggested “He’s renaming the Elizabeth Line to the Camilla Line” which is DEFINITELY getting used.

Honestly difficult to give Starmer any credit at all for winning a landslide, which seemed to happen almost in spite of Labour

On the BBC now Leadsom is talking a lot of desperate old shite about why Reform are making gains, because they’re more ‘normal’ (it turns out she basically means more racist)

If the exit polls are accurate I am disappointed. Instead of a repudiation of our worst politics it looks like merely a split in it. Thank fuck for FPTP.

fuck off Andrea Leadsom also, obviously

Americans may be wondering why Nigel Farage tends to stand in seaside towns for parliament and the simple reason is that he is an unholy Deep One hybrid, an abominable commingling of fish and man, and it just makes for an easier commute to the accursed darkness of the hadal zone
