@GazTheJourno @Hush_Kit Or a big gun. The Hurricane IID had two 40mm cannons slung under the wings.

@MattDupuy @Hush_Kit Beaufighter I'm thinking. Would have to be a rocket-fitted aircraft operating over land and the RAF didn't have so many of those.

Quiz question: After the Typhoon and Hurricane, what was the best British tankbuster?

@Hush_Kit Beaufighter?

@Hush_Kit Hmm... Mosquito?

@depthsofwiki A club named after a pair of lovers from ancient myth and Shakespeare. Absolutely does not go where you're expecting it to. en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pyramus_a…

Keep a close eye on this absolutely not happening.

My latest cartoon for @newscientist

So a magician is an expert in magic, a politician is an expert in politics and a mathematician is an expert in mathematics. I am guessing Titian must have had quite the career change before becoming a painter

@arachthiot @jamiesmart He was there when he knew he shouldn't have been. He knew the parties were happening as they were happening in his house. He did nothing to stop them and in fact encouraged them by, for example, compering a quiz. Also, he pled guilty. Which rather suggests he was guilty.

Every time the tories try and dismiss Partygate I get angry all over again.

@MarshallCohen Chris Gober, from the famous legal firm Gober & Hutz.

from Philly courtroom — Musk lawyer says his $1m giveaway is NOT a lottery. "There is no prize to be won" and winners "are not chosen at random," Musk lawyer Chris Gober said. Instead, the $1m is a salary they "earn" to be a spokesperson for Musk's pro-Trump super PAC. Winners are picked based on their "suitability to serve" and their personal story, Gober said. In response, Philly DA team called this a "complete admission of liability" that Musk is running an illegal lottery under PA law. Remember: When Musk announced the giveaway.... in PA nonetheless.... he said, "we are going to be awarding $1 million randomly." DA showed this in court to the judge. Gober argued there's a difference between "randomly" and "by chance," which is why he argued that this isn't an illegal lottery under PA gaming laws.

@BaA43A3aHY Back when America really was the global technological and manufacturing leader.

Convair B-58 Нustlеr🧵 The B-58 was the most technologically advanced aircraft of its time. A Mach 2, wasp-waisted war chariot, drawn by four J79s, including silver brazed stainless steel honeycomb panels in its design. But before getting into the technical stuff, some context.

@shit_rock Bizarrely enough, I am wearing the "deliberately good" one right now.

hey party people- some marketing help please. going to print 2 old shirts for the upcoming fotl shows (and to sell in a fury on bandcamp). pretty sure we'll go for the satan shirt, we get asked about that all the time, but which of the other designs would you capitalism all over?

@RaVe_74 God, he is good, isn't he?

@ThraXtonius Into the TARDIS, by the look of it. Looking good, my man.

.@Schwarzenegger just endorsed #HarrisWalz. Who does Trump have? Steven Seagal.

@HeatherDeLand And with bears, they're so dopey and bumbling (until they're really not) that I always imagine them humming tunelessly to themselves while they do their dopey bear stuff

@MattDupuy jerk!! She even looked around. She knew what she was doing. Furtiveness is indicative of guilt.

He must have expected to get kicked right up in the fucking air at any one turn. And it's the England defenders fault that no-one thought of doing just that.
