The week’s half over, the school holidays are upon us, there’s a lot to be grateful for – like cooler weather (for now), the continued good health of Dolly Parton, and the fact that Donald Trump has left the country. That’s obviously not great if you’re American.
There’s also the good news that we’ve rounded up 25 funny things from Bluesky – which is more than enough of an excuse to get the kettle on and have a break while you read them. Show your favourites a bit of love.

LADS! I did it! I finally did it, and it was fucking glorious. On Sunday 20th July, I finally had a use for one of the hundreds of off-cuts of wood I’ve stored “just in case I need it” over the years! One down, a few hundred to go.
