It's played along for too many years funding the competition and wants some credit. Ratings. Fucking ratings. That's what Trump craves above all else and Hegseth will hands them to him like a special boy.

Slightly less glossy paper this month, but still not right. Newsprint used to the cheap option, I guess DMGT and the Murdoch papers have cornered the shrinking market. Viz should be on absorbent stock, not Izal.

Did @edinburghcouncil.bsky.social really need to close off parking in about eight streets in Leith for a whole week so that a handful of double yellows could be partially repainted? Does anyone ever check on the quality of contractors' work?

I feel like we should have stopped people using the word "hero" to refer to media stuff many years ago and questioned just how it betrayed a fondness for unbermensch among business types.

The experience of trans people in Britain is a glaring demonstration that taxonomical debates are never purely and simply that, but stop-gaps on a path to marginalisation and oppression. Anyone entertaining this stage will comply with what follows, so we might as well clarify what that is.

Lookit. Deep down every Irish person wants to spin some yank a yarn that gets cited as fact in some factual text. We told an Irish American girl that when the Muppets was released in Ireland, Kermit the Frog was called Dermot the Frog because Cromwell’s son was a Kermit.

I'm holding off on my lifelong hate for Jeffrey Archer, temporarily, until it is confirmed he did not die suspiciously. Because someone else might have written a story about that which his estate will want to turn, uncredited, into a series of novels.
