Pitching a show idea: Boy George and Morrissey sharing a too-small flat in a shabby area of not London. The kicker: None of us has to watch, just enjoy the thought of the two of them stuck together.

So a battlefield first has just occurred that may not seem like much, but I believe will change how war is fought in the future… There is a small tendril of boggy land just south of Ochakiv in Ukraine called the Kinburn Spit, that until recently was occupied by a few miserable units of Russian

And my instinct is, if we reach a point where we need to demand-destroy 20% of the world's oil and liquid natural gas, that's going to be a much, much larger strategic effect than anything that happens in-region. The US's relationship with Israel will be a trivial piece of collateral damage.

Liberalism is an ideology of liberation - from caste, irrational tradition, ancient prejudice, and the eternal tendency of the powerful to abuse the powerless for their enrichment and pleasure. It’s an ideology worth fighting and dying on barricades for, and millions have. Don’t waste their lives

In 1943 it became fashion in Denmark to wear knitted/crocheted blue, white & red hats which resembled the Royal Air Force roundels, a subtle way to show everybody who's side they were on during the war. The Germans were not amused and banned them.
