The Jarrow March began #OTD in 1936, when 200 unemployed men set off from the northeast English town of Jarrow to march nearly 300 miles to London. Protesters sought to draw government attention to extreme poverty and a staggering 70–80% unemployment rate. youtu.be/198t_7lOjpg?...

Verity may not ascend to the pantheon of classic psychological thrillers, & its lead protagonist often feels emotionally half-asleep, but Hartnett’s turn and the unresolved battle between two conflicting truths keep this sordid tale well worth the ride #FilmSky www.thefourthwall.xyz/post/fiction...

#OTD in 1965, in the US, The Beatles were at #1 with “Yesterday". It is incredible to think that a song that started out with the placeholder lyrics "Scrambled Eggs, oh my baby how I love your legs" went on to become the most covered song in music history.

Totally useless ban. Nearly got run over by a man, I'd say mid forties on the footpath (illegal), on an e-scooter with a seat (illegal), no hi viz vest (illegal) and no helmet (illegal) What is the point 🤷‍♀️ www.rte.ie/news/ireland...
