Every time I see a serial killer tv show advertised I think of this

My dad used to work with Ted Bundy at the University of Utah and every Friday my dad would say, "See ya Monday-Bundy" and I can't imagine how much Ted actually thought about murdering him for
it.

With respect to Andy Burnham you don't get to choose not to be the last prime minister of the uk. It's the same rules as duck, duck, goose.

It really gives the game away when the anti trans orgs are calling the election of the neo nazi party in Germany a "glimmer of hope."

This is only true if they only build *a few* nuclear submarines. Flood the market and the price would drop significantly - that's basic supply and demand economics - allowing us to all own a nuclear submarine.

People will dismiss Malcolm Offord claiming that more than half of Scots are unemployed, but as the parent of a child out of work I really think it's serious. My daughter's been unemployed for almost three years and it's been really hard. There are so many barriers for toddlers getting into work!

As far as violence against women and girls is concerned, the Programme for Government amounts to the misogyny bill they refused to do last session, a public health campaign, and support services being told to wait until Budget time to see what apparent funding commitments look like in reality.

Visiting Srebrenica was one of the defining moments of my life. It’s a strange thing today to see all the celebrations over the death of Mladic while the world is still, largely, turning a blind eye to genocide.

There's a tv show where they say they "make the impossible possible". Unfortunately the two year old has got this mixed up and started pleasantly announcing "its time to make the possible impossible!" Seems oddly apt.

I'd say "contactless payments come to America" has the potential to be about three days of transatlantic bluesky content, possibly taking in US aversion to automatic speed cameras and something about food consumption.

Was starting to get slightly grumpy at the fringe tourists earlier, till a wee boy on the bus saw Arthur's Seat and just lost his mind completely. "MUM WHAT IS THAT??" "It's a hill I think" "It's a MOUNTAIN!!" "OK, it's a mountain" "WHY IS THERE A MOUNTAIN??" Yes, indeed, why is there a mountain???

I refused to meet up with any of the couples from our NCT class afterwards & to be honest it's one of my greatest parenting regrets. I'd love to track how they are now - the guy who wanted to ban his partner from painkillers, the woman who used 'gaming' as her solution to everything, they were awful

It’s the 88th anniversary today of this immensely enjoyable headline 🧵

12 boys rout fascists
Twelve boys, some of them less than 10 years old, went to Weymouth beach and barracked Mr Robert Saunders, a Fascist speaker.
He ignored them, so they went away and returned with toffee tins half filled with stones.
Using the tins as rattles, they made so much noise that Mr Arthur England, a 63-year-old Weymouth magistrate and superintendent of the beach, approached to stop them.
A crowd of holiday-makers, sympathising with the children, booed Mr England and a sock filled with sand caught him behind the ear.
In the sand battle that followed, the Fascists were pelted off the beach.
About 5,000 people followed them to their car, overturned the trailer attached it, and filled the loud speaker equipment with sand.

I've mostly avoided Rod Liddle pieces but this is good on the ineffable sadness of watching people you care about, and the world at large, change into something you no longer recognise. www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

A man who prized blunt speaking has been selectively eulogised. There’s a balance between decency and honesty: I’m sad he caused such harm, says Guardian columnist Zoe Williams

I know this won't happen but imagine if someone wrote an honest, impartial obituary of Rod Liddle. From CND and the Labour Party to his time at R4 and Gilligan, winning awards for exposing the sale of landmines, to being arrested for attacking his pregnant partner and the weird, creepy columns.

My partner and I have decided to get married and I've put our two year old in charge of planning. So far she has approached every adult at her nursery to tell them about the wedding and that they will not be allowed to come, declared the theme to be 'scarecrow', and invited 60 large, wild geese.

If Andy Burnham wants to end rough sleeping he will need to change his approach to No Recourse to Public Funds, which enforces destitution, and is the single biggest cause of rough sleeping (in Scotland, anyway). But that would seem at odds with his support for the asylum bill last week.
