I picked up a copy of the collected letters of JRR Tolkien for reasons, and this is the most bullshit table of contents I've ever seen. I'm actively angry that it exists
Contents

Introduction - vii

Foreword to the Revised and Expanded Edition - xi

Letters of J.R.R. Tolkien - 1

Notes - 607

Index - 637

This is the letter kids got at the end of Dolly’s Imagination Library. I defy you to read this and not cry.
Sorry, I can’t type that.

And the man at the back said, "Everyone attack!” and it turned into a ballroom grift. And the girl in the corner said, "Boy, I wanna warn ya, it'll turn into a ballroom grift."

Do we still need stories about an aspirational immigrant who's so devoted to his adopted country that he regularly puts himself in danger to help even those who fear and distrust him, and who's primary antagonist is an egotistical tech billionaire? Yes, fucking obviously. You numpties.

It's one year since Chris Sutton was asked if Mbappe would be able to play with his broken nose in the Euros and he wrote the funniest thing I've ever read.
We are waiting to see if Kylian Mbappe plays with his broken nose. I am no medical expert - I can't be an expert at everything - but my diagnosis is that it probably comes down to how sore it is.
Patrick Vieira broke my nose once - he elbowed me off the ball at a corner when I was playing for Blackburn in 1998. I went down and when I looked up he was laughing at me while my eyes were pouring with water.
Then I tried to take retribution by going in two-footed on him, missed... and got a straight red card. As I got up, I saw the ref waving the red card at me and Emmanuel Petit pushed me over and I landed on my nose again. It was a terrible few minutes for me.
I reckon I would have been able to play with my broken nose, but not that particular day because I was sent off.

Not a single word of this prepared me for the next one.
Tweet from @POOPSCRUFFIN4U:
Learned today that my ex-husband buys his weed  from a lesbian dominatrix that banned him from DJing at her sex club because he kept playing his version of "Lean on Me" made entirely of samples of Homer saying "d'oh".

Hard to believe that just a little over 6,000 years ago, I set out from my tiny childhood home with only the clothes on my back and the dream of becoming immortal.

Fifa bid reviewers have given Saudi Arabia 2034 the "highest ever evaluation score" even though they don't even yet know when the World Cup will be played and the report references 40-degree summer heat (and cities suggested aren't yet built, let alone stadiums).
