Comicsbeat editors had a staff meeting recently and we discussed what makes a good headline. I think this is an example we can all study. www.livescience.com/archaeology/...

Iron Maiden intensifies

look at that lad! Glorious

am sure this absolutely sucked to deal with but this also looks like the cover for a killer circa-2009 indie rock EP

Timeline cleanse: I went to Whitby and bought the best thing in the abbey gift shop

so I understand from America that the admiralty sent a message to the fleet "JIMMY IS BACK"

It's obviously true unless something unexpected happens, but a) the incumbent government needs to actually have *delivered for its coalition* to lead a republican front b) the leader needs to be a plausible leader of it and c) they do need to actually be able to say 'Vichy was bad'.

Retrospectively removing indefinite leave to remain would be immoral and economically damaging. It would tear families apart. Attacking it as ‘potentially illegal’ is completely beside the point. Argue with the (awful) idea. Don’t try ’well, actually you can’t do that’.

The annoying leftie posters were right, 'Dubai is just a normal fun holiday destination' really was a warning sign of fascism all along

To remove indefinite leave to remain from people who already have it they'd have to dismantle our entire system of rights legislation and probably end judicial independence. But they could do that with a majority. They've said they'd do that.

This xenophobic nonsense illustrates why the government's proposals to restrict settlement rights is not only wrong but politically self-defeating. Has just encouraged Reform to become even more extreme.

Only the wealthy would get to have indefinite leave and if you want citizenship, you have to give up any other nationality (so if you're already on leave you might be discouraged from citizenship). Fuckers.

The purr-fect map

this whole thing is idiotic but it's particularly worth noting that Trump was kicked off social media platforms after Jan 6, *before Biden was president.*

I overhead a young boy educating his dad about how the Fireflash bore remarkable similarities to Concorde. Thunderbirds instils a fascination of aerospace engineering however old you are when you first watch it.

The fundimental issue with article has with the Lib Dems is, erm, that they're liberal

This is welcome (if infuriatingly late) but I think credit has to go to Ed Davey for nailing the Lib Dems colours to the mast as against racism, ethnonationalism and violence on *the day of* the far right march and with the open letter days later Davey set the bar that showed up Starmers silence

Maybe - just a crazy idea, but bear with me for a moment! - the reason why the Lib Dems should not “get serious“ is that the UK’s most important media organisation covers politics in babytalk so much of the time?

Harry’s been put away for twenty years in a space prison! Nobody ever escapes the brutal jail - but Harry is determined to be the first… It’s Harry Twenty on the High Rock, by Gerry Finley-Day and Alan Davis >>>>

I believe @benansell.bsky.social calls this the Fuck Around, and Find Out era of politics. One of my core arguements (which i really must write up) is that democracy/social democracies success is the seed of its failure by creating a significant class of people who are insulated from politics

suddenly hit by the thought, Invincible but instead of doing Son of Superman it had been Son of Doctor Who and an expy Third Doctor exiled on Earth (and marrying Liz Shaw) turned out to be evil. (Donald is Sgt Benton)

We *really* need to reinstall moral virtue on the right. Even if you dont think the Tate's are criminals, their wider (admitted and celebrated) treatment and attitude towards women is utterly reprehensible. They are scum and the modern right is trying to rehabilitate them.

It feels surreal seeing "When Winter Comes" (a novella I wrote basically at the start of my "career", so to speak) finally see the light of day after all these years – please go check it out along with Dread Mnemosyne!

please Quilli let me say it's Ro-Jaws you know it's Ro-Jaws no Quilli DON'T AAAAAA
