Can you all please be especially gentle with middle-aged people in the next few days, as we're all trying to process the idea that 2015 now counts as "the old times".

The difficulty with being a Truss tribute act is there's so little original material in the short career. Like trying to be a tribute to a Dr & The Medics, there was only one hit and it was a novelty cover version.

"Labour Liz Truss" sounds like a crap tribute act, like "the Stoke Roses" or "Yeovil Pink Floyd".

I think it's time for Schumer to go. All he seems to do is provoke hundreds of Americans to write angry messages I have to wade through every day, there's nothing I can do about them and it's really boring, so he'll just have to go.

Shriver gives this interview from her Lisbon home, where she is, unsurprisingly, an immigrant. But by only demonising Black and brown people, in fiction guaranteed to stir up hate, she is blissfully unaware of her own contradictions.

Ok so who's going to play Starmer in the TV drama. I reckon Branagh. Yeah he played Johnson already but that's why it works.

When the Germans invaded Poland on 1st September 1939, the Polish Air Force relied on three main types. These were: the PZL P.11 fighter, the PZL.23 Karaś light bomber and the PZL.37 Łoś medium bomber. Contrary to popular belief, most of these aircraft survived the initial Luftwaffe attack. 🧵1/9

Gove forever plays the awfully polite gentleman who entertains this sh!t, but he never really knocks it down. Because that would be impolite. This is just another reason why the hard right is running rampant through Conservatism.

While reporting this, I had something happen that's never happened. A comms rep for one of the co's disputed my reporting and said what I was telling them was untrue because it was not in Grok, xAI's chatbot. I was looking directly at the files. And this person was using AI to challenge the truth.

You know the Labour Party has entered one of its periodic fits of deep collective stupidity when the idea emerges they should be led by a soldier because Real People (i.e., people who hate the Labour Party) love a soldier, and, er, we need some discipline, or something.
