AOC on the Kennedy Center: The renaming is completely illegitimate. All they did was screw some nameplates onto the building. That’s coming right off. Enjoy your name on there for a year or two, but that’s getting ripped right out.

I look at a short list of all the things to look forwards to this year, then the litany of things to dread, the disasters, the flashpoints, the transnational crises that have grown inevitable, and I'm just saying: Sheep Detectives better be fucking amazing.

One of the most powerful things I ever heard from a victim of abuse was 'they only need to persuade other men they're not abusers, and they're all great at that'. It's why every woman sees luminous neon warning signs, and men don't see anything. The onus is on men to believe, look, see.

... and he'd have more money than he started with. That's the real dark art. His ex, MacKenzie Scott, got $38bn in the divorce. She's given away $19bn. Her current net worth is ... $32bn. Bezos makes c.$26m a day. He could burn a $1m *an hour*, and buy your house from just today's takings.

Weird and almost universal revisionism today. Even at the time, it was pretty clear that Mandelson wasn't appointed *despite* his dodgy links but *because* of them. Trump's Washington is a dirty swamp. Mandelson was deemed a man able to swim in it. This wasn't a secret. Everybody said it out loud.

One by one, Europeans mentioned in the Epstein files who still hold political office are beginning to resign or are being forced out of office. Meanwhile, ruled by an administration almost entirely made up of Epstein associates, the US carries on as if nothing really happened.

Reminder that "jaywalking" was literally made up by american car manufacturers to shift the blame for accidents from drivers to pedestrians. "Jay" was a slang term meaning "idiot" or "rube".

1. Cold Fusion - Lance Parkin: The best VNA and best VMA at the same time, as these stories collide in the best way. Parkin deftly handles complex time travel, gallifreyian history, a huge host of characters, fun concepts and an assortment of ideas without ever losing track. A true masterpiece.

2. The Dying Days - Lance Parkin: A marvellous end to the Doctor's adventures with the VNAs and definitely the most thrilling. In the old who tradition of taking disperate elements to make something new, this is War of the Worlds meets House of Cards, and surprisingly enjoyable for it.

It is the feast day of Brigid of Kildare. One of her miracles was that she touched a pregnant nun and the foetus vanished. The patron saint of retcons and frantic footnotes, the Catholic Encyclopedia concludes Irish people are liars, so it's probably that.
