"Emergency podcasts, sir. Thousands of 'em"

This morning I had basque cheesecake in the place they invented it, in San Sebastián. It was, as they say, muy deliciosa. At least we think so. It may be muy delicioso.

A bottle of table wine in the small Coop of La Rochelle is €2.50

Want to run a fake London estate agency and repeatedly scam people out of thousands of pounds through rental scams? The good news is that for £250 you can join all the official renters' protection schemes and do it with a UK government badge of approval! www.londoncentric.media/p/london-ren...

Lisa Nandy clearing her desk in hope of a new job and discovering a weird wired basket with INTRAY written on it. What's this she thinks and starts to read the papers inside it...

22 years ago today I released Salad Fingers.

Just shouted out load “Harry Kane you dreamboat”

Dodgy shops on your local high street? They're still paying rent. And what if they're actually *pricing out* the legitimate cafes, restaurants, thanks to the option of "simply not paying your taxes" and therefore having more budget to pay landlords. www.londoncentric.media/p/who-wants-...

Do you think one of the boys is in the dressing room secretly texting Gareth Southgate being like “new stepdad’s shouting at us”.

Today I am a Students' Union CEO without any officers and it's quite odd.

As Dov notes in this excellent thread, this is a cross-party, pan-UK failure, BUT: in particular one of the things I will never understand about Keir Starmer is that he did nothing on this. They literally organised an arson attack on *his house*! Members of his family live there!

She wanted to be in this war and argued that the only reason Keir Starmer didn't want to is that he was in hoc to British Muslims. Not a serious person.

Chat, are we chitting?

Huh Burnham didn’t pledge to harvest and sell the organs of Lononders

Somewhere in Bradford there is an ice cream van that plays the Match of the Day theme tune, and this week I desperately want to find it

Sky reporting that Abby Tomlinson was in the car with Andy Burnham leaving Euston. Quite the ascent for the creator of Milifandom in 2015

BREAKING - Wes Streeting will not stand in a leadership contest. It's over.

Me at conferences

So how did we get here, with Starmer on the way out after two years? To some extent, it does go back to the beginning. It was not an enthusiastic victory for Labour. Getting rid of the Tories was the top reason people voted for them in 2024, though with their message of 'Change' also resonating.

In addition, one for the “banning anonymity would make social media less toxic” crowd to ponder. These are all adults posting under their own names!

Good to see Toy Story 5 providing the critically underrepresented horse girl community a new icon

I love this kid vomiting up FIFA

It’s probably for the best that I’m moving up to Leeds again rather than staying in Bradford hotels and Airbnb’s three days a week every week

That was very enjoyable

Radio 4 to end The World Tonight

I that the place I’m staying at needs to tell me that illegal activities are not allowed in the property. Unlike other properties.

This is the perfect Kemi Badenoch line: obviously crazy, coarsens our politics and the kind of thing that collapses if she ever put herself somewhere she might face a gentle follow-up question. What does she think the Gestapo *did*?

Glad to see John Cena has found work managing the Belgian men’s football team

Good afternoon from the London College of Fashion

Burnham is visibly not across the detail of what the Starmer government has actually done in office which is going to make his first months in office absolutely crackers.

I’m bad enough at job interviews, I don’t also need to be rejected from multiple house rental applications with zero feedback on why

Why is The World At One reading out Rupert Lowe's posts on the Northern Ireland attack, at the start of the bulletin? He leads a party that is polling at about 3%. This is not about "censorship": it's about the choices media outlets make concerning which voices to amplify.

Soon, Britain will see its first proper wave of private renters reaching retirement age, as they weren’t able to buy while working, and the results of this may be cataclysmic ✏️ @youngvulgarian.marieleconte.com

House rental search anecdote. We're being active encouraged to apply and use the "No Deposit Scheme" which costs £35 a month which you don't get back instead of a deposit up front which you do get back.

Backrooms was the most tedious thing I’ve watched since Star Wars Episode 9. Obsession is *brilliant* though.

Points failure, and in this case points do NOT mean prizes

I’m not entirely sure how Dominic Cummings remained someone to be taken seriously by certain corners of the internet after being bodied this hard by the *Daily Star* six years ago

Not the point I know, but where are Buzzballs 99p? www.theguardian.com/society/2026...

Today I was so bad at Mario I made a small child explode in fury
