After condemning No10 for briefing against No10, No10 asked No10 to find out who in No10 was responsible, & has now confirmed that it was no one in No10.

Right now there’s an artificial bottleneck in English football - the EFL only allow two promotions from the National League. From within the EFL they allow four promotions from its own L2 to L1 - you can see the disparity. But can you explain it.

Finished 'An Englishman's Castle' (1978) last night – an alternative history drama set in England in which the Nazis won WWII. I really recommend it. Atrocious sound recording and some woodenness, but well worth a watch. Only 3 episodes. www.youtube.com/watch?v=PNfo... www.imdb.com/title/tt0077...

Was struggling to find a video on here of the BBC Panorama Trump speech splicing that has led to Tim Davie resigning, so here you go.

My son has declared that it's International Bouncy Day. So happy International Bouncy Day, to all who celebrate.

A key on my electric piano has been sticking for weeks, driving me mad. Been dreading opening it up and spending all day trying to fix it with YouTube videos. Lost my temper just now and gave it several whacks. I'm not condoning childish acts of anger, but it's only gone and bloody fixed it.

I am feeling immensely thick, but I don't really get what "turn the volume up" means here? Is it just cos Trump's old? Belter of a speech overall, though.

"Do you recognize that sandwich?" My sides

Pointless, spiteful piece in @thespectator1828.bsky.social, in which Tom Daley is called a "man-child" and "ageing starlet" with "wool in his brain". Meanwhile, journo Zoe Williams is a "privately educated performing flea". Why so angry about a knitting show? www.spectator.co.uk/article/the-...

I'm beginning to think you can't trust random videos on the internet

Shout out to the 2% of Americans who think writing a letter to an elected politician is unacceptable

Quite frankly, I think he should have the name "Andrew" taken off him as well. I know several thoroughly decent Andrews and he isn't deserving of the name. He doesn't need one does he? People could just point at him.

Few things make me wince more than an American trying to say "twat"

Israel PM Netanyahu orders military to immediately strike Gaza www.bbc.co.uk/news/live/c8...

Also: other allied projects of the Wikimedia Foundation are great too. Most people aren't really aware of Wikidata which is an increasingly useful resource with even greater potential.

I implore everyone to donate to Wikipedia. Just think how often you use it. It's packed with reliable information. It's run by passionate volunteers. There are no ads on it. It's free.

The hypocrisy of Reform going on TV to allege that certain groups are constantly over represented on TV is truly epic.

Why don't YOU fuck off to space, Bezos, you absolute joist

Rob Schneider was an animal. Then he was a woman. And now Rob Schneider is...

I've never watched The Prisoner (1967). Apparently there's much debate over the best way to watch it in, since the episodes were broadcast in a weird order due to production issues and stuff. Anyone have a preferred order they'd recommend?

"Hmm, what colour shall we make the important writing on our silver packaging? I know! A nice light unreadable white. And let's make sure it's absolutely tiny. Perfect!"

Well, I was completely oblivious to this rule.

Woah.

"change towards reality" Holy smokes, these people are insane.

Yikes @universitypress.cambridge.org, the way your examples are pulled in might need a look at! Seems it's only the Hansard sources that are squiffy in this one.

Mjallby (population 1,200) FC just won the Swedish league

Friends, to everyone who's stubbornly doing their thing and works towards peace - hang in there. We must remember there's a lot of us. We will manage. We know why we're doing it. As a Ukrainian poet once said, "Keep fighting, and you will overcome." May God help us.

I wish that what this absolute weapon 'thinks' didn't matter

No musician ever says of their famous song "yeah the lyrics took me *ages* to write"

Really good episode, this - well worth your time.

Discworld QOTD, from Feet of Clay

Boy am I glad I'm no longer dating.

Can anyone point me towards a good explainer about all the Chinese spying stuff - perhaps with big, bright pictures and simple, plonker-friendly words? Because this post resonates with me greatly; I don't understand what's going on.

Yes please, love it

I finally reached The Citadel in Silksong today, and I am as pleased as punch. What a hard but rewarding game.

What a mad world. 93% of the US stock market is owned by just 10% of the population. And they’re not just collecting wealth beyond the dreams of avarice - they’re collecting power, owning media, social media, buying politicians and policy. buff.ly/87x6thv

"Any honest writer,journalist,or historian in Russia must always be ready for prison" Russian food historian Pavel Syutkin was detained today on charges of allegedly spreading "false information about the army."Moscow's branch of the Investigative Committee said the reason was his posts on Telegram

Switching this concept around, but US press secretary Karoline Leavitt was born 11 days after South Park first aired. Her husband was 32.

"Lammy has a somewhat-chequered past," says squeaky-clean Jenrick. Oh, except: • unlawfully approving a luxury housing project for a pornographer friend • ordering that cartoons for unaccompanied asylum seeker's children be painted over • taking £75k from a shady firm in the British Virgin Islands

All members please spare just 2 minutes to see off the vandals (again).

Many people have to draft an apology form. Not me though, never doubted the power of idealistic girls hated by weird old men

My favourite haircut was when I went to the brilliantly-named Ryan Hair in Victoria and asked for a grade 0 all over, and the eastern European lady looked shocked and said "are you sure? You will look like egg."
