If you don’t want to read Mary Shelley’s Frankenstein together by candlelight whilst sharing dark chocolate and a vintage bottle of Château Margaux in an abandoned castle on the Irish coast during a full moon, then please don’t tell me you’re “down for a good time.”

Jacob Rees-Mogg like Rishi Sunak has registered all his assets in tax havens, because they don't 'belong' to him in the UK they aren't taxed here.

So his tax bill is negligible, he doesn't need to leave to dodge tax.

This con needs to be stopped.

If the UK is on the brink of civil war, as Musk claims, it follows that in 300 years time there will be be a new generation of civil war re-enactment societies.

Holy shit, just learned about the typewriter art of Montserrat Alberich Escardívol, a Catalan typist. Using an extra wide typewriter and 180 color ribbons, she built up elaborate images from simple characters like 'm' and '.' and ';'. Here is her typewritten painting of the Cathedral of Barcelona.

Nigel Farage Says Minimum Wage Should Be Cut for Young People The Reform leader said cutting the minimum wage for young people would boost business, as he attacked plans to raise taxes on the wealthy

Nigel Farage, who has so far registered a total of £280,500 for four hours a month as a "brand ambassador" for a company selling gold bars, thinks a £10 an hour minimum wage for young people is too high bylinetimes.com/2025/11/03/n...

I am alarmed, but not because of your post. I've just been permanently alarmed since 2016.

Park Lane rough sleepers targeted by TfL in £113k crackdown Rough sleepers are told they will be removed and pointed toward Westminster Council's outreach teams.

Call me naive but why not, in partnership with housing charities or org, spend that money cracking down on the circumstances that made them homeless in the first place? That money could be spent accommodating people instead of dehumanising them

“You are fettered," said Scrooge, trembling. "Tell me why?"
"I wear the chain I forged in life," replied the Ghost. "I made it link by link, and yard by yard; I girded it on of my own free will, and of my own free will I wore it.”

Both the Conservative Party and the Labour Party are dying and the cause is the same.

They do what their billionaire donors want, and people don't want to vote for that.

The veneration of Books As Objects misses the point entirely. If you're reading a book, turn the corners down, break the spine, spill soup on it. It's your book, go nuts. A pristine, unread book is a tragedy in a way that a beloved, much-read book that looks like the dog's been at it could never be.
