Bank robber describes getting caught robbing banks as "one of the most difficult moments" in his career of bank robbery.

I don't deserve this. It's a Notts championship year, I don't deserve this too, oh no this would be my fault

Dear Lord.

What? Oh, you know, not much. It's fine, everything's fine.

I just think it's nice that Audie Murphy's still dating.

Sadly I do not have Marlins Man ticket money. (I've seen him do this at hockey games too.)

TBF I've also seen UK leftwing folks parrot Fox News talking points about places like San Francisco. One man's hard truths to people who don't want to hear it is another man's rightwing boilerplate.

There are obviously global trends driving this as well. But in Britain, Brexit remains part of the story of why things are more expensive than they used to be.

Which was not the article I was criticising.

Of course it's not the sole reason. But it's big enough to at least warrant a single mention.

This is good, but I'm curious: is nobody allowed to mention Brexit anymore? It seems strange that a piece purporting to explain why everything keeps getting more expensive would not include the word even once. (It might also help explain why a "Let's Brexit even harder!" party is so popular now.)

Tonight in sport: Stu v European football's most notoriously hard-to-find goal.

I presume there's wanton fornication in the streets of West Bridgford by now. Or, you know, more wanton than usual.

Huzzah.

I think the thing I hate most about the term "bad light" is that it's gaslighting light. The light is not bad. All light is content-neutral. Granted, "insufficient ability to deal with perfectly normal light that's less bright than it might otherwise be" isn't as pithy, but still.

Mandelson writing to Epstein that his initial legal troubles "just could not happen in Britain" has got to be this year's True, But Maybe Not In the Way You Were Thinking winner.

This feels real because an Anglophile American would be polite enough to imply there are Worcs cricketers who aren't obscure.

Ah, the Dragon. The outstanding landlady's (optimistic) 3-months-a-year beer garden instantly became a 12-month, all-weather one. Fantastic for business.

Reform local media ban is a glimpse of what may happen with Farage in power As Nigel Farage prepares to attack the state of free speech in the UK in front of a congressional committee in Washington DC, The Independent’s political editor David Maddox discusses Reform’s attitude to a free press

I guess technically an entire expletive county council isn't an "event," so ... www.the-independent.com/news/uk/poli...

If you're unfamiliar with Jared Moskowitz, he's got something of the Australian slip fielder who literally never shuts up about him, and it's fantastic.

NOTTINGHAM HAS ENTERED THE GODDAMN CHAT.

Hank Johnson here, hitting Nigel with a little Your Ground's Too Big For You.

Gotta admit, Nige has a point here. If I turn up at Heathrow and start suggesting people beat up other people in toilets, I could be in for a rough ride.

Just spitballing here, but somebody should find out if this man's home country has a national broadcaster of some sort that employs somebody who could ask him questions along these lines.

It's also got a cavalcade of Republicans being as awful as you'd expect, but Democrats on the US House Judiciary Committee are turning this into The Roast of Nigel Farage, and that is glorious.

Very concerned with which toilets the Spirit of Cricket was using.

The wildest fetish of all.

And Leics only if someone's got one of those extreme humiliation kinks.
