Charitably it might have been a joke.

BBC Radio 4 Extra - Alan Garner - The Weirdstone of Brisingamen - Episode guide All episodes of Alan Garner - The Weirdstone of Brisingamen

Radio 4 adapted The Weirdstone of Brisingamen awhile ago

I’d love a film or TV adaptation. Although the adaptation of my other child hood faves The Crystal Cave and The Dark is Rising were really very poor

Dog ownership seems like a good criteria to me. We can rule out Kristi Noem from any leadership position on that basis.

If only there was some sort of precedent for a UK party massively losing an election, going more extreme and remaining out of power until they shift back to the centre.

Taro on Brewer Street is a reliably good Japanese place.

Surely this intro was sarcasm?

Forensic analysis of objective video evidence. This is how you serve readers searching for clarity.

Now that’s a headline

It’s been available in the UK for a while, but only privately -my daughter had it 10 years ago. It’s only now being made available on the NHS as part of the standard set of vaccinations children here get.

Cover of "I want my hat back", starring Marvel's Thor

Thor saying "my hat is gone. I want it back."

Thor saying "have you seen my hat?"; iron fist saying "no, I haven't seen your hat"; Thor saying "ok. Thank you anyway"

Thor asking Elektra "have you seen my hat?". Elektra saying "no, I've not seen any hats around here." Thor saying "OK. Thank you anyway"

I mean I think it’s pretty likely is he is that unpopular. He lost two elections.

I’ve heard a rumour that Joey Barton is in line for the next FIFA peace prize.*

I’m 53 I learned nothing about the slave trade. My 13 year old has been taught about it in both primary and high school. I was pleasantly surprised.

I agree that we shouldn’t be selling weapons to Israel at the moment.

Look at the homes, schools and hospitals in Ukraine and Palestine. Sadly we need weapons to deter aggression so we can build a good society for everyone.

I realise you probably have to deal with far more of this stuff than I can imagine. You shouldn’t have to and I am very sorry you have to receive this hate. I appreciate you sharing it and making it more visible.

Inevitably my eyes rolled a full 360 when I read the headline.

Disney’s Message To Employees: Shut Your Trap

Awesome opening to tonight's The Late Show with Stephen Colbert... youtu.be/HMGD1KCYFOw

This is my flag.

So to claim refugee status in the UK, you have to slay a dragon or would that just get you points in an Australian like system?

Who Owns England by Guy Shrubsole is a really good book about inequality of land ownership in England.

Good morning BlueSky

I’ve heard real parents use poonami. Our preferred term was poomageddon.
