people who are interested in politics at the age of 20 should be black listed and banned from every party. It’s not healthy. You are only allowed to be regretfully paying attention to politics once you hit your thirties and realise the government has been screwing up for your entire adult life.

It's an artistic representation of a circulatory system walking through a kitchen, as drawn by Dave Gibbons and written about by Alan Moore. It happens a lot 'round here.

Happy There Is A Circulatory System Walking Through The Kitchen Day to all who celebrate.

WORD OF THE DAY.

Excellent.

To give up spreadsheets for forty days.

Seems petty but I strongly resent Truss turning up at the Cenotaph.

Quite apart from her appalling record on literally everything, she's gone full Twitter Fash and as such is the antithesis of everything my friends died for.

The one on 6Music was a remix.

JUST RAISE TAXES. MAKE AN ARGUMENT FOR SOLIDARITY AND SHARED SACRIFICE FOR ONCE

I don’t think it’s inappropriate to have some news stories about migration issues but it is very odd indeed for BBC 6 Music, a station essentially targeted at hipster leftie middle-aged people, to be majoring on asylum seeker stories as much as it does.

Possum looked into the mirror and scared itself.

Stupid waste of money. Stopping immigration is like stopping the drugs trade - you can’t! Instead of trying and failing over and over again, decriminalise and regulate. But that is far too intellectually challenging for politicians to grasp. We are led by morons and the morons who vote for them.

29 years ago today, Jamiroquai released the music video for 'Virtual Insanity'

Anyway, we need some joy, so here's the Egyptian foreign minister being given a Lego Pyramid by the Danish foreign minister.

I've been getting back into the Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy series after many years, and the most relatable part is how everyday objects like doors and elevators have been imbued with artificial intelligence and it just makes them obnoxious and frustrating to use and everyone hates it.

Want to feel old? This is what the vampires from Buffy the Vampire Slayer look like now.

Presumably followed by something by either Ezra Collective or Say She She, because that's how 6Music is now.

Only 29 asylum appeals have been made to the ECHR in the last 45 years you dimwit. For that non-existent benefit you would sacrifice the right to life, liberty, fair trial, freedom of expression, thought, religion, protection from torture, slavery, etc.
Fucking idiot.

Today's my 18 year anniversary at Manchester Royal. I've seen some stuff; met some incredible people and become a very different person to what I was at the start.

Asylum seekers, housed in hotels in Manchester, are reaching out in their own words to address the concerns of the local community.

Please take a minute to read their letter, & share it with the people in your life who need to hear the truth about the people they are protesting.

If you lose both legs, your BMI goes up.

I assumed it meant they hadn't lost their DM cherry.

A very offline cousin sent this to fam group chat. This story is breaking containment.

One for @quantick.bsky.social

What idiot called it ‘Storm Benjamin’ and not ‘It’s Raining Ben’?

I don't think enough people talk about how great BBC Bitesize is. Secondary school textbooks are now vanishingly rare and Bitesize content is (a) not in a terrible app, (b) engaging and interesting and easy to understand, and importantly (c) FREE. A properly great digital public good.

If Liverpool are going to lose, can we at least have a win for the Eagles? #GoBirds

The rules on what's a foul and what's a foul on Salah are absolutely miles apart aren't they? It's wild how much licence there is to just boot him when he's on the ball

Yet not a whisper about it on the BBC (radio) news.

A profanity guide from IMDB. All words are written in full, except hell which is censored to h-ll.

Why do IMDB only censor hell to 'h-ll'? When everything else is written in full?
