Has Kemi ever met anyone she doesn't think she's infinitely brighter than?

One of the nice things about Christmas is that after a deluge of new books for the children there is a short break from reading the same book for the 50th time. A small thing that improves bedtime immeasurably.

Holy moly, silksong is good. Everytime I pick it up something interesting and surprising happens. Really does push beyond what hollow knight did.

That's exactly what it has meant for centuries. But more importantly perhaps if you're seeing an unknown masked militia bundle people to be detained in definitely in your own country pipe down about what's happening in others though?

Quite nice when there is so much unrelenting bleakness in the news everywhere of the joy a Hollow Knight Silksong release date is generating. Cute bugs for the win.

Exclusive: The billionaire developer closing London's pubs Companies linked to Asif Aziz have been buying up and shutting down some of the capital’s most beloved boozers. Now, we’ve mapped them.

Billionaire developer Asif Aziz is one of London's most powerful and influential landowners.

In my latest investigation for @londonermag.bsky.social I found out how he has brought and shut down dozens of London pubs for redevelopment.

Credits on blue prince last night. What a game. Perfectly balanced to make you feel smart for figuring things out while keeping you progressing. Will enjoy dipping back in to keep unravelling the mystery too.

It seems so typical of British politics (particularly in light of Canadian and now Australian elections) that after 14 years we get rid of rubbish right wing party for them simply to be replaced by an even worse even righter party. Can we not just have a break from the misery?

Well if literally nothing else Clair Obscur has one of the best in medias res openings I've played in a very long time. High hopes for this one!

Man, even the score from Blue Prince is brilliant. I've been mainlining melancholy oboe all morning.

So let’s have a little look at the Right wing media feeding off its own ecosystem.

Here’s

claiming NET ZERO caused the Heathrow shut down, while sharing a Telegraph article that appears to back up his claim

Must be true then, right??

Gen Z doubts about democracy laid bare in β€˜worrying’ survey More than half believe the UK should be a dictatorship and there’s a stark gender divide over equality, research for Channel 4 shows

I think we should take this story from the Times today (and picked up by many other outlets) with an enormous pinch of salt for two reason (mini thread):

I'm enjoying Nine Sols but it really wouldn't be any worse if it were a teeny bit less hard (and frustrating).

One comparison I haven't seen with the US election is Tory 2019 election. Γ€ la Trump Boris remade the Cons in his image, built a wide but ultimately fragile electoral coalition while his mendacity was his downfall both practically and for his party in completely under-delivering on their promises.

I know everyone needs to cope in their own way but everyone claiming that last night's news means this or that for how labour will respond to domestic policy questions need to calm down. American and UK electorates are not the same!
