The Sears Tower looking insanely creepy during a blackout, including the impression of a scary face topped by a crown of spikes. It looks like a giant humanoid evil robot or a demonic Minecraft creature.

"Is Britain about to blow?" asks Matt Goodwin promoted a two hour special event on the subject.

Their greasy desperation for violence and carnage, so they can profit off it, is so disgusting.

English devolution is a great idea in principle, until you remember that every town has a 500 year long grudge with the next town over.

I do suspect that part of the government's motivation for keeping the secret Afghan resettlement scheme under wraps was to keep immigration lawyers well away from it all, so that poor decisions could go unchallenged

Not really an overstatement to say that the test of a free society is whether or not comedians can make fun of the country's leader on TV without repurcussions.

What I understand about Brexit is that everything we had as our opt outs are what people wanted and we voted to bin them, then everything we had they wanted us to negotiate having which was never going to happen. The only consistent thing is what we had is what people have always wanted all along

People who were OUTRAGED by the sentence which Lucy Connolly received, are DEMANDING that Bob Vylan and the BBC are treated far more harshly.

Yet another one to add to the free speech hypocrisy/incoherence library.

PANEL 1: A person looks with a confused expression at a computer, with an arrow reading "easily verifiable information" pointing at it.
PANEL 2: They lean over their shoulder and ask "Grug, is this real?" to somebody off screen.
PANEL 3: Zoomed out, and we see they were talking to a stereotypical caveman, standing right behind them, also looking at the computer.
PANEL 4: We cut to the caveman beating the absolute brakes off the guy repeatedly with a club, blood and chunks shooting all over the place.

Tweet from @tomgara

Randomly on this subject, my (Egyptian) wife had never heard of Stonehenge when I mentioned it recently, so I showed her photos of it, assuming she’d recognise the look but not the name etc, and she was just like, this is pathetic, your ancestors were small and weak

So this is the legacy of Old Etonian Boris Johnson, Old Alleynian Nigel Farage, Old Gordonian Michael Gove, Old Leodiensian Matthew Elliott, and Old Dunelmian Dominic Cummings....

This is everywhere.

Every academic institution I know is held together by some exhausted woman in her early 40's who waits until the old white male professors have finished their vague rants and says, "alright, so concretely can I propose the following next steps..."

She makes half their salary.
