Do you like cat photos? Are you constantly distracted? You’re probably actually quite good at focussing: 10 myths about attention Every second, 11m bits of information enter our brains, which then efficiently prioritise them. We need to learn to work with the process, rather than against it

Urgh Ed Balls and George Osborne

Urgh Ed Balls and George Osborne

The chumminess of former politicians who are meant to have opposing views but really stand in the same queue for TV presenting jobs and reality shows before being asked to front fucking news shows and mags

This government couldn't put their socks on in the morning without somehow finding a new and surprising way to be colossally terrible.

I put it to you that Paul McCartney’s β€œWonderful Christmastime” is not merely the worst Christmas song but is also in fact the worst song in the history of recorded sound.

Ffs can you stop peddling the myth that assylum seekers are living in luxury in hotel. - the truth is these hotels are squalid. Your job should be to challenge that view and stop giving it legitimacy

Here's another bit of conventional wisdom Zohran completely blew away: His speech was at well above a 10th-grade level. It was complex, erudite, punctuated by deep and fluent references. You don't have to condescend to voters with baby talk! Part of re-establishing norms is speaking like an adult.

Honestly TELL THE STORY. Won’t someone just tell the fucking story of how Brexit created this economic hardship, how a Muslim immigrant just saved the lives of those commuters on that train, won’t someone in politics or even media just connect the fucking dots and TELL THE STORY. IT’S RIGHT THERE

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.

Dr. Jane Goodall filmed an interview with Netflix in March 2025 that she understood would only be released after her death.

Hi Internet! I'm Drew and THIS IS MY FACE.

If this GIF has ever brought you joy in the past, I humbly ask you to consider making a donation to the National MS Society. It would mean a lot to me and to those I know affected by the disease!

Have you read Katy Brand’s β€˜I carried a watermelon’? Re-reading it at the moment. She goes to actual Kellerman’s!

Just wanted to mention we had a lovely time! The person who served us was so friendly and kind, the drinks were great and we loved the garden. Nice loos! A beautiful place all round.

Anyone who doesn't acknowledge the urgency of poverty, climate collapse, human rights, counterinsurgency, and tries to WhatAbout Zack isn't really interested in making things better

Transphobia - whether from the right or left and whether disguised as feminist or not - will always close down the field of what is acceptable for women and girls. So-called bio essentialism always leads to the boxing in of options for women and girls.

As a feminist I cannot understand why people who call themselves feminist are against transrights. It takes nothing away from us. We are stronger together. Patriarchy is the only thing that benefits from this.
