Claire has definitely read the Bible.🤔

Why does anyone take this skidmark seriously > Simon Schama
Maybe he was too stupid to spot that it's a fake but why has he left it up despite everyone pointing out that it's fake?🤔

Semley Auctioneers a collection originally sold off, of course, piecemeal by the Blackshirt grandson of Augustus Pitt-Rivers, and his fascist girlfriend

remarkable that in 2024 Semley Auctioneers would offer these skulls for sale to the highest bidder in this manner — profiting through their commission on the sale of human remains

Twenty (20) ancient Egyptian human skulls from the second Pitt Rivers collection are up for auction in Dorset

a grim reminder that it’s still possible for people (and auction houses) to profit from selling the body parts of African people in the UK today

Happy April 28 to all who celebrate!

Not a story I was familiar with.
Interesting. Give it a read.

Simon Jordan doesn't really think Salah is overrated. It's talksport; every morning the producer hands out the day's topics, along with good & idiotic positions that have to be taken, to stimulate debate. Just happens that Jordan drew the short straw today, rather than Agbonlahor

Eve Barlow, accusing others of - 'insufferable, bratty, narcissistic, self-aggrandizing bullshit' - absolutely beggars belief.

The best Earl Grey I've tasted. £4.50 for just 15 bags🤔 however, the only EG I've had made with actual bergamot oil rather than synthetic flavouring - cuz It takes 200kg of fruit to produce 1L oil, so largely prohibitive. Proper leaves used, not usual bag dust. Bag swells 150%.

Seinfeld was fucking rubbish, btw.

This was on BBC One in 1979. The idea that you'd get something like this (however milquetoast it might have been) on one of the main channels seems far-fetched these days

'Londonistan' is the same, not so thinly veiled, racist filth as when scumbags referred to New York as 'Jew York' for much of the 20th century - due to a rising Jewish population.

The Spectator magazine reporting on the raid on Freedom Press offices by Special Branch in 1945. I doubt the current incarnation editorial team would be as sympathetic.

There are two schools of thought🤔

The Liver bird.

History repeating...
