Shoutout to whoever made the Villababies account on toktik, i was highly amused by these despite my make everyone a baby fad fatigue. 😂

I feel a blog coming on, on the teaching of writing. I can't quite believe how the chunking up of writing into separate components has been taking hold, as if writing is something entirely different from & disconnected from thoughts. So 'the sentence' is taught as a thing 1/

This really is brilliant

Spoilers is now open in Digbeth. If you like cult movies and rock music this might be for you. Also… roof terrace💋

Great piece.

Doctor Who is just so good again. First time in years I’ve not been able to wait for the next ep. The newspaper “woke” commentary is pathetic.

God I hope so. More Labour ‘doing Labourly things’ please.

Luke Tryl would add: Reform v Labour - 70s welfare state v 21st century welfare state Labour/Greens/Lib Dem/Nationalists v Tories/Reform - open v closed

Jenrick may not be the best messenger, but the left would be foolish to act as though stuff like routine fare-dodging is a total non-issue. Rightly or wrongly, the more universal that sort of behaviour is, the more rule- and law-abiding people feel as though society is broken.

Ironic. ‘Immigration minister Robert Jenrick banned from driving for six months for speeding | Politics News | Sky News’ news.sky.com/story/immigrat…

If Reform win power and implement a British version of "DOGE", it'll be just as much a corrupt, chaotic techbro shitshow as the original. But the underlying fallacy is a lot older than Muskism: the very idea that a large proportion of government spending is "waste" or "fraud".

Starmer is correct. We can't tax our way to growth. But we can *tax reform* our way to growth. Some ideas:
