Chicago priest Fr. Larry Dowling describes procession to ICE facility: “No one had the courage to speak directly to us. No one from Homeland Security could stand in the presence of the Monstrance holding the Blessed Sacrament. No wonder. Evil is repelled, recoils in the presence of Christ.”

I hereby declare war on premature Christmassing.

Any shop caught doing this before 1st December must be shut down and turned into affordable housing.

Choose sanity. Vote Binface.

Absolute madness. As a millennial, I cannot condone this bizarre and outdated nonsense. Yes, technically a phone *could* be used to speak to people, in much the same way that a toaster *could* be used to prop open a door, but it's not its intended function.

My Year 6s claim they have to have smart phone to keep in contact with parents. When I suggested they could ring them on a brick phone they looked at me as if I lost my mind.

A bit of nostalgia for parents, children and teachers who remember the antics of Biff, Chip and Floppy. #Reading

Ever since I finished Question Time, Reform have massively been on the attack.

Including a rant from Richard Tice entirely designed to distract from Reform and Russia.

Everyone should know about Nathan Gill, the bribes from Russia and the link to Reform.

Really not good at all that the Christian Right feels emboldened enough to parade in Soho in paramilitary uniforms. www.thepinknews.com/2025/10/10/k...
