Best football stat of the season:

Only three players touched the ball fewer times in the first half than Joshua Zirkzee (16) and one of them played nine minutes and another was sent off for hitting their team-mate.

However bad your day is looking, at least you haven’t woken up today to be reminded by the internet of that time eight years ago when you completely imagined a terrorist attack in Selfridges.

Too. Many. Books?

That’s not a term I’m familiar with.
Twitter accounts are based in Russia. BlueSky accounts are based in homes with, frankly, too many books, plants, obsolete cables, and pieces of rustic pottery, that could do with a bit of a tidying up, to be honest.

Saw the second Wicked movie earlier, and the standout performance is unquestionably that of Ariana Grande’s eyelashes, which in the sequel seem to occupy about 40% of every scene that she’s in.

Of all the unexpected wins in our species’ history, just imagine for a moment being the human who thought that they’d overcooked the bread, only to discover seconds later that they’d accidentally invented toast.
