This man wouldn’t need to shoot anyone, one look from him and most of us would just melt into a puddle on the floor
It’s the 111th anniversary today of the birth of Harry Rée, who was a teacher and conscientious objector when the Second World War broke out, and by the time it ended, when he was 31, had invented ‘blackmail sabotage’ and got a DSO, an OBE, a Croix de Guerre, and a Medaille de la Resistance

This is painfully reminding me of Liz Truss
She's a self-confessed "girlie swot" who is now one of the most powerful women in the country, and all eyes are upon her ahead of the Autumn Budget.

‘Every now and then, I get a little bit angry and I know I've got to get out and cry’

(turn around)

‘Every now and then, I get a little bit terrified but then I see the look in your eyes’

(turn around, bright eyes)

‘Every now and then, I fall apart!’

'Watson!' Exclaimed Holmes, his voice crackling with urgency. 'We must move quickly if we are to prevent that devilishly cunning Professor Moriarty from making good his escape'.

Vague memories of being bored by film adaptions of E.M. Forster’s other books left me unprepared for just how funny ‘Maurice’ is. Listening to the Peter Firth audiobook while I was working this morning and burst out laughing a few times.

My morning’s work at the allotment, to misquote Ian Malcolm, was one big pile of shit.

Producer: [talking about a young Giancarlo Esposito] So this black character's only dialogue is...

A gesticulating Stephen King: 'Yo mama!'

Producer: And then he...

SK: Steals money!

Just waved at a random guy on the opposite metro platform, who looked *exactly* like my friend Andy when he was staring down at his phone, and almost nothing like him when he looking up

the current default kite-flying, test-the-water model of off-record briefings to the media needs to end except for public interest whistleblowing. the toll on our collective psyche & comprehension of what is and is not real amounts to gaslighting and should be considered misconduct in public office
If it was suggested that we steal people's jewellery to 'pay for the asylum process' they can't just say 'okay fine, we won't do that, then' and pretend like it never happened.
It's like suggesting you could kill the family dog with a shovel because it's chewing the furniture. That gets remembered.
