Brand new on Dirty Feed: having fallen in love with The Mary Tyler Moore Show last year, I should have written a piece saying exactly what makes the programme so special.

Instead, I've done something annoying about a reshoot for the first episode. Sorry.

Real pity there was no way of knowing at the time that handing a 'peace award' to a narcissistic, paedophile protecting, autocrat-in-waiting manbaby might not be the best idea.

Yes, but this map overlooks that they also captured The White House
Russians have now been mired in Ukraine longer than they spent fighting Nazis in WWII.
Russia and its supporters are desperate to hide one simple fact:

In March 2022, they occupied almost 30% of Ukraine. Today, almost 4 years later, they occupy only about 20%.

Any war where the invader holds less territory after 4 years than after 1 month is a disaster

Take A Break has been the biggest selling women's magazine in the UK for over a quarter of a century and it's basically fantasy horror, yet there's absolutely no recognition of this because it doesn't look "geeky"

Yes, no-one is safe.

We already had a young Welsh woman detained by ICE in Tacoma WA whilst trying to cross into Canada.

Seems she had the wrong visa, so the US held her for 19 days.

A British woman married to an American was arrested by ICE at final Green Card appointment WHILST HOLDING BABY.
