Europe is at the centre of a new Cold War, but this time the two main protagonists - Putin’s Russia and Trump’s America - want the same thing. An authoritarian, anti-democratic Europe, scared and subservient to them, and devoid of its Enlightenment values.

Belarus rarely makes Western headlines — but it should this week.
A quiet move by the Trump administration has just handed Alexander Lukashenka, and indirectly Vladimir Putin, an unexpected gift.

Maybe go the opposite of your voice? A slope shouldered dread with lots of warmth and bass?

Or a OM/OOO that’s all low-mid clunk and sparkly highs?

Today is a day when arts degrees are worthless, but the product of those degrees is so valuable it would kill an entire industry if they were made to pay for it.

Nick Clegg says asking artists for use permission would ‘kill’ the AI industry

Um, ICE just coldly shot an unarmed PRIEST in the head w a pepper ball when he (and everyone around him) clearly posed no threat.

For the crime of … complaining about government policy.

With cameras rolling, they’re sniping priests for sport.

Poor old Kemi has a problem. She doesn’t want arts subjects learned, because then people would understand how she’s talking bollocks. She doesn’t want sciences or mathematics studied, because then people would understand she’s talking bollocks. She doesn’t want law studied… 1/2

Imagine someone seeing a heartless, unthinkingly loyal, vicious, murderous, amoral, socially inadequate, underling cunt of a person like Stamper and thinking “Now *that’s* who I aspire to be”.

It’s Stamper, isn’t it?

Stephen Miller thinks he’s Stamper from House of Cards.

he should remember Stamper believed he was the power behind the throne, the loyal enforcer, and turned out to be a rube who was used and hung out to dry.

Presumably “little stab” was found to be less than calming.

Why do nurses, when giving you an injection say 'you'll just feel a little pinch'? Pinch is the wrong word. They don't want to say 'little prick', do they.
