Fella in the lavs informs everyone that the Oates urinal we're using is collectible and worth £10,000. Calm down Marcel Duchamp.

88 years to the day since Oswald Mosley got his fascist kite rearranged with a load of bricks when he foolishly tried to flog fascism to Liverpool. Remember, violence against Nazis is always entirely justified.

Good luck to everyone trying to get tickets today. The eternal paradox of asking this question to Kraftwerk fans...

New Viz in the shops today. And there's "shy bladder" shenanigans with former president of France General Charles de Gaulle, in 'De Gaulle Bladder"

Panel from a comic strip in which General Charles de Gaulle (1890-1970) is desperate for a wee but can't go when people are watching. De Gaulle may or may not have suffered from this - probably not - but he's dead anyway, so he's not going to sue.

I also need to know: I am fairly middle-of-the-road on Taylor Swift but someone I know called her the Greatest Living Lyricist. She is not.

Who is yours? Either the greatest or your favorite?

It's Super League Grand Final week, and on this day in 2011, our #LegendsOfLeague Legend of the Week produced one of the all-time great individual performances to help Leeds defeat St Helens. It's the iconic Rob Burrow. Thanks for the memories Rob 🙏👏👏👏

Caricature of rugby league legend Rob Burrow

Rob Burrow enjoyed a remarkable career with Leeds Rhinos, becoming one of the most beloved players in the club’s history. Despite his small stature, Burrow’s speed, agility, and tenacity made him a formidable opponent. Debuting in 2001, he quickly became a key figure in the Leeds team during their golden era, contributing to eight Super League titles and two Challenge Cup victories. His man-of-the-match performances in the 2007 and 2011 Super League Grand Finals solidified his status as a Leeds legend. Burrow’s courage, both on and off the field, continues to inspire the rugby league community.

I wrote all this kind of shit down in a notebook for a period. Read it back, realised I was likely quite unwell, went to the GP and got diagnosed with depression. Lolz
