I love these guys, no word of a lie. Thank God for weirdos
A lovely (and funny) anecdote out of Ronald Johnson’s 1976 Vort interview, conducted by Barry Alpert (reprinted in _Ronald Johnson: Life and Works_ (National Poetry Foundation, 2008)). I would love to read a collection of the letters exchanged between Ian Hamilton Finlay and Johnson.

Not sure what YOU need this morning but maybe it's one of the grooviest albums ever made. London jazz, Ghanian groove, exquisite production (like some of the best I've ever heard). One of my favorite groups of all time. Throw on the first track, trust.

I once asked a bookseller at a large indie store how many people would have to buy a book for it to get the attention of the store buyer and cause an additional order and they said: Three.
I see some book piracy discourse, and, to make a positive argument in favor of buying books, your marginal ability to influence what books get published and support the careers of writers you like is massive compared to most other forms of media.

Starmer plans on letting amateur volunteers send ppl to jail for two years without a jury, AND severely restricting the right to appeal.

This is as bad as anything Trump has attempted to do to our justice system. And it has much better odds of actually succeeding!
oh Americans may not understand this, but a 'magistrate' in the UK is a local volunteer with typically no legal background. But it's ok, they receive about 10 days of training. And now they can send you to jail for two years without a jury!

Screaming hate campaign by our media and various parts of our government starting to pay off in increasingly negative public attitudes to trans rights in the UK. This is, it should be clear, just as much a product of our centre left faction as our right. Absolutely disgraceful.
the Ipsos Pride survey is genuinely an awesome product, but jesus the difference in the UK/US on trans issues is nuts

Do I know anyone on here who went to a British boys boarding school -preferably the elite kind- within the last 20 years? If that doesn't describe you then retweet this until somebody it does describe sees this.

This thread is utterly extraordinary. I both have a new respect for Home Alone and am laughing my ass off
But the wet bandits are also gods. They take fatal injury after fatal injury and they just dust themselves off and continue their relentless pursuit of Kevin. It should be horrifying, but
Kevin’s innocence obscures this.

Would dance a jig if RFK Jr had a fatal heart attack right now. An evil murderous thick cunt
Maybe the single most destructive, stupid, and dangerous piece of domestic policy put forth in the 21st century
Breaking News: Robert F. Kennedy Jr. said he personally instructed the CDC to abandon its position that vaccines do not cause autism. The move underscores his determination to challenge scientific orthodoxy — in this case, that vaccines save lives — and bend the health department to his will.
