I’ve been surprised to see there is clearly a sizeable local Georgian community, they’ve started hanging their flags from the bridges over the local bypass.

Do you know what's more embarrassing than having 'Another One Bites the Dust' as a ringtone? Not putting your phone on silent at a funeral.

I once had the idea of a fake celebrity magazine that was obsessed by the whereabouts of Marti Pellow and would tweet random sightings of the Wet Wet Wet singer, I had fears of the legality of it, and chickened out. But seeing some of the content on that hellsite, I was probably over cautious.

A first class stamp is still a bargain. The Post Office should change their marketing slogan to "If you think £1.70 is expensive, then take it yourself"

This exchange happened five years ago. Today, we need the Womble Apocalypse more than ever.
Basically, I would like the world to be run by Paddington Bear, the Wombles and Bagpuss, with the Muppets as special advisors.
Please?

Just setting off on a bike ride. Caught sight of my reflection in the French windows.
Thick set middle age man in wraparound shades and a fluorescent jacket that fit before the winter….
I look like a blooming bouncer.

When I joined this platform I think I must have randomly ticked “cats” as something I’m interested in.
Either that, or you’re frankly all more interested in cats than is normal. I mean, I like cats, I have a cat, but every other post on my timeline?
Or did I accidentally join the feline illuminati?

If you want to test the limits of AI, watch the video for Informer by Snow on YouTube and ask it to generate automatic captions.
It tries. It tries so hard.

The president has just four years until a successor takes the reins, but the new approach he has forged – exceptionalist, isolationist – is likely to endure, says Guardian columnist Martin Kettle

Maybe corny but it was helpful for me to hear Henry Rollins saying "this is not time to be dismayed, this is punk rock time, this is what Joe Strummer trained you for... You can be thunderous in your own life, to the eight people around you. That rubs off... Goodness is viral"
