It is rare for something shot in Manchester to feel absolutely Hooklandian, but Small Prophets is a rare thing - an esoteric TV comedy that grows the heart. Mackenzie Crook is a genius. Small Prophets is television treasure.

How much time and effort is wasted switching from company from another because they hike their prices after a while?
What happened to rewarding customer loyalty?
Why does every purchase now entail the work of having to rate the person delivering it?
It’s exhausting!!

People most at risk in public toilets: young boys whose mothers are barred and where men can legitimately stand in public with their dicks out.
People most inconvenienced by public toilets: women who face long queues to access facilities when there is no queue at all at the men’s.

Overseas tycoons such as Elon Musk would be barred from giving substantial donations to UK political parties under new legislation to block companies making gifts if they do not have British owners or make sufficient revenue in the country

Radcliffe should remember we immigrants and children of immigrants are here because of British colonisation and make a huge contribution. He moved to Monaco to avoid £4bn tax. His club Man U owes everything to migrant players and migrant supporters. He’s an embarrassment to the club and game.

Australian Census on University Staff Wellbeing results are out. Every uni recorded scores indicating high/very high psych risk.
And in news surprising no one, "only senior execs and deans rated their workplaces as medium or low risk while all other staff groups reported high-risk conditions."

Absolutely honoured to be named @attitudemag.bsky.social trailblazer of the year in their #101 list.
As a gay man, I know it's a worrying time for our LGBTIQA+ community.
We are under attack.
When they come for one of us, they come for all of us. And we will stand together.

He obviously realized it was a bad look …
The fact Starmer won’t get rid of McSweeny given his deep connections with Mandelson can mean one of two things:
A) McSweeny has Kompromat
B) They’re part of the same hustle
Or C) Both

So now we know our lives and economies are being controlled by a cabal of shady powerful men, who think they are genetically superior to the rest of us, and that our only purpose in being alive is to enrich them, what are we going to do about it?
