Peak Guardian today. More of their fearless and undeterred journalism.

You be the judge: should my partner stop hankering after salt and pepper shakers?

Love this.
More than 100,000 people marched in Hungary’s annual Pride parade in Budapest on Saturday after Prime Minister Viktor Orban’s ban on the event backfired, turning what is usually a low-key parade into a mass rally against his government. www.nytimes.com/2025/06/28/w...

guys we HAVE to get rid of DEI. it’s about FAIRNESS
June 2, 2025 at 10:56 AM
Next up on the list of news items that make me despair …
A group of Labour MPs, peers and supporters write:

“We should legislate to root out DEI in hiring practices, sentencing decisions and wherever else we find it in our public bodies.”

Devastated to see how quickly this has arrived in the UK mainstream.

Definitely worth sharing!
Adding the word ‘fucking’ to your Google search query disables the unwanted AI summary at the top of the results page.

Yep.
Every day a new atrocity in #Gaza. And still the UK supplies lethal weaponry to the Israeli government. There is a term for this: complicity in genocide.

Thanks to @andrewmale.bsky.social for the heads up about Pernille on Netflix. Very good. All the subtleties and nuances that weren't in evidence in the episode of Sirens I watched are to be found here.

William Dalrymple speaking eloquently and passionately about Gaza.
Thank you, @willdalrymple.bsky.social.

Even if it's not possible for this Labour government to feel shame, it's still good to see you articulating the collective revulsion of regular people up and down this country.

Labour is handing this country on a silver platter to Reform. People do not vote Labour because they hate immigrants and want Reform-lite. They vote Labour because they want it to make a positive difference to their lives.

I love this kid.
I went to the Tate Modern yesterday. In the Rothko room with all the Serious Art Connoisseurs there was a ~5 year old kid who walked up to each painting, pointed at it and shouted 'RECTANGLE' at each one in turn, then left the room.
