I wish I didn’t have to share this. But the BBC has decided to censor my first Reith Lecture.
They deleted the line in which I describe Donald Trump as “the most openly corrupt president in American history.” /1

Folks it pains me to ask so bluntly, but could anyone use some work doing by me? I've got to find income for three months until my next royalty payment, and I'm not having much luck.

I made a “how do you do, fellow kids?” joke to someone in their mid 20s who, it turns out, was too young to have heard of that meme.
So “how do you do, fellow kids?” is now an example of “how do you do, fellow kids?”

Yeah, Labour and the media keep doing this with Zack Polanski too - assuming it's the style of his social media that attracts people rather than the content
labour have looked at the mamdani win and the lesson they've learned is 'he uses social media' and not 'he is kind towards immigrants and trans ppl and wants to help the working class instead of corporate donors'.

Each year website DailyPortalZ holds a contest where people dress up as something super duper ordinary.
Here's a thread of some of my favorites from the 2025 contest!
