I’d missed the news of Robin Smith’s death yesterday and this from his last interview just days ago is heartbreaking
It was another hurdle cleared, another day of being more open. He was on a path forward. "I've got my first granddaughter arriving on December 5 and I would really love to be a nice grandfather," he tells me. But the

Taking note of the Ladybird hangover book this morning
Sit as still as you can. Do not attempt to make any decisions. Look out of the window. Can you recognise simple shapes or colours? Is there a moon or a sun in the sky? What sort of a name might you have? Where might there be bacon?

I really hope this is a long term project because you can’t beat entertainment like this
Your Party had spent £13,000 on a software system intended for this process and Sultana planned to use it for her membership drive, the Guardian has been told. But she was thwarted when Corbyn's allies learned of her plans and sent a staffer into the organisation's offices at 3am to change the passwords, sources claimed.

Well they’ve done it, they’ve actually made me agree with Kemi www.theguardian.com/law/2025/nov...
The Conservative leader, Kemi Badenoch, also criticised the plans. She said: "It is a short-term decision that risks fairness, undermines public trust, and erodes the very foundation of our justice system."

This from that last RT is one wild paragraph to have written
"Friends" never seemed appealing or groundbreaking to me. I had already seen all of these themes and tropes, but with characters who actually looked like me, boasting a cultural familiarity I could touch. Those Manhattan-dwelling friends and their beloved Central Perk always seemed generic and uninspiring, unable to pull me in the way similar shows like "Will & Grace" or "Sex and the City" did. It was the same reason I stopped watching "Girls" after Season 1 in my early 20s; nothing about it rang authentic or felt relatable to my personal experiences.

I will not stand for this Phil Dunphy slur
Interview with Danny Kruger where he comments “With the kids he'll watch TV - Brooklyn Nine-Nine and Modern Family, which he loves "although obviously I largely deplore its politics" '. Who is his favourite character? "They are all very good. As ever, the normal dad is the usual Homer Simpson characterisation, a bit of a doofus, which I regret. I mean, the doofusisation of dads in popular culture is to blame for a lot of our problems. Because there's no honour in dadness any more. Dad jokes, Dad dancing, I mean." He looks depressed”

I always remember this from a Holocaust Memorial Day post. Some in the Labour Party are a bit too precariously balanced on the lip of something unspeakable
This is the point of remembering the Holocaust. It's not an act of honour for those who died, or an act of defiance against those who killed them. That's too easy. Rather, it is like the coin carried by an alcoholic, to remind him not to drink. To remember is to remain aware that we, as humans, balance on the very lip of the unspeakable; always far closer to toppling than we might wish to admit. All of us, everywhere, all the time
