I asked Vladimir Putin: “25 years ago Yeltsin handed you power & told you 'Take care of Russia.’ Do you think you have? In light of significant losses in Ukraine, Ukrainian troops in Kursk region, sanctions, inflation…” Here’s his reply. Producer @lizashuvalova.bsky.social @bentavener.bsky.social

Josh Shapiro called the McDonald’s employee who reported Luigi Mangione a “hero.” She will NOT get the $10,000 reward money because she called 911 instead of the tip line. By the way, Josh Shapiro got $15,000 in donations from United Healthcare last year. Numbers are fun.

Relatedly, what is mithering me about a lot of the commentary around the “six milestones” are the comparisons with Sunak’s 5 pledges that proceed as if the shortcoming of the pledges was that voters don’t like numbered lists anymore rather than “you do actually need to achieve the pledges”.

Had a look around Our Lady of the Rosary Saltley today. Did you know that the marble fixtures were finally delivered (after the Italian stonemason's company went bust) thanks to a personal meeting between the parish priest and Benito Mussolini?

NEW: Bluesky has seen massive growth in the weeks following the US election. There are 24 million users on the social media platform. With great engagement comes great responsibility, which means Bluesky CEO @jay.bsky.team has a lot to do. She sat down with WIRED to talk about it.

Today's funny word obviously had to be Korean: 똥손 (ttongson). Literally “poop hands,” referring to someone who’s terrible at crafts, cooking, or any hands-on task.

Over Xmas, a lot of the services and clubs which autistic people and their families rely on close down and this can leave them isolated and stressed. But Resources for Autism will be there for them, going the extra mile to bring a smile. Our campaign page is here: www.justgiving.com/campaign/rfa...
