I think this is the closest many of us have ever got to seeing the real Trump. The only consistent thread in his entire unhinged rant was the love & praise for Vladimir Putin. Zelensky has more courage & dignity in his little finger than every member of Trump's regime & fan club combined.

Forget the nonsense about which month Rachel Reeves left the Bank of England. This is the real CV fiddling story.

The guaranteed thing about any social media is that there's always someone ready to give you their opinion or unsolicited advice, isn't there?

I've got to be honest, 2025 has got off to a proper shitty start. Life is very unfair isn't it sometimes?

www.bbc.co.uk/news/article... My first permanent library job was in Leeds Central music library, until they closed it. Best job I've ever had. Pretty sure we had a dedicated music librarian then. He was the best boss!

We love the cover on this Folio Society edition of Chance by Joseph Conrad. But once you've seen the angry gingerbread man shouting at the moon, you can't unsee it.

If you're watching #Patience on Channel 4 don't go to York Castle Museum if you want fossils. It's definitely not filmed there. It is a great museum, but for fossils you want the Yorkshire Museum (it's not filmed there either though!)

I very much appreciate the updates @bsky.app are making all the time to the app, but it would be a million percent better if it could just remember the post I looked at last and let me scroll up to the newer ones, rather than having to read the latest post first and scroll down

Nothing screams 'doing politics well' like spending TEN BILLION POUNDS to compensate a tiny fraction of people, many of whom simply don't need it, for a change with in most cases a 20 year run up.
