Absolute stand-out logic here from Farage: Ukraine should be able to hold an election in wartime because Britain held one between VE and VJ Days. Yes, if the nearest frontline to Ukraine in the Russo-Ukraine War was 5,000 miles away, I’d probably expect them to hold elections on schedule too.

The ridiculous size of phones is basically the reason I kept an iphone 3 (yes, 3...) going until eventually giving it and replacing it with a 13 mini. I don't understand why they don't do a mini of each model, we don't mind paying the same so it's literally pure profit?!

"Galloped" is doing some heavy lifting here. A quick Google would tell them a gallop is 20+ miles an hour. If the guys running that fast then I agree, it's probably worth checking him for drugs. What we have here is...trotting www.bbc.co.uk/news/videos/...

I'm trying to be good and make sure I go for a leg stretch after work. Keep passing a guy with a cute terrier who tucks what he's smoking into his palm on approach. Can smell the weed for ages afterwards - why risk burning your hand/setting fire to your coat?! I'm worried I look like the weed police

If a guy with the first name Mohammad had groomed a 22 year old to overthrow the US government he would have been drone striked by now & the 22 year old would be wearing orange pyjamas

Can we diversify the fashions of stacks of people/ideas pretending to be a whole person/concept that they're not? Must they all be in trenchcoats? I am several defunct coping mechanisms in a Reefer coat

Can't wait for someone to make a film about the captain Tom foundation. The whole story is just my favourite fking thing. It's like a funny/sad milkshake duck story but also about our particular national decline into madness. Sometimes I go back to the wiki page just to remind myself what happened

Still dying of embarassment that when the delivery guy went 'you have strong man?' as he put 5 big boxes outside work yesterday; my sarcasm ignored the fact that he wasn't one of our regulars and English is far from his first language, and still did a Carry-On-esque 'how dare you'. Poor sod.

I've made the choice not to set a 6am alarm to go out in the dark/rain/wind before work tomorrow morning - so look forward to seeing the stories tomorrow that a storm has never fizzled out to nothing this fast in the entire record history of weather etc. You're welcome.

As the years go by, I've come to appreciate the stupid 'man eats sofa', 'woman marries bus stop' news stories more - we could use a couple of those this week to break up...everything else

It actually is very important that you do things that you take pleasure in, regularly. That is part of how you survive the things that feel like they are going to destroy you.

I wrote this on eternal life and ceaseless cringe. And how I've no interest in living forever if it's in a world ruled by the weird, brittle freaks we call tech CEOs. www.irishexaminer.com/lifestyle-co...

I remember a post on the old site that said Mr Collins is so perfect, and so eviscerated, that at least a bit of him must be based on somebody Austen knew and hated

Every country not doing this is an idiot. It will reduce a lot of energy without wasting land, and will hopefully lead to fewer new carparks, and the freeing up of existing at park land for more useful purposes like housing as owners can’t be bothered. Do it.
