Green Party say 'Hannah Spencer won't be silenced' after Manchester violence Hannah Spencer, Gorton and Denton's newly-elected MP, was ushered into a police car amid the unfolding chaos

The reason the middle-class media has not reported Hannah Spencer being attacked by right-wing transphobes is that it needs to preserve the nice, coffeee-round-the-kitchen-table, middle-class view of transphobia, not the thuggish fascist reality.

Sly fox sneaks on to cargo ship in Southampton and arrives in New York The animal that stowed away on the vessel is now in the care of the Bronx Zoo with veterinary staff.

Now the ship's got to go back to Southampton to get the grain.

Why call it "rendered impossible due to sleep deprivation" when "cancelled by woke" is right there.

"Winston Churchill is a hero. He’s earned his place on our Five Pound Note. He must not be replaced with an Otter."

I'm increasingly convinced that this whole campaign is in fact an elaborate joke.

100,000 trans people & allies fill central London for Trans Pride.

Mainstream media: nothing

Thousands of trans people & allies fill Wembley Arena for pro-trans gig with massive names like Sophie Ellis-Bextor & Sugarbabes.

Mainstream media: nothing.

This is what extreme media bias looks like.

you do not have to do racism to experience β€œthe frisson of transgression” you can simply shoplift an eyeliner pencil or cheat on your husband instead

Picture of a man in a white suit watching a boat being pulled up a hillside. There's a quote from Werner Herzog. Every man should pull a boat over a mountain once in his life

We've had the solution to the Strait of Hormuz problem for decades

Amazing to think how alive John Cleese has seemed ever since falling off a cliff in 1993. Some people claim he's still around and using social media. I remember his death quite clearly and how his untarnished reputation was lovingly discussed at the time

Narratively having Ever Given getting stuck in 2021 to set up Hormuz in 2026 is great foreshadowing. You want your audience to understand the basics of international shipping in a lower stakes context so you drop the real plot without a lot of saggy exposition about the minutiae of cargo logistics.

With talk of oil hitting $100 a barrel, let's remember a pre Radio 2 Rylan getting confused by the concept

The Strait of Hormuz, with badgers

The Strait of Hormuz, with badgers

Can this be a solution or are they all too busy shoving Churchill off banknotes?

I've just had an amazing idea

I've been going with this for the plural:

Mnemonics?
Nemonics?
Either
Mnemonics
Or
Nemonics.
I
Can't
Spell.

A better time to replace Churchill with a badger would have been when he was alive. Much funnier that way.

A goth woman in red-and-black corsety thing is sitting in the box of a cargo bike, laughing; a fit goth bloke in tight black jeans, black shirt & black hat is holding the bike & grinning. It's all a bit blurry. It's possible the people involved have partaken of the alcohols. Everybody got home safely.

Nevertheless, Oxford University is enthusiastically exhorting everybody to use AI bots for everything they do, and apparently sees no contradiction there, presumably because CoPilot has told them it will all be fine.
