listen, the perfect time to tell your kids about gay people is after youโ€™ve spent 10 years telling them love ONLY exists between a man and a woman because Jesus said so

In a world of lies, we need the BBC more than ever. This week could be our last chance to save it | Polly Toynbee As the public consultation on the BBC nears its end, the right will be out in force to undermine it. But its supporters can do their bit โ€“ with this guidance, says Guardian columnist Polly Toynbee

Deadline is Tuesday

Absolutely insupportable. Labour have a massive majority. Itโ€™s a hugely popular issue. To fail to act would be a dereliction of historic proportions, and utterly inexplicable.

a four-panel stick-figure cartoon

panel one:
three standing figures. from left to right, a guy wearing a necktie looking at his phone, an angry MAGA guy yelling FUCK YOUR FUCKIN POST FUCK YOU FUCK YOU FUCK YOU, and a rando just standing there like an NPC. 

panel two:
the guy looking at his phone shows MAGA guy his hand, causing MAGA to vanish. the word Block hangs in the air where fuckface once was. a green-bordered in-game message appears, reading "+2 Mental Health." now the rando is suddenly interested.

panel three:
as our man continues doom-scrolling, a sly grin on his face, the rando on the right puts on a punch-me face and snarls: "Typical lefty, blocking everyone who disagrees with-"

panel four
phone guy shows the hand to punch-me face, causing the rando to vanish. the word Block hangs in the air where that dickhead was. a green-bordered in-game message appears again, reading "+2 Mental Health."

PANEL 1: The IMPORTANT PUNDIT is standing on a soapbox with a megaphone on the street. One or two people are watching. He motions with his thumb behind himself.
PUNDIT: Hello! WHAT IF Mattie had all of "her" skin ripped off in one big piece like a clementine? 
PUNDIT: This is "its" house by the way!

PANEL 2: MATTIE, sitting on her couch with a book. The voice from the megaphone comes from outside.
VO: What if someone did that. Just if anyone has a big knife, for doing the thing I talked about. I'm just wondering aloud!

PANEL 3: MATTIE leans out the window, yelling.
MATTIE: Get bent, asshole!

PANEL 4: Back on the PUNDIT. everyone is raising a knife of some sort.
PUNDIT: Can you believe that language?
PERSON IN CROWD: SO uncivil.
PERSON IN CROWD: Let's go up there with our blades

Reminder that if you see something horrific, there is good evidence that playing Tetris as soon as possible helps.

Giving yourself PTSD from seeing photos or film clips doesnโ€™t help anyone.

This might surprise people who aren't from the UK, but over here there's a publication that, in order to write for it, you have to be a sex offender.

It's so fucking embarrassing that they've just started lifting our right-wing aesthetics wholesale, you guys are supposed to be all about British culture and tradition and you're posing with two thumbs up like a doofus because that's what the president of the United States does?

A section of the โ€˜Hellโ€™ panel of Boschโ€™s Garden of Earthly Delights.  Thereโ€™s a lot going on, so Iโ€™m going to paste the description from Wikipedia: The focal point of the scene is the "Tree-Man," whose cavernous torso is supported by what could be contorted arms or rotting tree trunks. His head supports a disk populated by demons and victims parading around a huge set of bagpipesโ€”often used as a dual sexual symbol[42]โ€”reminiscent of human scrotum and penis. The tree-man's torso is formed from a broken eggshell, and the supporting trunk has thornlike branches which pierce the fragile body. A grey figure in a hood bearing an arrow jammed between his buttocks climbs a ladder into the tree-man's central cavity, where nude men sit in a tavern-like setting. The tree-man gazes outwards beyond the viewer, his conspiratorial expression a mix of wistfulness and resignation.[47] Belting proposed that the tree-man's face is a self-portrait, citing the figure's "expression of irony and the slightly sideways gaze [which would] then constitute the signature of an artist who claimed a bizarre pictorial world for his own personal imagination".[42] Many elements in the panel incorporate earlier iconographical conventions depicting hell. However, Bosch is innovative in that he describes hell not as a fantastical place but as a realistic world containing many elements from day-to-day human life.[43]

Screen shot from Paul Emberyโ€™s X account:

Respect to this police officer. Confronted by radicals demanding the arrest of a Christian preacher on the grounds that Whitechapel "is a Muslim area" she was calm and professional and
gave them short shrift. Let's see more of this from the police.

Has a video of a woman police officer talking to a group of Muslim men

This clip is all over the other place and has made its way onto GB News and Talk TV so Iโ€™ll do a bit of an explainer here too!

The clip doing the rounds is of a fantastic police officer telling a group of Muslim men that a Christian preacher nearby is entitled to freedom of expression.
