I haven't been watching The Traitors on BBC One but I thought I'd take this moment to let you all know that I vomited on Celia Imrie once 👍

If you wondered why Nigel Farage turned up in US Congress in September speaking about "freedom of speech", this story has the answer

His appearance was orchestrated by a powerful American anti-abortion group that is trying to increase its influence in the UK by influencing the free speech debate

My friend Sascha is a professional musician and he's lost a viola bow on the way to Heathrow. Please signal boost to help him get it back.

Lost viola bow on the way from Honor Oak Station to Heathrow Terminal 2. The bow slid from its bow case somewhere along the way, possibly on the train. TFL contacted already.
It weighs 68.2 grams and has got a stamped DODD next to the frog. If any info on this, please pm me.

I love bookshops like this. The kind of places that looks like the owner lost control of years ago & will probably end up dying under a book avalanche one day.

And to add to the Trump madness, he's given the go ahead for the Qatari Air Force to build a base in Idaho.

WTF?

Could this have anything to do with the golden jet they gave him??

Are they feeding Trump AI slop, because he genuinely seems to believe this?

Also, he looks awful. I mean, I deeply detest the guy but is this elder abuse?

Was the deal that he gets to stay out of jail while a bunch of evil weirdos use him as a puppet to enact their nefarious plans?

Trump: "Portland, I mean -- every time I look at that place it's burning down. There are fires all over the place. When a store -- there are very few of them left -- but when a store owner rebuilds a store they build it out of plywood. They don't put up storefronts anymore. They just put wood up."
