Remarkable careers

I'm not sure I've ever been to a gig quite like Ben Watt and Tracey Thorn at The Moth Club last night. Here's why.

People of 🏴 Look who is in Newport. He's a very, very good boy (in the house). Crate trained. He's a bit reactive to other dogs on walkies, so whoever adopts him needs to keep working on his training for that. (Common for rescues).
All the way from Dubai to Wales. Let's get him a home.

Here’s a fun game:
1. Think of something so repugnant that even Trump wouldn’t say it.
2. Check the news.
3. Sorry, you lose.

If ever there was a photo which illustrates why generative AI is so utterly shallow and meaningless it is this one.
‘Simon Being Taken out to Sea for the First Time since His Father Drowned’, Skinningrove, North Yorkshire in 1983 by Chris Killip. It became a weekly ritual for him, done to prevent him becoming afraid of the sea as that is where the community earned their living.

Still reeling from the Stanford report on Brexit. Reduced GDP by up to 8% and investment by as much as 18%. The UK Treasury would have £40 billion more each year if Britain had remained in the EU. Devastating self-immolation.

Twitter accounts are based in Russia. BlueSky accounts are based in homes with, frankly, too many books, plants, obsolete cables, and pieces of rustic pottery, that could do with a bit of a tidying up, to be honest.
