"Santa Claus is coming to town" - festive, exciting

"Santa Claus is goin' to town" - concerning, possibly problematic

It would be interesting to pinpoint the moment the word "Brexit" came to express the thing you have to own rather than the moment you pass through (see Creasy in today's Guardian). Suspect it began with reference to hard and soft varieties. It makes it much harder for its proponents to shake off

Yeah exactly, it's just like Bertrand Russell said: "Idiots are always getting things wrong, unless they are actually clever"
“A stupid man's report of what a clever man says can never be accurate, because he unconsciously translates what he hears into something he can understand.”

Wow - this guy must be really, REALLY bad with money if an extra £208 per month will “ruin” his retirement.

Let’s take a look at his situation based on what he told the @Telegraph

Because this does NOT add up!

No, this is not a “poor pensioner” scrabbling around for pennies…

OMG. The Guardian have confused Kenneth Clark, presenter of the 1969 series 'Civilisation' with Tory ex-MP & former Chancellor Kenneth Clarke in their review of the new BBC series 'Civilisations:Rise & Fall'

If I’m understanding this correctly, X is owned by a white nationalist who pays poor people of color in developing countries to pretend to be working class white Americans to scare other white Americans into being afraid poor people of color from developing countries are going to ruin America?

My favourite part of the AI Kingston on Thames christmas mural is the man using a severed dog's paw on a stick to subdue his chimera dogwife

@totallyshow.bsky.social As well as the Uncle Jeff Coefficient, am I right in thinking that someone on the show once suggested a way to predict the way the table will finish by looking at what the table is in terms of goal difference, once it gets to Christmas? I might be imagining this

It's Friday afternoon, so who wouldn't want to enter the weekend with one more round of my patented bubble plots of British politics? In this final (one hopes) of my mini-series I look at who the 'odd ones out' of British politics are. Who is 'out of touch' with the rest of the public. Let's see 1/n

This mural has gone up in Kingston, ostensibly for Christmas but AI has ensured it's actually to celebrate the return of our dark lord Cthulhu
