I do wish the weirdo over the road would stop staring through my window. It’s creepy af.
A photo, taken through a window, of a house on the opposite side of the road. It’s dark, but one window on the house is lit up. If you zoom in enough, you can see a large, round, white, furry soft toy with a wonky smile looking towards the camera.

Fair play, this is a good line from this unnamed Tory MP.
Screenshot from an article, the text reads: ‘By Wednesday morning, Tory ministers felt secure enough to be making jokes about the ostracisation of the 6ft 7in Sir Simon. As one put it, Sunak had survived “the knife of the long knight”.’

Amazing work Tories. Beyond satire.

Sunak was quoted as saying “the fact the Labour wish to ignore is that good humour is up 30% under this government. Why don’t they want to talk about that?”
Article from the Guardian with the headline “Sunak denies that he is ‘tetchy’ under pressure”.

Holy shit that Liz Truss line.

Esther McVey, the apparent “Minister for Common Sense” making a mockery of her job title.
A quote from Esther McVey stating that the current Covid inquiry should be looking at whether we should have locked down during Covid at all. There is no mention of how our health services, which were dangerously overstretched at the time would have been able to cope with yet more patients.

Feels like someone was trying to fill space in this Covid test instruction booklet.

Nothing will ever top this for me.
A correction from the Mirror that reads “A previous version of this article suggested that Katie Hopkins was stopped from leaving South Africa because of the consumption of Ketamine. We are happy to clarify that Ms Hopkins was detained for spreading racial hatred, which took place after the Ketamine incident.”

The “Show Posts from My Feeds Setting” isn’t necessarily pulling in the most interesting posts from my feeds.

The Guardian casually bodying Marvel’s entire televisual output here.
