Joyce Carol Oates was born the day (16th June 1938) anti-Jewish violence erupted in Berlin, marking a significant escalation in Nazi Germany's persecution of Jewish citizens.
Here she is absolutely schooling a trillionaire fascist who mocks concepts like empathy.

I'm actively trying to avoid getting riled up, and have learnt to accept that there's little I personally can do to push back against the extremes of hatred whether misogyny, racism, homophobia or whatever else, given how aggressively the tide has pushed towards extremism
But still, this is so shit

UNESCO has recognised the Cyrus Charter at its conference in Samarkand.
It is a clay cylinder from 539 BC with an inscription from the Iranian king which celebrated freedom, justice, and respect for cultural diversity.
Currently it sits in Room 52 at the British Museum

Exactly this time last year, I stopped drinking.
12 full months since these bars and mezcal distilleries of Oaxaca, Mexico.
I didn't plan it, but for some reason I stuck with it. Fitter, healthier, happier. I sleep much better. I've lost weight and have more mental energy.

Marketing undergrads need to study this restaurant for what to do right.
In a city that has dozens of Persian restaurants which arguably serve better quality food, Berenjak are absolutely nailing the hype machine (& even expanded to Tehrangeles, imagine that)

This is my uncle Abbas, and he's genuinely a decent guy once you get to know him, and once you move past the toe-licking 👍🏻
Toe-licking demon, circa 1921.

Really enjoyed #CelebrityTraitors, fantastic telly
But-
1) Could there not have been a bit more mention on the chosen charities, especially in the final? Because of the show's popularity it really would have increased awareness and maybe donations
2) £100,000 prize pot, with these ratings Really?

Joe Marler's raw intelligence was consistently underestimated throughout the series just because he played Front Row in Rugby, rather than have a background in academia or Footlights.
