I'm sorry to tell you that the print on the spine of one of your Hogarth books is back to front and absolutely has to go. I also have my suspicions about the book next to it with the orange spine, but I can't quite make out the wording.....

Amazing how much of Trump's presidency is just blowing up something good that Biden did and then slowly, incompetently, ineffectively trying to recreate it.

the Michael Jackson film rating gives parents stronger guidance about letting their kids spend time with the screen version than other parents had about letting their kids spend time with the actual person

Every time I think things can't get more insane in the USA, they prove me wrong.

Received election bumf from Reform in the post today. Straight in the recycling. Waste of paper / ink / envelope / postage, but I suppose Nige can afford it. I presume what he doesn't have are volunteers to deliver them by hand......

Thanks, not sure why I don't remember him at all. Weird.

Similarly, historians will retch at Zelensky’s treatment in the Oval Office & beyond. We all moved on to the next abomination without even stopping for sandwiches…

Sometimes, when I'm moving plants on and off the windowsill to adjust the sunlight they get, I like to pretend I'm sending secret messages to the resistance. Snake Plant second from the left means the invasion starts today at 11am.

I don’t know who needs to hear this, but you’re under absolutely no obligation to justify yourself to anyone if you choose to spend the entire weekend reading a good book, making multiple cups of tea, and indulging in a borderline scandalous amount of cinnamon rolls.

The guy who says he invented the word groceries, who posts photos of himself as Jesus and says windmills give you noise cancer is the sober teetotaler in this administration.

Beautiful view. Never been up to the roof terrace, no idea why. Must remember to do that soon.

I know, it's done to death but if President Biden had blundered his way into a needless war that then left US service members stranded in hostile waters with food supplies running low, the right would've stormed the White House to tar and feather him

Okay I got it, the bluesky server is in the vessel with the pestle while the pellet with poison is in the flagon with the dragon.

Yes, I've had problems on both phone and laptop. Feels like early Twitter - too many customers, not enough something or another.

Getting tired of all of these "resource issues" with Bluesky. Haven't been able to view notifications or do much of anything today and not for the first time.

Behold, another second coming. But this one is Donald Trump – WAY BETTER than that Jesus guy | Marina Hyde The Middle East on fire, a spat with the pope – and he posts himself as Potus Almighty. Will his disciples now see that their messiah has feet of clay, asks Guardian columnist Marina Hyde

Monday is a state of mind
 
Monday –
You are a fixed penalty notice on the windscreen 
of my week
You are three weasels in a trench coat shoplifting happiness 
          from my tiny thrift store of joy
You are a pinata stuffed with wasps
Or a tombola where the first prize is a tube of Canestan
You are the audio book of Morrissey’s novel, 
read by Joe Pasquale
A game of Russian roulette with a bullet in every chamber
Edvard Munch’s The Scream painted by Rolf Harris. 
Can you guess what it is yet?
Yes, it’s Monday and it’s bloody horrible.
 
You give me the same feeling as when I hear somebody
who I had previously considered to be a good friend
          unironically utter the word ‘holibobs’

I am no historian but I have it on good authority 
it was the very thought of you
that made the library at Alexandria burn itself down
and those fifteenth-century boy princes 
throw themselves out of the tower
 
Monday –
You are a bag of peanuts containing the label
 ‘MAY CONTAIN NUTS’
You are an unexpected item in the bagging area,
except for the fact that you are expected
because the bagging area is merely a metaphor 
for the passage of time
and oh crap, it’s Monday again
 
You are an improper fraction
whose state of impropriety has become 
so unacceptable

that all the other fractions 
no longer want anything to do with you
and have organized a worldwide walkout of fractions,
with the result that it is only possible 
for economies to function 
through the application of whole numbers
 
Monday –
the poster child for cystitis
a flag waved at a prom in celebration of lift music
a footballer’s haircut on a papal legate
a stock photograph of somebody taking a stock photograph
               of a tub of stock powder
a punch bag swinging back to smack you in the face
a bad poem which goes on far too long
and with no proper end
 

Brian Bilston

Orbán's Hungarian experiment runs out of steam Péter Magyar's historic win offers peace for a country exhausted by the tensions of Viktor Orbán's rule, Nick Thorpe reports from Budapest.

BBCNews fails to mention Orban being "right wing" let alone authoritarian, once in this article. Apparently Orban just "ran out of steam". Nothing about him dismantling democracy, politicising the courts & universities, or banning independent media. No mention of Putin! www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...
