Rory McIlroy?

Excellent article, with Iain astutely arguing that increasing child obesity levels is a necessity step in order to curtail the over-reach of the state.

It's similar to when a football referee points randomly to various parts of the pitch, and warns a player that one more even modest infraction is going to mean a red card.

Me to 3yo: What do you want for your birthday party theme?

3yo: “Poopoo & peepee theme! We can get apple juice for the pee, so a skeleton pees and you drink the skeleton pee but it’s okay because it’s juice”

Me: ..K I was thinking like “dinosaurs” but let’s put a pin in “piss fountain of the dead”

I am planning on appointing someone who has publicly resigned twice in scandal. They resign a third time in even bigger scandal. The fallout should, however, not include me, the person who made the big call in the first place.

“if i was in trump’s cabinet i would be invoking the 25th amendment” that may be one reason he didn’t invite you into his cabinet i reckon

If you just zoom in a bit on the top right 🔎

I pity the fool who had to chair that viva

Very pleasing to watch Huddersfield dominating York this afternoon 🏉

Did it include this one?

I quite like it, has the general vibe of a year 9 assembly.

My favourite thing about the paywall fade you get is that it's the perfect encapsulation of slowly backing away from the nutter in the pub who tries to tell you about how MI5 are controlling his teeth.

A classic of the genre, and quite possibly the last Australian wine I own that comes with a (in this case badly disintegrating) cork.
