NEWS! Bill Murray to appear in 'Groundhog Day 2: The Strait of Hormuz' newsthump.com/2026/04/20/b...

Description from The Met’s site - “Inspired by the modernity of London’s subway system, popularly known as the Tube, Power featured it in many of his signature linocuts. The disengaged passengers on this crowded subway—a scene familiar to many urban dwellers—prefer to read their newspapers rather than interact with one another. Alienation, a by-product of modern life, is a theme often present in Power’s images of the London Underground”.

The Tube Train, by Cyril E. Power, linocut, 1934.

I'd love to hear this story as told by the (long suffering) editor.
I speak as someone who argued with a sub-editor for half an hour about a comma in my first published article.

Not at all. She's a writer, and her writing is *her* baby. Of course she feels threatened when someone says its fingers are too long, or its hair too ginger.

Eny fule kno that.
Except Cap'n P'card, obvs.

It's Robot Wars that worries me. Will Craig Charles agree to commentate?

Once booked for the Curzon in Canterbury, selected a subtitled screening, and was secretly wafted away to (?) Gloucester. Technology is a miracle. And expensive at that.

Guardian headline: Humanoid robots show rapid advances as they race past humans in Beijing half-marathon. There's a picture of a gawky headless robot having a little run.

Thank God! No one has to run marathons any more - we're free!

Off the shoulder of Orion?

I had to Google it. Had to.
"Faeces are white because birds do not produce liquid urine; instead, they excrete nitrogenous waste as a thick, white paste. This white uric acid is produced by the kidneys to conserve water and reduce weight for flight, exiting through the same opening as the faeces."

Same.
But they'd highlighted 30+ notes I'd already seen.
It'll pass.

🚨

this is from last September

Are there any Labour MPs who are NOT getting freebies from the gambling industry?

That is an indisputable downside/upside, depending on your perspective.

That only counts if they kill them. Resignations don't count.

I saw a metallic mustard SUV the other day. I can only imagine the lesson here is that the long age of grey is finally over.
So that's a hoorah from me.

I'd love to, but sadly I'm washing my hair.

TWO naughty boys!

Yes, but are we quite *sure* about that?
Asking for an unbeliever.

If only there were charity shops that could sell on unwanted items, investing the cash into worthwhile causes.
One person's shit is another's treasure.

Yvette Cooper is going to be stunned when she becomes aware that she and the UK government have been assisting in the slaughter of thousands of kids in the Middle East.

Metric please!!

But ... but ... if everyone's losing those seats, where are they all going?

CUE: Twilight Zone Theme.

Just don't tell @mrrickygervais.bsky.social 😉

"Blessed are the rich, for they will get whole fucking lot."

Except Labour is doing bugger all.
Force then to spend. Debt then the right to pay dividends while they're in debt. And let them go bust. Then nationalise.
But nationalise. It's a crime and it needs sorting.

That'll be fun. Not.

"Such a niche sell"?
