Reading a history of WW2 for a thing - and you know who did not fuck about? The Slovaks, that's who.
Nazi war criminal in Slovakia? Hanged.
None of this 'oh you killed 20000 people, go to jail for ten years and we'll release you in three' crap that most of the rest of the allies were so fond of.

The Rosslyns song is great, but the Vaselines one is a classic - 1!
Not a single Scottish official at the World Cup. Remind me how VAR is essential for refs again?
Looking at my copy of it right now. Probably my favourite piece of art ever.
The first singles I bought with my own money in there - 'Bright Eyes' and 'Sunday Girl'. In retrospect, the mix of maudlin ballad and spiky guitar pop were a good indicator of a fair proportion of my future music tastes
My fat arsed auntie sat on, and broke, 'Sunday Girl' the following day.
From a post:
“Told my wife to have dinner ready by 6 or I'll obliterate her entire civilization.
So anyway, she now charges me a fee to use the bathroom that used to be free, and I didn't get any dinner, but I'm pretty sure I won that exchange.”
“Trump’s plans to punish and reward Nato members are under discussion but one option is to move US troops out of countries deemed to be less supportive, in both a military and economic blow to the host nation”
Good. Fuck off then.
And then read all about them in @paulmagrs.bsky.social brilliant book about the Annuals!

The problem with those is that these are stand ups - they make people laugh by telling jokes they've written in advance for a living. If someone just went up for their Joker and did a new part of their act, you'd hope they'd get a pile of the other contestants laughing. But that'd end the show.
Israel is carrying out Genocide in Lebanon in order to ethnically cleanse it like Gaza.
It is time for the world to take action against Israel.
That is very much my fear after the first episode of series 2 (especially since, Bob M aside, series 1 wasn't often actually funny rather than merely quite diverting).
Melania Trump using Epstein to take the spotlight off Donald Trump's disastrous actions in the middle East which he was using to take the spotlight off Epstein is...well, it'd be hilarious if it wasn't for the fact the demented orange imbecile is risking the world to save his own arse.
New series of Last One Laughing, and several things are clear.
1. David Mitchell is even more socially awkward than I am. He struggles even to stand in the way a human does.
2. Most comedians are not naturally, spontaneously funny.
3. Jimmy Carr's looks now mirror his personality perfectly.
Ah no, the bundles are already discounted twice - if I gave another 10% off on them, I'd actually make a loss on every one we sold.
Who'd have guessed that 'On the Buses' would go full 'Thelma and Louise' for its last episode?
Thought I had one with ‘Everyone Else Burns’ but apparently Sian Clifford is in one of Ncuti Gatwa’s stories.
Hislop boasting about his work in 2006
(and people wonder why I keep commissioning you!)
The very one!
Coincidentally, there's a brand new Black Archive that looks at exactly this!
(I have become such an Archive pimp!)
(obviously I am now imagining Hartnell using the 'Go Swift' option from the Box of Delights - even though Troughton would obviously be more fitting)
To celebrate ten years since the first #DoctorWho Black Archive, we’ll be announcing a special Archive later this month, but in the meantime, this code will knock 10% off any Archive throughout April

Something akin to the ability to fly down from the Eiffel Tower?
Dear international friends,
Do not travel to the United States this summer for the World Cup. It isn't safe for us, and it's absolutely not safe for you.
Sincerely,
An American citizen
A little More business around Hartnell getting to the Daleks would have been handy. He goes from in the jungle to watching them through a slat as if by magic
This is the sort of 100% truth we need more of on here.
Simpsons Patty & Selma tombstone that reads "Margaret Thatcher: We are richer for having lost her"
Happy Feel Perfectly Free To Speak Ill Of The Dead Day, everyone!
This is when we need everyone - McInnes included - to up their game. Recent performances won't do.
<yawn>
This refusal of simpletons spouting gibberish is what the Block function was made for. Ta ra.
