Admittedly there is a lot of news today, but it seems a bit odd that the trial of a man who stabbed 13 people during a multi-day rampage is only visible on the BBC News website if you navigate to the UK>England section, and is only the fourth most prominent story even there.

In 1976, the U.S. government funded one of the most psychedelic short films ever made.
It was filled with odd images and occult symbols.

Ha. My Dad went to uni in the 60s. A student was holding forth once to a lecturer about student uprisings in Paris and an academic responded:
βWe could beat you in a war, even if we were extremely drunk. Especially if we were extremely drunk.β
The police procedural drama I am very much here for.

I want to see 2 cops thrown together by circumstances, initially they dislike each other but following their character arc they continue to dislike each other and finally end the series still thinking each other is a twat.

This is very good, and couldnβt be clearer. Sadly, those who prefer to outsource their thinking to others and parrot mantras instead will refuse to read it.
I wrote a new piece about womenβs rights and whether or not I want trans people dead. (Spoiler: I donβt)π

OPEN LETTER: Sally Rooney is a writer, not a terrorist. Her books must be available to the public. Their withdrawal from sale, on the basis of ill-conceived and draconian anti terror legislation, is an affront to basic principles of free speech and expression so long taken for granted in this country. We categorically reject censorship - whether direct or indirect - and urge the government to change course, amending the legislation which has led us to this point of repressive absurdity.

Andrew Doyle told me he was stunned by what he saw from people he once considered friends.
After Ann Widdecombe's murder, he says former colleagues were posting comments he found so disturbing that it made him question whether the culture war had fundamentally changed them.

Hi Rosie, I follow your work and ideas. I'm a writer and church minister currently working in France. Here's my eyewitness account of being caught up in the riots, and a deep search for the roots of the violence. There are themes that should resonate.
