It's odd that the "Thatcher is evil because she destroyed industrial jobs in Northern England" people seem to be very very quiet about Miliband and Labour doing *exactly the same thing* to Britain's oil and gas industry, steel industry, petrochemicals industry, farming, pottery industry, hospitality industry... basically any industry that uses electricity.

There is a simple solution to every problem

As a priest, who has celebrated Holy Communion twice today and is departing for a Cistercian monastery tomorrow, can I just say that this 'Easter Egg rage' is nonsense. If you care that much, get yourself to church, and then perhaps you will realise that our faith is not based on confectionary or its packaging.

The genius of Moroder

This is one of the most unlikely friendship stories the internet has ever produced. In 2014, a writer named Matt Stopera had his phone stolen from a bar in New York City, USA. He bought a new one, assumed the old one was gone forever, and moved on with his life. About a year later, he noticed something strange. Photos he had never taken were appearing in his camera roll. A man he had never seen before. Standing next to an orange tree. Smiling at the camera. Then more photos. The same man. Different orange trees. More smiling. Matt had no idea who this person was or how his photos were getting there. Then he realised. His old stolen phone had somehow made its way to China. It was still connected to his account. Every photo the new owner took was quietly syncing to Matt's camera roll, thousands of miles away. Matt wrote a short article about it. Just a curious story. He was not expecting much. The article was translated into Chinese and published on Weibo, China's largest social media platform. Within hours it had millions of views. Chinese internet users launched a search to find the man in the photos. They called him Brother Orange. The hashtag to find him became one of the biggest trending topics on the entire platform overnight. Two days later, they found him. His name was Li Hongjun. He was a restaurant owner from a small city called Meizhou in southern China. He had bought the phone second-hand from a market, not knowing where it had come from. When he heard that the internet was looking for him his first reaction was fear. He had done nothing wrong but he had seen what happened when millions of strangers decided to find someone. He came forward anyway. Matt flew to China to meet him. A full media circus followed them everywhere. Cars drove through the streets with both of their faces printed on the side. They took mud baths together while a crowd of journalists filmed from the edge. Li had never been friends with anyone who was not Chinese. Matt did not speak a word of Mandarin. They communicated through a translator and somehow understood each other immediately. Li later visited Matt in the United States. They went to Las Vegas. Li tried string cheese for the first time. They have been close friends for over ten years. A documentary about their friendship was released in 2025. "One of the lessons I learned," Matt said, "is never judge a man by his selfies. In his selfies he looks so serious. In real life he was just the warmest, funniest, very smart guy."

@BlasterCommon Solitaire

This man is an utter disgrace.

@Trailer_Swift1 ?

Ozzy Osbourne's "Crazy Train" played on a xylophone is proof that every school needs a fully funded music program

But not as much as Keir does as PM

@MsJamandPickle @our_jesse They do.

@Eagle_Chaser @our_jesse Nope the numbers don't sound right that way

If you give me your mobile number in a 3-3-3-2 formation than I’m ringing the police

@MsJamandPickle @our_jesse 5 3 3. It's the only way.

@our_jesse 3 3 2 3 with the formation of numbers it's the only way to say it, anything else sounds odd to me

Well done, Royal Mail—parcel received. And please, by all means, pop back for the rest of my garden ornaments whenever you fancy, you twat.

Today, Ayrton Senna would have turned 66 if it weren't for his accident at Imola in 1994 Just enjoy the sound and the skill of one of his laps in Monaco

@CSG1973 I'm led to believe it's possible that Kate Beckinsale in a rubber catsuit was doing a lot of the heavy lifting.

We just watched Underworld: Evolution and, please, can someone explain to me how on earth it got 6.7 on IMDB.

People are lonely because they build walls instead of bridges

Yes.
