Glad it’s only damaged dignity.
My companion piece explains the film’s context: USAID’s dismantling is estimated to have already killed 600,000 people, ⅔ of them children. Officials simply deny any harm, while halting data monitoring and firing inspectors general who’d have documented it. 2/

Is that a Michael Stick-on?
I dunno. The last time I was there someone was literally taking a dump outside the front door. It was lunchtime.
Epstein ballroom?
A great setting!
God yes. Well said that lady.
Yikes - the land surrounding the Cerne Abbas Giant is up for sale!
Lot 1 is top-quality chalk downland bursting with wildflowers & butterflies - orchids, skippers… going for £950k. It absolutely needs to be preserved. Hope the NT or similar can buy

Many condolences Aaron. May her memory be a blessing.
It’s the hi tech version of Modern Jackass magazine.

Some restaurants in major Chinese cities, home to large populations of migrant workers who come looking for jobs, are offering reduced-price meals known as “aixincan," or “loving meals.” They are part of a movement that offers free or discounted meals to people in need, no questions asked.
Excellent as always. Thank you for organising, Susie.
Maybe it was all a big misunderstanding after someone mentioned Dominic West guest starred in Brassic.
I set up a cat cam for my much missed cat. She would walk around looking for us, sleep on the bed waiting for us, and vindictively claw a felt-covered chair she knew she wasn’t supposed to use as a scratching post.
Trade war!
Great advice. I went to see Prince at the O2 even though I wasn't a superfan and it was ridiculously expensive but the show was incredible and Prince only toured the UK once more.
The Cured.
Tall stories amirite?
Do you use Eat Your Books? A nice compromise between digital recipes and cookbooks.

The former Consulate of Italy in Glasgow is for sale for £2.5m. The outside looks fairly ordinary but it is the interior that lives up to the title. www.rightmove.co.uk/properties/1...
I like it. And more importantly, I got it.
Have you watched Detectorists? If not, it is brilliant gentle TV.
AI tells me that it means you wear a bow tie and white dress shirt but your jacket and trousers don't need to be exactly dinner jacket/tuxedo style. I've never heard of it either but I like the idea you don't need men to already own a dinner jacket or rent one for the night to come along.
There is a very good, highly addictive, French spy series on Amazon called the Bureau.
Exactly: if some critical part of our heritage was sitting in a museum in Athens, the exact same people who insist giving back the marbles is capitulation would be demanding our property back. There is zero need for the marbles to be in the UK.
Is this where I'm allowed to be boring and point out there are *two* Aldis (Aldi Nord and Aldi Sud), and that the UK one is run by Aldi Sud and Trader Joe's is run by Aldi Nord and Aldi Sud is also in the US as Aldi.
*You* too could join our gang. No skill required (as evident from my participation). Next club night, either Dec 17 or (if people have better plans than crossword solving that close to Christmas), January 21.
IIRC the protests were about the PA’s policies in the West Bank. There is political water between anti Fatah and pro Hamas. Of course connections can exist and maybe they do but it’s feels like a cheap way to downgrade a source by assigning it to the Hamas camp.
Sure. I was relaying a single experience. I don’t doubt other people have other experiences.
But I do feel that there is a disingenuousness from some pro-Israel types that the real problem with the marches is that they aren’t welcomed in like this is a high school debate & tone matters above all.
