The most amazing, heart-breaking, dramatic start to any documentary series ever. TV at its finest.
Fantastic and hilarious article. Film star, Aston Martin, bonkers investments, (allegedly) dodgy arguments in court, a lawyer called Kingston-Splatt and much else. Props to@thetimes thetimes.com/uk/law/article/…
Great letter. theguardian.com/world/2026/o…

I've heard so many versions of this song and they're all great. But in my opinion, this is the best version ever.
Quite funny. AI can modestly predict survival where people look older or younger than they are. But wait, everyone does that every day and likely with some general predictive validity. The unaddressed question is whether AI is any better at it. theguardian.com/technology/2…

Novak Djokovic defeats top seed Alexander Zverev at the China Open. His rage against the dying of his tennis light continues. This point is absolutely insane.

Adverts were way better back in the 1980s & 1990s.
Case study: Gregor Fisher. Photo booth. Comb-over. Hamlet cigar.
Good advertising was a cigar called Hamlet.
In 2024 the ICC ordered that all victims of the Lord's Resistance Army's atrocities must be paid a mighty $750 each. There was no money to pay it, as it knew, so it was never paid. Only one reparations order, for $250 each in respect of DRC, has resulted in a payment to victims.
#ICCProcess: At the end of an #ICC trial, in case of a conviction, victims can seek reparations for the harm they have suffered. Learn more ➡️ icc-cpi.int/about/victims
This isn't the kind of 'internet' threat politicians so often brag about. It's (allegedly) a hammer murderer. Even for non-Reform supporters, this does seem pertinent to Farage's widely-derided claims that threats against him were not being taken seriously by the establishment.
Very sorry to hear. Amazing woman.

A national treasure, undercover posh ladies, special hats, allegations, intrigue, farms in Exmoor and Suffolk, the King's equerry? If the equerry is a super posh Black guy whose brother-in-law is a Duke I think we can see where all this is going.

Astute stuff. Scottish parliament has some decent folk but this is pitiful. The system seems set up to serve as a PR device for government, party leaders and committee chairs. Bit more grit in the works would help.

Der Druck auf Ed Sheeran wächst. Laut »Guardian« steigen vier Bands und Acts aus seiner Tour aus – darunter der Bruder von Billie Eilish. Hintergrund ist der Eklat um die Pro-Palästina-Äußerungen von Rapper Macklemore. spiegel.de/panorama/leute/ed…
Without making any assumptions about cause of death, I feel truly sorry for this man's family. Relatively regular guy, if well connected, who might have made a terrible mistake once. A lot of the comments here are sympathetic: human face of X.

Glen Campbell. William Tell Overture.
A jaw-dropping display of guitar 🎸 playing coordination. Blazing-fast rapid alternate picking and musical showmanship.
Oh no. A great and lovely woman.
