Thought: The Slava-class cruiser that bombarded Zmiinyi Island, it’s TG that likely fired on neutral merchant ships and the amphib group in the Black Sea should not be permitted to exit via the Bosporus. Ever. Right?

Encyclopædia Britannica will continue to use ‘Gulf of Mexico’ for a few reasons: -We serve an international audience, a majority of which is outside the U.S. -The Gulf of Mexico is an international body of water, and the U.S.’s authority to rename it is ambiguous. 🧵⬇️

#StrictlyComeDancing Craig is just beyond a joke now with his comments at the end of the dances. He needs to be be let go before next year’s show. If someone’s good give some encouragement “sick” doesn’t cut it as a sentence I’m afraid🤬

Just returned from 4 train journeys through war-torn Ukraine, each over 500km. All arrived within 2 mins of the scheduled time. At Heathrow, the first thing I hear is Elizabeth Line trains are terminating at Paddington after a signals failure. Makes you proud to be British.

Welcome to Joel's Vinyl Adoption Agency 🐶🐱 21/45 This is a well loved copy of the debut Stiff Little Fingers album. Many marks etc. But who doesn't want a copy of the first LP released on Rough Trade? To adopt comment, "wasted life"

It's #NationalAuthorsDay! Aspiring authors should remember that Tom Clancy was an unknown insurance agent who had only published two short pieces in PROCEEDINGS magazine before @USNIbooks took a chance on THE HUNT FOR RED OCTOBER. He went on the sell over 100 million books.

30 years ago today, came the release of Massive Attack’s 2nd studio album “Protection”. Also released on this day in 1962 was one of the recurring collaborators Tracey Thorn. Wishing a big happy birthday to both. Here’s to “Better Things” @tracey_thorn @NewWaveAndPunk
