In Bruges. Shockingly, we have people staging a Nazi reboot, this time in the United States. Stay close to the candles. And cancel Fox.

Personally, I'm really looking forward to the world returning the favour and taking the members of this shitty American government to the cleaners. Rubio should no longer be accepted through the front doors of any reputable establishment.

This is priceless. Check out how local news is reporting on Sen Eric Schmidt’s clown-show grilling of Jack Smith. They found Jack Smith at the game… “Top corner, section 109, row 1. In fact, that seat doesn’t even exist in Atlanta.”

It's sad isn't it, that arguably the greatest period of evolution in popular music, the 1950s, 60s and 70s, was not matched by our ability to record it all. We really are spoiled today by the possibilities we have to record anything and everything in such an effortless, ad-hoc manner. #livemusic

Today is Battle of Britain Day. 15 September 1940 was the battle's turning point. This is Squadron Leader Sandy Lane, 23 years old, of 19 Squadron, based at Duxford, Cambridgeshire, the first squadron to fly Spitfires. He was lost over the North Sea in 1942. May they all rest in peace. #WW2
