WTF?

An African doing white face and making fun of Americans? I feel personally attacked.

Where’s the outrage? Where’s the crying and screaming? I’m literally shaking. pic.twitter.com/AekwUriwAm

A little late but still worth it.

A former BBC News boss has claimed she was driven out of the top job by trans activists.

Fran Unsworth, the director of BBC News from 2018-2022, said she had been bullied out of the role by gender ideologues employed by the corporation.

Speaking for the first time since leaving the BBC, Ms Unsworth said: “I would actually say it drove me out, just dealing with the progressive editorial issues and the bullying around them all. It was incredibly difficult.”

Archaeologists working in Egypt have discovered a remarkable combination of Homeric epic and Egyptian ritual: a 2,000-year-old mummy with a papyrus fragment of the “Iliad” sealed in a clay packet outside its wrappings.

It is the first time a literary work has been found playing a functional, spiritual role in the mummification process. And it suggests that for a Roman-era Egyptian, the “Iliad” — specifically some lines from Book 2’s “Catalogue of Ships” — was perhaps as crucial for navigating the afterlife as a magical spell.

Big library fine I bet.

More than half of the 118 comments removed by moderators from a map showing possible routes for Canada’s proposed high-speed rail project should never have been taken down, according to Alto.

The Crown corporation behind the project now says a total of 71 posts made by members of the public will be added back to the map by the end of this week.

Those posts included two comments — one made by a teenager worried about his home, the other by an 84-year-old who had concerns about Canadian agriculture — that were already reinstated after CBC raised questions about why they had been pulled down.

Walgreens is shuttering a location in Chicago, upsetting residents, and stirring fury among exploitative and complicit politicians. The way some local “leaders” tell it, the drugstore chain is acting greedily, selfishly, or even criminally.

“Walgreens should be charged with first-degree corporate abandonment,” thundered a local alderman. “It should be a crime, the way they’re treating our elders. It should be a crime, the way they’re treating our families.”
