Metaphor Alert

London Underground station Clapham Junction this evening

Or something more sinister?

We may never know.

Large parts of the country were without electricity following the power cut, UK Power Networks said, with outages reported in the North West, South West, the Midlands and Wales.

The UK Power Networks tweeted on Friday evening: “We’re aware of a power cut affecting large parts of London and South East.

“We believe this is due to a failure on National Grid’s network, which is affecting our customers.”

            i (genuinely) hope he does come back

            it was a little spat, no big deal

            BS’s biggest quality* imo is there’s space for all sorts and all perspectives (*aside from the headlines)

    For three days I fought my way along roads packed with refugees, the homeless, burdened with boxes and bundles containing their valuables. All that was of value to me was in London. By the time I reached their little red brick house, Carrie and her father were gone…

    Fire suddenly leapt from house to house, the population panicked and ran and I was swept along with them, aimless and lost without Carrie. Finally I headed eastward for the ocean, and my only hope of survival: A boat out of England…

    Altogether now, especially there at the back

    “I watch the birds fly south across the autumn sky
    And one by one they disappear
    I wish that I was flying with them
    Now you’re not here”

    The Daily mail article on Prince Andrew having sex with 17 year old Virginia is factually incorrect. It reports she was “underage at the time”. The legal age in the UK is 16 . If the Mail get such basic facts wrong it would make you query accuracy of reporting but then sensationalism sells newspapers.

          -did this get picked up?

          ‘Another politician accused by Giuffre is George Mitchell, the former Democratic leader of the Senate and Bill Clinton’s Special Envoy for Northern Ireland (and later President Obama’s envoy to the Middle East). Mitchell built a renowned legacy as a statesman. In a 2003 profile of Epstein for Vanity Fair, the former Senator and Army counterintelligence officer praised Epstein: “He has supported some philanthropic projects of mine and organized a fund-raiser for me once. I would certainly call him a friend and a supporter.” The feeling was mutual, with Epstein regarding Mitchell as “the world’s greatest negotiator.”
