I know I’m with the woman I want to spend the rest of my life with… I won’t let this woman get away.
Literal or figurative? We’re going to find out now, aren’t we…

Syria: Sorry, We Cannot Hear You, We’re Kind Of Busy
Explosions in Homs yesterday caught on camera. It has been described as one of the heaviest examples of violence in Syria since the uprising against the government began a year ago. Image: BAMBUSER/HOMSLIVE.
Dear Syria.
Thank you for contacting us. Your call is important, but right now the weight of our own indifference is preventing us from coming to your assistance, sending aid or indeed giving a shit that your children are being tortured and murdered by your government.
Please hold. One of our operators will be with you eventually.
Kisses,
The World.
Lingerie Football League: A Revolution In Spandex
I’m willing to wager that I’m not the first person whose been inspired to action by this picture. Image: WILLIAM WEST/AFP/GettyImages.
While we’ve all been concentrating on the well-intentioned (but ultimately pointless) battle to keep sport out of politics, the US based Lingerie Football League have been working their lacy knickers off on an entirely different project. And to be fair to them, their campaign to introduce porn into American Football has been so successful, it seems pointless to try and stem the inevitable tide of unexpected nudity.
There must be a way to turn this to our advantage.

Rebekah Brooks: Bringing Some Levity To Leveson

It’s all got bit serious here lately.
Let’s lighten things up by looking at this photo of Rebekah Brooks as she frantically tries to remember the penalty for lying under oath.
Remember, folks. No matter how awful your day has been so far, you can be assured that your failure to persuade the photocopier to operate properly is not being watched by thousands of people who are willing you to slip up and bring an entire government to it’s knees.
It’s all about perspective, y’see.
Countryside Alliance: Systemic Statement Fail
A woman reacts with shock as she advised that her green jacket will offer no protection from the long arm of the law. Image: via the Telegraph.
The RSPCA have been accused of pursuing a political agenda after pressing charges against four members of the Heythrop hunt – which in the past has enjoyed the patronage of David Cameron. Vanessa Lambert, Richard Sumner, Duncan Hume and Julian Barnfield are all accused of hunting with dogs in contravention of the 2004 Hunting Act. Aside from Cameron, the hunt enjoys the support of such luminaries as Rebekah Brooks and Jeremy Clarkson.
The Countryside Alliance, who, according to their website act in the interests of rural people, said:
The RSPCA’s decision to bring such a huge prosecution is a blatant political attack on hunting and an abuse of the court system.
To clarify (just in case any of you reading this are as stupid as the Countryside Alliance thinks you are), they believe it’s an abuse of the court system to prosecute a crime. Does that mean if everyone puts on red jackets and posh accents before committing a crime, they can then dismiss their prosecution as “bad law” and away with it?
Well, it’s no more illogical than the argument that killing animals is a fun way to spend a Saturday morning, I suppose.
AA Gill: Refined, But Essentially Still A Troll

The egalitarian internet. That most open of spaces where comment is not only free, it’s rapidly becoming a bigger talking point than the original prose it responds to.

There’s No ‘I’ In Mass Murder: Cashing In On Controversy
Looking for accessories for the next rally? All the smart fascists are heading down to Thor Steinar.
Congratulations to clothing company Thor Steinar, whose recent attempt to cash in on the current publicity surrounding the trial of Anders Breivik was admirable, if ultimately unsuccessful.

Oh Gav. If only you’d have been wearing your body map shirt on Saturday morning. Then you might have remembered that being drunk on a flight and aggravating fellow passengers by throwing ice cubes at them is not conducive to rebuilding your career and representing your country at the sport you love.
Well, you’ve got plenty of time to think about it now, haven’t you?
