    Since EA were in front of a Commons committee last week trying to claim lootboxes aren't gambling but "surprise mechanics" (yes, they actually used that term) I wonder how long before somebody other than Jim Sterling unearths this clip of somebody from the gaming industry laying bare how predatory the monetisation practices within the industry are - and not as a criticism, but actually reveling in it

    I remember a certain Dr Beeching arranging the scrapping of stations and rail lines all over. Now they wished he hadn't done it because the roads today are so congested.

    Basically what I've said save the Trump part. Clearly some **** has gone down/come close/being considered which nobody is telling us.

    Only thing that vaguely stood out in the news was the Russian sub deaths, but it seems unlikely to be that.
    Probably something stupid that the administration has done and they need to get their story straight.

    I thought 'Incontinentia' was a great alternative, but 'Anazinutta' is a work of comic genius! <laugh><laugh>

    A quick warning: whatever you do, do not click anything related to The Little Mermaid in Twitter's trending tab

    You'll thank me for this piece of advice...

    Just to save anyone wondering how this can be vaguely controversial, there's a live remake and they've cast a black actress as the lead.

    This couldn't have been better-timed if it were a set-up

    Oh, and this might be important...

    Is she a bit special?
    I think it would be wrong for British MEPs to vote on any top job with the possibility of us leaving the Union very soon, those votes could make a big difference to something we will have no part in and those left behind could regret that.

    By the same token, all those old people shouldn't have voted for Brexit.
