Why the Guardian is going down the pan!

The author is a theoretical physicist specialising in quantum gravity. I would have expected him to at least understand the assumptions better and why they were wrong.
This is the thing most people even those with little grasp of maths would have said. "Well it might".

It was his bold assumption that it couldn't possibly happen because there were more tiles than grains of rice so the rice would fall equally upon the tiles. I mean, for fucks sake, this guy should know better than most this is utter bollocks.

Yes, I got your point. Platter could be read as a collection plate as well, but I don't think it's intentional.
head on a plate is from the bible

It’s pretty disgraceful that cartoon. Starmer as Bad Jew Herod with Good Jew St John the Baptist’s head on a plate. He know what he’s saying, Bell

Which is where Starmer gets his feminised butter-wouldn't-melt expression. Not that I'm saying it's therefore unproblematic.
 
The Simon Jenkins missive that protesting is a waste of time and achieves nothing has to be peak capitalist realism The world is rocked by protest – but does taking to the streets ever work? | Simon Jenkins It achieves nothing, but it used to, but not now Eastern Europe blah blah blah poll tax etc etc

But then the Washing post could print this a a year ago "In a new study, we systematically examine how citizens have sought to promote democracy in about 150 countries. Here’s what we find: Industrial workers have been key agents of democratization and, if anything, are even more important than the urban middle classes."

simon simon simon get to bed you tired boy.
 
The Titian (which it also highly resembles) has no Herodias - almost as if he (Bell) thought putting a behind the scenes paymaster in may not have been a good idea.

Day 9: Arzua's colonnaded streets lead into open country where local farmers wear berets as they tend vines and build haystacks with pitch forks. Your route rises and falls through river valleys, crossing rushing streams. This evening you can marvel at Javier's breathtaking converted water mill, where original machinery has been turned into spectacular period features.

From the Guardian's self-guided walking tour along the last bit of the pilgrimage route to Santiago de Compostela. Yours for a mere £2,089 for the ten days (not including flights).
