If this doesn't inspire you to get off your ass and save our democracy, nothing will. In this moment in history, as Trump is systematically destroying the republic, this is the most consequential video y'all are going to see.

39 years ago today, Blackadder II was first screened. It introduced probably the most popular and iconic incarnation of Edmund, absolutely nailed by Rowan Atkinson. Preview in The Radio Times appears below. Where does S2 rank for you? #Blackadder

Ireland awarded a 4-1 victory. England players right to walk off, if racism occurred, but seems an innocent misunderstanding. Ireland coach Graham Gartland said his player called the English lad a muppet - not monkey - for pushing him in the back. Muppet = gobshite = idiot.
England walk off the pitch against Ireland the U15 World Cup after one of their players alleges he was called a monkey

It is now 37 years ago that the last episode of #Blackadder Goes Forth was screened. This TV gold concluded 3 hrs of unmatched of comedy to many of us. But there was a deeper message throughout encapsulated in this moving final scene. Vid: BlackadderQtes

Yesterday, after his rally in Iowa, President Trump was heading to the airport when he saw an old woman walking home — in the dark and all alone. “Stop the car, Daquan!” He told his driver. He got out and walked her 2 miles home. No cameras. Just kindness. That’s Trump.
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
The anecdote is fictional. Trump's Oct. 22 rally was at Sioux Gateway Airport in Sioux City; his schedule shows direct arrival and departure from the site with no such walk. x.com/WHPressPool/st… ktiv.com/2026/10/21/how… desmoinesregister.com/story/news/pol… The photo is AI-generated and unrelated to any real event.

They just can’t help themselves
This Thomas Markle story is shocking, and if guilty, he must face full force of the law. But it raises a lot of questions: if police alerted Meghan in 2018 to allegations so serious she ended all contact, why was he not arrested? And why did she not go public to protect others?
