Iceland has a web page for the upcoming presidential election. You can go in and enter your name in support of a candidate. In an attempt to do so, apparently 11 people accidentally registered as candidates and are now running for president. Looking forward to the TV debates.

The Princess of Wales is missing and the spare Prince is in exile and the King is treating his cancer with herbs. If this were the 1300s France would be looking to invade.

Christmas is fraught with tough family conversations, particularly to do with religion and politics. This year, I have decided to diffuse tension by interjecting commentary on the political issues only I care about: opposing the policies of Louis XIV. I'll do some examples:

I saw this movie when I was 23 and thought, “Man, what a lunatic!” I saw it at 33 and thought, “I mean, I guess he might have a point in there somewhere At 43, it became “Well, ok. I kind of get it, now. Today at 53 “I have no problem with anything this man is doing”

I have reached an age where I have stopped pretending like an IPA is a good beer.

What was that brewer’s meeting like? We’ve created a beverage that tastes like drinking orange juice after you’ve brushed your teeth!

Alright, get in guys, it's time for a 🧵on war crimes and how to identify them.

We're going to look at two incidents which happened less than one month apart in 1944 through the lens of just war theory.

Trump: I was very honored, there’s a man, Viktor Orbán. He’s the leader of Turkey

An incredibly tough but fascinating interview with Ukrainian military medic Yuriy Armash. Yuriy was captured by Russians in the early days of the war and recently released in a prisoners' swap. In captivity, he helped hundreds of tortured Ukrainians to survive. A must read 1/

Mig en gåde, hvorfor Danmarks travleste station skal ligne en dårlig parodi på en DDR-dystopi tilsat 20 års atomvinter. I det mindste kunne man skrælle alle paneler væk, fjerne de klaustrofobiske sænkede lofter og blotlægge de gamle hvælvinger. Tror stadig kaklerne sidder der.

A brilliant 🇸🇪 cartoon. The TV presenter switches from the news to the weather. That’s our world today.

I heard a photographer was killed in a freak accident when a large wheel of cheddar landed on her.

To be fair, the people who were being photographed did try to warn her.

My wife told me to take the spider out instead of killing him.

Went out. Had a few drinks. Nice guy. He's a web designer.

This advert is EPIC. And I don't even know what a toastie loaf is or how to buy one!

For helvede, @Politiken. Indstil @Jakobsorgenfri til både Cavling og FUJ-graverprisen. Fantastisk historie og fortælleform: "Korrekturlæser døde ensomt i en ussel Vesterbro-lejlighed og efterlod hemmelig millionformue til 'sympatiske kværulanter" Gavelink https://t.co/rg9m6ne9JM
