Someone stole $950 worth of items from a Walgreens — there were 309 news stories about it.

Walgreens was caught stealing $4.5 million from employees — it got just one single story.

drugged by an informant and murdered in his sleep at the age of 21 by the Chicago police while his wife, nine months' pregnant, was detained in the adjacent room. The police claimed they had been attacked; this was false, as has been proven.

My favourite knife, which I’d had for 20 years broke earlier this year. A friend gave me a gift voucher to get a new one made by master craftsman Rory Conner.

We visited Rory in his workshop during the summer, and I ordered two new knives. They arrived last week.

A year ago today, I announced my exile while in Demark on an official visit. This is the moment being recorded by Danish media. Still heavy to look at even after so long. My heart for a free Hong Kong never changed, though.https://t.co/g6QT7kxHfJ

Wild. Prof David Miller was cleared of antisemitism in *two* internal reports, but fired by Bristol University anyway.
