Donald Trump popped into a waffle restaurant in Columbus, Georgia, on Saturday afternoon. The idea, presumably, was to create an impromptu moment – to present a man not rattled by the days ahead. The pre-positioned supporters suggest it was rather more pre-arranged. But there is no question that the former president looked relaxed, confident, and

A Police Scotland statement said: “A 52-year-old woman has today, Sunday, 11 June, 2023, been arrested as
Two years ago, during the lockdown, I wrote that I had become addicted to those little bird-box libraries that make walking here something of a literary pilgrimage. I’m still addicted. And almost two months ago, just before the writers strike began, I made a charming discovery–that one of my neighbors is a Very Famous Writer–
“This is Devon. Please call me.” I received semiregular texts like this that sent chills through my body. It either meant my agent had booked me for a photo or video shoot… or that he needed to discuss something he was upset with or confused about. Devon has lived here in Los Angeles for thirty-plus

“That’s not country.” It might be the most common phrase in all of country music right now, and at times, for good reason. Mainstream country has definitely veered pretty damn far off the path, and seems to be headed in the right direction as of late, but still, this conversation is nothing new. In a
Clark Griswold and Cousin Eddie were face to face once again this weekend — ’cause the actors who play ’em reunited for what seems to be the first time in a long time. Chevy Chase and Randy Quaid were yukking it up Saturday at the Fan Expo Dallas … a pop culture convention where a
Homeowners are being hit with a “Tory mortgage penalty” of £7,000, Labour has claimed, with interest rates triple what they were two years ago. Pat McFadden, shadow chief secretary to the Treasury, blamed what he called the “reckless economic gamble” taken by Liz Truss and Kwasi Kwarteng during their short stint in power. Labour’s analysis
Swimming books have been on my mind a lot lately. This is genuinely odd. Until fairly recently, I had a major fear of deep water and generally avoided water-based activities like the plague. After months of well-tailored swim lessons and DIY exposure therapy in a pool without a deep end, I can now enter a

Keep calm and carry on, advises the Internal Revenue Service. That’s after thousands of Californians were thrown into a panic this week when presented with demands that they pay their taxes owed in the next three weeks. The notices came even though those in counties considered affected by severe winter storms, flooding, and mudslides were
“Don’t speak ill of the dead” is a dumb idea. When people have caused massive suffering to others, and changed society for the worse, it’s good to speak ill of them. It helps to reaffirm our values, and to counter the wave of encomiums and eulogies that will inevitably accompany their death. So that
Brittney Griner was targeted in a “calculated confrontation” by a “social media figure and provocateur” Saturday as her WNBA team the Phoenix Mercury traveled through the Dallas Airport.
