- Webcurios 31/03/23 - Reading Time: 34 minutes It’s Friday, it’s lunchtime, it’s practically the holidays and I just bought Arab Strap tickets – ALL IS RIGHT WITH THE WORLD! It’s not, of course – everything’s a benighted mess and liable to get worse before it gets better or, more accurately, we all die! – but let’s pretend otherwise as we, the Web…

- Webcurios 24/03/23 - Reading Time: 34 minutes Hello! Hi! How are you? I am TIRED (you didn’t ask, but seeing as you’re here…) having done a 60h round trip to Italy which involved signing documents in 87 separate places (I counted, and this is not an exaggeration) to the point where the final signature looked nothing like the initial one and my…

- Webcurios 17/03/23 - Reading Time: 38 minutes It does rather feel that The Onion ought to create a version of their ‘another mass shooting’ story for banking crises, doesn’t it? ““We don’t understand how the invisible hand failed to sort our mess out!”, screams only industry still holding faith in the invisible hand”, or perhaps something, you know, better. Meanwhile it’s been…

- Webcurios 10/03/23 - Reading Time: 36 minutes Do you feel UNDER THREAT? Do you feel like your sovereignty and security is being compromised by a bunch of poor fcuks so desperate to escape their current circumstances that they’re willing to risk life and limb to end up in THIS fcuking country? Do you believe that a certain BBC sports presenter shouldn’t have…

- Webcurios 03/03/23 - Reading Time: 36 minutes You know what the only thing worse than being governed by absolute cnuts? Being governed by stupid cnuts. Why is it that every time a tranche of texts belonging to the powerful get released they only serve to demonstrate what total and utter fcuking intellectual pygmies said powerful are? It happened with the Musktexts last…

- Webcurios 24/02/23 - Reading Time: 34 minutes TURNIPS! TURNIPS FOR ALL! It would be funny were it not so spleen-fcukingly enraging, wouldn’t it? Still, it meant the Star could do a funny frontpage again so that’s ok. Aside from anything else, Therese, when was the last time you ate a turnip? They are FCUKING DISGUSTING. Has anyone done that hilarious thing where they share…

- Webcurios 10/02/23 - Reading Time: 32 minutes Hello everyone! HELLO! One on the one hand it was fun this week watching Google’s PR fcukup with the whole ‘your AI search engine’s a liar LOL’ story; on the other, I can’t help but think that none of the serious coverage of this I have read in the media has spent quite enough time…

- Webcurios 03/02/23 - Reading Time: 28 minutes Have you had good weeks? I suppose the answer to that will depend on how much Shell stock you all own – LOL! – but I sincerely hope that regardless of your portfolio performance – LOL! – you’re all feeling relatively content and not too burnt out from another week of staggering cognitive dissonance (my…

- Webcurios 27/01/23 - Reading Time: 36 minutes Hi everyone! Hi! How are you! You know what, I feel…alright this week! The sun is shining, the heating is on, the days are getting longer and I have done my tax return – it’s all going to be ok! (On the subject of tax, by the way, a brief note on the Nadhim Zahawi…
