- Webcurios 10/05/19 - Reading Time: 31 minutes HELLO! NORMAL SERVICE IS ONCE AGAIN RESUMED! That’s right, it’s ME! Not the algoversion – honest – but the REAL BOY, all flesh and sebum and mucus. ISN’T IT NICE TO HAVE ME BACK? The website should have been fixed, the mailer software should be working…all that remains is for me to finish penning this…

- Webcurios 26/04/19 - Reading Time: 28 minutes I AM BACK HELLO DID YOU MISS ME? No, of course not, you were all too busy stuffing yourselves with confectionery and weeping over the stigmata of the risen Christ, weren’t you? Typical. Have you had a good fortnight? Have you ‘enjoyed’ watching people getting unaccountably cross at some children asking us to maybe not…

- Webcurios 12/04/19 - Reading Time: 35 minutes We had a species-defining moment this week – one of those rare times within a lifetime where you can step back and say “yep, that felt pretty significant, shame I’ll be worms by the time the long-term implications of it are known”. Yet did we stop staring at our jizz-filled navels long enough to enjoy…

- Webcurios 05/04/19 - Reading Time: 33 minutes “We did the democracy!” That is an actual, direct quote from former Telegraph editor, Thatcher’s biographer and establishment pillar Charles Moore, on TV last night, about Brexit. We oughtn’t have another vote because ‘we did the democracy’. Whatever your thoughts on the rightness or wrongness of going through this hugely enjoyable experience all over again…

- Webcurios 29/03/19 - Reading Time: 33 minutes So THIS is what control feels like! How novel, at yet simultaneously how utterly familiar! Yes, that’s right, it’s BREXIT DAY, on which we are all honour-bound to paint our faces with the cross of St George and to drink pints of warm bitter until the blood vessels in our faces burst with happy pride…

- Webcurios 22/03/19 - Reading Time: 29 minutes ONE WEEK TO GO! OR NOT! As Schrodinger’s Brexit sits patiently in its box, we anxiously await the big reveal. Is it alive? Is it dead? IS IT IN FACT WE WHO ARE DEAD, KILLED BY TERMINAL BOREDOM? Obviously that’s all rhetorical – I have no idea! Neither do you! Neither does anyone else! Watching…

- Webcurios 15/03/19 - Reading Time: 32 minutes I had a whole thing ready to go in my head last night about TWO WEEKS TO GO and all that jazz, but a) I was quite stoned and so it was almost certainly awful; and b) the news this morning was so horrific that I don’t really feel in the mood for making funnies…

- Webcurios 08/03/19 - Reading Time: 31 minutes What’s been YOUR favourite stupid this week? SO MUCH TO CHOOSE FROM! It’s nice of the powers that be to ensure that the ‘Brexit’ box set we’ve all been enjoying for the past couple of years doesn’t peter out towards its denouement – though does anyone else get the feeling that, muchlike in Lost, the…

- Webcurios 01/03/19 - Reading Time: 31 minutes First up, an apology from me to you for screwing up the html quite so spectacularly last week; hopefully this week the links should work and the words should be readable and the only issues you ought to encounter are the ones born of authorial inadequacy rather than the peculiar strain of CMS-luddism I appear…

- Webcurios 22/02/19 - Reading Time: 21 minutes A NEW PARTY! JUST WHAT WE ALL WANTED! Except it’s not the good sort of party, the type with party rings and sausage rolls and a secret stash of uppers that you find at 3am in the host’s sock drawer and which you know will add a whole new spin to the gathering – no,…
