- Webcurios 17/11/17 - Reading Time: 28 minutes Russia! Sexpests! Brexit! Mugabe! And that’s just the past 6 hours I’ve been writing this damn thing. Web Curios may take a week off but the world certainly doesn’t, as evidenced by the absolute tsunami of links about to engulf you. I am tired, you are tired, we are ALL tired. As we limp towards…

- Webcurios 08/09/17 - Reading Time: 28 minutes One of the unfortunate side-effects of the filter bubble in which I find myself is that I’ve notmanaged to stumble across any examples of right-wing climate change deniers desperately attempting to explain away the BIG WEATHER in terms that don’t involve, you know, ACCEPTED SCIENCE. Still, it’s good to know that there’s a positive side-effect…

- Webcurios 01/09/17 - Reading Time: 27 minutes Mist! Mellow fruitfulness! Decay, rot, dampness and the annual reminder that everything tends towards entropy and entropy means, biologically speaking, death! That’s right everyone, it’s SEPTEMBER! I mean, the seasons are all so banjaxed with climate change that this is sort of meaningless, but I though I might wax lyrical at the advent of the…

- Webcurios 25/08/17 - Reading Time: 26 minutes There was meant to be one of these last week. I had dragged myself from my pit at 6am as per normal, drunk unconscionable quantities of appallingly-stewed tea and spaffed out about 6,500 words before a stray swipe of a sausagefinger on trackpad condemned each and every single one of those words – and they…

- Webcurios 11/08/17 - Reading Time: 30 minutes There was meant to be a Curios last week, but I had to go to a wedding. Sorry about that. Also, if I’m entirely honest, there was going to be one until I fcuked up the CMS and lost 4000 words of TOP QUALITY PROSE and was too dispirited to contemplate starting again. So it goes. Anyway,…

- Webcurios 28/07/17 - Reading Time: 24 minutes In a largely unanticipated development this week, the discovery by the idiot rump of the world that moral philosophy is A Thing and that it is HARD and COMPLICATED has made me almost wish for the return of politics, not to mention making me agree with Melanie Phillips. UNPRECENDENTED. Anyway, that was the week that was…

- Webcurios 21/07/17 - Reading Time: 26 minutes SURPRISE CURIOS! Yes, that’s right, despite having spent the better part of the past week in a somewhat parlous state and certainly very far away from the web, I have still managed to find enough webspaff to fill the strangely-shaped receptacle that is this blog/newsletter/mess. Aren’t I clever – or, more to the point, isn’t it nice…

- Webcurios 30/06/17 - Reading Time: 26 minutes Curios in successive weeks – truly, you are BLESSED. Thanks one and all for the overwhelming reaction to our return last week (there obviously wasn’t one, but my Mum reads this so it’s nice to occasionally give her the illusion that she’s not the only one); it’s so good to be back! Anyway, it’s been…

- Webcurios 23/06/17 - Reading Time: 32 minutes I know that none of you asked for this, but here we are, back again like Daniel (retro meme reference for you there, don’t ever let it be said that late 30s advermarketingprcunt is out of touch with the kids, yeah?). It’s good to see you again; you’re looking well, if a bit tired and,…
