- Webcurios 10/03/17 - Reading Time: 31 minutes OH MY GOD THAT FEELS BETTER. Not that you care, but this bit is always the last thing I write in Curios; as I’m typing this it’s almost impossible to prevent a slow smile of relief from plastering itself across my hideous countenance as I luxuriate in the feeling of having purged myself of internet…

- Webcurios 17/10/16 - Reading Time: 29 minutes So I always start this off with some slightly laboured whine about how shit everything is, and how the world is going to hell in a handcart, and how this has been the worst week ever. I really don’t have the heart today. It’s not like the world needs any more words about how fucked…

- Webcurios 19/08/16 - Reading Time: 30 minutes Ordinarily I’d kick this off with some sort of tedious screed about how terrible everything is – I’d be right to do so, everything is terrible – but seeing as we’ve only got three more days of TEAM GB OLYMPIAN SOMA left in the can, let’s just crack right on with the GOOD INTERNET STUFF…

- Webcurios 22/07/16 - Reading Time: 28 minutes It’s probably not going to happen. It’s probably not going to happen. It’s probably not going to happen. If we all repeat this, mantra-like, whilst thinking only of the good things, then surely by collective will we can stop the Trump horrorshow, can’t we? NO OF COURSE WE CAN’T. What we want has at best…

- Webcurios 10/06/16 - Reading Time: 26 minutes Two more weeks of this. Two more weeks of endless bleating about FACTS and LIES and POTENTIAL ARMAGEDDON and FILTHY IMMIGRANTS COMING HERE STEALING OUR JOBS and HUNDREDS OF MILLIONS OF POUNDS OF WASTE and VOTER REGISTRATION FCUKUPS (good to see this campaign really took off, by the way) and oh God I am so,…

- Webcurios 07/06/16 - Reading Time: 26 minutes Isn’t Tory Party Conference a heartwarming thing? There’s nothing like seeing a bunch of socially awkward oddities indulging in their peculiar interpretation of ‘fun’ whilst simultaneously working out exactly how hard they can get away with fcuking the country over the course of the coming 5 years. Thanks, Theresa! Thanks, Amber! Thanks, Jeremy! Thanks, all…

- Webcurios 03/06/16 - Reading Time: 30 minutes In a week in which the British press reached something of a new low in terms of headlines – and let’s all take a moment to give thanks at the thought that the natural consumers of this sort of vile crap are all going to be dead within a decade or so, thank Christ, thereby…

- Webcurios 27/05/16 - Reading Time: 29 minutes In a week in which both typography and political campaigning reached a simultaneous new nadir, and in which despite everything going on the in the world the news has somehow been dominated by a once-beautiful Portuguese narcissist’s new job, it’s good to know that we have three days of uninterrupted heavy drinking to look forward…

- Webcurios 20/05/16 - Reading Time: 30 minutes Turns out Copenhagen is lovely, like some sort of LEGO model socialist utopia with lovely food and free, EU-funded coffee (HEAR THAT, BREXIT PEOPLE?). But I’m back now, and although we have a new mayor everything’s still pretty horrid, so what was the point of going on holiday anyway, eh? What? To give you a…

- Webcurios 06/05/16 - Reading Time: 26 minutes WE DONE A DEMOCRACY! Well done us. At the time of writing it’s still unclear whether London made the RIGHT choice in the Mayorals, but still, well done us on being bothered to take 10 minutes out of our day to contribute to the illusion of political choice (right, kids!). Of course, the Americans are…
