On a 8am train from Dortmund to Stuttgart (3.5 hours, total price €30) and these lads were drinking pints for €2.50, literally cheaper than my coffee. Another world is possible

Mistakenly released prisoner Billy Smith turns himself in Smith, 35, was released in error from Wandsworth prison on same day he was jailed for fraud

The whole "OMG a prisoner has been mistakenly released" thing is such shit. No one gave a toss till it was an asylum seeker released.Last year, 262 prisoners - five a week - were released from prisons/courts before they should have been. Zero front-page reporting.

Japan's "Mundane Halloween" costume contest is back!

Each year website DailyPortalZ holds a contest where people dress up as something super duper ordinary.

Here's a thread of some of my favorites from the 2025 contest!

Imo having one’s cake and eating it in this respect is going to an evening service. Restful day, but then church at a time when I’d otherwise be watching TV.

The thing that makes Star Trek utopian isn’t the end of scarcity or the harmony between all peoples it’s also that the guy on the ship who gets laid the most plays the trombone at work and periodically does community theater

What?? No! But I thought they were just legitimately concerned mums & dads, not like the rotten terrorists holding up bits of card saying "genocide's bad"

I went with the refunded 5p credit card check instead. Just didn’t fancy my face being used in that way.

I was explaining to my Ukrainian colleague the phrase β€˜There’s no such thing as a free lunch’. She told me the equivalent in Ukrainian is β€˜The only free cheese is in the mousetrap’ - which is so much better

Find it shocking that the story about the Afghan files is being turned into a story about immigration on R4 by Rajan and Healy. This is about public scrutiny, government decision-making, doing right by those who've supported the British armed forces and British operations overseas. Not immigration.

I thought I’d disabled notifications from the dark place but apparently not, and after well over a year of nothing it just decided to share this with me
