Running until 1942 the diaries cover the start of the Second World War as well as Orwell’s own travels to Morocco following the illness and injuries he sustained while fighting in Catalonia during the...

How the fuck do they do it?
I have a new appreciation for the people who serve in our nation’s armed forces.

“Dr Mitchell, 77, said during a radio interview that sources at the space agency who had had contact with aliens described the beings as “little people who look strange to us”.”
The interview, as the article explains, conveniently coincides with the release of the new X-Files movie. Probably because no one really gives a shit about...
