  • Dr Rahmeh Aladwan, 31, appeared at the Old Bailey earlier charged with four counts of inviting support for the proscribed group by posting comments online between 23 July and 31 December 2025.

    It is alleged she wrote: “I don’t condemn Hamas. I don’t condemn October 7,” and “I condemn the existence of Israel” in a post on 23 July.

    Aladwan, from Pilning near Bristol, is also accused of using threatening or abusive insulting words at a protest in London on 21 July, and stirring up racial hatred in written material on 19 November.

  • Not the question you’re asking, but if it’s going to stick around for a while you can graft material from any tasty apple tree onto any other apple tree and that branch will give you tasty apples.

    There are companies that go through and change over entire grown orchards to a new kind of apple, lopping off all branches and shoving in a few inches of scion material from the desired variety into each branch stump. They grow to full sized branches shockingly quickly and produce the next year.

    I think the issue is that the mouth is laughing and the eyes are not.

    Only 2% of people show top and bottom teeth when they smile (complex smile). So it is unusual / can be starting to see such a big smile like that. Marylin Monroe, Julia Roberts, Kiera Knightly and Margot Robbie all have them and do not look creepy.

    Look at the way the eyes crinkle here:

    But this very posed photo of Marylin Monroe looks like she is reacting to a gut punch rather than laughing, because her eyes aren’t matching her mouth’s expression:











  • That’s not a regular toilet though, that one has a warm water massaging jet for your nethers. That sounds like a downright pleasant way to eat lunch.

    The article is kind of sweet though, universities are coming up with ways to help students who are embarrassed to eat alone and are turning to the toilets for solace.
