In other, other news the Reform party recently declared a £9 million donation from the CEO of Tether, the largest ever single political donation in UK history. If one looks at the date the donation was made - rather than when it was declared - one can see the leader of Reform started to publicly speak favourably about cryptocurrency shortly after receiving the money. Mr Farage continues to maintain that the donor does not expect anything in return. In other, other, other news, the sky is in fact green.

A few years ago she won a bid on a Nintendo 64 with one controller. She found another controller somewhere, and started investing in old game cartridges. I pointed out that those games are available now on modern hardware via emulation, but she says there's something satisfying with having physical cartridges of single games.

I was playing Yooka-Laylee the other day and a message on the loading screen make me chuckle: "If cartridges were still cool this would have loaded by now."

It's perfectly possible to be left-wing on economic issues and right-wing on issues of liberty. There's more than one left-right axis.

Imagine a person who is against all form of taxation and government interference in private business, but also vehemently opposed to the government dictating what consenting adults do in their own bedrooms.
Is this person left-wing, right-wing, both or neither?

Labour may be notionally on the left when it comes to the economics of the country, though nowhere nearly as much as they were in the past, but they've also had a bit of an authoritarian streak in recent decades.
