There’s a bit in the classic cyberpunk novel Neuromancer where someone has glasses essentially sewn into her face, and someone else gets a finger smudge on them.
Imagine.

Wasn’t there a thing in the 90s where people could get a piercing at the top of their nose and get glasses that attached to that so they didn’t need arms? I’m pretty sure that was a thing
That’s just made me feel really queasy
Noooooo
No no no no nononooooo
Huge Onion vibes in that headline
So Hadley Freeman leaks her own resignation letter to Private Eye, where she claims she couldn’t be transphobic enough (as if the Guardian would prevent that), claims that Guardian couldn’t say what they think about Corbyn (give me a fucking break) and finishes off with a dig at the main man himself.
She can write her Woody Allen piece in a different paper now, behind a paywall.
I haven’t read that Chiles M1 toilet column before!!! going to find it now, thanks Hadley. byyeeeeeeee!
edit: enjoyed this in the replies
Talking of the big man, here’s this week’s 3 paragraph banger.
I didn’t know Adrian had got married, congratulations to Adrian!
Reckon we should have a whip round and get a card?
Picturing Hadley trying to make a big show of carrying her box of work stuff out the office (plant, photo of family, collection of 80s VHS films) hoping for someone to say something. Unfortunately everyone ignores her and gathers round Adrian as he regales the audience with wedding stories about how two of the guests had their placecards mixed up.
Can’t believe that because of this article, our big brave boring Brummie boy is going to become the latest front in the culture wars.
Maybe the reason Viner was exasperatedly telling her to stop trying to submit pieces about trans people and Corbyn is that she was supposed to be writing for the culture and entertainment section?
“They say I’m in a culture war now. But how can I fight in a war when I can’t even get an appointment with the osteopath?”
before reading this I thought: I bet the answer is ‘gambling’ and I was right
What a deeply strange person.
