But as America continues to record multiple, daily, mass shootings, *The Onion*'s writers needed something else. Yesterday, they ran "Americans Describe What It’s Like Surviving A Mass Shooting," and oh shit is it a doozy:

If you’re disabled and standing as a candidate in parliamentary elections, you may be eligible for help with costs non-disabled candidates don’t face.
The Election Access Fund can help with these costs, such as support people.

ALT 3 people are facing the camera, 1 of whom is in a yellow & black wheelchair, & 1 who has a black assistance dog. They're posing in front of a cream draped curtain, on a black mat. It says "Election Access Fund" & has the Electoral Commission logo.

Hogan's Heroes ran 1965-1971:
A campy spy comedy set in a POW camp in Nazi Germany, which feels like a very weird choice.
In poor taste, honestly.
Learning about the actors has given me a new perspective:
First, every major German character was played by a Jewish actor.
ALT John Banner, Bob Crane, Werner Klemperer in Hogan's Heroes (1965).

Hi team. So people didn't fancy buying our place at auction (fair enough, I wouldn't either) which means we have a BEO now. If you'd like to retweet that'd be rad, we're getting wildly unsuitable offers from nutty people only atm.

If any of you have an in with Yahoo Mail ops, could you please ask them to unblock mail.flarn.com, the server I share with all of six people, none of whom are spammers? The fact that I can't send mail to people on Yahoo and its subdomains (eg AOL) is really hurting me.
