  12. Rarissime accident mortel de cycliste dans lequel aucun motorisé n'a été impliqué.
    On notera que les motorisés s'auto terminent très bien toustes seules... les cyclistes beaucoup moins souvent.

    RIP frangin.e ... Marie Blanque il y a pire risqué en descente (sur route*) dans le coin, mais c'est du gros quand même.

  17. BREAKING: Jason Arday, Cambridge University’s youngest Black Professor at one time, found dead at a property in south west London. He was 41. He was autistic. He had been accused of plagiarism at a different university, which cleared him in an investigation. Arday had recently resigned from Cambridge amidst the allegations and additional allegations that were personal in nature. Arday had received tons of abuse on social media and by right-wing newspaper commentators in the UK.
