Myspace owners plan comeback for the iconic social network

Myspace may be poised for a comeback. Chris and Tim Vanderhook, the brothers who purchased the platform from News Corp via their company Specific Media (now part of Viant Technology), have confirmed that they’re actively planning to relaunch the iconic social network. Speaking in Tommy...

I mean, I guess there is a reason she is a drama queen…

"Ed Sheeran has been convicted and fined for failing to insure his classic Aston Martin while it was being restored and converted to an electric car.

The singer-songwriter sent the the silver 1966 model for an overhaul in 2021, but in December 2025 the DVLA spotted Sheeran had not paid for insurance while restoration work was under way.

Sheeran, 35, told Bradford Magistrates' Court on Friday by letter that he believed the workshop's insurance covered his car and the Aston Martin had not been on the road for the past five years.

But he pleaded guilty to keeping a motor vehicle which does not meet insurance requirements and was ordered to pay a £666 fine, £100 costs and a £266 victim surcharge."

I mean Sheeran is an annoyance but who the F is the 'victim' surcharge for in this case?

It doesn’t go to any specific victim to do with that case. It’s like a court service charge and goes into a pool of money for general victim support and counselling for all cases.

Perez Hilton: Ambulance Seen Transporting Man Outside His Home Following Frightening Livestream

A man believed to be Perez Hilton has been transported to a nearby hospital after deputies rushed to his Miami home, following multiple reports that someone inside was live-streaming acts of self-harm on social media, TMZ has learned.

Perez Hilton was livestreaming last night reportedly harming himself and covered in blood. I've not seen any videos but saw a still image and it's pretty graphic. He's clearly very mentally ill.

I've not kept up with recent updates at all (who has!?) but he's recently found god and has been spouting rambling Christian content for a while now. I hope he gets the help he needs, sounds like he needs to get offline. I'm pretty sure he has kids! :(
 
I read that twice as "hamming himself" and wondered what new sexual deviancy I'd somehow not heard of...
 
Jesus, I've watched some fucked up videos in my time but that one was wild.
 
He's covered in what appears to be blood, head to toe, and is naked, running a knife across various parts of his body and moaning. I didn't see any actual cutting in the clip I saw and there's some speculation that maybe it's faked to some degree but dunno.

Then he's in the right place.

I'm not going to watch it, what did he do?

Basically what @dUb said, he keeps running a big kitchen knife over his body and then face, blood streaming down. I did think it looked borderline fake as it happens, like something out of a b-movie.

Even if it's fake, he live-streamed it. That's absolutely wild/ mental/ troubling.

I bet you were already planning on picking up a leg of jamón ibérico on the way home and popping the anal dilator in the dishwasher, weren't you?

Don't be ridiculous! At this time of year!? You can only get one in Lidl at Christmas.

No idea about the Jamón, though...
 
OT: I once bought Mr Sheena a Lidl leg of Jamón for Christmas as he loves it. Wrapped it up, put it under the tree, the works. He opened it, entirely nonplussed and was clearly really ungrateful about it. I tried to get him in the mood on Christmas night, opened it up and tried to serve it alongside the COLD CUTS but he seemed to still not care. We got Christmas Day drunk, had a blazing row and he stormed to bed whilst I sat at the back door and smoked lots, forgetting to close the kitchen door. Next morning, we got up to find two cats pawing at said leg of ham in the kitchen, to which he came in the bedroom screaming about how I'd ruined it, to which I retorted that he never wanted it anyway, a row that culminated in me lobbing the whole thing at him, him ducking out of the way and it landing in the garden, where neither of us could be arsed to retrieve it for most of the day and got amused looking at various animals picking at it instead.

ALWAYS RAISES A SMILE.
