Recently, MSE staff have started to ask themselves philosophical questions like: Why do washing machines have windows and dishwashers don't? Why aren't clothes sizes the same everywhere? Why don't toaster have windows?

Have you been having these random debates with yourself?

I was just about to tweet something and I asked my husband: “Is this funny?”
He had a look and replied, “It’s a totally functional joke.”

In Harry Potter & the Cursed Child, Snape makes his first appearance with his back to the audience. At the dress rehearsal I saw him in his long black wig & my eyes filled with tears because, for a split second, my irrational heart believed when Snape turned round, I'd see Alan. https://t.co/qC3xxmwz3d
