On the Brunch radar

Here’s a round-up of things we loved this week, and those that ought to be shoved.

Here’s a round-up of things we loved this week and those that ought to be shoved.

Love it:

* All the writers who have returned their Sahitya Akademi awards

* The new season of The Affair. I wish they showed it in India!

* Mixing contraceptives with pigeon food to control the kabootar population #ProChoice

* Marcos Yury, a Brazilian fella singing Tujh Mein Rab Dikhta Hai as a tribute to SRK. Uff, bade bade desh, choti choti baatein

* Neon-coloured fabric bindis

Shove it:

* TrulyMadly’s Creep Qawwali with AIB. Meh

* Abhijeet Bhattacharya

* That (presumably unauthorised) photos of Justin Bieber’s you-know-what were published and then circulated on the Internet

* The photos made his dad proud. (No, wait. It actually gets worse.) He tweeted to Bieb asking, “What do you feed that thing?”

* That Facebook UK pays less tax than the average British worker
