Sunday night on BBC2. I remember taking notes. Why does modern television not do stuff like this? Guess it must be too expensive.

BBC4 is repeating the 1987 series The Great Philosophers, and I introduce it next Monday 13th at 22.30. I remember being very impressed when it went out that my wonderful PhD supervisor, Myles Burnyeat, was in the first episode!

I feel so much anger for those who continue to legitimize the Taliban. We warned the world it would worsen, for years. Of course the Taliban would shut down the internet. It was never a matter of ‘if’ – but when. Shame on you.

In plain sight. What is happening in America legitimises this, or at least softens the ground. It is scandalous. We must not stand by.

Don't let this go unnoticed. Even in a world full of hate and chaos, this must be noted. Is there anything we can do to open these men's minds? @GlobeEyeNews

As people prepare for being back at schools, today Gaza marked the highest number of deaths due to starvation. This is intentionally engineered by Israel. It is murder.

The absolute twits who are attacking me often mention that they are proudly Anglo Saxon. But worth remembering they were North Sea raiders, mercenaries, and Germanic settlers, who came illegally to Britain in small boats. I speak as a Celt, whose ancestors were here before them.

I've recently had a slew of hateful, sexist, misogynistic, ageist posts directed at me. Quite normal for any woman who speaks up. Those who send these posts are often anonymous (aka cowardly), bots, racists, threaten violence, and are usually extremely dim and ill informed.

Spot on. And not just the Beeb - @Nigel_Farage gets a very easy ride because he is treated as fellow commentator and fellow mainstream media critic of main parties. Never gets challenged on his Brexit role. Rarely on actual policy. Well said @EdwardJDavey
