I seem to have gone unintentionally viral recently so I’ve dropped personal details from here. I’m sure you understand.

I’m thinking this is a good idea. I’ve not read enough in the last few years so keeping notes might help me to the bottom of my pile of shame.

I'm going to do an ongoing thread of books I've read and enjoyed this year — in part to remind myself, but also because I've had some really helpful reading recommendations here over the years — it's one of the under-acknowledged things that this site does very well indeed. 🧵.

I find the scary clown who appears in my bathroom mirror gives better and more accurate advice than grok.

I was leaving King’s Cross today back in 2005 when the alarms went off. The train they’d bombed was a couple behind mine. I couldn't get home, so a guy I barely knew put me up on his settee. A few years later I made a speech at his wedding. Odd, the directions you go.

There’s a minibus at this service station which says ‘Helping adults with special needs achieve independence’ on the side. I’m surprised to see the SNP campaigning this far south tbh.

A company which makes an AI sales agent got in touch to pitch me. The salesperson was human.

If Cornwallis had air superiority at Yorktown the outcome would have been very different.

Starmer might be throwing Reeves under a bus to save himself, but this is what will do for him too. Nobody will work for him now. Basic management. No matter what behind the scenes, you have your teams' back in public.

This makes no sense at all. No matter how much we put taxes up the economy just won’t grow.

It’s bleakly entertaining watching people who’ve spent the last 15 years complaining about austerity now in government and having to face up to the fact that there actually wasn’t any.

We should implement price controls. Then everyone will be rich and nobody will suffer. *reads history book*. Oh. Oh no. Oh no no no no no.

If I worked for the bbc I’d end the footage of Glastonbury with the words ‘this has been a party political broadcast for Reform.’.

The bbc should have broadcast kneecap but just dubbed the birdy song over the entire set.
