Our brave, beautiful, incredible girl passed away at 5.28pm today. She has taught us to love fully, without judgement or expectations, to see the good in people, to be brave when it felt impossible. In the 2+ of her illness she never complained, faced every challenge with dignity

Called to cancel my @nytimes subs, as the promotion period was ending. They offered me the whole digital package including @TheAthletic @nytcooking etc for £3 a month for the next year. Yes, sing me up. So I stayed. 🕺🏻🕺🏻🕺🏻.

Incredibly privileged to see the user needs models having a special chapter in the report, global survey on news user needs. From an experiment in 2016 to #dnr24, such an important aspect of journalism. Bravo, @risj_oxford @nicnewman @rasmus_kleis and the team!.

Caleb Azumah Nelson’s Small Worlds. This poignant novel explores the complexities of life as a young Black man in London, navigating music, family, and the ever-present undercurrent of race. The best novel I read this year. My 13th book of the year.

Something I've been looking forward to for some time! Finally, #Wimbledon has its newsletter! Congratulations to Zak Asgard. Wimbledon Guardian should have become much more used-centric in their digital coverage years ago, and now I'll be getting my #SW19 news elsewhere.
