Wowzers, thanks @mbird12. Iām between books, having just finished @holland_tomās Dominion & was thinking to myself āgreat but I wonder what a Gibbonite-Dawkinsesque take on that would read like?ā Voila, along comes your assessment of @theAliceRoberts latest. Spooky!.
Call me cynical, but I've got a bad feeling that this book Domination is going to try to be a Gibbonite-Dawkinsesque version of @holland_tom's Dominion.

Grateful for two reasons to @renewablesmiffy - some nice facts and opinions in his tweet, and adding some balance to this increasingly lopsided platform.
So today, not for the first time, @reformparty_uk have been moaning about our electricity imports from Europe suggesting that it risks our energy security and is the fault of Renewables . So letās add some facts and a huge dose of reality to this populist nonsense š§µ.

High jinks in Polzeath. Please do think twice, as when these things are needed, they are needed quickly. šš».

I tweet about politics or a moral dilemma and no one responds. This man tweets about his flight and heās inundated. Go figure.
what is proper etiquette for telling the person next to you on 7 hour flight to move tf over to the open seat next to them (therefore freeing up the middle seat).

Disappointed by @TheRAC_UK . Broke down 185m from home (front suspension issue) at 2030 last evening, seen by a patrol at 2200 (who suggested cutting the spring off, making it solid & driving!) promised national recovery by 0240, only to be collected at 0410 to be taken just 40m.

I have tears in my eyes having heard the news that Sky Kids will no longer be commissioning Kids media content. Why canāt people understand the importance of providing quality UK made relevant content for kids, cos childhood lasts a lifetime š„².
