as a Catholic child I was always perplexed by the Bible’s long ramblings on gluttony but now as an adult living with my boyfriend’s dog, who exhibits extraordinary greed daily, Jesus is fully vindicated. no amount of cheese or treats stops him crying in my face if so I much as attempt a weetabix.

It would make more sense if this was “popular creators” rather than “most Influential”. Metric implies they’ve influenced to do something … I like Cyrus Veyssi but they haven’t influenced my thoughts or purchases?

at an Arsenal pub and someone I didn’t know called me a scouse tart. Through the roof complimented that finally I’m being recognised as an Everton fan

Green Party say rumoured gov plans to approve North Sea drilling post-heatwave “deceives” the public Mothin Ali: “A clear majority want strong climate action but rather than be open and upfront, the new PM is planning to appease the powerful fossil fuel industry”

really serious questions for Cambridge and publisher on fact checking Arday and perhaps a time for press introspection (ha!) on why the ire never turned on institutions that facilitated the charade. feel so incredibly sad for his children. reminds me so painfully of Caroline Flack.

I’m sure I remember looking directly at the eclipse when I was quite young because we were told repeatedly not to. I also think I look at the sun quite often. Am I making this up? I might be?

Probably uninteresting to everyone who doesn’t live in hackney but throughout this heatwave the cute little splash park for kids has been closed… lovely little area for kids to play and cool off. Does anyone know why? Budget cuts?

Jason Arday story enjoying extended longevity in news cycle perhaps because It’s dumbfounding/entertaining but also because people who went to Cambridge LOVE telling you they did

There’s a really easy solution to this which is if your employee tells you their symptoms are so bad they can’t work, let them go home. The tabloid interpretation is ppl w/periods want 4 days off every month. In practice, it’s easy to renegotiate hours around extreme pain if your boss trusts you.

Asked if King Charles is a “white Briton”, Rupert Lowe tells the Today programme “many people have different interpretations of that, we can split hairs…you try and whitewash all of the things that are happening.”

Every time I tweet about football I’m accused of being an Arsenal supporter when I categorically do not give Arsenal energy. I am an Everton fan and u lot can say thank you for Pickford

I’m steaming from a lovely long lunch in the sun with friends but I’ve still made my 6:30pm nail appointment and the salon is inexplicably playing the song from the Myanmar dance workout during the military coup on loop

Hugely unpopular policy. Khan could have reneged or bowed to pressure at any point over the last few years but he stuck to principles and pushed on. Politicians could learn a lot from the Mayor. Ignore the papers, and invest in long-term policies for public good.

Keir Starmer jibes that in the Gorton and Denton, the Conservatives achieved a miserable 1.9% of the vote. A by-election he...err...lost.
