Many devices, other than the obvious phones, can also transmit trackable signals. These can include smart ear buds, headphones, smart glasses, key fobs, location tags, watches, and health wearables. No need to carry everything with you everywhere. Don’t leave breadcrumbs when you don’t need to.

Here's Terry Pratchett mastering the urban fantasy/hidden London genre in less than 500 words when he was just 17, in February 1966. "The idea of people rushing round deep under the earth is dark and mysterious, and the monks want to make sure people remember that".

A scanned black-and-white newspaper page featuring a short story titled “St Euston’s Day” by Uncle Jim, a pseudonym for Terry Pratchett. The story appears under a “Children’s Circle” header and recounts a whimsical tale about a fictional saint associated with the invention of the railway in 829 A.D. The text is printed in columns with a slightly faded, typewritten appearance. Below the story, there is a “Birthdays” section listing names and ages of young readers.

The story reads:

Children’s Circle
by UNCLE JIM

Dear Circle Members,

It’s not widely known that tomorrow is St Euston’s Day, when his followers commemorate the man who failed to invent the railway in A.D. 829. He failed somewhere.

Anyone who, on this day, wears their hat backwards and recites all the names of the stations on the Bakerloo Line is traditionally entitled to a silver sixpence and a return ticket to Maida Vale.

In memory of Saint Euston, the famous railway station — built where he supposedly had the idea — is really a railway cathedral. According to legend, if Euston Station is ever pulled down, no trains will ever again run in London. The underground monks who look after the railway will make sure of that.

No one has ever actually seen these monks, but if you have a good look round a place like Baker Street station, you’ll notice lots of small doors and passages that no one ever seems to use. Well, somebody must use them.

The electricity is cut off during part of the night, and no trains run. According to the story, people hear strange chanting and see lights moving far down the windy tunnels. The stations are changed, the light bulbs dim. Sometimes, at night, organ music comes out of the loudspeakers.

No one ever dares go and look. But if, on St Euston’s Day, you wear your hat back to front and can recite all the stations on the Bakerloo Line, there’s a chance you’ll receive a silver sixpence and a return ticket to Maida Vale.

So you never know.

Psst…those 1950s manufacturing jobs Trump loves so much? They were good jobs because they were UNION jobs. Oh...and taxes on corporations and the rich were much higher. Trump’s agenda won’t bring back the “Golden Age.” It’ll make the rich richer at everyone else's expense.

The Trump regime is working to deter dissent. Anyone who goes against Trump could end up on a target list. This is having a chilling effect on five major pillars of society — universities, science, the media, the law, and the arts. It's straight out of the fascist playbook.

Cartoon shows lots of lab-coated (no, I don’t know why mathematicians are wearing lab coats, shhh) throwing pieces of paper with π symbols on they at each other, as if throwing custard/cream pies.
