Twice already today I've been asked by someone (via Teams message) to perform a task so simple that it would have been pretty much equivalent to the effort they put into sending the message 🙃😭 Mondays... 😒

I've been gymming a lot lately, and trying to keep consistent with consuming a daily protein shake with creatine, plus reasonably healthy meals etc. Shame I also really love biscuits 😭

As the one true authority on this matter, if you say it like the e in set you're straight up wrong. Do you pronounce the name Bailey as "Belly"? Lorraine as "Lorren"? NO. I rest my case.

Today is a day when arts degrees are worthless, but the product of those degrees is so valuable it would kill an entire industry if they were made to pay for it.

Renewables overtake coal as world's biggest source of electricity

Developing countries lead the historic clean energy charge but the US and EU rely more on fossil fuels than before, a think tank study shows.

You ever go out to a pub/club and get the impression the DJ is actively trying to make the patrons leave? That's happened to me & my friends the last 2 Fridays in a row in the same place. Probably never going back 🙃

I hear this all the time when people try to "sell" cricket. If your selling point of the sport is the drinking and a load of other stuff that *isn't* watching, then that is quite literally the opposite of a spectator sport. I'll stick to *watching* football and rugby, thanks very much.

I go to pub quizzes with friends regularly, and every single time a 'science and nature' round comes up, without fail, they turn and look at me. I'm tired of explaining that I don't have a PhD in THE ENTIRETY OF SCIENCE. It's not even all of chemistry 😭

The lack of proofreading or editing for online articles nowadays is shocking. They're full of easily spotted mistakes or omissions. Just shows how little people care about doing a job properly. Write it quick and hit publish seems to be the mantra.
