Tried the gym tonight but really did not feel good at all. Just completely weak and exhausted, and in the end gave up. It's been a long week and I think i might just go to bed

It was, if the spirit of Iain Banks will forgive me, the day the pope exploded. Well, to be strictly accurate, today is the 68th anniversary of the day a botched embalming saw Pius XII’s rotting torso break open while he was lying in state. (Yes, sorry. This thread is absolutely disgusting)

Papal Swiss guards in costumes – and especially helmets – that could have come from the 1980 Flash Gordon film, flanking the dead body of Pope Pius XII in a big, posh room in a palace in Rome

It wont happen, but actually this is probably the right answer. Why should anyone pretend its fine and that it matters? Just let them have the 3 points, let them celebrate, but dont waste everyone's time pretending that its real

Seeing a team guilty of cheating batter a title rival really isnt a good look for the Premier league. The longer they leave it the worse this is going to be. At what point do fans ask themselves 'why should I pay to watch my team get beaten by a club thats cheated?'

Today is World Migratory Bird Day. Please say hello to the Pfeilstorch (‘arrow stork’). In 1822 this bird was shot in the German village of Klütz. It already had a 30-inch arrow in its neck. The arrow was made of African wood, and this bird played a pivotal role in our understanding of migration.

A stuffed stork – white with a black arse and red legs and bill. It has a long arrow through its neck.

For the first time in what must be 30 years of being a fan, I turned off the #F1 today before the end of the race and just went and did something else. I feel sad, but I think I've reached the point where I just don't care about it anymore

Today Prince William is lecturing us about Climate Change. Yesterday he flew in a Private Jet, then a Helicopter, then travelled in a multi vehicle Land Rover Convoy. Early this year he went on holiday in this $450m Megayacht that uses as much fuel as 2000 cars. He is full of shit

🧵 As front-page headlines go, this has to be one of the most misleading I've seen in a long time It's an out-and-out lie But notice the trick they use to get away with it...👀 *They're* not lying - they're just quoting someone else who is👍🏻 In this case, the leader of the opposition🙄 1/33

Today is #HobbitDay because Bilbo and Frodo Baggins were both born on September 22nd. Normally we'd shire a hobbit pun or two but it might just feel like a tolkien gesture and we don't want to embarrass our elves. Anyway it's a good day to come and boromir #Tolkien books. 📚

Why do so many care about inheritance tax when fewer than 5% of estates pay it? Because that statistic counts the dead. Our new model counts living pensioner households instead. 20% have enough assets to face the tax. Over 50% in parts of London. Thread:

The climate debate is overly fixated on high-tech geological carbon storage. This obsession neglects the massive, immediate leverage we have in the bioeconomy and resource-efficient construction. Bio-based materials are NOT inferior carbon sinks.
