Hey folks. In total honesty my tour is NOT selling well. I’ve sold 30 tickets in a 400 seater in Birmingham, and not much more elsewhere. If you like musical comedy, if you like standup, then please come see my show! And spread the word! The Rachel Parris Songbook tour starts in Nov! Link in bio! 🎶

Life has changed dramatically in the last 30 years. We all use the internet far more, and are far less likely to read books, host friends, attend parties, play cards, attend classes, join clubs, go to picnics, and stay late to work. www.derekthompson.org/p/the-death-...

We went hiking in the snow yesterday, hoping (always) to find ravens. It was only back in the fog-filled parking lot that these two landed beside me. I know this couple, having recorded their special duet before. #ravens #birds 🪶

Christmas stocking up has apparently started early, but police say this was a tad extreme.
Cambridgeshire Constabulary’s Rural Crime Action Team were carrying out an operation along the A16 between Peterborough, Crowland and Spalding on Friday when officers spotted a vehicle that was looking “a little low”.

Most 'western' governments right now won't take on Big Tech because of worries about growth, and China can because it has fewer concerns on that front. But the largest companies are also arguably constraining the economy as a whole. A huge political economy question.

Worth noting that Canada and the EU keep signing agreements, admittedly mostly of limited value, while the UK has a tetchy relationship with both and prioritises staying as friendly as possible with the US... maybe one to think a bit further about?

That liberal instinct to promote the voices of the other side even when they are horrific or even just plain wrong is not one I share, not least when the suspicion is of an institution wanting to profit from pouring a little petrol on the flames, then deny any intent to do so.

The progression of yesterday’s partial solar eclipse from Dartmoor, Devon. Captured with a small refractor telescope & DSLR combo equipped with a certified solar filter. All frames manually aligned, composited and colourised in Photoshop. #astrophotography

A montage of 21 images of the yellowy orange solar disc aligned in 3 rows of 7 showing the Moon gradually obscuring more of the disc and then slipping away. Maximum eclipse, with a very thin crescent sun, sits at the centre of the grid.
