Thank you for such a wonderful write-up Hannah. I love reading your books - and I can't believe what a variety you produce!

This convo is giving me similar feels to the Gen Z reddit post asking whether "partying" ever really happened... elevenses isn't posh, just old fashioned. I know it's probably hard to tell the difference for non-Brits, most of our stuff is both.

Extra points if they don't quite understand the longer word they substitute in, so the sentence no longer makes sense?

Um. To be clear: the *physical* quality of the medium isn't an issue. YMMV on the quality of the content.

I think you're right: short and short-short stories seem to sell in bulk on Amazon. Loads of authors powering out enormous serieses of tiny books, sometimes multiple serieseses running at once. Because they're kindle books, the price is much lower than a paperback (or free), plus no quality issues!

and a sweater is a US word that British people use willy-nilly for all sorts

Li Webster @li-thium.bsky.social · 31/05/2026
Do other Brits agree: A jumper is woolen (or looks like it), a sweatshirt is made of cotton/cloth material and would originally have been worn for exercise, a hoodie is any top with a hood (it used to be a sweatshirt with a hood but now...), a pullover is a (normally) woolen *sleeveless* jumper...

But the reason everyone who hates Starmer hates Starmer is because we believe they already GOT that mandate. But it seems like they didn't want it. How is winning 400+ seats not the electorate saying "do something different please"?

The voters I mean. I agree with you that a lot of MPs understood but prioritised the stocks they were shorting/their personal advancement.

Li Webster @li-thium.bsky.social · 04/04/2026
oh no, don't be sorry, I was glad (in a weird way) to read it and be angrysad on your behalf. They will never understand what they did. They don't have the capacity to accept complexity.

I'm so sorry to read your thread and think about all your effort and contributions to the economy being wasted. I'm sorry for your employees. I'm sorry for the pointless waste and destruction. I wasn't expecting to feel tearful today.

I know little about AI but my understanding is the more documents/data you stuff into an LLM the more it has to work from and the better the responses are. It's not surprising this one spews drivel (both in terms of its "Victorian" tone and accuracy of answers)

As a freelancer I confirm that even agencies (no longer?) seem to understand how freelancing works

BBC show Jeremy Hardy feels it: jezza sits on a bench with a glowing red heart, looking like he's trying to look like he looks pious

yesssss... and if you're married to someone who can't accept that they were brought up "posh", you end up with real timing issues around dinner. I mean supper. Apparently.
