Could commentators please stop going on about players "entering the record books" at this #WorldCup... being the first person to score 2 goals in the second 20 minutes of a knock-out match, not ever, just since Julio Geordio did it at France '98, is not a record. At best it's an irrelevant stat.

Rainbows are brilliant. THANK YOU FOR YOUR ATTENTION TO THIS MATTER.

It's nearly "When's International Men's Day? Day. Or as it's sometimes known International Women's Day. If you're actually interested in equality for every gender (because equality means equality for all) then please support this terrific festival. (it's November 19th to preempt)

Brilliant to see the BBC picking up Ranald Lawrence and Dean Hawkes' fabulously interesting and important #environmentalhumanities work on #HardwickHall. They measured solar gain to understand Elizabethan comfort tech. The original articles are hugely worth reading too. www.bbc.co.uk/future/artic...

Twatting around with the planning system won't achieve anything. You need to fund and resource local authorities properly AND embark on a serious council housing building programme. THE PRIVATE SECTOR CANNOT, AND WILL NOT, DELIVER SUFFICIENT HOUSING! ARRRGGGHHH!

Farage’s plan to scrap indefinite leave could collapse the NHS… Which would be incredibly good news for someone wanting us to move to an ‘insurance based system’ FYI the average American pays £480 per month for private healthcare Please wake up folks.

Finally got round to breaking out the TimKey / EmilyJuniper playing cards I bought during lockdown. Not ideal if trying to maintain a poker face - e.g. King of Spades, and the black hearts don't help 4 cocktails in... Absolutely gorgeous though.

It is disturbing to see the quiet around the rise of fascism , the false nobility of pretending this silence is impartiality - also thinking of all those edgy comics whose fake rebelliousness has aided extremism and dehumanisation while they lap up the swill from the millionaires trough
