There's two submarines playing table tennis when a horse walks past and goes "Can I play, fellas?" One submarine goes "Sure" and walks to the side, but quickly breaks down in giggles. The other submarine goes "What's up?" and the first one goes "Have you seen how that horse is holding his paddle?"

Long ago, Owens convinced me that the system is rigged and we all deserve better. This book made that case even clearer. I want to know how we get beyond modest personal protections and make our way to a better world for all. eof/

Just how the news on Radio 1 gets to cover, I dunno, Taylor Swift or EastEnders Radio 3 should have the dispensation to have news about a new tree that's been discovered or an argument about the certification of a traditional cheese.

Everyone stop, this is important

A black and white drawing of three dachshunds arranged vertically, each holding a different optical illusion object in its mouth, and the dogs themselves drawn as if a single line optical illusion. The top dog holds a Penrose triangle, the middle dog holds a Necker cube, and the bottom dog holds a Penrose trident. The dogs’ bodies are elongated in an exaggerated cartoon style. The artwork is signed “@IndieTheIntrovert” in the bottom right corner.

One of my favorite cases of someone being Wrong on the Internet was a very earnest, very confused vegan who was telling people how cruel honey is; and it eventually turned out they thought honey was made by putting bees in a centrifuge and spinning them around until they threw up.

Statistical extrapolation seems akin to form of chartist investing, which I first encountered as a strategy described by an opponent as "trying to drive along the Amalfi cost only looking in your rear-view mirror."

Before LLMs, nearly everyone overestimated the statistical irregularity of routine sentences. Our intuition insists that the world is *textured*, but it turns out that there's far more smoothness in the distribution of natural phenomena, including the actions that we take of our own free will.

These little Alan Ahlberg poems for kids might also be the most incisive dissection of suburban masculinity I've read.

I am the ghost of Uncle Bill
If I hadn’t died I’d be here still.
I miss the wife, I miss the cat
And I wish they’d buried me in my hat
For the wind blows through you
When you’re a ghost.
Yes, I reckon I miss my hat the most.

I am the ghost of Uncle Joe
We may have to die but we don’t have to go.
I miss my mates and my cup of tea
And watching football on TV
Liverpool – nil, West Brom – three.
I miss the Queen and the Union Jack
And I wish they’d buried me in my mac
For the damp goes through you
When you’re a ghost.
Yes, I fancy I miss my mac the most.

I am the ghost of Uncle Ben
I’d rather be back in my home again.
I’ve got things to do, like painting the fence
Who thought of dying, it makes no sense.
I miss my mower, I miss my drill
I never did fix that windowsill.
I miss my dog – he was only a pup –
And I do wish they’d buried me standing up
For I feel so idle just lying here
Month after month and year after year.
It’s the waste of it all I hate the most.
Yes, life’s a dead loss . . .
when you end up a ghost.

Some scams are easier to spot than others. That said, we get these semi-regularly and they are only getting more focused and custom-tailored, so be careful writers! And, no, we didn’t reply, but it was super-tempting.

Text from a scam email message which reads:

Hi Arthur C. Clarke,

I recently came across 2001: A Space Odyssey, the 25th Anniversary Edition, and wanted to reach out.

I’ve been connecting with authors whose books are available to readers but may not be reaching as many new audiences as they could.

I’m curious how has your experience been with book visibility and reaching new readers? And have you considered exploring new ways to promote your book or expand its reach to additional platforms?

I’d genuinely be interested in hearing your thoughts and experience.
