I just saw a fly come inside, fly around and then go back out the same window it came in. I have witnessed an unprecedented moment for planet earth.

I’m not saying that male cyclists aren’t on the receiving end of dangerous driving and verbal abuse - they obviously are too, but I do think there is an extra layer of aggression and underlying misogyny that fuels aggression from male drivers to female cyclists.

Last week I had 3 massive spider encounters in one day. I almost rubbed my face with one, as it was crawling up my towel 😨September is not my month.

Drowning Doesn’t Look Like Drowning
Drowning is not the violent, splashing call for help that most people expect.

Swapping out running for swimming was the best decision I’ve made in a long time. Why I persevered with running for so long as someone with joint hypermobility is one thing, but the continuous heatwaves has also made running next to impossible. I don’t know how anyone is running in this heat.

Huge swathes of evidence of Farage’s skulduggery can be laid bare, but until we get a grip on active measures, disinformation & misinformation, his popularity is unlikely to diminish.

The only scandal that would cause Nigel Farage to lose voters would be the discovery that he's actually a compassionate human being who has been using his wealth to fund refugee charities.

It’s a revelatory report which nails how Russia’s hybrid warfare programme actually works & how Russia is explicitly & directly inciting racialised violence in UK - & has worked with Tommy Robinson to do so who even yesterday was shilling same Kremlin lines!

I know this is not the biggest concern going these days, but it stresses me out that basically every artist/writer/critic is now expected to create their own tiny empire instead of getting paid by any existing entity to perform a job they've worked to get good at!!!!

For years now, public discourse regarding online radicalisation and hate has focused on Twitter, anonymous accounts and young people. Meanwhile, your uncle is out there sharing memes about great replacement theory on Facebook using his legal name.

And my other #SNLUK thoughts are that amongst the naysaying was so much snobbery about US comedy. Yes different things work in different places, but there’s a lot the British comedy scene can learn from the US one, particularly in regards to sketch, character & improvisation.

One of the most refreshing things about watching #SNLUK on Saturday was seeing LIVE sketch comedy on our TV screens again. I think I had underestimated how thrilling and significant that is.

Hearing ‘and live from London, it’s Saturday night!’ almost brought a tear to my eye. I’ve had a sort of break from the industry because I was burnt out & freelancing was becoming increasingly more difficult financially, but man watching that alone has sparked a fire in me again! #SNLUK

I hope that SNL UK goes well tonight - there are many many very talented people working on it both in front of and behind the camera, and the scrutiny they're under at the moment is pretty ridiculous. My other hope is that they quickly find their own identity for the show. 1/3

No wonder they wanted Twitter to be discredited and destroyed. Can you imagine the torrent this would have caused? Dismantling the only platform that ever effectively organised movements of resistance was done because they foresaw days like this

Want to be clear that the predictable violence against the police wasn't the only problem with yesterday's march It's that 100,000 angry racists gathered in London for the biggest racist march in 50 years, and anyone not white had to steer clear The govt can't see that because they are inadequate.

I shouldn't be shocked, but I'm still always brought up short to realize how many people think "civility" means "white people speaking in relatively calm voices" no matter what vile shit they say.
