I much prefer the historically accurate version where the British conquered the world for spices and still couldnt use any of them until the people they stole the spices from went there to show them how to use pepper

The presenters of every podcast I listen to, have been listening to for years, is complaining about the podcast now having to be video as well. Who or what is driving this “pivot to video”? It’s certainly not the podcasters

I started reading Proust after not reading him for many decades. Just reading the first page of A La Recherche du Temps Perdu took me back to my childhood, sitting at my grandmother’s dining table reading Proust!

Stop saying “tolerant.” Not going to repeat myself because I’ve explained it a lot over the years. Imv part of the reason we are in this ruddy mess is that we have been too tolerant. Prejudice doesn’t have two sides. Cruelty doesn’t have two sides. Rudeness and hatred don’t need both sidesing.

Trump has now refunded $128 billion dollars from his tariffs to corporations. Tariffs he created, made Americans pay for, and then returned right back to his donors. We paid, and his friends cashed in.

In May of 1940 there was a mass panic in Britain - stirred up by the tabloid press - about 'fighting aged men' who had come to Britain as 'refugees' posing a threat to the women and children of this country - and essentially forming a 'fifth column' that could, at any moment rise up against everyone

Screenshot of a post on X by Rob Roberts (@itsrobroberts): "Someone has left this note - and this lighter! - at the Halifax grave of Maj.-Gen. Robert Ross, the British military man who burned down the White House." Below the text is a photograph of a stone gravestone base where a blue plastic lighter and a handwritten note inside a clear sheet protector, held down by a small piece of brick, have been left. The note reads: "GENERAL ROSS, THANK YOU FOR YOUR SERVICE. YOU ARE NEEDED AGAIN R.I.P."

I wrote about how politicians need (PLEASE) to stop using the phrase ‘legitimate concerns about immigration’, particularly when responsible to far-right riots. www.lbc.co.uk/article/legi...

Britain does not have an immigration problem, it has a nuance problem writes Natasha Devon | LBC
By endlessly repeating that people’s anxieties are ‘legitimate’, politicians are giving credence to the far-right’s propaganda and inadvertently stoking the tensions they were designed to rile up.

I want the Prime Minister to look into a TV camera and say the RNLI are heroes, that we do not change policy by street violence in this country, and that he expects any criminal action to face the full force of the law. That's it. That's all he has to do.

The Arthur C. Clarke Award @clarkeaward.bsky.social · 07/09/2026
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.
