Banning children from social media?

I’m always surprised to find that my hatred of Trump can rise to new levels.

Maybe he’s on tour?

I think plenty of people are countering that, it’s just that Trump doesn’t care about any of those people and will continue to spout lies

This quote from Jonathan Reynolds just makes me think: but what if British industry is never as good or fast at making EVs as China is? Is climate change actually a problem or not? How do you balance jobs in manufacturing against heatwaves and flooding?

Last night I saw a man outside Clapham Junction station shouting obscenities at everyone who walked past. At one point he got up, went over to a cafe, opened the door and just screamed for a bit before walking off. It was like he was the personification of X.

Today appears to herald Trump’s version of the Molotov Ribbentrop pact: a grubby political alliance that should cause even his most ardent supporters to pause (but won’t) and which won’t solve any of the problems he has but will definitely lead to more human suffering.

Hahaha Accu-rate!

That must be quite hard to get right! With videos online the punchline often has to come right at the start otherwise people just scroll on. I can't really get my head around it!

Feels like it works for horror too - all you have to do is promise that something will be scary, and people don’t mind too much HOW it will be scary. They want to be surprised. But with other genres it’s perhaps more difficult to get people to take a chance?

I don’t know how you market something that is built around a twist or reveal that is critical to the story but that really needs to be secret for it to have full impact? It’s hard enough with a sketch online - the title has to tell the viewer everything up front or they just scroll past…

I’ve been aware for some time, hence the use of the word “further”

As cricketers, players like Ian Botham gave me many hours of uncomplicated joy. As ex-cricketers, less so. Tip: don't read his interview in The Times today unless you want that childhood joy to be diminished even further...

Superb 🤣

😂😂

I liked that it was very different to the 95 version - a lot more gritty & naturalistic - and that the characters were a bit more age appropriate. But obviously Emma Thompson and co were great.

It’s not exactly a leading role but I hope you enjoyed it!

Well now it's in four weeks! Already more than half the tickets are sold, really hope to see you there. November 4th @ Pleasance Islington
