Seeing Mark Allen at #thesnooker having a sip from his mug of tea between shots. It's a long way from the fags and beer of the 1980s.

Green candidate in Lambeth apologises for sharing some (pretty nasty and bonkers) antisemitic posts. She is contesting a ward where Greens already hold two of the three seats: uk.news.yahoo.com/lambeth-gree.... #london

Keepers had raised concerns that Arlo seemed particularly lethargic, even by sloth standards. "Looking at a sloth and trying to determine if they are lethargic or not cannot be the easiest," said Simpson-Brown.

Very happy that the #snooker has begun. I can kiss goodbye to my productivity for the next couple of weeks though.

Depressing to see my local authority of Tower Hamlets is the worst place in England for recycling. @towerhamletsnow.bsky.social needs to do better.

London Philharmonic violinist Joe Maher was on 9.01 from Hayward's Heath to Blackfriars today. His grey fibreglass case with LPO luggage label was left on the train & is now missing, with Paul Jocelyn violin (UK 20th C) Hill bow - gold-mounted fleur de lys Martin bow - silver-mounted.

How is it 25° in London in March. I mean it's nice, but not what it usually is.

As Nathan Newby receives the George medal today for extraordinary bravery, read the amazing story, published in the FT Magazine in December, of how he talked a would-be hospital bomber down. It’s an astonishing piece of writing from Ravi Somaiya and it’s Free to Read www.ft.com/content/cd59...

I'd totally recommend this - he is a master at what he does and very inspiring.

Keeley really in a class of her own, to post this time having set the Championship Record for the 800m just a short time before. Phenomenal.

This 400m format for the finals is deeply unimpressive. All the drama is gone #worldindoors #worldindoorschamps

Took a wander for the spring equinox in search of blossom. It's not fully blooming everywhere but plenty of sakura vibes in the parks of London.

mill's dedication: this is a jointly authored work a century & a half of male editors: mill exaggerated out of a sentimental fondness for his wife mill's letters: no, really, most of "my" work was partly by her, i really could not be clearer on this

This is Stinky and Binky. Their human jokingly started offering ad space on their backs, but then people actually started buying spots. Good thing Binky is running a special. 14/10 for both (TT: toocutelabs)

This sounds promising.

Very excited about the prospect of seeing such a great Opera within walking distance of my house. And in such a historic venue.

It's International Long Covid awareness day! For many people Covid is now seen as 'just a cold' but for millions of us it's a chronic, life-limiting condition, and frankly, a pain in the arse (head, legs, lungs etc). One thing you can do to make a difference: wear a mask in public when you are sick.

The House of Lords Digital & Communications Committee just published their report on AI, copyright & the creative industries, and their conclusions could not be clearer. 🧵 1/5

Reform UK and the Greens are hoovering up financially insecure voters. My piece this week looks at the return of Britain's class politics (with a twist) www.economist.com/britain/2026...

I've been unemployed for a few months. I now set myself pretend jobs to prevent the rot setting in. My son thinks this guy is funny, which is a good enough excuse to make something. Any requests?

🚨 It looks like the UK government is gearing up to upend copyright law in favour of AI companies, legalising the theft of their work. This is despite creatives' huge protests, and despite previous proposals being roundly rejected by the public. Please spread the word. 🧵 1/4

The speed skating relay is utterly mental.

www.ft.com/content/ad56... Went to see this today. It was stunning. Full of witchy, powerful women.

Arrived early for the figure skating tonight and got the lucky bonus of seeing some of the men in their practice session. Including a personal favourite - Deniss Vasiljevs. #winterolympics

I think of this scene all the time these days
