France is mandating solar panels on every large commercial car park in the country — turning millions of square metres of idle asphalt into one of Europe's most productive clean energy assets. I have been mentioning this for months - they are shooting up on all the supermarket car parks.

One thing you will never think after reading a great book or listening to a great album or seeing a great piece of art is, “I’m really glad this person remained cautious while they were making this and guarded against being perceived as weird.”

It's happening! 📢 On Tuesday, MPs will consider an amendment to enable local leaders to ban pavement parking in their area. We need you to help us get this amendment on to the Bill. Ask your MP to agree to Amendment 265 when it's considered on Tuesday:

Fist bump to anyone else caught between the need to bow down & accept the dire, broken reality of the attention economy to continue surviving via their creativity & a desire to disconnect which becomes more vast, and more potentially vital to their sense of inner peace, with every year that passes.

Listening to Radio 4 Today programme is a rollercoaster. Jeremy Bowen delivers a moving, insightful and brilliant report on the Middle East that makes you proud of the BBC. Immediately followed by a reliably incoherent and amateurish interview from Emma Barnett.

Last night, I got properly "doored" for the first time. A car in the road to my right paused, and the rear left passenger threw open his door without looking, right into my path. I ended up on the floor, badly winded but ok. If you don't know what the "Dutch reach" is, NOW is the time to learn.

Had insomnia Tuesday night and only managed a few hours sleep. Pushed through yesterday, fell asleep quickly, and was then woken at 3am by neighbour's car alarm which went off for an hour. After that, couldn't drop back off. Today I'm at work but barely functioning.

An exhausting thing about this alt right stuff is how insincere it all is. These people aren’t ideologues. They’re morons. They’re internet trolls. They call for things they know will stir outrage - for fun. We give them too much credit. And it has warped our sense of humanity.
