How Australia killed populism open.substack.com/pub/iandunt/...

Unlikely one: I'm in London this Friday afternoon (20th March, 2pm-5pm, in the Kings Cross area) if anyone fancies a random catch up - just drop me a line 😊 Even if I don't actually know you yet/not met you before. These are how I have some of my best conversations!

This is an advert, but hopefully an informative one. Proud to be getting my first 5* Trust Pilot reviews and clients from IT, Operations and religious establishments, I'm available as a coach and have just two slots currently remaining. #AdvertTime /1 of 5

The subway is going to be fairly decent by the end of this year: - contactless - driverless - platform edge doors www.bbc.co.uk/news/article... /1

Sad to see the Ides of March becoming commercialised like this. I really feel like we're losing track of the true spirit of the holiday. It's not about how many knives you can stick in a tyrant all at once, it's about the whole community coming together to stab the tyrant as many times as possible.

After years of growing Bluesky into what it is today, I now have space to go deep on what comes next. I personally recruited Toni to take the reins so I could go back to building something new, and his first week here has only validated that choice.

Loving the CzechDreamin organisers. No last minute stress at this end - I already have the promo materials *and* slide deck! And there will be a fun - available to all - activity on the Saturday. More relaxed and you get to appreciate Czechia even more. Sign up: czechdreamin.com

What's not obvious, sometimes is obvious when point out, and - mainly - at other times, no idea whatsoever 😂 30 seconds fun challenge.

See the energy in this photo? It's possibly my all-time favourite(!) CzechDreamin 2019. Last week Martin Humpolec messaged me to say "Do you really have enough content for 50 minutes?", and all I could say is: "Yes!" /1

This is Hazel. She did some minor redecorating while you were out. Hopes you like it. 12/10 (TT: kelly_smith02_)

It's funny when the team improves something without an app release because it's like "Oh btw that happened" But this one is good!!

just learned about these (prototype?) airport buses from the 80s, i believe all from the Serbian (then Yugoslavian) company Ikarus

This is from 1975.

Wowsers! Literally someone made this photo up with AI. There's enough dramatic footage from last night going around that this was necessary (nor was necessary for any other reason to be honest). 🤬

Reddit is fascinating. 15 likes in "uktrains" for most post about the improved disabled persons railcard. 92 likes for a post of a train in new livery, just beforehand. 3000 views though, so that's not bad. www.reddit.com/r/uktrains/s...

(Un)fun fact. Taking things one step at a time is hard work! The bins broke me this evening. High effort. Low reward, but literally on my doorstep #bingate

Sometimes the bugs are so *annoying* they get in the way of achieving this, but it's great when it happens! (happy weekend folks!)

OH: "I turned off news alerts because alerts are only useful if they're actionable"

This delivery driver throws treats to all the dogs on his route to see if they can catch. Spoiler alert: some of them definitely cannot. Still 13/10 for all (TT: jezzyvi)

My new addiction. Betting on German train delays with fake money. Welcome bahn.bet

This is now live! Full blog post coming tomorrow. Definitely the biggest thing I have ever done on some, but not all, metrics! #SoHappy www.scottishadhdcoalition.org/2026/03/01/m...

Picard management tip: When you've gotten enough sleep, an impossible task becomes an interesting challenge.

Wowsers, but totally believable. Sometimes people really don't like to hear the truth! (it reminds me of a local bin collection discussion, where I keep on having to point out that we don't have infinite money to solve the problem) www.theregister.com/2026/02/27/o...

Happy Friday folks!

ME CHECKING THE NEWS: What a great morning! ME AFTER LOGGING ON AND CHECKING MY WORK OUTLOOK CALENDAR: Well fuck this shit of a day.

Happy news (no one I know, but still good), from the Jewish Telegraph.

How Reuters captured the photo of former Prince Andrew leaving custody www.reuters.com/world/uk/how...

I have my copy! My newsagent ordered it in, but the big supermarkets are stocking it too. Brand new, by authors I trust. £9.99, but it's definitely meaty. Less than the cost of a coaching session 😉

(comic) With great responsibility comes great... never mind

As just spotted on a different platform. Happy Friday! (ok, I know it's Wednesday, but the day is going well!)

I thought I my days of writing about technology were numbered, but there's always a human element :/ (not, in this case, a good one). There are some positive suggestions however. naturallypaul.com/blog/salesfo...

Not very humble brag! I think *I* did this!! www.disabledpersons-railcard.co.uk/eligibility-... Blog post to come! (particularly the 4th point) #NationalRail

I fixed a light switch! I fixed a light switch! Butch points unlocked. 🥳🥳🥳 And we'll gloss over the fact that it didn't work for the first 4 times because I was trying to connect the wrong wires 🤯🙈

I've just put in my order. From someone who's rigour I trust. You'll soon spot why this is more likely to be useful, or at least interesting, than most materials out there - it's from James Brown amongst others You can grab it at supermarkets, TG Jones, WHSmith Travel or online: anthem.co.uk/adhd

Today we're celebrating something not getting worse. It's one of those sorts of weeks for the wider world. Taking the wins I guess! www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

I try and stay with the positive stuff here and hugely filter my feed (mute exists for a reason and it's wonderful), but equally need to honour my Salesforce roots. So when Todd calls something out as loudly as this, it's a sign (Todd is someone I respect to be clear). /1

I'm not saying my builder knows me, but he left a full bath for me to see when I came back from holiday. His way of reminding me not to use the new shower (old one life expired) until the grouting has dried 😍 It worked!

Something I didn't ask for!! Delighted to have been announced as a finalist for the Neurodiverse Business Awards 2026. Not entirely sure if I deserve this, but anything that helps promote the awareness of the benefits of being a neuro-inclusive employer is a win! hashtag#neurodiverseawards.

People are always scared of the unknown or unfamiliar. Bad faith actors like to abuse that fear. "But what's going on in a trans person's brain/home?!" stops being a usable threat by TERFs etc, once people know the answer is nearly always just "Warhammer."

4 days into my 5 day holiday and *now* my brain on firing with ideas I don't have time to implement. Is this a curse? 😅🙄🤣 But loving it. (regards to all from Alicante!)

RSD seems to be my word of the week, so this incident occurred, was amusing in a dark humour fashion, and I'm sharing with you! naturallypaul.com/blog/sending...

Who would have thought that there had to be a person to "invent" RSD?! (rejection sensitivity dysphoria). I thought it had always been around (silly me 😉) Available on YouTube, Spotify, etc. www.youtube.com/watch?si=4Jr...
