Please don’t tell me F1TV will be commentated by Crofty this year!

Joy of ADHD #36 A plan I made yesterday has now altered three times. So the decision part of my brain has now checked out and left me to it. 🧠

Guess who recently discovered @prestomusic.bsky.social! A 1953 recording of Tosca with Maria Callas and Mozart’s Requiem performed by @ensemblepygmalion.bsky.social 🥰😍❤️🎼

Anyone else feel that @sanity.io has lost its way a bit? I still love it, and the team behind it. But the quality feels like its dipped as they try to do so much. I spend more time debugging than I do building 😢

Here’s a thought: maybe don’t replace the nuclear weapons, because they are F**KING EVIL. Article from the Economist.

Palantir managing the NHS data is equivalent to Elon Musk managing all our schools data. Plus another sign of privatisation through the back door.

I have loved Lucy & Yak and their drive to be inclusive. However, I will not be buying from @lucyandyak.bsky.social again until they reverse their decision to remove size 32/4xl from their range. That is all.

Just watching the #WEF in Davos at the moment

Tell me again how respected the US is on the world stage Mr Trump 🤣

I am a huge fan of AI and integrating it into work. But I wish larger organisations could see outside the Microsoft bubble. www.manchester.ac.uk/about/news/w...

As part of a concerted “fuck you” to Trump, we have started using this at home. apps.apple.com/gb/app/buyeu...

I do feel like this is a perfect moment for the western world to ween itself off its USA dependence. I think we help provide the US with its global power by buying into the narrative. It’s not that we make it powerful — it can do that itself — but we are a key ingredient.

On the plus side. We did discover the amazing Polo Bar on Liverpool Street. 🤤

What is the definition of a one-trick pony? www.bbc.co.uk/news/live/c1...

Just coming home from the #UNGA at 80 event in London. It was an incredible line up and a beautiful venue but shoddily organised to say the least. Waited over two hours in a queue to get in only to watch latecomers stroll in front of us. Missed all the main speeches. Gutted. And £100 lighter to boot

Anyone know why drunk people on buses always listen to rubbish music? I’d have a lot more tolerance if it was Ministry, Led Zeppelin, or Bruch’s Violin Concerto. But it’s always tinny dub

Here we go again!

Today has mostly been…

I also discovered that the @soasuni.bsky.social website by Numiko may be one of the most beautiful academic websites out there. www.soas.ac.uk

I’ve just listened to part of The Epic of Gilgamesh in Akkadian whilst lying in bed. Proof that the internet can inspire as well as it conspires.

It would take around 1.1 million acres of solar panels to (clean) power the world. That's less than a quarter of the number of acres devoted globally to golf courses. You can see where this is going, right...?

Awesome! I got my ADHD diagnosis in #ADHDAwarenessMonth

The mystery of medical diagnosis!

I’ve just realised how badly I’ve been neglecting BlueSky and how poorly I’ve been using it. I’m going to try and rectify this. Starting now… ish

China doesn't like wind at all? I'll just leave this here for Trump: globalenergymonitor.org/report/china...

This Trump speech is actually hilarious. I guess he's moving into stand-up?

Farage is a vacuous bag of wind at the best if times. I love the BBC, but the fact they allow Reform so much oxygen is simply unfair. Sign the petition to get the BBC to provide a balance of political voices. Y’know, like it used to be. www.libdems.org.uk/bbc

Me to the weather right now

It’s World Ocean Day! And you know what, we wouldn’t be talking about the ocean if it wasn’t for plankton. Plankton was the beginning of life on Earth, and plankton is what keeps the oceans alive today. It’s very important!! 1/2 #plankton 🦑

Oooooh! Outrun You All by House of Protection is 🔥

There is good in the world!

Just listening to a great talk by Andrew Thomas on ideas. Thanks to @designboommagazine.bsky.social for a great event.

Worth the wait! Thanks @bsky.app 😍😎🥰

Conclave just moved from movie to documentary / premonition

Thank God we’ve bailed them out or this lovely stuff may have stopped.

I know most tech companies today put profit before EVERYTHING but this is reprehensible. Help make a tiny dent in this wall of hate. www.change.org/p/demand-spo...

We got a new light for our son’s room and now we’ve decided we all want one.

I have a review of Devil in the Family: the fall of Ruby Franke: Fuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuck!

To Zelenskyy: “Why don’t you wear a suit? You’re in the highest level of this country’s office, and you refuse to wear a suit? I just want to see, do you own a suit?” Ummm…

I applaud all of this work on training bar staff to help prevent spiking and giving women plastic covers for their drinks. But maybe we should be looking at training men NOT to spike drinks and, maybe, not rape women?

I wish Blinkist had a way to block ‘authors’ and can he be called a clinical psychologist anymore? I thought his licence had been revoked.

10-sec stop and go for Nando and a drive through for Lewis because we’re all about the safety. Wing mirror on the track that causes 2 punctures? Nah! That’s fine. #QatarGP

Morning. All fired up and ready to go? Me:

Denver gave people experiencing homelessness $1k/month. A year later, nearly half had housing. They also had fewer ER visits, nights spent in a hospital, and jail stays. The report estimates that this reduction in public service use SAVED the city $589k. www.businessinsider.com/denver-basic...

Oh well, time for a fun-filled, 3 hour drive in rush hour.

Welcome to cat pic #1

If you were a villain, who would you be?
