And yes, surely need more Xavi
Thanks Alasdair, this is therapeutic on some level. Let's hope you're right & the jinx is you 😑

Hmm, why was his band originally called the Quarrymen then?
The additional cost of ONE fossil fuel price spike on the scale of 2022 = the ENTIRE COST of Net Zero by 2050. We get precisely nothing in return for the first cost, and a whole new, more secure and cheaper energy system from the second one.

SHARE! In Starmer’s speech last night he apologised to Epstein victims for the denial of justice they suffered.
He said his govt would always seek truth against the powerful.
But HIS OWN GOVT blocked justice for 400+ Al Fayed victims & refused to investigate trafficking. Starmer is fully aware.
Remember when we all said Russia has to be defeated in Ukraine or Putin will keep going? Well, he's going. Reviving military bases near Finland while still fighting in Ukraine.
Side note: NATO poses a threat to Russian imperialism, not Russian security. Putin wants more.
The Government staying on X is pathetic: Ministers need to show some moral backbone inews.co.uk/opinion/the-...

1/ Michael Prescott of Hanover Communications, whose leaked memo alleging left-wing bias led to the BBC meltdown.
You could be forgiven for thinking that a corporate lobbyist & former Murdoch press hack may not have the best interests of public-service broadcasting at heart.

I did wonder at the time - why did Musk say what he said about Vernon Unsworth? It just seemed so odd.
A bridge with a load of flags hung on it, from many nations, but no England or Great Britain flag 😅
Spotted on a bridge in Pontllanfraith in
South Wales: 'Flags is it?'

Bafflingly there are still people out there in the world who think being passionate about nature is “kind of weird”. or “a niche interest”. These people have it all wrong. Nature isn’t some quirky sideline to the main business. It IS the main business.
It's true, tbf. If you sign up, you *will* never miss a new book by Marcus Tullius Cicero
When it says, "You are now chatting with Mark Sewards", that isn't true, is it? The bot is not you. Therefore this is a false statement. So you're openly stating to your constituents that you're happy to lie to them, and implying that's the behaviour they should expect from you. Good luck.
How on earth did you manage "garden centres" and "cream of tomato soup" with a straight face? Kudos!
Needed that, thank you. Slim pickings though tbh.
Stood next to John Peel in the gents.
(Not completely unexpected at the time - he was judging a talent contest I was taking part in)
The whole process seems to have regressed 20 years.
British football lads would be really good at this. Come on England.
Google search for “bees in my computer”, yielding the “AI Overview” of “Bees can be present in desktop computers built after the mid-2000s, but only at a microscopic level. These bees are a special breed of Apis Arithmeticam that perform basic computations in the CPU.” (This was a few months ago, I think they fixed it.)
I always think of this when someone says they do everything with AI now
Isn’t it in the nature of shared realities that they fracture? - Gregory Bateson and schismogenesis
Magic solutions like portals and one stop shops puts me in mind of some of @spavel.bsky.social’s things about dashboards
