There's something profoundly wrong in this country if just one rich person can do this to the rest of us. Completely broken. Feudal. theguardian.com/environment/…

Having my first ever allergic reaction. What a ride! Mystery circumstances though... Really fetching shade of red.

What epic TV that was. Reminds me why I quite enjoy it!

NEW: Britain’s grim winter of strikes, falling incomes and a worsening NHS crisis is not some unfortunate series of events It’s the inevitable result of a decade of Tory austerity that steadily weakened the state’s capacity to respond to shocks enterprise-sharing.ft.com/re… Thread:

The Annunciation from the perspective of the Magnificat: Mary found liberation, vision, joy, courage, female solidarity. A bewildered girl became a woman full of conviction, passion, and strength, ready to change the world. That's what faith should be for all women.

We just watched Love Actually. Say what you like about it with the benefit if 20 years, but it's a classic. Here's a track to erase all those years. open.spotify.com/track/0fZSr…

Is anyone watching Junior Eurovision? It's the MOST PURE THING I have ever seen! And thanks for the 12 points, Ukraine!

Well, that's the final nail in the coffin of COP26 and the UK’s climate leadership. An ill-judged, immoral and utterly debased decision by this shower of a government. theguardian.com/environment/…

And it shows the fundamental weakness of the UK climate sector. We need to take a very hard look at ourselves. Whatever strategy we had clearly wasn't up to much, I'm afraid.
Happy Christmas Admin Day, everyone! Today Chris and I have the day off for present buying, card writing, Christmas Tree decorating, and a long, boozy lunch. A true tradition! Love to all who celebrate this special day (you should!)

Important piece. Some firms are hypocritically cashing in on the climate dollar. We need to make sure we don't let them get away with it. I have a list of excellent fossil-free agencies if you fancy... opendemocracy.net/en/un-clim…

Brunswick, an adviser to UN ‘climate champions’, has been accused of ‘enabling the fossil fuel industry’s deception’

Going to the #PeakDistrict this weekend and apparently there'll be a sheep that eats digestives too, so that'll be fun. Cannot wait for some hilly, sheepy vibes.

I asked an AI to write a Bible song about ducks and I'm laughing so hard now I can't breathe
Write a song about ducks in the style of the Bible Verse 1: In the beginning God created the ducks, He gave them wings so they could fly, Filling the skies with their quacking call, Their beauty is a wonder to behold. Chorus: Oh, the ducks of the Lord, They fly on high, Splashing in the water, As they pass us by. Verse 2: God gave them webbed feet to swim in the lake, A feathered coat to keep them warm, Their wings are strong and carry them far, From the water's edge to the stars. Chorus: Oh, the ducks of the Lord, They fly on high, Splashing in the water, As they pass us by. Verse 3: The Lord watches over His feathered flock, Providing food and shelter for them, He calls them to Him when He needs them, And gives them a home in the heavens. Chorus: Oh, the ducks of the Lord, They fly on high, Splashing in the water, As they pass us by.

A million times this. Such a godawful 'service'. Actively levelling down. The government needs to get a grip like they did on the East Coast line.

The train is full. The next train is cancelled. The train after costs £184.70 for a single. There is no WiFi, and the shop only takes cash. Travelling Avanti - only marginally preferable to crawling from London to Manchester. TLDR: Strikes aren’t the problem on our railways.

The football just shows why group matches are a waste of everyone's time. Wake me up for the quarters.
