Always like the term ‘substance abusers’. Implies there’s a correct way to use a drug, but that some people are doing it really badly.

Universities offering overpriced, poor quality courses?

Jonathan’s big tell was when he said to Stephen “If I get banished tonight, look to [whoever it was]”, when he meant to say ‘murdered’.

He does the thing with the wig and explains the magical transformation from civilian to “Arbiter of the Law” that happens when a judge pops one on, and then has a big whine based on what they do *as civilians* (or do they only Tweet bewigged?). His panto preamble defeated his whole daft point.

Fun that RefUK is obsessively claiming the PM is obsessed with them, though.

Carl Chapple @carlchapple.bsky.social · 20d

If that’s how you feel, yes.

Still is.

This latest crop of classicists are quite direct, aren’t they? None of the nuance or lyricism of Graves, Highet, etc. (I blame Mary Beard).

Is it tell them about the things Nigel Farage says and does?

“Misreading”?

Hats off for the diplomatic euphemism. By the same token winter in Siberia is “a little chilly” and drinking battery acid “isn’t entirely healthy”.
