This was harder than replacing a toilet cistern. Although the toilet cistern is a work of genius. Right up there with Rescorla & Wagner.

Marketing person 1: OK, the social media post has gone out, it's a great piece on impact and collaboration going on in the music department!!

Marketing person 2: Hmmm, are we sure that now is the right time to push this, I mean the university is shutting down all its UG music degrees?

Marketing person 1: Look, theres no such thing as bad press!

Marketing person 2: Well I'm not sure about that, but OK. So I assume you posted it somewhere where people are gullible then? Not somewhere where there are loads of professional people who are tuned into tone and marketing?

Marketing person 1: Yeah, it will be fine, no one knows about that!

Marketing person 2: Well, it was in all the local and national press.

Marketing person 1: OK, but no one is going say anything about that though, right?

Marketing person 2: You disabled the comments right, right?

Whole thread, but I love this calendar πŸ˜†
We all know we’ve entered the β€œthey’re banning Christmas” season now poppy rage is over on social media.

But I didn’t expect actual newspapers would take the confected outrage by anonymous far-Right Twitter accounts and turn them into β€œnews” stories!

But here we are in 2025πŸ€·πŸΌβ€β™€οΈ
