I’m entering The Teenager as potential winner of #Duvetknowitschristmas

He’s had to move from his bedroom to the unconverted attic

Cardboard floor & headboard is a nice touch which I’m sure he appreciates

He think it looks like he’s living in a meth den

Tomorrow evening it’ll be my annual duty to vaguely shepherd the activity on the #duvetknowitschristmas hashtag and urge people to give small sums to charity. 7.30pm? Something like that?

2. DOCTYPE magazine vole.wtf/doctype/
Finally did my first ever print project, just about managed to cajole enough contributors into taking part, & it turns out people will actually pay money for it (fingers crossed that keeps going into 2026)
DOCTYPE magazine 🚀⌨️
’80s BASIC type-in mags are back, but this time for HTML!

🧵 Not had a great year for various reasons, but managed to make a few fun things I’m happy with...
1. Styscraper vole.wtf/styscraper/
OK, so it hasn’t set the world on fire & been a smash hit, but it’s a nicely balanced game & @dochackenbush.bsky.social did amazing work

It is my humble opinion that Styscraper is up there as one of the best web-based games.

Release the REAL Epstein files. All of them. Unredacted except for victim's names and identifying details. And release them completely unredacted to senior Dems in Congress.

There’s still time to order this online or pop into a bookshop and pick one up for the feminist who has had quite enough of toxic men and their sh*t. #BookSky

Don’t go to bed until you’ve made another satisfying dent in your Christmas shopping by ordering a copy of the Map Men book for your Uncle Barry for the temporary low price of £8.33.

He's not ill.

Illness would suggest that it wasn't fully his fault that he rants like this.

He does it because he's vile.
He does it because everything has to be about him. He can't bring himself to let the dead hold a headline for 30 seconds.

No, sorry, he's not ill.
Sickening, I'll grant you.

HOT OFF THE PRESS: My latest piece on Germany’s energy transition & the heating law.

It already offers a solid path to phase out fossil heating.

What we need: stable funding, better local planning & skilled workers. Cutting complexity instead of endless political debate.

Very sad that I felt I had no choice but to resign from The Infinite Monkey Cage - a victory for the transphobes and other bigots - I did it because so much of the media has chosen to believe the kind and empathetic people are a fiction - they are real and so often unrepresented.

This is a really appalling editorial error on BBC Question Time

"Apparently one in three children don't speak English as a first language, why does this matter?"

Chair says "have English as a second language"

Caption changes the meaning entirely
"Don't speak fluent English"
