I do news stuff and talk a lot about musicals.
I will never get past the headteacher (you know the one) talking about punishing kids for “not making eye contact” - and knowing all too well who that rule is targeting.

So sorry to hear, Ben.

I hope you know how incredible your work is.

that sub is also full of new parents realising they can deliberately earn less to get under the childcare voucher threshold and come out on top, which feels… unintended as a policy outcome

I’ve noticed my speech issues tend to come back when I’m tired, angry or stressed. It’s usually a sign I need a break… but also it’s happening more often recently, after a long period of being less of an issue.

but yes, for all the big talk of access to cycling as a social good, they’ve done a great job of concentrating good public infrastructure in areas where it’s £2k+ pcm to rent, and letting unregulated dockless bikes mop up the rest.

(tbf the east London bit still remains v concentrated in the Olympic park 13 years on, it always rankled me how many outer east areas had cycle superhighways but no cycles to hire! - but now I live in a south London borough with neither)

KENREX is the unbelievable true story of a community taking back control.

This one is spectacular 👏

How high were pedicabs in the “most suggested topics” rankings, bc they’ve fascinated me for ages. I counted 15 of them waiting outside of a theatre the other night - an actual hazard as they were half-blocking some of the exits!

I think this issue is that from a game design perspective, nothing before the last 2/3 episodes actually matters to the endgame. before the crunch point where they stop replacing traitors, you can effectively think of it as ‘what if deal or no deal was also a popularity contest’
