Helen was diagnosed with stage 2 breast cancer at 42 in 2012; she died from it metastasising in 2017 aged 49 leaving me with 3 kids to raise alone. No surprise I think screening for breast cancer in their 30’s is an extremely good idea. #cancer www.theguardian.com/science/2025...

I won’t be in London tonight with my fellow safc fans, my legs ache too much and I’m training at 4am. Walking across a sea of crushed beer cans, not yet.. If we win tomorrow there is a distinct possibility I’ll be paying Trafalgar Square & Covent Garden a visit though 😂

I work out early at the gym. It’s nice and quiet the earlier it is. Far too busy after 6am. Normally it’s a 4am start but if I wake up early like 1-2am I just go and work out, then sleep deeply after I shower. Taking advantage of my irregular biphasic sleep patterns 😀

It’s pretty staggering that 25 years ago people thought the internet would bring us a utopia, and it brought back measles killing children instead

I thought the stupidest act of self immolation of an economy could never be topped with Tories choosing a idiotic hard Brexit which is still hammering the UK. The tiny fisted tangerine in months looks like he’s easily going to top that by plunging the entire world into the 💩 SMFH!!

And there it is. Putin’s lifelong dream. After years of relentless Russian propaganda, now fully embraced by the American president and the world’s richest oligarch, millions of Americans are convinced that this is a good plan because Europe is an enemy and Putin is our friend.

After losing four and a half stone, that’s 60lb or 27 kilos today has been a landmark day in clearing out my clothes. Shorts on the left too big, right now fit. 2 big bags of big clothes to go the charity shop tomorrow, and a bag of labels to sell on Vinted! 😀😀

Just migrated to my new MacBook Pro M4 Pro from the M3 Pro. Going from 12 core 6 performance 6 efficiency cores to 14 core 10 performance and 4 efficiency is a very noticeable increase in horsepower. As with my Samsung S95D QD OLED TV I really do love the matte nano texture display ♥️

Want to go visit the national parks this year? Sorry. The reservation system is shut down, EMT personnel are gone, so don't get hurt or lost. No one can clean the bathrooms or cabins, so they'll be closed. Rangers are fired. www.sfchronicle.com/bayarea/arti...

The irony of the richest man in the world almost single-handedly destroying an agency designed to help the world’s poor, so that the U.S. federal budget has more room for another giant tax cut for the richest man in the world and his pals, should not be lost on anyone. [Cartoon by Mike Luckovich]

The measles outbreak in Texas is reminding me of the public letter Roald Dahl wrote about losing his daughter to measles in 1962, just before the vaccine was publicly available.

My ex best friend, who taught me a valuable lesson in 2013 while giving me immense mental trauma to begin to purge all the narcissists out of life has died. I mourn the friend he used to be for 20 years before, his great kids and family. Karma eventually finds a way..

Tesla earned $2.3 billion in the United States in 2024. You'd think it paid a lot in taxes, right? Well it paid precisely $0 in federal income taxes last year. You want waste and fraud? Look at what some big corporations and the rich are getting away with.

I have previously been a fan of matte displays, my beloved MacBook Pro 17 late 2011 had one. And after seeing just how good the present day version is, my new MacBook Pro 14 M4 Pro that’s ordered and here within a week or two has got the nano texture display option.

The main reason I switched from an LG OLED to the Samsung S95D was the anti glare coating. I watch slightly side on to the right. That vertical halo to the right is a light strip on the left, as well as having a window on the left light reflections was a permanent thing. No longer.

That’s a sizeable drop year on year, but I think that Tesla sales in Europe are going to drop like a cliff this year, because the vast majority of buyers don’t want to invest in a brand that’s essentially Kübelwagen nowadays.
