The BBC are kants for this

Weird trope I've noticed in industry press-releases - use of the phrase 'penetrating the NHS' to announce they've got a contract in a hospital.

Linda and Eimear gently crooning away and then in smashes Niamh with a Patti Lupone belt, love it! #eurosong

There is some weird tempo changes and clipped beats in Emmi's Laika party and I'd love to know what the reasoning is. It's really interesting. #eurosong

Top for me on #eurosong is Bobbi Arlo Then Niyl and Samantha's My Way Then Adgy, Emmi and Fire. I just didn't find Laika party as much of a bop as I'd normally find that kind of song. Niyl's growth is the one that grew on me most. I think the sound mixing really did Bobbi dirty.

I slipped Power Play into a playlist last night without telling anyone what it was, and people were really bopping to it. Really hope Bobbi Arlo gets selected for #ireland at #eurovision

from a UK perspective I can confirm people throw around 𝙀𝙪𝙧𝙤𝙫𝙞𝙨𝙞𝙤𝙣 𝙧𝙚𝙣𝙖𝙞𝙨𝙨𝙖𝙣𝙘𝙚™️ too quickly, but Bobbi Arlo would absolutely keep Ireland in the final, the Irish Eurovision renÉiressance is alive and well.

I’m committed to putting London on a pathway to ending rough sleeping for good by 2030. That is why I’m delivering an additional £10m in funding—the biggest ever single investment—to help more Londoners build their lives away from the streets.

ME: *writing in my journal with the sole aim of pissing off future historians and archaeologists* I returned to my home - which is built in the usual style - by the normal way, and prepared and ate dinner in the way I often but not always do

I think if someone could link up the live A&E performance data available on some hospital websites with these figures, and produce some sort of running count, it could be really impactful.

Two logins, two text authentication codes and one app fingerprint authentication just to book a table in a restaurant. So many everyday transactions are a pain in the ass now. #2FA

Terry Pratchett's "Captain Samuel Vimes 'Boots' theory of socio-economic unfairness". The best quote I've ever read about why being poor can be so expensive.

My afternoon felt like an episode of Postman Pat. I went out to do an errand and on my way helped an old lady who couldn't lift an extremely large heavy package into her car, then a few steps later found a cat stuck in a fence needing freed. 🧓🐈
