Yes we all need to change our lifestyles and reduce our personal footprints But I massively resent being told the responsibility lies with me on the day a giant oil company issues a massive fuck you to all of us

"Cardiff University is not in immediate financial difficulties. The university has around £188 million in accessible cash funds..." University leaders just don't want to pay academics. They don't care about research or teaching. That's it.

When Gary Neville says "you wouldn't see this in under 9s or under 10s football" - you would though, wouldn't you. In an U9s game I once saw a goalkeeper shout to his teammate, as the game was going on, "JAMES, HAVE YOU FINISHED CHARLOTTE'S WEB YET?"

I wrote an insulting poem about the school bully in year 9. Someone leaked it and he smashed my head against the stationery cupboard and we BOTH got told off. He later went to jail (not for that).

If this were Just Stop Oil, there'd have been dozens of arrests, furious denunciations in the billionaire press and, perhaps, long jail sentences. Farmers have a right to protest, and the police respect it. Other people, it seems, not so much. The real #TwoTierPolicing www.bbc.co.uk/news/videos/...

Massive long shot. Citizens of Lancaster - is there anywhere in or close to town that could, at a push, look anything like a time machine built in 1911? Or could, with a bit of tweaking. Thinking ahead about locations for a short film I'm workshopping with some 10 year-olds.

Werner Herzog should do a film based on the bitcoin skip man. Just two hours of him ploughing through rubbish; bare hands; screaming and gibbering. No speech. Like ‘Elephant’ by Alan Clarke. ‘A gruelling experience’ etc.
