I have a big ask. My 9yo son is autistic and he’s been raising a betta fish he named Kevin. Yesterday He asked if he could “share a photo of Kevin with the whole world“. I don’t know if this will work, but a dad’s gotta try. Like and share if that’s your thing. Kevin says hi! 🐟👋

You shouldn't be able to complain about a noise that is older than you/predates your presence in area. It should be that simple, your noise complaint should automatically fail if the noise is 'the laundrette that was here when I moved in'.

Gentle reminder to anyone who needs it: autism isn’t a reason (or even an excuse) for being a predator. If you’re a sex pest, that’s on you.

[Twitter thread from 2021…] This year we decided to make our own Christmas tree, so a couple of weeks ago we went for a walk and gathered what we thought might be suitable sticks. We trimmed them to length and arranged them into what seemed like a vaguely Christmas tree-like shape.

You know what would really disrupt the publishing industry? Fair contracts and decent pay for authors. No AI training without the creator’s consent. Artists and translators on the cover. No NDAs for ghostwriters.

I lost this ring in the toilets in Bounce in Farringdon tonight. It’s hardly worth anything, but it’s a ring my dad gave my mum and it’s priceless to me now that he’s not here. It’s gold, with a diagonal band of green stones on it. If you find it can you please get it back to me

In the past day I’ve heard two people who really should know better say they asked ChatGPT for factual info. ChatGPT is not a search engine. It is predictive text based on other people’s stolen writing; its whole job is to make stuff up. Please do not ask it for facts. Tell a friend.

Word of the day is ‘hibernacle’ (18th century): a hibernating animal’s winter retreat. I believe it works on a human level too.

Perfect soft poached eggs - put two eggs into boiling water, uncracked, for 15 secs. Take out and crack carefully into the water. Boil gently for one minute and turn off the heat. Put in your toast, and when done, serve with the eggs. It is very simple, and it works.

My girls, adopted from foster care, arrived with few possessions, apart from a box of books they'd each been given by @Booktrust. These books, read together, became our first shared memories. Spread the joy of reading by donating this Christmas: www.booktrust.org.uk/xmas

One of my inordinately strong views is that the lack of public toilets in this country is a disgrace. Not only, as the superbly named Cornelius McAfee explains, is it a public health failure, but it's a missed opportunity to repurpose beautiful, disused buildings & even create some new architecture!

Farmers deserve to heard, because they do hard, important and not hugely lucrative work far from the amenities many of us enjoy in cities. Yet being heard does not automatically mean being heeded, and rewarding interest groups for how performative and disruptive they can make their anger is unwise.

Had lunch at the Clink in Brixton prison today - superb food, lovely dining area, and great service, all done by the inmates, who get great training which helps them in the labour market upon release. Do spread the word, and give it a try yourself - details here: theclinkcharity.org/restaurants/...
