Amateur human. Part time conscious. If you're not sure, assume it's sarcasm. I'm not putting more than that in my bio because I don't know you people. For all I know you could be weirdos, like me.

American journalists really need to learn to say "This is not a debate. This is an interview." Stop answering politicians questions. When you're answering, they're not. Also, don't be afraid to ask "Did you understand the question?"

Trump doesn't want to put sanctions on Russia because he thinks it will stop them from wanting to negotiate. Trump imposed sanctions on everyone because he thinks it would make them want to negotiate.

What really happens in the Conclave is a karaoke competition. Best performer gets to be Pope. They didn't show that in the movie because they couldn't secure the rights to all the music, so they put in that boring vote thing in instead. They save the good smoke machine for the victory performance.

Are Americans hoarding toilet paper yet?

"President Trump on Saturday said he thinks Russian President Vladimir Putin may be stringing him along" He's sooo close to figuring it out. thehill.com/policy/inter...

For anyone wondering why Hitler's books were kept but Maya Angelou's books weren't, I think you'll find the answer is pretty black and white.

I know we're all thinking of how Trumps tariffs will affect us personally, but spare a thought for the poor people at Diageo working hard to think of a plausible way to spin this crisis to increase the price of a pint. 🍺

Trump put a tarrif on everyone. Doesn't that effectively mean he put a tarrif on noone? The only thing that will change is prices in the US. For everyone else, it's business as usual. It's not like you can build an industry overnight. They'll still have to import everything, just pay more for it.

Trumps tarrifs are going to make it so much easier for the EU to push through a comprehensive tax on digital services.

It's been warm and sunny for a few days now. 🌞 Could this be that thing people were talking about last year? Sumner..? Sumler..? something like that.

My TV just crashed and rebooted. Only 10 years ago that sentence would have been nonsense. We live in the dumbest future.

My copy of Assassins Creed Shadows has finally finished installing. See you guys in a month. 😁

Lads. How are Ireland winning medals in skiing? ⛷️🇮🇪🥇 Don't get me wrong, I think it's absolutely brilliant, but what?

Instead of wasting time trying to figure out why the Burkes have gone to America, we should be trying to figure out how to change the locks before they decide to come back.

John Innes must have been a pretty big guy. Over a hundred years after his death, there's still enough of him left to add some to bags of compost.
