Walking paradox:
Would-be writer but chronic procrastinator,
Pet lover with a dander allergy,
Admirer of old things from 'new media'.
Newfie; ask me how!

I suspect I'll get crap for this, but I do think it's something we all need to be reminded of, especially fans and creators of things.

rich dudes got freakier after butlers fell out of fashion, like say what you will about having domestic servants but clearly it was some sort of moderating force on old rich dudes having a fancy man follow you around saying shit like "oh dear sir, that wouldn't be very becoming"

Every day we have to be reminded that the UK has the most abjectly feudal, let-them-eat-cake-ass media on the planet.
Huge respect to the papers for finding both an 88 year old worried about the tax bill on her 6 bedroom Kensington house and a 20 year old fretting about only being able to save £12k a year tax free.
Top work all around. These are not easy case studies to find.
