FUCK YEAH. ELK.
The reintroduction of beavers to London has been a huge success.
The prospect of elk returning to Britain shows what’s possible when we give nature the space and support it needs.

Chelsea ‘have a plan’ and Arsenal (the planniest team in existence’ don’t, apparently, I think because Arsenal bore Gary a bit more
Sky comms, Chelsea got everything they wanted that half (they need a goal and didn't get one) and Arsenal need to do more (Arsenal are winning)

Aborted trip to Arsenal. Under the weather and the weather was shit. Too early a morning for an hour’s walk to the station in the rain at 11pm. Will watch under furs from couch with a tea.

Perhaps I’m being ignorant, but it seems to me that the objective behind the interest rises and the threshold freezes on student debt is to maintain inflow of £15.2bn into tax coffers at a time UK is aging and unproductive. A secret trap tax on the young. And if so, surely a generational scandal?

plz, the UK, a crumb of Pitt
The Pitt got greenlit for a season 3, out next February, and the announcement has very funny comment from HBO chairman Casey Bloys that’s like “yeah, turns out if you just make a TV show like how we used to make TV shows you can have a 15+ episode season every year 🤷♂️”

So far this season is also shot far better than s3, which was starting to look the way all Netflix shows do after s2 :S. All cheap and daytime.
