Sweary prof, iconoclast, and non-league football nut (Larkhall Athletic FC 💙). Lives in early modern London; citizen & Founder. Bossed by cats. I mean it about the swearing 🤬
So @gwr.com have sneakily changed the timings of, and almost doubled the cost of, advance singles. Good work, chaps, make my unremunerated REED work even more expensive. Excellent.

Public service email to everyone heading into the UK at the end of this month who isn't a UK or Irish citizen. The ETA requirement for UK entry is coming and isn't receiving enough advanced coverage. Don't get caught in the ensuing chaos:

Just binge-watched the whole of Small Prophets and all I can say is Mackenzie Crook is a genius. Watch it.

📖The Book of Sir Thomas More: Piece by Piece📖
🎟️Two months to go, but not many tickets left - especially after a little flurry of sales today.🎟️
A deep dive into the play, the manuscript, the sources.

Subtle differences in social status reflected in nomenclature in these mss: 'a porter'; 'Michaell and Pearcy two porters'; 'Thickens the carpenter' (yes, I know); 'Richard ffoster'; 'Mr Balthropp'

Safe to say Peter Bradshaw in the Guardian is not a fan of the new Wuthering Heights adaptation:

'Emerald Fennell cranks up the campery as she reinvents Emily Brontë’s tale of Cathy and Heathcliff on the windswept Yorkshire moor as a 20-page fashion shoot of relentless silliness'

It's only taken about 20 years for me to ask if additional light is possible. In the meantime my eyesight is fading fast 😵‍💫

In a touching tribute to his mentor, Morgan McSweeney has resigned in disgrace.

Have to say I thought this story sounded a bit fishy
Another day another press release for an AI grifter posing as news. Thanks to my friend (redacted here) for texting me this new one.
