Alongside the other billion and one reasons why my daughter is fabulous is telling me about this screensaver. That I’ve never noticed it before is mortifying. But as a 35-year Mac veteran, all the way back to System 6, this is Clarus-level joy for me. #hiChicago

This, from a piece by Tim Goodman about why professionals don’t vote Tory, is hilarious. Unrecognisable in its lack of connection with reality. A picture-perfect example of someone seeing their own biases and mistaking them for the outside world.

The problem with this - from the FCA's CEO, in www.ft.com/content/8774... - is that it runs directly contrary to the FCA's previous stated estimate: that two thirds of its recently-opened investigations would be subject to the naming provisions. I don't think both statements can be true.

I’d love to crack some smart gag about my cat helping me work.
But as anyone owned by cats knows, that’s bollocks.
Rather, it’s: “bored and lazy. Need comfort and company. You’ll do. At least till I decide otherwise.”
In the utter (and justified) confidence that spineless human will comply.
