This is a fab introduction to the Civil Wars. Pacy, intelligent and hugely entertaining
It’s my birthday! A really wonderful gift would be if you could listen, like and share my new podcast series, Uprising: The Civil Wars (and, if you have enjoyed it, give it 5 ⭐️)
In the words of Henrietta Maria, Merci.

Awww, sad times, Abbey Dow has retired. Off to be an engineer, rather than the best winger in the world.

Streisand effect almost inevitable.
I wish I didn’t have to share this. But the BBC has decided to censor my first Reith Lecture.
They deleted the line in which I describe Donald Trump as “the most openly corrupt president in American history.” /1

Additionally, hippos - despite being massive - have almost no fat on them. All of that impressive bulk is muscle.
2% body fat. Compare that to Elephants, which are around 8-10%, or rhinos, which are 10-20%.
The average human is around 20-40%, for reference.
They're *all* muscle.

Right. I need a person to help develop a logo for The Duelling Cages (me and my bro’s pod. It’s fun!).
Any recommendations for people #Nerdling adjacent who do art commissions?

Blatant breaches of employment law by Rockstar if this is right. They need to be given a kicking!
This wasn’t about leaking GTA VI.
It was:
Rockstar illegally firing union members to stop the studio from unionizing.
it directly contradicts Rockstar’s PR narrative and confirms almost everything that people suspected was going on.
