We make stuff for screens so you’ll leave the house. That’s where the best snacks are. And the weirdos. And also the joy. Go on. Bump into someone.

A man will be imprisoned in a coworking space thinking someone has stolen his Coke Zero as long as it does not occur to him to check the fridge door.

Spotify's CEO Daniel Ek is leading a €600-million investment into military drones powered by AI.

By providing free content to Spotify in the form of podcasts the company uses to make money, we are indirectly funding armed conflict... regardless of who's "side" you're on.

Oh damn. Absolute Radio just answered the question of "What song do we do next week at C90?"

How 'bout THEM transparent dangling carrots?

And OF COURSE my son’s new reception teacher goes to @soundslocalcic.bsky.social weekly community chorus at my coworking space 😆 small Stirchley!

Mark’s been at the piano this evening in prep for tomorrow. He can now mostly play I Want it That Way and She’s Electric.

Next job is to work on the harmony parts for that authentic boyband feel.

If you were on the Pershore Rd last night and you heard a bunch of people meowing opposite an Indian restaurant, it’s OK, you’re not going insane — it was just us doing the guitar bit from Alright by Supergrass.

Back again next Friday.

We've just sent out details for our meetup of our C90 Community Chorus, which is this Friday! 🤩

The songs we'll be learning are on our brand new C90 Songbook page 🎸

OK Thursday, we see you.

Mark has already smashed his phone on the tarmac, nearly fallen the length of a 35 bus, and is now the only one in his coworking space and yet still managed to pick the only table with the wobbly legs.

It probably all started when he decided today was a shorts day.

My guy, I know when you read “1 garlic clove” you think “measure with your heart”, but it’s not even 8am.

That’s too much garlic to put in your hummus.

You owe your coworking space an apology for later.

Today we will mostly be flicking through the same 7 browser tabs, opening and closing email, staring into the soul of our todo list and thinking deeply about the fleeting nature of lunch.

Since you asked, THIS is how you would map Birmingham's most notorious chippies on a Dungeons & Dragons alignment grid.

No need to follow up on this, I think we got it.

It's b beautiful bank holiday Monday. The sun is shining and the birds are singing.

But we're indoor kids, so today we have coffee, tunes, and we're taking to the open code!

(By which we mean we're building a website. Shut up, YOU try and make Python programming romantic!)

The weather’s nice. What picky bits are you planning for your tea?

In the words of a friend, "it comes to something when Amnesty International has to run a campaign in the country you live in".

Have you signed their petition to stop the UK Government cutting vital support for those that need it? www.amnesty.org.uk/actions/stop...
Stop the Cuts
I just signed @amnestyUK’s petition calling on the PM to stop cuts to social security. No one should be punished for needing support, this affects all of us. Add your voice too. #StoptTheCuts https://...

Next week, @hellosteadman.com will be off walking a mile a day for the British Heart Foundation. He literally will do anything to find a chip shop that sells scallops.

These are not the scallops we’re thinking of, but we’ll take any scallop content we can get. #scallops #notmyscallop

OK fine. THIS is what Sherlock Holmes would look like if he were a scallop. Stop asking.

Tomorrow is the prestigious Warley Woods Egg Roll, where we will see who can throw a boiled egg furthest down a hill without it breaking.

We've created this sweepstake kit with information on the competitors, for you to download, and organise your own completion amongst friends and family!

Guy on the weekly Rayo phone-in lottery thing was just asked what he'd do with the £525,000 he's won.

He said "There's a lot of need out there", and when pressed on what HE'd like, said there was nothing he particularly wanted.

To be confirmed, but might just be a top legend.
