On a more upbeat end-of-year note, I moved my retirement savings over to 100% carbon-free investments in 2021 and it made *way* more than the conventional funds it had been in the past 20 years. If you have savings, think about greening up in 2022.

Ordered a @biolitestove from @SportChek, got 32 rolls of kinesiology tape. To get my firepit, I have to go to the post office, return this, wait a week til they get it, pay for a second BioLite, wait to get it, then wait 30 days for a refund for the one I never got. Classy.

@MurphyBecs @ravenbooks To take advantage of the day, you'll have to read every book in your To Read pile in advance. If you start now, you need to read one book every three and a half minutes, if you don't eat or sleep.

Yes, pints are great, but have you ever walked into a bookshop after five months of lockdown?

@bookfella Lucky Jim by Kingsley Amis. But what you find funny is like what you find scary. Never universal.

Show me yours and I'll show you mine: what's the funniest book you've ever read?

@barrettrob @qikipedia It should. I learned that word from Stephen King's twitter feed.

@AliVelshi A guy called Bernie Madoff burned people and made off with their money. He might as well have been called Grifty Stealyourcash.
