Want to time travel & tell my 10 year old-self playing football all summer that one day in Hong Kong I would meet my hero @alanshearer @BBCMOTD

The last thing you see before opening ChatGPT

Gosh I hate these AI summaries of Google reviews on restaurants etc. I saw this one saying it gets packed so nearly didn't go on a Friday evening and it was completely fine. I clicked on this and it is based on 1 review that says they recommend booking. Argh 😤 useless AI tech.

A delicious feast at Andy's Taverna 🇬🇷 Perfect food for a heat wave, and perfect service too ✨

the uk is a cold rainy climate and us hitting 34.8°C in spring should concern everyone but no keep laughing about how we can't handle heat

"I'm going to take advantage of the afternoon to organize my wardrobe" I folded two blouses:

Today has been the hottest day in May on record with Kew Gardens provisionally reaching 34.8°C - exceeding the previous highest May temperature in the UK by a full 2 degrees Celsius🌡️ This heat would be exceptional in the UK even in mid summer, let alone in May📈

Set backstage at Chichester Festival Theatre in 1983 when Omar Sharif, Hollywood star of Lawrence of Arabia (1962), and the romantic hero Doctor Zhivago (1965), actually starred in Terence Rattigan's The Sleeping Prince. Feel like it's time to rewatch Dr Zhivago again!

Last week I went to see Love Omar @TTechnis theatre and loved it. It was great! Definitely recommend. Great acting and a clever idea - a play about a play and based on a true story too. An insight into one of the Hollywood greats, Omar Sharif.

The Cotswolds Clocks, stock and a few beer barrels. Celebrating Stow 550: 550 years since the Royal Charter and celebrating the opening of the stocks monument. Meeting Cotswolds lions 🦁 🐏🐑 and Medieval music 🎵🎶

Britain’s higher education system, one of the finest in the world, is being slowly, relentlessly, destroyed

They should do more than review the sentencing. They conduct a thorough investigation into the judge who bizarrely praised the rapists behaviour in court.

🚨 NEW: The Government will review the sentencing of three teenage boys after they avoided jail for raping two girls, including one at knife point Two of the boys received youth rehabilitation orders while the judge praised their behaviour in court

How can threatening girls at knifepoint before raping them possibly reflect "a limited understanding of consent"? theguardian.com/uk-news/2026/m…

Real question is why are they shorter

The number of people outing themselves as bad scholars over this is making me realize that many of our supposed peers lied their way into their positions, which given the number of people who actually did the work & yet lost the game of academic job roulette is just infuriating.

@chrlux3 @BootsUK Yes! Same with the Sainsbury's app. Why do I need to activate vouchers/special prices every week

i feel like i shouldn’t need to active offers on my @BootsUK advantage card they should automatically be there and activated BECAUSE I HAVE THE BLOODY CARD 🤷🏾‍♀️

🚨 NEW: London Mayor Sadiq Khan has blocked the £50m Met Police deal with Palantir, citing a "clear and serious breach" of procurement rules

@JimDMiller @zdeborova @giffmana I’ve never cited an article I haven’t read and I would not any circumstances consider citing cite an article I’ve never seen. What you describe as normal research practice is bullshit and yes if you accept that as normal the new LLM enabled bullshit is just a small step away.

By leaving.

@SangitaMyska @TfL Definitely agree. Signs, voiceovers, ad campaigns. Also shoes on seats! Why do so many people put their feet up on @TfL 😔

This may be my most controversial tweet of the day: Why on earth doesn’t @TfL have signs visible on every bus and tube telling passengers to use headphones? It’s one of the simplest things to improve the transport environment for everyone. If one can afford a smart phone, one can afford headphones. In Japan this is standard practice. It works. (Decent blue tooth headphones cost around £20 - please see the excellent suggestions in the replies)
