This is too good not to share.
I just turned 45. If you're in your 30's, read this:

Thought I'd check in here to see if it is any nicer. It's still an utter cesspit. Oh well.

The #FIFAWorldCup2026draw is probably one of the most badly produced TV shows I’ve ever seen and, deliciously, this will be hugely embarrassing to @realDonaldTrump. It’s as flat as a pancake and the sound is dreadful. Back of the net! ⚽️🥅 #WorldCup2026

Not here much & when I check-in my blood pressure goes up. The world is complex - so are our problems. Beware of people who tell you otherwise. Musk is human and flawed like all of us. Let's all disagree agreeably.

Regulate. Regulate. Regulate.
A few thoughts about X and riots 🧵 I live and work in the UK. I am of course upset and alarmed by the wave of riots taking place in towns and cities across the country. It’s scary, frankly. Professionally though, this is not really my beat - or at least, it wasn’t until Elon Musk waded in and declared that we are on the verge of civil war…

Clare Balding on the amazing Andy Murray: “You can be born with talent, you can learn technique but without heart you can’t win” - love that @clarebalding (sorry if I mangled your quote) #OlympicGames

This despatch from the BBC's Gary O'Donoghue who was on the scene at the infamous Trump rally will send shivers down your spine bbc.co.uk/news/articles/cnl0…

Nigel Farage received 12% of TV/press coverage in the election. @TheGreenParty (with 4 seats to Reform’s 5) didn’t even make top 20. Great research from @lboroCRCC shows Greens & smaller parties were especially marginalised by a press mesmerised by Farage’s anti-migrant noise
