I had no money growing up. My dad was a labourer and my mum did everything to make ends meet. Men worked hard. Women worked miracles. But education was free. As was the local library. I knew books were my passport to a better life. #SupportLibraries

Don’t leave it to luck. Prostate cancer is more common than you think. Some men are at higher risk than others. #MenWeAreWithYou

After nine Star Wars movies, two Star Wars stories, and countless TV show episodes, 'The Mandalorian' has finally given us something utterly priceless: a protagonist who finally understands military tactics wired.trib.al/4gr5Fiw

The Mandalorian Is the Only Smart Soldier in the Star Wars Galaxy

It took decades, but the galaxy finally has a tactical and operational genius.

Shout out to some of the women who feature on the ceiling of our main gallery. (If you've visited us but didn't look up, you missed out!) Katherine Johnson is one of them, a NASA 'hidden figure' & human computer back in the day. We've got the NASA Lego set on display too #ALD20

The best Zoom alternative is fewer virtual meetings and more considered, long-form write-ups. It won’t replace them all, but if your remote day is nothing but a long series of Zoom meetings with small breaks in between, you’re probably doing it wrong.

Glad and deeply grateful that the likes & retweets supporting my warnings about the danger to the BBC far outweigh accusations of anti-Tory & anti-Labour 'bias'. But the threat is now very real. If we want public service broadcasting to survive, it's essential to say so. Loudly.

In the Disney+ version of Star Wars Greedo now shouts "MACLUNKEY" before getting shot. This is now my favorite version because why the hell not? MACLUNKEY! #starwars #maclunkey

I rarely owned books as a child, instead I went to my local library. It was there that I developed my love of reading, & later writing. It makes me sad that children might grow up never having a local library. All libraries need to be saved. When they go, they go forever.
