Obviously a hugely reductive version, but broadly feels on-point. Also feels like Katy Brand and Katherine Ryan were instrumental in what seems an emboldening of push-back against him behind-the-scenes. This being prior to the 2023 investigation.

Sensing the onslaught of the uncomplicated with a "He was taken down for speaking against authorities!" type argument, I gave the Russell Brand chronology a dig. Interestingly, the seeds were sown in late 2017. But as Theodore Parker was paraphrased...

The Second Source is a super-group of female media figures aiming to oppose sexual harassment etc in UK media. Established in the days following 2017's #MeToo, by early 2019 @RosamundUrwin had picked up the Brand trail for The Sunday Times, and @char_wace for The Times.

Late 2019, Channel 4 are looped in. 2023, the resulting investigation drops. Immediate police investigation. 2025, legal charges are made against Brand. Brand pleas "Not Guilty". 2026, more charges & "Not Guilty"s, then the trial in Oct-Nov. Wow, what a journey!!!

Two hail-marys in one day... Emailed the NHS recruiter, see if a late application is possible 🤞🤞🤞 , and the historic debt said No Dice but I'm sticking on it and requesting they raise it as a complaint.

Ooof, just seen a doozy of a Test role. NHS as well, so I'd get to feel like I was doing some good...maybe I don't have to pin all my hopes on a minimum wage role after all!

k'sake... Closing date of 18th Nov, but the vacancy has closed! Guess they got flooded with applicants that first day & pulled the plug knowing a further 13 days of applications would mean they're unable to properly check all applicants. Going rogue, gonna email the interviewer

Johnny Flynn as the main villain in Mobland's new season is absolute genius! Cannot wait to see what his next big role is, Bond villain?!

Decided to question a historic debt I've got against me... Went through YEARS of old bills, absolutely wrecked my brain getting it all into spreadsheets. Compared against the past 4 years of bills to see if I was over-charged. Yup. Potentially as much as 70% over-charged.

That's a real Make or Break strategy though

Patrick Stewart never got heat for his relationships?! That last marriage might raise eyebrows - they met when she was a 29y old waitress and he was 68. But then you discover his previous marriage ended when he, at 62, met a 23yr old with aspirations for the stage.

I mean, play on, but still. Just another reminder that "outrage" is often more about the shrieker than the shriek. If Elon was a transgender Yas Queen w. purple hair we'd be drowning in praise about "their" insanely varied humanity-changing achievements.
