If it’s 75° outside, it only takes 10 minutes to reach 75° in the car. But if it’s 75° outside, it takes fully 30 minutes to get to 75° in the car. Good to know.
Both Cameron and Schapps have unexpectedly called short their overseas trips and returned to the UK. Now Hunt has pulled out of a television appearance tonight.
Don't tell me Sir Beige Starmer is just as bad as Richie Rich Sunak. He isn't. I'm not saying he's going to be good. He isn't good. But he will categorically not be as bad for as many people as the Tories.

At a pro-Palestinian protest in Amsterdam last week, riot police violently broke up an encampment of students seeking boycotts and divestment from any company that profits off of Israeli genocide or apartheid.

After some issues, I installed an #ebook reader on the Palm m105 I bought recently. This evening, I used it to read Past Imperfect by @clacksee while waiting for eldest to finish at Scouts.
This book is being published by one of the top 5 publishing houses. I’m just some indie author no one cares about. I bet it makes him feel really good getting all up on his soap box at me.
Sorry to get your hopes up. There’s not really any story here. This feels anticlimactic. Like, there should be more of a punchline. But there isn’t. Just some random guy being a bit twatty.
It's tomorrow now and I'm still thinking about this. This guy went through my entire website and critiqued it. He sought me out. He went off at me for having the audacity to give an honest review of his book.
Because I gave him 3 stars. I mean, how very dare I?
