So anyway, I’ll keep scrolling the infinite feed of random short-form content here on Bluesky

It’s time to admit that I have become a serial gambler on TooGoodToGo. The certainty that comes with a meal deal is vastly outmatched by the thrill of not knowing whether I’ll be eating two breakfast burritos or eight yogurt pots for lunch.

Yeah, it died out quick but it was a breath of fresh air and had some fun mechanics and a really good single player campaign. BF4 was saved by Dice LA + the CTE

BF4 was playable 2015 onwards, Hardline was fun too.

Incredible backstory to the WEF from Steve Hanke

Age verification experiences so far: Discord initially thought I was a teen on face verification and thanks to Bluesky I'll forever have a 5p "Kids Web Services" line on my credit card statement.

Looking to buy this and have it printed for a friend. Let me know if you're open to selling a digital copy!

The billionaire and the tax evading gift shops Asif Aziz's Criterion Capital manages a row of high-profile shops at Piccadilly Circus. So why does his team keeping renting them to students who vanish without paying millions of pounds in taxes?

He's one of Britain's richest men. So why does Asif Aziz's property company keep leasing London gift shops to overseas students based in abandoned offices or flytipped car parks — before vanishing without paying millions of pounds in taxes? www.londoncentric.media/p/asf-aziz-l...

I’ve had elevated overnight HRV for the past four or five nights - a clear sign that I need to slightly tone training down. Here are some pictures from sessions this past week.

Interesting piece. I was reached out to by a recruiter today advertising a finance PR role for £26k pa. "Hybrid working is very flex. Can be based in London/home working and travel up to Leeds once a month for client meets," they said. I laughed. nb @jim.londoncentric.media bsky.app/profile/jim....

Absolutely insane stuff

"Whatever colour ribbon you pin to your chest whilst canvassing, the optics of the UK government being directly responsible for the massacre of thousands of people, including the former chair of the Afghan Defence and Territorial Integrity Committee, are beyond horrifying."

Tough lesson today on "To:" vs "Bcc:".

Excellent piece

The Ballad of Christophe Bassons What One Honest Cyclist Tells Us About Integrity and Power

🚲NEW BLOGPOST🚲

It's not about politics. It's about bike racing - and the most impressive cyclist you've never heard of.

He didn't win much. But while the sport was becoming synonymous with doping, he refused and called it out.

I go through a kilo of fat free greek yogurt each week. Goat.

I didn't know I needed more central banking-bojack horseman crossovers in my life

In this week's Private Eye.

Yes yes yes!

The gatekeeping threshold is very easy to find, actually: people who add syrups or sugar to their matcha-based drinks

Employers are temporary, KOMs and local legends are forever. Strava is the World of Tanks forum for non-vehicle-based security personnel

I lived in Cairns, Australia back in 2013-2014, a city of some 200,000. It had a small Hungarian community of, I want to say, 40-50? There were stories going around about how one person reported the other to immigration services for having cheated on them among with similar backstabbing stories.

I tend to very selectively hang out with other Hungarians in London: I learnt long ago that it's easy to remove a person from Eastern Europe but it's very difficult to remove the Eastern Europe from the person. Disgusting behaviour going on here.

I'd like to add jamon iberico as a sixth pillar

Good pointer from @adamtooze.bsky.social in Chartbook today on the similarities between MMF and stablecoins. The Banque de France wrote about the worrying growth of tokenised MMFs which are practically stablecoins earning interest at the same rate as 30y USTs. www.centralbanking.com/central-bank...

Congratulations, James!

"One unnamed source says this is a worry" vs governor of the Croatian central bank says it is not. :)

Your second point is a non-sequitur. You were referenced, your dataset was too, and, again, taking a stab in the dark here - but not linking could be part of their house style? Still don’t see why this is a big deal?

Which train?
