Carl Sagan’s “COSMOS”, C.S.Lewis’s “The Chronicles of Narnia” and a lot of old sci-fi & children’s literature made me. My comfort reading is “The Pickwick Papers”. A health care worker living in London. Animal lover especially cats.

Samir Zitouni named as train hero who saved lives during attack The family of rail worker Samir Zitouni say they are

Wishing Mr Zitouni a full and fast recovery and hoping the story of his heroism would bring some sense and shame to the rampant racist narratives sweeping our country.

[Scene is a high school classroom. A teacher is writing on the whiteboard 'ACT 2 SCENE 3'.]

TEACHER:
OK class - open up Macbeth to Act 2 Scene 3...

TEACHER:
So - does anybody have any ideas on Shakespeares meaning behind the character of 'the Porter' in this scene?

[A voice comes from off-scene, behind the teacher's back[. 

VOICE:

ABSOLUTELY NOTHING.

TEACHER [turning round]:
Sorry….. who are you?

[We see a wider scene that shows it is the GHOST OF WILLIAM SHAKESPEARE, hovering over the heads of the startled students]

SHAKESPEARE:
I'm the Ghost of Shakespeare and I've come back to say: this scene means *absolutely nothing*.

The Porter is a funny drunk bloke I lobbed in to cover a costume change!

I mean like, not everything I did was genius OK? Stop giving me the ick.

TEACHER:
So um...what do you suggest we study?

SHAKESPEARE:
The most important text in British culture!

TEACHER:
Which is...?

SHAKESPEARE:
'Bollocks People Say on the Internet.'

TEACHER:
You think we should study... bollocks people say on the internet?

SHAKESPEARE:
Yes.

TEACHER:
But Mr Shakespeare... your Porter scene was a question in a past GCSE paper...
We need to analyse it so the kids don't end up failing their exams...


SHAKESPEARE:
Yes, and I'm just suggesting you should analyse Bollocks People Say on the Internet instead, so they don't end up painting flags on roundabouts.

[Silent pause]

TEACHER:
OK class - open up your phones to X...

[ends]

Very quick update on Covid in England Covid wave has possibly peaked and flu looks like it's starting early

Very quick update on Covid in England from latest UKHSA hospital data. Looks like current Covid wave *might* have peaked, and also that flu season is starting a little earlier than normal.

If you can get vaxxed for either, I'd do it!

England is now experiencing a significant Covid wave, after 10 months of relative quiet The latest Covid situation in England and a look at where NHS services are as we head into winter

After a long pause, I've just done another England Covid & NHS update as we head into the autumn/winter season.

TLDR: we're in a significant Covid wave now, the NHS is stretched, get boosted if you're eligible.

女性初だから高市が素晴らしいと言ってるわけではなく、女性初の首相が日本に誕生して、ゼロがイチになることが素晴らしいというのは、それはそれで別途受け入れれば良いではないですか。後は結果を性別関係なく然るべく評価していけば良いだけ。もっとはるかに大切なことを議論していきましょうよ。

[Scene is ANCIENT GREECE - where SOCRATES and PLATO and others are sitting round, thinking]

1
SOCRATES:
Plato..

PLATO:
Yes Socrates?

2
SOCRATES:
Can you tell me, are you human?

PLATO:
Why… yes, Socrates

3
SOCRATES:
And would you agree, Plato, that a human knows what a chariot is?

PLATO:
Um, yep

4
SOCRATES:
So you can tell me, then

5
[Socrates produces a papyrus, showing a drawing of the corner of a chariot wheel]

SOCRATES:
*Is that a chariot*?

6
PLATO:
Well
that’s more just a bit of wheel 

7
SOCRATES:
So not a *chariot*.

PLATO:
No.

8
SOCRATES:
[Producing another papyrus with the full drawing of the chariot, chopped into boxes]

So if a man were challenged to “tap the boxes containing chariots to prove you’re human” when he was just trying to check his ClubCard points... *where could he tap*?

9
PLATO:
Well you can’t tap any of them really

10
SOCRATES:
So are we not human?

PLATO:
‘Spose not.

11
[Bleak pause]

12
PLATO:
I’ll get the hemlock

SOCRATES:
Yeah

昨日聞いた話で思ったこと。
ネイティブだからといって一般的な日本語が使えて書けるわけではないのですよね。特に若いうちに海外に出ていると、出国当時の日本語の流行りがそのまま残っているのか、なんだか妙な癖みたいに出ていて違和感があったりするのです・・・それはSNSのポストにも出ていたりします。
でも同じ日本人がそれを指摘することは100%ないので・・・😨
