I can't stop thinking how in fifty years or so, kids will be reading our news in a history lesson and wondering how our current world leaders allowed it to happen.

Anything can "surge in adoption" if it's forced into every facet of technology use.

Christmas fact: People who carefully open their presents without ripping the paper so they can use it again next year are 50% more likely to kill again.

Donald Trump winning the ‘FIFA Peace Prize’ is like when I didn’t win at school sports day so my mum made me a medal out of a yoghurt lid.

Last night I was flying home from Cologne and as we went over the English Channel I looked down at the tiny lights below me and wondered if any of them represented a boat of people trying desperately, for some godforsaken reason, to get to this terrible island. And I wished them luck, and I wished them safety, and I wished them better than here.

Sometimes you start writing and then you realise it's all too sad.

Completely broken being back at work today. This is simply not sustainable.

I don't want to be a priority all the time. I want to be a priority when it matters.

Franc, Canterbury, Kent: ‘Just great, great cooking’ – restaurant review | Grace Dent on restaurants When the cooking is this good, you don’t have to play every drum in the kit and bring in extra cymbals

Delicious French food in my old stomping ground. Will bear this in mind next time I go back...

I feel like I've made questionable decisions recently and today was no exception. I'd like to give all my decision-making powers to someone else for the rest of the year. Possibly next year as well. I can't be trusted.

A screenshot of a thread of three replies to the original photo of David Byrne at the #NoKings protest. Reply 1 from $TSLA Short Seller: he's protesting against the psycho killer. Reply 2 from DaniSue: qu'est-ce que c'est? Reply 3 from Ken Chia, some guy online: buh buh buh buh buh buh buh buh buh buh buh

The post and the replies. 10/10, no notes.

Draft 2 is going well. Only 11 scenes left to tackle. 7 of them brand new scenes to write from scratch. #AmWriting

Joyous from Ellie. Bit dusty here #strictly

Yesterday I had some really promising feedback on my WIP from my workshop group 🥰

THIS MOMENT DESERVES A BAFTA #CelebrityTraitors

I've just signed up to a running app that reckons it can shave off about 24 minutes from my current half marathon PB over the next 22 weeks. If they can do this without fully finishing off my left knee, they deserve my money.

Iain basing his showstopper around Bingate is iconic. #GBBO

Back from a few days away in Northern Ireland. Today I need to tackle the laundry, cleaning, catch up on Celebrity Traitors before I get spoilered and maybe squeeze in some writing before work tomorrow.

TODAY IS THE ONLY DAY YOU CAN REPOST THIS!!!

Can confirm New Look's customer service is excellent.

Ordered some clothes to take on holiday next week. They've been with Evri since Friday. I'm never going to get those clothes, am I?

Got up early and wrote about 500 words that weren't there before. Chipping away at Draft 2 (but also accidentally making it longer than Draft 1)

Outstanding from the Red Roses, an amazing final and result! Thrilled to have been able to witness them play in the QF 🏉 🏆 #WRWC #RedRoses

Matt was a lovely bloke who really cared about his players, I don't know anyone who covered women's football in England who's ever had a bad word to say about him. Women's football is poorer for his passing.
