What a horrible bully. And look at all the nasty little vultures circling. At least it's sunny in Glasgow today. – at Renfrew, Scotland

Little mini #PowerCut at @imperialcollege . Anyone else in London had it? I'm sure it's just atmospheric blah blah or a fault at a substation. Couldn't possibly be Russia. – at Kensington, London

Spoken to people in other rooms on campus who had the same. It reminds me of the one that happened the evening before Spain and France went down. Just gone for a few seconds, enough to make you notice, then all the clocks are flashing. #powercut #london

Just got charged £26 for a @thetimes subscription I've never used. Customer services are very quick to pick up, which is something, but there's no way they are gonna refund me for something I don't use. Absolutely scurrilous. They must be desperate for cash. – at Kensington, London

After so many years, @Microsoft #Clippy is BACK! Popping up when you don't need him, asking if you need help, patronising you and getting things wrong. This time he's called himself #Copilot. I wish he would get in the bin. – at Kensington, London

The show is indeed over. And I was on a Twitter Break. And now I'm back thinking how incredibly lucky I was to be part of my first powerful and positive company at @TheRSC – at London, England

I took a break from this binfire, but you've gotta be in it to win it I guess. Hello whoever this is served to. I'm only really posting this to start the long to convincing the algorithm that I'm a human making content, unlike most of the accounts that get pushed to the front. – at Kensington, London

I'm reading why The Fall Guy hasn't made great box office compared to Barbie and it's worth logging that I first heard of The Fall Guy via articles about it not selling. Barbie I knew was coming long before it landed. It's not about the market. It's about the advertising spend. – at Kensington, London

This whole fecking "oh sorry we ruthlessly and systematically killed the WRONG innocent people by mistake" thing is getting me very uncomfortable. – at Kensington, London

I can't help feeling that this is the final nail in the coffin for @guildhallschool acting, certainly for a decade or so. An exclusively academic training rarely makes a practitioner. The university has taken over. theguardian.com/stage/2024/m… – at Wandsworth, London

For those saying that the quality of the A.I book is determined by the quality of the prompt, I would suggest that a good ballpark length for a promotion to get a really good book would be 70,000 - 120,000 words. – at Wandsworth, London
