It's your friendly coworking session this Thursday 5th September at Novotel Paddington Village. That's right next to the Spine Building.
We'll be there from 9am to 5pm for work and chats. 😁 Hopefully see you there.

Random thoughts, with TV basically a slowly dying media, especially with the rise of streaming, I wonder how many shows where only popular because there was literally nothing else on; In this day and age, there's so many different shows you can stream, and yet many probably
have a show that they stick up on streaming which is a safe bet for mediocre entertainment without the investment of getting into it, akin to the type of shows you'd have on in the background when doing literally anything else, but, I wonder, how many shows where only made
grew up in a rundown industrial city in a council estate, a notorious one at that, and haven't had much luck graduating in a pandemic; but, at least in the UK, it's a very similar state, and we don't really realise how bad it is until it's far too late in the scheme of things.
Many of these companies partner with USDA to bring your kids school meals, school breakfasts 'food baskets' for the poor, etc. This cannot be ignored as one possible reason that poor, disadvantaged people have higher rates of diet-related diseases. #socialdeterminants #nutrition
cereals are fortified with vitamins to cover up the lack of proper access to "clean" food; "health" foods are touted as beneficial but tend to leave people hungry due to them practically being 50% sugar, thus, "3 meals a day" AND SNACKS!
