Unapologetically South London

[Mayor of London, Sadiq Khan @MayorofLondon]

Complaining about nightlife when you *checks notes* choose to live in Soho is like living in South Kensington and complaining about the museums.

Or moving to Hackney and grumbling about creatives. Living in Richmond and hating green space. 

It's all getting a bit silly, isn't it?

When will people understand that this predatory pricing model will always be true of anything coming out of Silicon Valley? It is literally their only model. 1. Operate at a loss so everyone signs up 2. Wipe out competitors 3. Slam users with profane monopolistic costs

The kind of innovation that the UK should be embracing nationwide.
This is a wonderful initiative.

We are in capitalism’s final stage, where global capital can’t expand or sustain past profits. It now consumes public institutions and key systems, sacrificing democracy, welfare, infrastructure, education, healthcare, and ecosystems for short-term gain.

[ALASTAIR CAMPBELL @campbellclaret]

Could at least one journalist, just once, when one of their colleagues is brushed off like this, just step in and say “no, we are not moving in, because you’ve avoided this all week …” They’re too easily pushed aside

what a privilege to be able to see, hear, breathe, walk and talk.

How do you even fix this thinking

[Adele Bloch @adele_bloch]

everyone wants a village, but no one wants to be a villager

> drive your friends to the airport
> go to their party even when you're tired
> stop cancelling last minute
> host at your place
> support the wins & losses

it's worth every ounce of effort

I love to look over at my fellow drivers on the road and see that driving is only like their 5th or 6th priority at the moment.

I think a fundamental problem of the UK is how old people think young people don't deserve the benefits they had

18 months later and there’s even more flats, a padel club and even less people 🧐 #WhoLivesInVauxhall

The combined tuition fees of the entire Question Time panel would not cover my cost for 1 year of uni.

Is that fair?

Majority of the Serie A best 11 agree that Scott McTominay is the best player

[SNY Giants @SNYGiants]

Jameis Winston was asked what his favorite Thanksgiving dish is:

"My wife, man, she makes some kale collard greens. Her family’s from New Orleans so she makes a nice Creole dressing. It’s unbelievable. One of her cousins, her auntie, she always ships us some gumbo for us to start off the day with some gumbo. So, man, it’s a beautiful thing.

Taysom Hill put me on this turkey. I’m typically a ham person, but Taysom Hill put me on this Uncle Ray’s turkey. They ship this turkey right to your door, you pop that thing in the oven and I’m talking about, it is succulent. That thing is juicy, it’s spicy, oh my gosh, it’s amazing."

I agree with this, just as I don’t think one should wear slippers and pajamas in public at all, barring some emergency. You hear older folks tell you all the time how people used to get dressed up to fly back in the 60s-80s. Different, better times. Okay.

Here’s the problem: flying today is a humiliating, uncomfortable experience. You’re crammed like sardines onto a plane the same size they used to be, but with 40% more seats. You’re not served a meal—if you’re lucky you get half a can of ginger ale and a little Biscoff sugar cube. The flight attendants are often rude. The whole experience is more like taking a public bus except it costs hundreds of dollars.

And I’m fine with that. You’re still crossing the country in a few hours. It’s a miracle. But you can’t be mad when people start dressing to match the unpleasant experience. Make flying *nice* again and maybe you’ll see a change.
