How I lost @rival. Email got hacked, requested new password for Twitter, deleted all my old tweets, sent some bomb threats, changed name.

🔊 I am finally releasing v1.0 of Citadel 2 for the Acorn Electron 48K, ported from the BBC Micro (by Symo for Superior Software). Still MODE2 and at the same speed as the Beeb but with flicker-free sprites.

A word in your ear, Mr Trump and America.
Don’t ask to host a World Cup if you are not prepared to welcome with equality and open arms all the countries who have qualified fairly & squarely for it, and who have every right to be part of it. https://t.co/ZOuk1QsS6f

On the topic of ‘just get on with it’ this is one of our smaller nature reserves. From finding the land for sale, buying it, planting 100,000 trees and digging 6 ponds it took less than 18 months to create a new haven for nature. @paulpowlesland

@JBondPersuader Octopussy is the Bond movie where there is the greatest discrepancy between my opinion of it, and the general received opinion. I much prefer it over A View to a Kill for instance.

Clarion Housing destroyed an active swift colony by demolishing a building early, breaching the Wildlife and Countryside Act. Tell the Surrey Police crime commissioner to enforce the law 👉https://t.co/cZqGFTt3uc It’s #worldswiftday but no one gives a monkeys.

The Somerset Farmhouse of 1 North Street, Williton were approached by a "food influencer" that wanted to charge them £2,000 for a review.

They put out a video of Sally eating a sausage roll instead 😆.

Lets make Sally and the Somerset Farmhouse famous for free.

@Prof_Quiteamess This is my absolute Dr Who heresy: My favourite era of Dr Who is BBC EDA books. I was a bit sad when it came back on the telly because I knew they were going to stop doing these amazing books.

Do you think that if you do text "POTUS" to 45470, you get notified when he wakes up?

The President of the United States is asleep at his desk. Again.

Behind him stand seven grown adults in expensive suits, and not one of them is doing anything about it. One is mid-sentence. Another is gazing sideways with the haunted look of a man whose pension depends on never acknowledging what he can see in his peripheral vision.

The rest of the world is watching, and the rest of the world has noticed something. Americans are terrified of authority. That fear has settled over this administration like a fog, and it turns otherwise functional adults into warm furniture. Nobody moves. Nobody speaks. The paralysis is total.

In any European parliament, in any boardroom from Oslo to Ljubljana, someone would have leaned over by now. Tapped a shoulder. Said, quietly but clearly, that perhaps this isn’t the moment. Somebody would have done something, because the alternative, pretending a sleeping man is running a meeting, would have been too absurd to sustain.

Not here. Here, seven men have collectively decided that the correct professional response to the President losing consciousness in the Oval Office is to carry on as though he were a particularly demanding houseplant.

His date of birth is 17 Dec 2005. Please retweet this. If you know him, please tell him to remain anonymous. He just needs to contact DKMS, even if it’s to say ‘no’. That would give us closure.

There is a man on the train talking loudly about mortgages. Improper use of the emergency stop is only a £500 fine. I'm weighing it up.

@DecodingFoxNews @TheRickWilson I think it's just untrue

What’s the one website/app you still think about?

When Metropolitan Police officer Wayne Couzens kidnapped and murdered Sarah Everard, Nigel Farage released a five-minute video urging people not to attack men or the police.

Today, in response to the murder of Henry Nowak, he called for "pure cold rage."

Every day, ships leave this russian owned factory in Ireland straight for St Petersburg carrying thousands of tonnes of raw alumina for the war machine.

There’s corruption everywhere. Locals tell me politicians are bought by oligarchs.

Ireland is no longer militarily neutral.

@anon_opin The first series of Disco is my favourite Star Trek
