These reports about a rise in anxiety: I wonder if some other fellow long-term sufferers also feel weirdly calm. My theory is that we rehearse catastrophic what-if situations in our heads so often when a real crisis happens we're quite good at it.

This is just to say

I have declined
The meeting request
That you sent
This morning

And which
You were probably
Hoping
I would attend

Forgive me
My Outlook calendar
Is up to date
And I am already busy you idiot

A million, a billion, and a trillion are different sizes, but we don’t appreciate the huge increases between them. A million seconds from now is just shy of 11 days and 14 hours. Not so bad. I could wait that long. It’s within 2 weeks. A billion seconds is over thirty‑one years.

@pierrenovellie @catherinegee @TicketmasterUK @FrankOnTheRadio Ahah, don't worry. Already booked. KOJI!

There's "restricted view" seats and then there are "RESTRICTED VIEW" seats @TicketmasterUK 🤦‍♀️

The app is called “You’re Cancelled.” When you’ve made plans that you wish you could cancel, you go into the app and press a little button. If the other person presses theirs too, congratulations! Confetti exploded and your plans are cancelled.

@snowballio Just read both of these and now I hate myself.

Ego-depletion is an idea that makes us less likely to accomplish our goals by providing a rationale to quit when we could otherwise persist. https://t.co/j5INDiqafS via @nireyal

Flight attendant: Is there a doctor onboard?

Dad: *nudging me* that should've been you

Me: Not now Dad

Dad: Not asking for a Product Manager to help, are they?

Me: Dad, there's a medical emergency happening right now

Dad: Go and see if “let’s have a follow-up meeting" helps

@ANDREWGAVED They are lovely. I’d recommend going back to the Radio X back catalogue too (if only so my original joke lands)

[Vic Thompson @VicThompson]

@ANDREWGAVED delighted to hear you on EJ&JR! Are you on email?
