@thameswater Hi, still no water and no useful updates, can you advise where we can collect bottled water or how soon it'll be restored?

@Andr6wMale Probably a bunch of ranking models applied to uplevel results from more ‘valuable’ accounts (ie monetized, new) to increase engagement on those posts, which overall dings true relevance. See if switching to ‘latest’ in the results helps (does for me sometimes).

@EwaSR I've been saying this too! I need a version feat. women from eg Sheffield or Chelmsford. Maybe we have to start it?

This isn’t a pedantic style guide gripe - by using the passive voice there is only one person indicated in these crimes: the victim. By writing in the active you are demonstrating the involvement of a third party, ie the actual person doing the assaulting.

Why is it so hard for news outlets to avoid the passive voice when talking about sexual assault? All of these headlines could read: “Senior male surgeons sexually assault almost one in three female colleagues.”

Hiking outside the UK can be one of the most powerful ways of understanding how naturally impoverished the British landscape is, particularly the high places and uplands.

I was at this show on Saturday and now it's Monday and I still can't think directly about it without welling up. Simply the most electric, uniting, life-affirming performance I've ever had the tremendous fortune to witness. Unforgettable.

“It was breathtaking. To hear Mitchell hit certain notes again in that inimitable voice was like glimpsing, in the wild, a magnificent bird long feared to have gone extinct.” - Lindsay Zoladz, @nytimes
