The Tap Into Podcast is now live! 2 years ago with @NewhamBookshop @nickwallis came to the Tap to talk about a scandal in the Post Office - little did any of us then now what was about to happen https://t.co/9Vv0pzBNpq

@alwaysbecomedy can you please let me know if there are any last minute returns for tonight.

@thisisyogic @bbgconnects @MOLArchaeology @Clayground_Co Ah, this is why it was closed when Hannah and I were planning to go in the weekend before! Looks and sounds good. We'll try again!

[Ben Pygall @benpygall]

@thisisyogic Looks tastefully done too! Nice to see.

This is AI witchcraft, it really is. I can describe a web page 'HTML source of a web page called "Yoko Ono's Tweets" that creates random things that Yoko Ono might tweet using Javascript' and the thing actually runs. [Video in next tweet]

The Parliament Square bus stop had the result long before anyone else did.

Very reassuring to see a civilised hand-over of power in Australia

G'd on yer, mates !

Kinda curious how a 4 bedroom house in Camberwell bought for £1.2 million three years ago merits only "the registration of rental income of at least £10,000 a year" by the Prime Minister. I know he'll incur expenses, but doesn't £833 pcm seem... well, low?

Boris didn't introduce the Freedom Pass when mayor of London.
It was already being run/funded by the 33 London boroughs. It still is.
His Government prevented older Londoners using the Freedom Pass before 930am (under a @tfl bailout) three months after the start of the pandemic.

The clever people at @NASA have created this deceptively simple yet highly effective data visualisation showing monthly global temperatures between 1880-2021. Watch until the end...

The first @Raspberry_Pi, designed by Cambridge engineers and computer scientists, launched 10 years ago today.

It's sold more than 40 million units, created jobs, and taught a generation how to code: https://t.co/NxZ6Tuxjsz

This whole thread is great. At the start of the pandemic I was inundated with (well meaning) offers of help for the NHS - the majority of which were just totally impractical.
Sometimes, the best thing you can do is get out of the way and stop snarking on Twitter.

Rat Records, a fixture of the area for at least as long as I've lived here, is closing down—unless you'd like to buy it…

George Eustice said that Johnson made the Savile slur “in the heat of the moment”.

No, that’s false. It’s well known it was pre-meditated because it is well documented that he had wanted to use line before going into PMQs - and was advised against it.
