Glad to have you aboard reader, but remember there is only one captain of this subway

Louder for the people in the back, please.

@RobertJenrick You're like a real life Batman. In that you choose to use your considerable power to target street level criminals rather than those who cheat and rob this country of billions. Glad you're standing up to the Establishment

If we were all to send Danny Tommo an @RNLI Christmas card simply containing "LOL", it would make a lot of money for a brilliant charity and be hilarious at the same time.

Cards can be purchased here https://t.co/2PvVra0h5T

Please spread the word.

Herodotus: “I met a man in the shape of a hot dog dancing at a party”

Modern scholar: “Herodotus, you RETARD, we all know that people don’t come in the shape of a hot dog. Your work is untrustworthy.”

@AyoCaesar You make me proud to be from the UK. That's become harder and harder to achieve. Thank you for all you do.

Frank Herbert sited Lawrence of Arabia as a major influence on Dune. When you watch or read them it cannot be unseen.

Where did Half Man Half Biscuit get their name from? And what might an Elbow tribute band be called? A clip from Half Man Half Biscuit: An Appreciation, recorded at The CAT Club, streaming now on the RouteTV YouTube channel. Link in comments.

@TheRedmenTV I know Right Wing is his position and he's a solid player, but he's not left footed. £50 mil for a 28yr old feels a bit steep but we want £70-£80 mil for a 27yr old Gakpo so I guess it's the maket rate. Doesn't really fit in with the profile of players we've bought in the FSG era

In 1988 Dolly Parton pulled every 7th and 8th grader in Sevier County into a room and told them to pick a buddy.

She made them sign a contract.. if BOTH graduate, she hands you both $500. One fails, nobody gets paid.

The county dropout rate went from 35% to 6%.

She handed out the checks herself.

In 1989 she offered $500 to every kid in the county who wanted to go to the local college.

When Gatlinburg burned in 2016, she sent 900 families $1,000 a month for six months.

You've probably heard that part.

Here's the part you haven't:

The fund raised more than expected, so she showed up in May and handed every one of those families another $5,000 on top.

Then she quietly put $3 million into the recovery group that handles the years after the news trucks leave.

She built her county an entire hospital.

She played a benefit concert in 2007, Dollywood and the Stampede matched it, and LeConte Medical Center opened in 2010 with a birthing unit and a women's center in it.

In 2022 she started covering 100% of tuition, books, and fees for Dollywood employees.

Full-time, part-time, AND seasonal.

In 1991 she paid for a bald eagle sanctuary because the birds couldn't be released back into the wild, no press release.

And when Hurricane Helene came through here in Western North Carolina, she wrote a personal check for $1 million and her companies matched it.

She didn't owe North Carolina anything, but she helped us anyway.

She started the Imagination Library because her daddy couldn't read or write. Before he passed, he told her it was the most important thing she ever did.

Rest in Peace, Dolly 🇺🇸

A BBC interviewer asked a Nobel physicist the simplest question in the world: why do two magnets push each other apart. He refused to answer it. What he did instead is the best seven minutes on thinking ever filmed.

The man is Richard Feynman, at home in 1983, no blackboard, no notes, sitting in an armchair.

He does not dodge because he cannot answer. He dodges because he wants you to see what the question is actually asking. So he takes an ordinary sentence, that a woman slipped on the ice and broke her hip, and starts asking why, and every answer opens another why, until the ground gives way.

Then he turns it around on the interviewer with a question about ice that sounds trivial and is not.

The point he arrives at is the uncomfortable one. Every explanation is only a translation into something you already accept without explanation. Magnets have no such translation. There is nothing more familiar than magnetism to reduce magnetism to, which is why every answer you were given at school was a picture, not a reason.

It matters more now than it did in 1983. Any tool will hand you a fluent answer in a second. Knowing which questions actually have a bottom is the part that is still yours.

One question. Seven minutes. It is in the video.
