Here to procrastinate. What news, friends? She/her.

@robinhouston @asmeurer Sainsbury's sells them in 15s. It's just wrong.

[Laniball @Laniball]

@j4 Ours was fixed relatively easily, think it just needed a new element. Man came, man fixed.

[Laniball @Laniball]

@sainsburys That bears no relationship to anything I was told by your helpline.

[Laniball @Laniball]

@sainsburys helpline's just told me if I order more than 11 of a single item the order will go through but then the whole order will be cancelled on the day with no warning unless I ring them 7 days in advance. If this is true (and I treble-checked) people really need to know.

[Laniball @Laniball]

I specifically checked they really mean the whole order, and there is really no warning given.

[Laniball @Laniball]

@realSirrom @ItzDoodles @peterframpton US population is almost exactly 5 times UK. 33 years is approx 1,700 weeks.

@4Viewers @Channel4 This is tricky. Because that's what I did. And as my initial tweet said, all they have done is ask me the same questions over and over again and ignored my answers.

[Laniball @Laniball]

So @Channel4, your complaints procedure is that you ask me for details, then you ask me for different details, then you ask me for the first set of details again. And again. And again. How do I exit this loop?

[Laniball @Laniball]

And can I get a refund for the weeks we've spent playing this game while I get nothing for my subscription?

[Laniball @Laniball]

@griffinkate @j4 @innovation_eon Well I didn't know they'd changed the ratings so I have learnt something. But I think there's an error in the car engine one.

[Laniball @Laniball]

@robinhouston I learn as much of this as I need for my postcode. With the exception of U, which I I defiantly use Unicorn for because that is clearly better.

God, so much uniform bullshit in the news. Kids being made to wear jumpers in 26C heat; put in isolation for wearing skirts from Asda; sent home for wearing the wrong black shoes. It's out of control. Encourage kids to dress neatly, by all means, but this is absolute madness.

[Science girl @sciencegirl]

single file capybara, and this is why it happens

[Laniball @Laniball]

@j4 Ah yes, mine recommended meditation. Which took another 10 mins a night out of my available sleep time, slightly increasing my stress levels. Or perhaps less stressful work, he thought. Not clear how I would then afford his fees.

[Laniball @Laniball]

@j4 Also, assuming that must have been at leat 3 hours of kids concert, I'd need time to mentally prepare myself for it.

[Laniball @Laniball]

@reason_itself @TabitaSurge How about letting them use their professional judgment instead of either 'requiring' or 'banning'?

[Laniball @Laniball]

@Lisekit I consider one of the main advantages of holding a maths degree from Oxford to be feeling totally justified in counting on my fingers.

[Laniball @Laniball]

In Denmark they protest against proposed new car parks through sculpture referencing Dante.

[Laniball @Laniball]

@purserhallard This is still the one I reread bits of when I've got a few minutes spare but starting a whole book feels like too much commitment.

[Laniball @Laniball]

@j4 It is SO MUCH WORK. And it requires SO MUCH BRAIN to remember to do them in the first place. But the real killer is having to redo something you thought you'd done, because someone else has failed to do what they should have.
