@jposhaughnessy Most exciting new writer of fictiony stuff in quite some time. His previous book ‘When We Cease to Understand the World’ is a fine book indeed.

@traceylyno Twin Peaks - second only to The Wire in the history of…

The Bear is currently marvellous and on a higher level to most.

Bosch - not mind blowing or genre breaking but deeply watchable and sustains over many seasons.

Food for thought here, suggesting the new IHT measures could actually PROTECT farmland for future generations 🤔

@TomABacon

[Tom Bacon @TomABacon]

So, I've just spent a bit of time looking into the debate on IHT and farming. I... got a shock. First, a note: I have a friend who runs a family farm. In his view, the whole thing is a something and nothing. 🧵

The post we’ve all been waiting for from @NAChristakis - The Poop Friendship Hypothesis 💩😃

[Nicholas A. Christakis @NAChristakis]

We can actually predict who your friends are based on whether you have similar bacteria in your poop! And that metric outperforms other more usual social features, such as how you resemble your friends on a host of traits like age, sex, wealth, etc. 7/

@pmarca Why?

[Mr.O @njameso]

I’ve just finished this brilliant and engaging book by @davidmcw - I recommend the audiobook for his delightful and entertaining narrative.

I was left with one question for him at the end - is it possible that Bitcoin is simply a very elaborate form of *bling* ?

[David McWilliams @davidmcw]

It's brilliant when lots of work finally begins to come together.

My new book, Money: A Story of Humanity will be out on September 12.
