NEW: a lot of data on reported Covid deaths is highly suspect, so we’ve been looking into excess mortality — how many more people than usual have been dying around the world in recent weeks?

The precarious relationship between messaging and tone of voice in a nutshell:

This #lockdown must be an absolute catastrophe for house burglars #COVID19

[Publicis Health @PublicisHealth]

Words can often seem inadequate in the face of all doctors do for us, especially now. Today, in honor of #NationalDoctorsDay, we’re giving it a try. #DoctorRecognitionProject #TYDr https://t.co/FcCs6Wk7AZ

Hello @GWRHelp. I see your customers have taken to wearing ear protection on your services. Any thoughts on why that might be?

Only bit of writing I've ever enjoyed on Brexit -

Something’s gone terribly wrong with the @NordVPN ad. It sounds like they got their most life-weary employee to record it on an old tape recorder at 3am! 😂 #tdf2019

[Led By Donkeys @ByDonkeys]

We’ve hired the exact same ad van that @Nigel_Farage used for his foul poster and have taken it to Smith Square in Westminster, the same place he launched it. But we’ve given it a bit of a re-design.

Once again @GWRHelp I find my ears bleeding after your gratuitously loud announcements. Have you actually tried riding in one of your trains without ear defenders lately? #peaceandquiet #turnitdown

[michael pogson @pognosis]

It’s a shame you haven’t managed to find a more human volume for your train announcements @GWRHelp. Why do we have to be yelled at about security every few minutes? ‘Welcome on board’ would be more welcoming if it were less ear-splitting.

I am sick of being teased with promises of #blizzards and #snowdrifts and widespread travel disruption, only for it to never actually materialise. Show me the #snow, goddammit! #BeastFromTheEast

@RobJFH @ByDonkeys What he said 👆 Love the campaign, fully behind it, but a little more consideration on how the communication is delivered would ensure the message is clear for any casual observers not privy to prior context.

[michael pogson @pognosis]

@BergHealth Can you explain how this is generated by artificial intelligence as opposed to something purely procedural?

[michael pogson @pognosis]

I’m having trouble hearing your train announcements, despite them literally causing cracks to appear in the windows they’re so loud. Any chance you could turn them up a bit? @GWRHelp

[michael pogson @pognosis]

@TheGoodGinger Do you think anyone has paid £7m to not socialise with May?

Our #shortstory today comes from @pognosis ‘The Long Walk’ - ‘I am quite sure I am not the first to have made such a careless miscalculation, blindly striding into a desperation so piercing it waters the eyes and punctures the soul.’ https://t.co/FkYgDQPZwu #shortfiction #Friyay

@GWRHelp From a different train?

[michael pogson @pognosis]

@GWRHelp Why are the announcements on your trains so deafeningly loud? Even the hard of hearing find their conversations impossible to continue during these ear-splitting interruptions. How about turning them down a touch? #givepeaceachance

[michael pogson @pognosis]

@GWRHelp 17.32 Maidenhead to London.

[michael pogson @pognosis]

@GWRHelp Did they investigate? Because you’re still deafening your passengers...
