So I’m hearing many myths about #COVID-19 and would like to quickly clear the record.

Coronavirus will go away in Sumer months.

This morning we announced that @spotify is acquiring The Ringer. Couldn’t be more excited to work with @eldsjal and his phenomenal team.

More details to come down the road... but @ringer will remain @ringer in every respect. They appreciate what we do and they want us to be us.

Just been called into the office to be told that British Milk Council are shutting down all social channels. I'm out of a job. Something about misuse of data higher up. Fuck that. I've changed the password and they're not having the account back.
