Surviving by means of swearing and loud music. Lover of a well-turned phrase and history and beautiful art. Believer in giving the benefit of the doubt.

Today on @bookclubpodhq we explore a truly great book, PG Wodehouse's THE CODE OF THE WOOSTERS.

Bertie, Jeeves, the sinister Black Shorts and a stolen cow-creamer: is this the funniest book ever written? And what does it tell us about 1930s Britain?

We spend more than 90% of our time inside, so why do we design so many of our interiors like this?

Grey carpets, white walls, harsh lighting.

It's generic, boring, and genuinely bad for our physical and psychological health...

The House version of the One Big Beautiful Bill Act was fiscally irresponsible. The Senate has made it even worse.

@GuntherEagleman I would not take these numbers at face value; they are simply assertions, and nonobjective ones at that.

On this day, Jan. 27, 1302, Dante Alighieri found himself cast into the wilderness.

Not allegorically. Literally.

But only after losing everything could he find his true life's purpose.

A thread on Dante's midlife crisis, what he learned from it and you can too. 🧵👇 1/

Yesterday I returned to the British Museum for the first time in a number of years.

I reached a number of conclusions, primarily that @britishmuseum appears not only to hate Britain and British history but also, paradoxically, to really rather dislike the museum itself.

The bookshop open shelves face everyone who passes through the central Great Court and this is the message they give the hundreds of British visitors and tourists who pass them every day…
