@noodlepie 22 months since I’ve done that…
@MarcSettle Yes!
Should your bookshelves reflect the person you are now, or should they encapsulate all the versions of you from earlier in your life?
Is it even social media if you don’t occasionally post photos of your lunch? t.co/0d7VcsWQc… 
Not something you see every day in Shoreham… t.co/88tMVffd4… 
I much prefer the feel of matt dust jackets when reading a hardback book to glossy ones. t.co/PXL6KHTl7…

@charlotteahenry This is Twitter. I have learnt to be eeeeeextreeeeemly careful in my phrasing, for the sake of my sanity and mentions.
@charlotteahenry I was thinking about that last night — there will eventually come a point when the most hard-core “lockdown whenever needed/zero covid” types will start to much like the most extreme “anti-lockdown/let it rip “ types did a year ago. That’s likely to be a difficult transition.
@MartinBelam Busted.
Please can we stop talking about newsletters now? Pleeeeeease?

@Simmons__ Congratulations!
John Naughton’s review of The Ugly Truth, a new book about Facebook, makes it sound like essential reading. Next on my list after I’ve finished Charles Arthur’s Social Warming. theguardian.com/books/2021/jul…

@chrismsutcliffe And finally he said “fair enough, mate.”
And he staggered off for his slash.
@chrismsutcliffe “Well, I’m used to that,” I replied.
He looked very confused for about two minutes, periodically opening and shutting his mouth as if some great follow-up was about to emerge.
@chrismsutcliffe True story: some years ago I was reading on my iPad in the local pub, when a drunk bloke on his way to the loos lurched up to me, peered at me, and then declared “that thing makes you look like a cock, mate,” in quite an aggressive way.
