I LIKE a *lot* of shit: sci & tech (my day job!), environment & energy (ecomodernism), politics (~moderate, social-liberalism), culture & language(s), outdoors (mountains, cycling/MTB, sailing), travel, nuance & irony. 
I HATE black-&-white simplism!

I feel a thread discussing feel good knobs has the potential to go downhill but I’m in!

I mean what can’t be enlivened by a tapas meat selection? Boring sex life? Just introduce some spicy sausage! Sorry I mean chorizo…

Oh thank fuck for that! It’s bad enough in cars but it’s one key reason I’ve resisted switching from gas to an electric hob (stove/stop top in US Eng?): bc nearly all models (at least in UK) have annoying slow shitty touch controls! Fuck that.

No Covid, no RU-UA war is an interesting and perhaps diff counter-factual; because then we would have perhaps more easily* seen the impact of Brexit… ** still difficult!

As an editor, I help people say what they mean--and not say what they don’t mean. Here are some common not-quite-right words or expressions that I often see. This is not to embarrass anybody--I've made many of these mistakes myself. Please share your favorite fixes at the end of the thread. (1/n)

It was living with a Canadian housemate in med school that opened my eyes to how batshit insane it is that this island has coded *everything* from the radio station you have on in the car to whether or not you like houmous as a class issue
