You’re a medieval peasant farmer. You’re at the bottom rung of society—bound to the land with limited social mobility… But life isn’t all bad. Here’s what it looks like🧵

West Ealing High Street A cyclist rides through 2 red pedestrian lights (overheard) £100 a light they tell him. Then let him go on his way? Cyclists like this one, give good cyclists a bad name. If they fined him, he would think twice about doing it again. As it is....... – at Ealing, London

My hot take is that if they'd released She's Electric as a single it would have been number one.

Well here we go. I haven't listened to this in years all the way through. Very curious to see what I think now.. is it a good album or a great one?

The new provost of @Eton_College in today’s @Telegraph He says most of his friends are Old Etonians - and if he meets somebody who did not go there “I do admit…that it counts against them slightly.” Was there not a candidate with a more open mind?

The most infuriating thing about party conferences is the refusal to call it 'the' conference. 'They are at conference...' It has such an irritating gate-keepy vibe to it. Like if you said 'the' conference to Rees-Mogg he'd sneer and correct you. – at Dubai, United Arab Emirates
