Takes a lot of heart to convince kids and friends to show up for a game when everyone’s on holiday or injured, and you know you’re gonna get thumped, to avoid the -20 for conceding and have a chance of staying up next week. We salute our valiant neighbours.

Deforestation as a kids game. This is in spectacularly poor taste. Is there a kids game about burning tyres to increase your carbon output, or turning away refugees and drowning children?

Me and @neilsmithillo had a blast chatting to @chrisfloyduk about his photos and creativity - genuinely insightful and disarmingly honest. Who doesn’t want a bit of existential angst on a February Monday?

Very nice, in concept, writing and editing. Must have been quite a week in the archives. Admirable restraint showed by calling it #ThisIsOurBBC rather than FUCKOFFNADINEDORRIES though. youtu.be/FIn2YiF_Zak

Discussing the dreadful reviews and worse in-joke puns of matrix 4, @Jacksamueldavey came in with an absolute doozy. Left it till 1045 on dec 21, but it’s a fine contender for geek gag of the year.

According to Twitter, I joined it 13 years ago today. I do remember @noaddedwater trying to explain what it was to me in the @BrightBlueDay creative department in Quay House in Poole. #MyTwitterAnniversary

It's official, the latest episode of @soonpod is @CathLoveday's favourite piece of science communication this year. I'm so proud. #scicomm
Replying to @CathLoveday
I should add that @siwhite0 & @neilsmithillo made me laugh a lot during the recording but I think I laughed even more listening back. Great fun and probably my favourite bit of science communication this year.

A slightly different Something out of Nothing this week – we chat to Professor of Cognitive Neuroscience @CathLoveday about what’s going on between your ears when you have an idea. Apple apple.co/30UwJOz Spotify spoti.fi/2AFUgI1 #creativity #neuroscience #ideas
This is rather tremendous, via @izzytothewhite
Perhaps the most ridiculous aspect of this account from a ridiculous liar snitching on his mate the ridiculous liar, is that it’s so ridiculously believable
the Cummings blog on Boris Johnson & the customs union is quite an eye-opener
This question needs a RT...
Question: has anyone older than our 92-year-old president Clarence Modeste, striding out to face the new ball at @Merioncricket on Saturday, opened the batting anywhere in the world this year?
