It doesn’t matter whether the rate of global warming is increasing. It’ll never cease to amaze me that people don’t care that it’s happening at all. It should be the most alarming thing ever.
It is absurd to say that I feel I am not yet grown up. I am not laying claim to perpetual youth (though 89 is something of a surprise), and youth I was never much aware of when I had it. What I mean is, there has never come a time when I could be thought to have acquired dignity, common sense, still less worldly wisdom, qualities that supposedly come with age and get lost with age, too. One doesn't look for common sense from someone over 90.
counts. When I enter a room full of people (these days a rarity) I am 16. Except in the even more rare occasion of entering a room of 16-year-olds, when I am 90. I have the credentials but I don't seem to have the baggage. Once upon a time, I think I imagined age itself as an eminence, years were a plinth, it had prospects even if the end was clouded in mist. A virtue of age is that it emancipates one from class. The old are in a class of their own. It also bestows a privilege of plain speaking.

Daniel Levy might not have been everybody’s cup of tea, and his tenure as Tottenham’s Chief Executive might well have run it’s course, but he has every right to be sat in his exotic holiday home smoking a massive cigar, drinking the finest single malt money can buy, and laughing his head off.
Last year when I was checking into a hotel, the desk person was wearing Meta glasses. I kindly asked them to take them off. They were annoyed. I said, “I do not consent to you looking at my credit card and ID with Meta glasses on.” My instincts were correct: www.bbc.com/news/article...
Every couple of months or so, someone puts out a piece of bad social science meant to undermine the case for more housing. For Roosevelt Institute, I wrote a blog post responding to the two most recent specimens. rooseveltinstitute.org/blog/there-i...

The team at the bottom of the league just took seven points from their last three home games against Arsenal, Villa and Liverpool, scoring in stoppage time in each. Sounds like a pretty competitive league to me.
I’m struck by how every day the admin is like “whoever could have foreseen these consequences?!” when the consequences thus far — evacuations, the closure of the Strait of Hormuz, rise in gas prices, etc. — are all the literal most obvious consequences.

That’s going to be fun, given that Spain is part of the EU. Does he realise that this would have to - by treaty - result in a collective response? I sort of assume this is mostly blather, & will be gone from his failing mind by Friday, but I also kind of want to see what happens if he remembers.
