Life is just us lying about confident we are in order to befriend people who we one day hope we can trust enough to admit we were lying about how confident we are.
The way to explain London is this: this man called Count Binface, who really did change his legal name to Count Binface, and, as you can hopefully see, has a bin face, stood in the election for Mayor, and, when the results were announced, he got more votes than the far right did.

With 102/107 councils declared, and counting still going on, the Tories have lost 453 local council seats so far. Together with 1063 last year, and 485 lost in 2022, this means that there are now 2001 fewer Tory councillors than there were three years ago.
British political parties as Doctor Who monsters.... 🧵 Tories = Daleks Shouty, pimpled Nazi wannabes who will exterminate anything. Have mad plans that obvs won't work - sending refugees to Rwanda / removing the earth's core to pilot it around the cosmos, etc.

I’m fed up with people pointing out all the mistakes in my poetry so I’ve written them this poem; it’s called ‘Pedant’s’.

Lord Byron died #OTD 1824. This watercolour shows him is his gown during his time at Cambridge. As a nobleman, he was allowed to wear a fancy silk gown in his own choice of colour, with elaborate gold decorations. Byron’s was dark green. (📸 credit: Nottingham City Libraries)

As me have been feeling a little bit DOWN, me decided to have a look on OUTPOST GRUNTLEIGH BASE! It the website for FANS of my DAILY POSTS.🤗 Hoped to read some NICE THINGS about myself. But them aren't writing nice things about me AT ALL....in fact them all seem to DESPISE me!🥺
I imagined that having “Hello, world!” use an insane overloading of the left-shift operator was intended as a terrible warning about the sort of language you were dealing with.

One of my most memorable days was the day I saw someone write a sigma notation sum indexed by an abstract *set* rather than just a range of numbers. I love that there are Eldritch mathematical objects that are calculated by, like, summing over all possible permutations of 1 to N

There's actually a lot of bad writing in academia. But pointing to a passage with long words you don't understand is a phenomenally bad way of evidencing that.

@TobyDSmith @njj4 My problem with "fake it till you make it" is that I then become convinced I am still faking it even when I am making it and deep down I don't believe I deserve any success at all.
@njj4 @bechillcomedian Although it’s never been easy for me, I’ve had some positive experiences with the “fake it till you make it”/“walk in like you own the place” mentality. I sort of ask myself “How would a superconfident person talk to (e.g.) this shop assistant?”. But I often get it very wrong 😊
She’s kind of right. Cates got to a Cambridge to study genetics, then set up a company commercialising food bank management, then became a leading fundamentalist hard-right Tory in a govt. that gave Michelle Mone lots of other people’s money.
