    Do you want to discuss boring politics?

    It’s the idea they all get benefits that gets me. I’ve seen quite a lot of actual hard right racist stuff on Twitter recently (Thanks Elmo), and it’s literally TikTok’s of a non white person with a council house and a bunch of racists going “See!! Illegals getting British people’s houses!!” It...

    We’ve had loads of laws that do that. Saw something interesting. YouGov salience of immigration as n issue for voters. As a whole immigration has been dropping as a concern since 2016, to way below where it was. But it’s come up again. However only for Tory voters. Labour voters it’s still...

    Do you want to discuss boring politics?

    Did we see a big productivity increase post 1980s reforms here and in the US? Not really. When we are inventing things like the car or the toilet we see significant gains but not so much with Disney+ and iPhones. Capitalism hasn’t slowed down the last 40 years but arguable relevant technological...

    Dumbest work meetings

    That’s proper shitty. I would have taken the chance to talk about the importance of communication and how a five second email could have saved hundreds of not thousands in wasted wages all round.

    I do. Scientific progress has happened under all kinds of economic systems, even communism. Unless we think the wheel was VC backed.

    Dumbest work meetings

    I like a good retro where you can honestly say what the problems are. If you’ve got someone in there like a manager who can’t handle feedback it’s a total waste of time though.

    Amazing. By cracking down on immigrants we’ve managed to make them more privileged than British citizens. This government is so spectacularly bad it’s quite impressive.

    Did you know if a gunman comes into your place of work you should hide? Obviously you didn’t. You haven’t done the training.

    Dumbest work meetings

    Not a meeting but just been asked to refresh two and a half hours of training that I did nine months ago on ground breaking topics like “what’s a good password?” And “how to survive a terrorist attack”

    When I was a teen I stayed at a mates house and he filled everyone’s trainers with cheesy beans over night. Horrible and genius in equal measure.

    Dumbest work meetings

    Just had another hour added to my meeting load. “Insights session” where someone will go through a load of pointless graphs about how we are performing. Surely your job as a manager is to parse that shit and just tell us what’s changing and why?
