Fortunately, since cancel culture really doesn’t exist at all, this is a terrific own goal and Alexei Sayle’s Desert Island Discs is likely to have higher listener numbers now than any other. I didn’t know he was on. I’ll be tuning in on Sunday. #IStandWithAlexeiSayle

@learnsicilian I remember going to Poland and being warned that they think sauerkraut goes with everything. This was from British people. I’ve lived my whole life in the UK and even I’m amazed sometimes how much the The British seem to hate food. How determined they are to ruin it.

@avauntguard Man that sucks. I was once in a small off-licence, chatting with the proprietor who recommended a beer called Jacobite Ale. I said I’d tried it before but ended up with a terrible Hannover. They just assumed I’d said hangover a bit weird and carried on. I was gutted.

My guess is that the venn diagram of women with high testosterone and women who become elite athletes has a very large area of overlap. Will they medicate them all?

@MForstater How many female athletes have testosterone in the male range? We don’t know because we only test them if people think they don’t look ‘feminine’ enough and complain. It wouldn’t be that surprising if the kind of women who become elite athletes are mostly those with high levels.
