The census is coming up soon. Really urge people to think carefully about the religion box. It is not an attack on Irish culture or a snub to your family to say that we do not need Catholicism in our classrooms, courtrooms or clinical centres. Separation of church and state.

If you needed some good news today, this is it. It seems researchers have found the primary driver for MS. Epstein-barr virus appears to be a core component & is already a target for some vaccine trials. Genuinely looks like we could near-eradicate MS in the near future.

Dangerous language here. 'Satisfy the scientists'? Scientists are asked to report findings of available evidence. Politicians & civil servants act upon this information. Scientists, like everyone else, are people who care about jobs, society and the economy. Let's not other them.

Tip for companies: unless you are offering something to help or something free, we really dont need to know that you're 'monitoring the situation carefully'. We know this is nurture campaign marketing and it wastes our valuable time which we are trying to spend watching memes.

A note on apologies. If they are genuine, make them privately. If something is stopping you from doing that and your mistake goes public, apologise privately first, then publicly. If you apologise publicly BEFORE privately, it just screams insincerity, don't you think?

@MikeSegalov I helped Dustin Hoffman loot the contents of the room in the Dorchester while I was interviewing him about a film he had just done. Towels, bathmat, dressing gowns into this big duffel. 'The company will pay for it' he said, and winked at me.

It makes me very sad to go on Twitter some days. It's getting more and more common that I read exchanges filled with hate, intolerance, contempt and sneering. Wonder if, despite the banter, despite your brilliant answers to all my many questions, it is time to go.

Much to my immense dismay, I failed Wordle today. There will be no questions at this time.

@alxwlsdn Not sure I'd go that far! I have been very lucky in life, merely by chance of birth. Stealing a little boy's bike or an elderly woman's purse ARE shitty things to do, but inequality and lack of opportunity are real problems. Very much for reducing the 1st and increasing the 2nd.
