Unlike Clarkson, or Sugar, Andrew Neil actually fronted BBC politics programmes, at the same time was the publisher of a right-wing Conservative magazine and freely expressed his very right wing opinions on Twitter.
Not once did he come under pressure to step down

I wanted dinner recommendations so I scraped 13,000+ London restaurants and accidentally discovered Google Maps is running a shadow economy. Anyway here's a dashboard and a political economy thesis: open.substack.com/pub/laurenle...
How Google Maps quietly allocates survival across London’s restaurants - and how I built a dashboard to see through it
I wanted a dinner recommendation and got a research agenda instead. Using 13000+ restaurants, I rebuild its ratings with machine learning and map how algorithmic visibility actually distributes power.

Endless lols at the guy who came to Molly Crabapple's online talk about the Bund to tell her it was all just 'Palestinian propaganda'. This is an entirely new and special kind of stupid.

then, the transphobes , feeling victorious at how many people they have made unhappy and despairing in the previous week, move on to anything else that has a spectrum and the possibility of more colours than they can conceive - such hateful people - they cannot understand anything that is not THEM

On the plus side, establishing that it is my laptop's battery charging circuit rather than the actual battery that is fucked has led to a lot of crap falling out of the keyboard due to all that turning upside down. Every cloud etc.

Immensely frustrating that I can't stream tonight, but my laptop is buggered and until I get that fixed - which could well take a while - there's no way to do it.
On the plus side, you won't have to deal with me plaintively posting my going live updates twice a week, for a while. So there's that.

Good lord. Turns out a song I thought for many years was a Christine Perfect tune (which I've been covering for a long time) is in fact much older.
I mean obvs, but when truth finally bats you upside the head it does, and rightly. Ow. (1/2)

I like how full text search of every book and human thought ever was a SOLVED PROBLEM in 2001, and now dicks at search engines and my own phone – a piece of silicon faster to respond than God was ever imagined in scripture – prevent it from working, _as a retroactive infantilizing design choice_.

FWIW, I just added a few songs to the Official Wayne Streaming Repertoire - now up to 76 of the buggers: www.streamersonglist.com/t/drpoopys/s... - this is the kind of thing you'll get if you tune in on a Tuesday or Saturday evening.

A fun stream. Two hours playing my heart out across a wide variety of styles and three different instruments. Vvv few actual viewers just yet, but these things take time and my music is definitely an acquired taste or five. So that's ok too, for certain values of 'ok'. Boo to genre.
