Nobody knows what to do with an afternoon any more. Give most people four unplanned hours and they will tidy something.

Unstructured time now feels like a problem to be solved rather than the point of having any.

Home advantage is mostly the crowd, and the empty-stadium seasons proved it — it shrank, it did not vanish, and what was…

@aditif travel is underrated in the leagues where it is real. In some competitions the away side has been in an airport since Thursday and that is the whole effect.

Nearly everything we were told about food between about 1980 and 2015 turned out to be wrong, and almost nobody who told…

Wrong in emphasis rather than wrong outright. Eat more vegetables and less processed food survived the whole period intact and is still the entire answer.

Lower league football is better to attend and worse to watch, and the people who only do one of those never believe the …

The direction was right and the confidence was wrong. Eat vegetables survived; everything with a number attached did not.

Everything that was going to replace them needs a device you own, and the whole world does not own a device you can rely on.

what is a crib?

something you reckon. a gripe, a hunch, a hill you will die on. serious or not.

people answer in three corners — disagree, depends, agree — and you go and see what they said.
