This episode of You're Dead To Me reminded me of the prohibition of coffee during its early history;

I first read about coffee being religiously and legally restricted in a book I found in the public library, about the history of drug regulation. A. At the time I thought it was plausible, but I was wary of what I now know as confirmation bias. Intriguing to have it confirmed by a historian on a public broadcaster.

RE
HOW DID WE PLACE SUCH A SHAKY HAND ON THE #ECONOMY❔

The reason #Trump and #rightwingmedia can keep doing nothing positive about the economy is bc people ⭕perceived Congress AND Biden as doing ZERO ACTION

So... anything Trump SAID he will do was "action"

Even raising costs from #tariffs? But we will SEE this Nov 2026 in the #midterms

You have no idea how disappointed your mother is that you're not Nick Berry. #bbc4

Pam St Clement looks my mum. My mum doesn't like that comparison, as in her younger years people said she looked like Judith Chalmers. #bbc4

What the fuck is going on? #bbc4

Those of you in #Bristol might find this evening episode of "The Architecture of Railways" of interest.
