We urgently need to focus on ventilation. Six months into a respiratory pandemic, we're still not given sensible and practical guidance against short-range aerosol—airborne—transmission of COVID. I wrote about the science & what it means we should do now. theatlantic.com/health/archive…

One of my favourite things in Spanish football this season is that @SDHuesca's captain Jorge Pulido change his captain armband for every of their 21 away matches in Segunda, and with it teach us about Spain. Here's the story (Thread) 👇

In 2013 MK Dons U16 Midfield consisted of Dele Alli, Brendan Galloway and Sheyi Ojo. The U15 age group had Danny Collinge and Kevin Danso playing CB together Those two age groups at MK Dons (97/98 born) were fantastic. Alli was a holding MF that year... youtu.be/ZfIyvzeFKHE

People who say - authorities should take statues down after discussion. Yes. But it isn't happening. Bristol'sbeen debating #EdwardColston for years and wasn't getting anywhere. In 2018, it was agreed that statue would bear a plaque noting his involvement in the slave trade. BUT

Rumsfeld, 2003, on looting in Baghdad (which had devastating effects on Iraq long-term). "While no one condones looting... one can understand the pent-up feelings that may result from decades of repression and people who have had members of their family killed by that regime..."

There’s currently an annoying helicopter circling around while I’m trying to work. I assume it’s the police checking that, as per the latest government guidance, everyone’s doing whatever the fuck they like.

Another excellent piece by @edyong: this one on our patchwork pandemic. "Our choices are to remake society or let it be remade, to smooth the patchworks of old and new, or let them fray even further." theatlantic.com/health/archive…
