It’s a long and weird week, there’s been a lot of time on the internet and a lot of stuff on the internet, so sorry if this is a bit long! Obviously there’s a lot linked to Coronavirus, but I’ve tried to make sure the majority is humorous, or good advice, rather than miserable or stressful, though the occasional may have slipped in, sorry. Now you see why I do this consolidating in one place, rather than sharing and retweeting all this as the week goes!
Call to day of prayer and action on Sunday 22nd.




980 years to go and Busted’s prediction that ‘not much would have changed’ by the year 3000 is looking in even more serious trouble now.

Imagine Twitter during WWII. Christ, it'd be all: what idiot didn't look at the weather forecast before giving D day the go ahead? Why are there a bunch of people doing cross words in Bletchley Park?

Saw a woman in supermarket with easily 200 cans of long-life milk in a trolley, could feel myself preparing to be snooty, but in fact she worked there and was about to fill the shelves. LIFE LESSON.

Day 1 of social distancing: we have alphabetised our bookshelves.
Day 2 of social distancing: we have arranged our books by colour.
Day 3 of social distancing: we are seriously considering actually reading one of the books.— Dave (@davechannel) March 15, 2020

Friends canceled their son’s Bar Mitzvah this weekend but decided to keep the contract with their caterer, a tiny Hmong-owned business. They delivered the food to friends in quarantine & sent pans home with others. Grateful for stories like this and for community in a bleak time.

Due to coronavirus precaution, Bob Shellard isn't allowed to visit his wife in her Connecticut nursing home. So he stood outside her window and held up a sign that said "I've loved you 67 years and still do. Happy Anniversary." https://t.co/cIwZxwmZeN pic.twitter.com/nW86SYm4HU

reckon we should have a rule from now on that involves people not tweeting about coronavirus after 10pm unless there's breaking news, reading this stuff night after night just before going to sleep isn't healthy

Mate applied for a temporary job at @Tesco this morning at 7am, got a call at 12pm to go for an interview at 3pm and has got the job! Anyone who is currently looking for any work, try all of the supermarkets as they are desperate for staff to keep the shelves stocked for us.
