It’s been a while since I’ve posted on X. But I wanted to share that I have been developing a free, daily, 2 minute trivia game designed to jumpstart the memory in the morning and get the neural nodes snapping into action. The link is below and I’d welcome your thoughts.
Daily trivia for the cultured mind. Crack the clues, collect the letters, race the final anagram. PEPPIN is a 2-minute daily brain workout for people who love arts & humanities. Free to play. peppingame.com/?v=2

I made a free daily trivia game about art, books, film and history. This is Nancy. She scored GENIUS. I have never scored GENIUS. 🙃 Have a go, it takes three minutes 👇
POV: your gran scores GENIUS on PEPPIN and she won’t let you forget it 😂 Free daily arts & humanities trivia. No app, no sign-up. Can you beat her? peppingame.com #trivia #wordgame #wordle

A thing I've been building. Two minutes a day, arts and humanities questions to activate the morning memory. Free. interested in any feedback.
Yesterday's PEPPIN: a celebrated Canadian author. Fourteen dials, landing one at a time - the closest thing an anagram game has to a drumroll. Did you get it before the dials did? peppingame.com New game drops at midnight. peppingame.com

Hmmm I thought this was easy. Would younger audiences struggle with this?
Yesterday's PEPPIN question stumped a few people. Reckon you can crack it? Drop your guess below — answer revealed in tomorrow's post. New puzzle every morning: peppingame.com

Yesterday, the question that 58% of UK players struggled to get right unaided was: Journalistic book by Truman Capote that investigated the murder of a Kansas farm family and followed the murderers to their eventual execution at the gallows? (2,4,5). peppingame.com

'Little Rishi' Sunak (apparently this is what he's called in many focus groups!) weakly approved Boris Johnson honours list The Tory party is now eating itself. Chaotic & loathed by the majority. General Election anyone? #GeneralElection theguardian.com/politics/202…

With such extensive defensive lines it feels like the Russian Generals are almost inviting the Ukraine forces to punch through from Kharkiv into Russia and then swing behind their defensive lines. What else can the Ukrainian’s do?
Ukraine trained nine new brigades for this counteroffensive. The footage posted today shows a ~company-sized element of destroyed/abandoned vehicles (most vehicles were mobility kills so many soldiers likely survived) from an assault two days ago. Let's keep this in perspective.

London pays attention to Manchester shock…the first national review of Manchester Unspun in the Financial Times yesterday. It says I write “with a vividness that might elude a conventional historian.” Which means: it’s a right good read. And it’s a very nice review.

Thanks for the feedback, we wanted to make something that would cut through the silence around #PancreaticCancer but sadly we don’t have the budget for big advertising! We wish we did! 💜

The Price is about 750$ But hope to be reimbursed within a year, its not yet launched in the UK but the company work very closely with Dr Pereira ( uclh.nhs.uk/our-services/fin… ) and hope to launch next in the UK. The test was featured in @DanKennedyFilms documentary briefly.

This brought tears to my eyes. It’s Thought-provoking. Haunting. Devastating. Ironclad. Nice work ⁦@PancreaticCanUK⁩ and ⁦@dijupp⁩ Next question, I see and hear @CRUK adverts everywhere. Do you have budget for TV, Radio & bus advertising? youtu.be/w_KZXc4oL3M
