Daughter just asked why I was so sad.
Ian Holm died.
- Who’s Ian Holm?
An actor.
- A great actor?
Yes. A great actor.
Alien. Lord of the Rings. Chariots of Fire. Richard III. RIP.

Pathetic, half-measures again. Appealing to employers to enforce social distancing. Johnson desperately doesn’t want to be the Prime Minister who spoilt everyone’s fun. In so doing he will be the Prime Minister who got people killed.

From now on I’m going to arrive into every room like this owl who has a stick. And everyone else will react like the little middle owl. And I will be like an owl with a big stick. And I will be magnificent.

Today’s outcome in Harvey Weinstein’s New York trial is the result of the decisions of multiple women to come forward to journalists and to prosecutors at great personal cost and risk. Please keep those women in your thoughts today.

I know I don't have many Twitter followers, but I don't really have an outlet where I can talk about what I feel was a huge injustice and I would appreciate any shares to get my word out.
So here is the story of how I lost my job at CeX for reporting sexual harrassment.

Sick of this ‘50 is the new...’ 50 has always been 50. Women were previously just expected to shrivel and accept their husk. I suppose it must be terrifying to a lot men if we actually burned brighter, hotter, more ambitious and emancipated from shame, the older we got. #50

It's impossible to overstate the impact he & all the Pythons had on comedy. Thank you for a lifetime of laughs, sir.

Gove employing a subtler version of Trump’s ‘Fake News’ - trying to discredit any outlet that wants to hold them to account.
He does this rather than actually answer the question about hospitals.
cf banning critical newspapers from PM’s campaign bus
“What you're doing…is mounting a rigorous left-wing case for a particular political point of view.”
Michael Gove responds to @C4Ciaran asking him whether the Conservatives will build six or 40 new hospitals.

So this happened. The Conservative Party took an interview from @GMB this morning. They edited it to add on the last shot in which Keir Starmer looks stumped. But that didn't happen. In the original Keir Starmer immediately answered @piersmorgan 's question.

Once again, the great Barack Obama managed to move me to tears in his elegant and eloquent eulogy to the goant Elijah Cummings. In blending a perfect vision of the brotherhood of man and how it calls us to make a garden of gods green earth, we are reminded of what can be.

The United States goes back thousands of years? Damn, @realDonaldTrump, I did not know that. Thank you for enlightening us. Maybe next time, have a competent adult vet your teleprompter script.
President @realDonaldTrump just wrapped up a joint press conference with President Mattarella of Italy.
“The United States and Italy are bound together by a shared cultural and political heritage dating back thousands of years to Ancient Rome." 🇺🇸🇮🇹

Is there a photo of Dominic Cummings where he *doesn't* look as if he has a dead body in the boot of his car?

There’s a shortage of perfect movies in this world. It would be a pity to damage this one.
Sony Pictures Entertainment CEO Tony Vinciquerra says that “very famous people whose names I won’t use” want to redo Norman Lear’s ‘The Princess Bride’ bit.ly/30qHpQM

Boris Johnson says his resignation would achieve nothing.
Well, at least Boris Johnson would have resigned.

Followers, don’t be unduly disheartened by what happened today. It was a procedural not a substantive defeat. All defeats are bad in great national causes, but this one is tactical not lethal.
Lesson: we need a collective backbone

Oh NOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!! 😩😭😫😢 I'm SO not ready to say #ByeBye99. Be forewarned @FOXTV-when networks dump shows I love, I'm known for holding grudges a long, L-O-N-G time. I'm still mad @CBS didn't renew #SquarePegs! 😡
