"Stories are what make us human. We tell stories, we listen to stories, we live inside stories. Perhaps our souls are nothing but tiny, decorative, multi-dimensional blankets we pull over our shivering brains, woven from delicate threads of narrative."
God love Tom Lewis.

I may have accidentally met Russell Brand once or seventeen times where I inadvertently referred to Brand as a political colossus & mankind's preeminent thinker as he guest edited my magazine, but this sycophantic praise was my way of expressing how much I utterly detested him .
Imagine getting a payment so dodgy a group of bankers thought this may be laundered money:

This site needs to stop normalising Tommy Robinson like he's for liberal thought. He's really not. He's for pro-white thought. There's a very very big difference.
Controversial opinion:
I love Fallout, but Fallout Season 2 was pointless. Could have made the whole thing 2 episodes.
Beautiful, but meandering, too many characters and deeply unsatisfying.

Or, campaign for a more reasonable transport system whereby trains were more affordable than flights. Just a thought.
God I’m bored of the performative environmental bollocks we adhere to in the TV industry. Poorly paid staff having 10 hour train journeys which cost twice what a plane would, because @WeAreALBERT says that’s what must happen, it’s just absurd.
The @BBCr4today team interviewing vulnerable people in camps in Northern France is just whipping up racism and not pointing out the insanity of people running from conflicts having to apply for asylum with IDs and passports. This is sick. Sick. #r4today

The last speaker complaining of the president being a victim of an assassination attempt conveniently ignores that it was a registered republican then blames the "left" for lecturing republicans. It's the Milosevic playbook: play victim and stoke division #r4today
We out here openly advocating for the removal of Human Rights on the Today programme as if this is a normal position to hold? Which human right don't you agree with Mr Rifkind? Also, "BOAT PEOPLE"?? Christ. #r4today
At this point I don't really understand Trump nor Putin nor Musk's motivations: They are already richer then they could ever be in a million lifetimes, why in God's name is the threat of war going to be a good thing?

Been a @Harlequins fan all my life, but this past year I've tried to:
1. Buy a Quins Hoodie/Shirt for my nephew in 5 different stores and failed. Then ordered online, and still order not fulfilled.
2. Buy 6 tickets to the big game and failed at the last moment.
Sort. It. Out.
Special shout out to @CastoreEngland who have not only not attempted to fill the order for my nephews shirt, but also now can't handle a ticket purchase. This is honestly just terrible customer service and @RFU should really consider who they outsource their fan engagement with.
Yeah this place is cooked, now over on BSky:

There is an anti slavery symposium taking place today @RiversideLondon with @WagingPeaceUK and @STOPTHETRAFFIK ahead of a march on Saturday (#HandsOffSudan). I'm glad that this play exists and this cast exists in such a mad mad world:
