this is a bit pathetic actually - and explains why the performances of the Hamlet speeches were so dire
The New Yorker@NewYorker
On an episode of #NewYorkerRadio earlier this year, the “Hamnet” writer and director Chloé Zhao recalled what Paul Mescal told her on set about understanding Shakespeare—and how it impacted the way the Oscar-nominated film came together. Listen here: newyorkermag.visitlink.me/nzZHwP

@JackPittBrooke if only there was a way that 'big' teams could avoid that situation🤔

So cool to have a 144-game League Phase and then an eight-team punishment round so that we can get to see... Manchester City play Real Madrid again.

A mouse in search of a metaphor?

Did anyone see the mouse running under the radiator when @peston was interviewing Kemi Badenoch?!

Politics feels angrier, harsher and more tribal than it used to...but how much of the blame can be laid at the door of social media?
I spoke to @rafaelbehr about how our ancient group instincts collide with 'god-like' digital technology to distort what we see, reward outrage, and erode trust in democratic institutions.
Drawing on datasets of millions of social media posts, I discuss how a tiny minority can dominate the online political conversation and platforms can make people seem more extreme, and silence the moderate voices.
I also discuss what can be done about it; from redesigning incentives and rebuilding solidarity across group lines; to the small, practical choices you can make to resist the pull of performative moral outrage.

This is the weapon-grade trolling I've missed during my absence from Twitter.
Notts Forest Review@C304TAG
Mikel Arteta has taken a rough diamond in Eberechi Eze and turned him into a superstar. Occasional glimpses of brilliance at Crystal Palace have been turned into consistency at Arsenal, and the man is now a match winner under Arteta. Arsenal’s talent ID is second to none. #afc

@MenInBlazers Why can't Arteta get his highly paid team of stars to play like this? And don't give me 'more time on the ball at this level.'

The most remarkable goal you’ll see scored by someone born after the iPhone 4 was released 😅

Presumably Matthew is also calling for more viewpoint diversity at the great cultural institution known as The Times
Matthew Syed@matthewsyed
The BBC is a HUGE asset to the UK. Yes, it would benefit from more viewpoint diversity (like every other cultural institution) but I utterly disagree with those who wish to destroy it. Remember the words of the great Joni Mitchell: “You Don't Know What You Got Till It's Gone”

@BenMFreeman This behaviour is not the pride of the Jewish community, Ben. To boo at such a solemn occasion, just because you disagree with someone is not at all respectful.
English
The Jews who booed David Lammy at the vigil in Manchester are the pride of the British Jewish community.
Thank you for speaking with clarity and pride, and for not accepting scraps.

@RestIsPolitics @campbellclaret @RoryStewartUK Following Trump’s victory, I think it’s really worth listening to this 2022 podcast by Rafael Behr.

Yes it was hateful, but you really don't need to smear the whole of the BBC and Glastonberry because of it.
Not least because you're amplifying and spreading the thing you say you detest. Let's rejoice in some great moments like Robert Smith playing Just Like Heaven with Olivia.
