Happy 100th birthday to the stylish Sir David Attenborough

I’m off to see @aof_official in #Toronto in Aug. The ~10th time I’ve seen them. I want to get my #alexisonfire #tattoo - any good shops in the city, so I can get it done before the show? @GeorgePettit @wade_macneil @Ratbeard @cityandcolour #theonlybandever @dinealonemusic

Never stop saying "dozen" and "half dozen". Never stop using the word you read in an old novella. Never stop using your regional jargon. Don't succumb to an internationalized English stripped of its whimsy and romanticism in the name of streamlining global commerce.

WHAT A TACKLE 🤯

Forget Dune 3. Forget The Odyssey. Coyote vs. ACME is the most important movie for you to see in a movie theater this year simply because David Zaslav tried to take it from you. Show the CEOs good movies of ALL shapes and sizes are worth fighting for.

Dear @Vans - why is this shirt not available for GrownUps? We love dinosaurs too.

@thepaulwilliams @RugbyPass The reason we went to drop out was reducing the scrum strain on players. Is that right? How about we offer an attacking line out on the 5m to the attacking team, on the side of the field where the ball was held up?

Do we need to change the laws around the try line? Has it almost become an unofficial setpiece? My thoughts on tryline defence, and attack, for @RugbyPass rugbypass.com/plus/are-law-t…

Now the 2026 Six Nations has finished, it’s time to look back at try of the tournament. Here’s to you, Rhys Carré. 🍻🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿

@moi_pseudo @thepaulwilliams I had one pass once that was maybe the best pass ever made but was never seen. Not unlike the song Tribute by Tenacious D. It was the best pass in the world, you gotta believe me, I wish you were there.

@thepaulwilliams Well you are both wrong because it would have been Fourie du Preez if it wasn’t Stephen Larkham

Classic rugby Twitter 😁 Casual tweet - "I think Aaron Smith is the best passer I've seen". Reply - "Well you clearly didn't see Jimmy McPassface. Who played in 1927, 50 years before you were born and long before TV and video cameras were publicly available? I thought not" 😁

Italy beat England for the first time in their history. Scotland put 50 on the best French team we've ever seen. Rhys Carré is the fastest man alive. The Six Nations is absolutely class.

This #Wales team would have beaten England. #IREvWAL #6Nations2026 #rugby

Do Americans understand how unhinged this is?

Lee, you hack, start/stop systems were invented by Toyota in 1974 and adopted by European automakers in the 2000s. They reduce fuel consumption by 5-8% and cut idle emissions by 100%. They restart in under 400 milliseconds… faster than your foot moves from brake to gas. Your car doesn't 'die.' The engine decouples from the drivetrain via a reinforced starter motor rated for 500,000+ cycles. This isn't Obama. It's thermodynamics. An engine burning fuel at zero mph does zero useful work. That's not politics. That's the first law. You're the EPA administrator and you don't understand combustion efficiency. Terrifying.

That Bunny was AMAZING. Elmo thinks he should be called Good Bunny! Elmo loves you, Mr. Good Bunny! ❤️🎶🐰

Goosebumps! People often ask, is Shakespeare still relevant? Here is a great example, from the Steven Colbert Show, in which Sir Ian McKellen delivers an extraordinary speech. Shakespeare’s words are timeless, urgent and important. #Shakespeare #ianmckellen #stevencolbert

@TickPick So very easy. @EnglandRugby @JonnyWilkinson

Hang it in the Louvre, but it's a sports photo

@willgkelleher @Harlequins @LaurieDalrymple @TimesSport Am I right in hearing this clip that they are currently recruiting a head coach? Hence the ‘we need to get this one right?’ - which I must assume at that point, there’s already a list, if not a short list?

What is happening at @Harlequins? All stems from churn of coaches, according to their CEO @LaurieDalrymple ❌ John Kingston ❌ Paul Gustard ❌ Tabai Matson ❌ Billy Millard ❌ Danny Wilson Next hire vital to reviving the club @TimesSport Ruck out now podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcast/the…

@RealSkipBayless (4/4) which became American Football (an evolution of Association Football or Soccer, which is a foot/kicking based game). As such, kicking points is a key part of the sport, the history, and the evolution of the sport.

@RealSkipBayless (3/?) it was worth zero points, the only points were the conversion (the point(s) after / PAT). Hence why it was called a ‘try’. A ‘try’ to kick at the posts to get some points. Now in the 1800s rugby made its way to the United States who further edited the rules…

WHY DO WE LET NON-FOOTBALL PLAYERS DECIDE GAMES BY TRYING TO KICK THE BALL BETWEEN TWO POLES???
