Welcoming two new members to the family today! Thanks to National Animal Welfare Trust Watford who were lovely to deal with😻

This has 'Love and Death' vibes, I'm v much IN

If people cried laughing as much as they use the cry-laughing emoji the world would be a happier place

I was once presenting for a BBC local radio station when the fire alarm went off, and we had to evacuate. Brilliantly, the song playing at the time was, "When The Going Gets Tough, The Tough Get Going"

Incredible that we'll soon have data servers in space, yet nobody can apparently put the app to buy railway station car parking in the same app where you can check train status and buy train tickets

🤔 I wonder how @Metallica feel about 'Enter Sandman' being used in Hegseth's videos again... ... given that just last year they forced the Pentagon to pull a video promoting its drone programme using the same song?

@ToddCoxeter 😆 and who would that be for specifically, and why?

For my Times Radio show tonight... as it's World Book Day: what book recommendation would you suggest for our world leaders?

@IainDale @BBCSteveR Ooh will be mainlining this into my veins!

New episode of the IAIN DALE ALL TALK podcast 356. Steve Rosenberg I talk to BBC Russia editor @BBCSteveR about starting out in journalism & coming face to face with Vladimir Putin, his love of the BBC... andthe Eurovision Song Contest. Listen podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcast/356…

Were it not for the source would assume this was AI

This is not Winston Churchill that we're dealing with here... Apologies to Times Radio listeners but you are stuck with me covering this week. Join me each weeknight at 10pm. X

No matter how many times I see it, I will never get used to old men in the locker room hairdrying their genitals

Have started channneling Davina whenever my wife calls the car and my kids are in the back. YOU ARE LIVE ON SPEAKERPHONE, please do not swear

We are busting Scottish nursery rhymes WIDE OPEN

Every time Spotify email me a Get Tickets link to a gig that's been sold out for months I think their technology is failing, surely the opposite of their intention

@jamiesont Will be investigating

Huge (very late) recommend for the Plurabis podcast. Not a recap of episodes, but a deep dive into making the show. If you want a whole heap of TV writing, directing & production info it is a treasure trove of knowledge. Plus Vince & his people are great to spend time with.

This is Robbie. He spent six hours trapped in the rubble after a devastating earthquake. Unable to feel his legs, unsure he would emerge alive. 🧵

ChatGPT confidently bullshitting incorrect answers gives strong 'public schoolboy at Oxbridge interview' vibes
