@thebowlerhatman Cannes, despite its few weeks of imported glamour, seems an unlikely destination for my childhood hero, although it’s true that the residents do wear warpaint and battle scars, albeit extremely expensive ones. Nice to have you a couple of bays away :-)

The stairs in my apartment block in Cannes look like something out of a Hitchcock film.

@SubRosaMagick Nincompoop, like ABBA, is enjoying a massive comeback.

Tony Blair announces a return to front line British politics as he is made Lord Blair and appointed Foreign Secretary and Deputy Prime Minister in a surprise late night announcement from Downing Street.

.@ryanair can’t afford ads, so we made one with AI.

No way the fall of Rome was this cringe

@jamiesont It goes way back. youtu.be/QI6N5GBoevI?is…

Who the fuck thinks it's 'Doggy dog World'???

Post a picture YOU took. Just a pic. No description

@zulu934 @DanielLMcAdams It’s actually High Valyrian. She’s trying to summon #Drogon, but he can’t land bc of the ballroom installation.

@DanielLMcAdams Thi;s is where she talks in tongues.

We must be the laughingstock of the world.

@SteinacherF @DalaiLama If those are the proposals proposed by the winner of the esteemed #FifaPeacePrize, the bombs are going to be dropped regardless, as they were before.

@DalaiLama @totallygone That‘s great. But can I drop a bomb on those who disagree with my proposals for peace?

MESSAGE I wholeheartedly endorse the powerful appeal for peace made by the Holy Father, Pope Leo, during his Palm Sunday Mass. His call for the laying down of arms and the renunciation of violence resonated profoundly with me, as it speaks to the very essence of what all major religions teach. Indeed, whether we look to Christianity, Buddhism, Islam, Hinduism, Judaism or any of the world's great spiritual traditions, the message is fundamentally the same: love, compassion, tolerance, and self-discipline. Violence finds no true home in any of these teachings. History has shown us time and again that violence only begets more violence and is never a lasting foundation for peace. An enduring resolution to conflict, including the ones we see in the Middle East or between Russia and Ukraine, must be rooted in dialogue, diplomacy and mutual respect — approached with the understanding that, at the deepest level, we are all brothers and sisters. I urge for and pray that the violence and conflicts may soon come to an end. DALAI LAMA 31 March 2026

Here it comes: Republicans are considering reductions in federal health spending to help pay for a budget bill containing as much as $200 billion to fund the Iran war and immigration enforcement, per Axios.

@warcarurumon @mrjeffu @AmbHideoSuzuki Excellent point. Perhaps I erred on the side of Clouseau because the age of ambassadorship as a cheerful caper has long yielded to shoulder-rubbing with the shadiest of characters; M. Suzuki’s role will involve much ignoring of elephants, if not mammoths, in the rheum.

@totallygone @mrjeffu @AmbHideoSuzuki I would have picked asterix if we're sticking to comics

Japan's Ambassador to France shared this Tintin-style photo of him preparing to head to Tokyo, where he will be part of the delegation welcoming President Macron. Macron will meet with Prime Minister Takaichi on the 31st.

What a fucking embarrassment. American troops are being sent into harm’s way in Iran and this fucking idiot is doing his double jerkoff dance while waving a sword, like a drunk uncle at a wedding. This is who has the nuclear codes. America is a parody.

@wmarybeard @dunkershelen Quite. Facepalm Sunday from the interns at Labour HQ.

@dunkershelen True. Good Friday would be weirder. But Palm Sunday still seems a bit odd to me. As if every religious festival could have “happy” plonked in front!

“Happy” palm Sunday is a weird bit of pr!

@LolaGomezC Sublime. Nice work!!

Photography always reminds you that it lives in microseconds. This was one: during Mass at Stade Louis II in Monaco March 28, 2026, Pope Leo XIV adjusted his vestment, looked my way, and for a split second, magic happened.
