[Thread] The Andor Season 2 (April 22) fest I had made a huge production thread about Andor on Twitter, several hundred posts over several years. Because the people who make Andor (and showrunner Tony Gulroy in particular) often have interesting things to say. So I'm picking up the thread here. 🤟

#Dragonfire is a weird story, in that it has all the pieces of a narrative, as well as interesting characters, but it fails to coalesce into tale. It more… congeals on screen #DoctorWho

“The economic goal of tariffs can be to raise revenue or it can be to shrink imports by increasing domestic production – but it cannot be both.” Key point in this excellent FT Big Read. www.ft.com/content/ed99...

Being deeply uncool in the 90s (90s Whovian here - not kidding, DEEPLY) couldn't even kill off Doctor Who entirely, I promise you, certain sections of the audience who are inexplicably still watching (even though "I can't stand it"), can survive The Doctor being played by a fabulous queer black man.

Manchester Mill deserves enormous credit for pursuing this story, not least because of the legal threats from Lord. The Arts Council wants more than £400,000 back - money we'll likely never see again. manchestermill.co.uk/breaking-sac...

Improving parental leave is one thing that could result in both economic growth and people feeling "better off", as in, their lives feel fairer, more grounded, more equal. It also gives off an impression that Labour understands the everyday stressors of working people. Seems a no-brainer to me

Hey, anyone in the White House Press Corps ... I'll give you $20 if you ask anyone in the Trump administration this question during a press conference (and vigorously follow up until you get an answer): Why do men have nipples?

Fact-checking wasn’t “biased” against conservatives. Conservatives just shared more false content. If there’s a sportsball game and one team fouls four times as much, it’s not “biased” for the ref to call four times as many fouls against that team.
