So Georgina Fuller, who contributed the sob story about Al, Alexandra, Ali, Harry and Barry Moy having to cut down to four from five holidays a year to the Telegraph, was duped by a PR working for financial planning firm Saltus?

After earning five Tony Award nominations — including best actor for George Clooney, best costume design, best lighting design and others — Good Night, and Good Luck on Broadway is ending its run this weekend. However, its penultimate performance is being televised live on Saturday, June 7.

Since Kemi Badenoch has announced a review of our membership of the European Convention on Human Rights, it's time to share this. What have human rights ever done for us? youtu.be/ptfmAY6M6aA?...

So, I think it's time I begin, in detailed specifics, talking about the mess that is Unbound / Boundless as a book publisher, in essence stealing most of a years royalties from me and many other authors, as a result of poor financial decisions, and legal BS. Please read and share this thread.

What a finale #DoctorWho 😍😮😭

Rewatched the Early Edition pilot and some Due South the other day. I need to find some more comfort shows with a sprinkling of fantasy in them.

Thought I might be taken out the pools for compulsory redundancy at work. Nope. Others who do an identical job to me but have a posher job title (because they're new and it was rejigged to get more applications) have been. 😑

Back on campus today.

I really need Broadway to get on the livestream train like the National Theatre has.

Day off to relax. Unfortunately, Dad has managed to agree to his guttering to be redone by a door stepper same day. No time to check the company out. Flashbacks to when he was scammed. Elderly parents, they won't be told.

This whole thread from Zoë hits the nail on the head re Britta Curl and the PWHL.

53-year-old white British man from Liverpool area arrested after car hit crowd of people at Liverpool FC parade, police say

It is so disrespectful to share videos of what might be a tragedy, please don’t.

Will affect Beeston Rylands. The CT4N 18 route is the only one that serves the area. www.nottinghampost.com/news/notting...

The color of the sky on my world

Peter David was an incredible writer of comics, and, I would say, in the top three best ever Star Trek novelists. Spidey 2099, Hulk, Captain Marvel, X-Factor, Young Justice, New Frontier, Imzadi, Q-Squared, I could list his accomplishments all night. May his memory be a blessing

Oh no. Peter David has passed away. I knew of him via his #StarTrek books. comicbookclublive.com/2025/05/25/p... Rest in Peace.

The dodgy looking, "We earn £345k, but soaring private school fees mean we can’t afford to go on five holidays" article has been taken down by the Telegraph. Will there be an apology for such poor editorial standards?

Caught up with a friend I have spoken to in ages. Feel a bit better now. I'm lucky to have people like that in my life.

It's not Spotify, it's fairer to artists and has better sound quality. So check it out.

Groundbreaking music executive Dave Shapiro has died in a San Diego plane crash. He was 42. The music agency Sound Talent Group confirmed Shapiro died in the crash.

I will not swear in a work email. I will not swear in a work email. I will not... 🤬🤬🤬

It's that time of year again, when the Co(l)laboratory programme, facilitated by the University of Nottingham and Nottingham Trent, is seeking new research and PhD proposals from local organisations... leftlion.co.uk/features/202...

I don’t know why this is so hard to understand

These vigilantes are a bigger threat to cis women than trans people ever were. Awful people who now feel empowered to be even more obnoxious.

The unbelievable condescension we’re already seeing today towards working class people- suggesting they don’t travel to Europe or their kids might not want to go to university and study in Europe- is quite something to behold.

Brexit was a referendum on whether the UK should leave the European Union. The UK has left the European Union. Referendum fulfilled. If the people bleating about "Brexit Betrayal" wanted the Referendum to enshrine their pet policy preferences, they should have included them in the question.

Walked along the Beeston canal and meet the newest residents.

I just want to know why this has opened in the garden of a church with openly queerphobic theology. The vicar (far left) is actively opposed to LGBT rights, to the extent that she's instrumental in trying to organise special Bishops for churches that don't want anything to do with LGBT equality.

Im just a shark 🦈

Good Night, and Good Luck livestream will start around midnight UK time but I'm very tempted. June 7th including on CNN International #theatresky

OK, this is wild. In September 2023, geophysicists across the world started monitoring a very odd signal coming from the ground under them. It was picked up in the Arctic. And Antarctica. It was detected everywhere, every 90 seconds, as regular as a metronome, for *nine days*. What the HELL? 1/

More #MarkMaking think I used a metal scourer from the kitchen and a large unfolded paper clip #painting in #sketchbook #birds #ibis maybe?

It’s not finished yet, but here’s a little sneak peek at the latest piece in the Moonlit March series! #opossumart #animalart #oilpainting #oilpaintingprocess

I’m in. Who’s with me?
