100% true that Russell Brand auditioned for the part of Super Hans in Peep Show. He didn't get it, for which we all owe @RealMattKing a huge debt of gratitude for being way better.

The United cycle is now at the demand for a glamorous tyrant - Conte - to show these players what real work looks like. That'll be followed in 18 months by a giddy interim spell by an earnest club legend - Johnny Evans - and then by an Ineos-coded ideologue with good hair - Howe.

I resigned from Anthropic today. I spent the last three years doing pretraining research at both OpenAI and Anthropic. Neither company is acting responsibly. They are racing straight to self-improving superintelligence and gambling with our lives. More thoughts below.

My parents raised me on soy milk in the 70s. They thought it was super healthy. I think that’s why I look like a Mexican woman. Not that there’s anything wrong with that. I make it work.

Nick Drake is one of my favourite people named after a type of bird theft. Others include Russell Crowe, Rob Fowler, Peregrin Took and Jack Sparrow.

Finally found my @ianbrown /Roses shot! This is one of the shots that means the most to me in my career and I've long thought it had been lost on a damaged hard drive, so I'm buzzing to have rediscovered it.

Bill Oddie, what a lovely bloke. He wrote us a letter when we started making The Young Ones, wishing us the very best, and warning us against interference from higher up. He didn’t know anyone in the cast personally. It just came out of the blue. Lovely thing to do.

If there is a tradition that needs to return in Tour de France is the one of "drinking raids", especially now with this global warming going on. 😅 I love this video, "even water" cracks me every time. Cheers! 🍻 #TDF2026

My mate’s dad found this travel agents advert from the 1970 World Cup. That would have been the summer of a lifetime.

“That is why Starmer attracts such visceral hostility. Not because he is secretly tyrannical or uniquely manipulative, but because he appears as the anthropomorphic embodiment of procedural Britain itself: the human face of the unread contract.”

I would say this is probably the greatest joke ever written for the sheer fact of how many times your Dad or Granddad has said this line when an ambulance or Police car goes by with its sirens on
