Imagine if you met someone irl who kept talking like people do on here, throwing under the bus, kept the receipts, lives rent-free etc, you'd quite rightly punch them in the face

You don't get this level of excitement in my local Tesco.
Shoppers at the Branson Walmart were stunned after a black bear wandered inside, picked up a can of bear spray, and accidentally sprayed it down an aisle before walking back out through the front doors. Several people were treated for coughing and irritation, and the bear was safely guided away.

I love that readers are seeking out the paintings I wrote into the Two Roberts. It gives me joy! This video is a lovely review and includes a spontaneous field trip to the National Gallery to see some Sunflowers....the very ones Bobby and Robert fall in love with www.youtube.com/watch?v=_HQ8...

I finished reading Art of the Lie this morning. I am stunned, as I was repeatedly throughout the book. Completely drained. No shocked gasps left in me. Thank you-an amazing book. I’m sure I’ll recover soon.

I’ve been looking forward to reading @laurasrobinson.bsky.social’s The Art of a Lie and the twists and turns don’t stop; in fact, they just come hurtling at you like being mown down by a horse drawn carriage running pell mell.

Astonishing story and research so far!

A must read🍍

V late to this (it’s a weekend, family stuff, etc) but..I agree with Ben. Both Katie Lam’s interview about deporting people with legal status (and the way STimes treated it) & the Christian Calgie business are disturbing egs of forgetting that ‘normal on X these days’ is very much not normal
Apropos of nothing, I really do think UK journalists and politicians need some reminding that mass deportation of LEGAL immigrants, particularly those with permanent status, is far more extreme than even Trump's America and would basically place Britain completely on its own among democracies.

The brighter side of social media. And yes, it's hard to believe, but that was five years ago.

This deserves *way* more attention than it’s getting

I love this story both for itself and for the idea that at some point Dustin Hoffman must have heard it and felt a way about it.
my favorite robert redford story is that mike nichols considered him for dustin hoffman's part in THE GRADUATE. during their conversation nichols asked redford something like, "have you ever struck out with a girl?" and redford's response was basically, "i don't understand the question"

I had the joy of acquiring this book as a publisher and did the first bunch of edits. It's unbelievably fun, the absolutely best of historical fiction while being about as accessible as it gets. Just go and buy it! Also Tony is the nicest man in the world.
My lovely dad’s book, THE HOUSE OF WOLF, is out today. Buy it, it’s brilliant and enormous fun 💙🐺

I don't really care that they refused to mourn left-wing and liberal figures when they died, I'm not taking my moral cues from them, that's the whole point

ENRAGED by the newfound knowledge that The Personal History of David Copperfield (2019) has an average rating of 6.4/10 on IMDb, who are the people who disliked it, were they all born without a soul, or capacity for joy
