I wasn’t expecting #Amandaland to make me cry 😂 The last episode was superb ❤️

Has Trump just realised his bizarre move on tariffs was so unpopular with ordinary Americans and the markets alike, that he’s just backtracked and these postponements with Canada and Mexico are a convenient way for him to do so?

I'm not an ideologue on this issue - but can someone explain to me why it makes sense that our water companies are privatised?! Surely this is just a vehicle for a few people to get very rich while saddling a public service with debt?

For next Christmas I would like a Feathers McGraw origin story.

Wallace and Gromit was absolutely FANTASTIC. Gromit and Feathers for BAFTAs! And of course Feathers is a traitor!

I’m watching Bake Off in Argentina… it’s interesting. They’re just making a Sachertorte for the Showstopper. And they all have to make it the same way?! So odd…

Makes total sense. A Trump presidency will give them all the fodder they need, which will allow them the format to settle down and embed further. I think it’s great! Different to UK, but good on its own terms.
The US version of HIGNFY has been renewed for a second season.

It is clearly different than the UK version, but it holds up well.

When are UK’s arts institutions going to move over? Do they even need to?

FWIW, I think X/Bluesky much better for individual reaction, discussion and news announcements than organisations weirdly adopting personas imho.
This is really getting quite remarkable

• BlueSky user numbers have doubled in the past week and now total 3.5 million across US & UK 🚀

• Number of people deleting their X/Twitter account remains way up

And the next chart is particularly notable...

It’s me! On a horse! For the first time! Trotting through water! And I didn’t die! I loved today - horseback riding through Patagonia. Bliss! Honestly one of the best things I’ve ever done in my life.

Has anyone done a good UK Arts scene starter pack? (Both for individuals and for institutions)

Things I’m learning about Argentina:

- they love meat
- they really want you to know Las Malvinas are their’s
- they give good tree
- they give good street lights
- glaciers > Milton Keynes Snowdome

Not gonna do a cringe ‘hello’ post, instead I’m just gonna post a picture of a glacier we saw today. If you’re coming here for regular glacier content, you might be disappointed. #glacier
