I made the Taskmaster house and studio in Lego form.

Task rooms can be removed from the house and put on the ‘screen’ in the studio.
Obviously @AlexHorne and @gdavies are there, but which @taskmaster contestants and tasks can you see? pic.twitter.com/4AaBHaV8Xu
Please record the awkward moment when you tell them you’ve spent most of your career campaigning to have people from Eastern Europe deported.😉 https://t.co/rfFn1hdXlu

I don’t usually have a lot of positive things to say about Margaret Thatcher.

But she would never have behaved like Johnson. And she’d have come down like a ton of bricks on any works drinks party.
If “vulnerable people are going to die,” is the government response to a pandemic, you already know their climate policy.

Boris Johnson on the phone. Thrilled that, of all times, the news about Prince Andrew’s failed court action has broken now.

Ahaha the BSL interpreter on BBC news just signed "work event" using sarcastic quotation marks ❤

Pretty interesting how many "self-care" practices are just normal recreational things that many people did semi-regularly until spending time on the Internet displaced them.
— Samuel D. James (@samueld_james) January 12, 2022
Very striking that @BorisJohnson speaks again and again of “mistakes made” & “mistakes we made” but he can’t bring himself to add the word “I”. Begs the question – is he apologising for his behaviour, that of his staff or just how things look?

OK, so I was curious, and I played Wordle. And I have a theory about why it's so successful. The design is ingenious in a very particular way

She turns the light off, closes the door and heads to the exit, going home for the weekend at last.

She checks her phone. And stops.
A guttural scream.
A door opens. “You all right?” someone says.
She nods. Barely. Then she turns, and Sue Gray trudges back to the office. https://t.co/wNSuTKtTuD

My wife has just observed that Boris Johnson and Chris Whitty have the exact same energy as Zapp Brannigan and Kif Kroker and I think it's the most astute piece of political analysis I've heard in years. pic.twitter.com/OLpX10t3Ea

Boris Johnson and the Downing Street parties, Prince Andrew, Novak Djokovic. These aren't separate stories. It's all one story: a privileged class who think they can get away with anything, suddenly finding out that they can't.
