Rachel REALLY bigging up The Tig (check out the wild voice intonation here, if you can stand it), she's crowing about it as if it's some hugely successful going concern, instead of a mediocre social media vlog on Instagram. Her words and fake passion are the same as when she started her last failed online jam and rabbit food project! She's selling herself rather than the company, using CEO language, when she only has shelf stacker experience. I'm definitely with Graham on this one...😂🤷🏼‍♀️

Best explanation I’ve heard about US interests in Venezuela today. P.S. She recorded this over 2 weeks ago.

He’s right about ID cards
ID cards are a threat to civil liberties, to our data security and risk people’s private info being handed to US tech giants for profit. They’re also a total waste of time and money when the government should be focused on the real priority: tackling the cost of living crisis.

Whatever you have going on that feels important please pause for this crucial Alaskan Update: It is Fat Bear Week here in Alaska which means your vote matters. We are a house divided. Floatato the floating fat bear has a lot of support but also the sassy single mom fat bear that all the other bears are afraid of is close to our hearts. Fat Bear Junior is also in full swing. Link in comments for voting. This delights children if you’re a teacher your students should be riveted by fat bear week. I, a 40 year old woman, am I deeply invested. FLOATATO

Fun fact! There is a Penguin book vending machine at Exeter St Davids station. Built 2023, it recalls a 1934 visit by a publisher (going home after an Agatha Christie meeting) who was inspired to set up @PenguinUKBooks right there. @GWRHelp staff tell me it sells several each day

On this day (Sept 16) in 1981, Postman Pat first aired. It was written by Kendal author John Cunliffe. The fictional valley of Greendale was based on nearby Long Sleddale. Here's the bridge at Long Sleddale which Postman Pat's van drove over at the start of each episode.

For those who don’t know, the Japanese Ambassador to the UK, Hiroshi Suzuki, @AmbJapanUK, is developing a quietly viral following for traveling the UK and saying nice things and taking Paddington Bear to Japan to show him around :) 🇯🇵🇬🇧
Deeply moved by the magnificent scenery of the Giant's Causeway. This unique natural landscape is breathtakingly beautiful. I'm so glad I came here!

I think most intelligent anglophones notice our double register, but his second insight here amazed me. "English is the most physical language. To 'loom over,' to 'laugh off,' to 'dream away,' to 'live down' something, 'live up' to something. These can't be said in Spanish."

Andrew Garfield talks to Elmo about missing his mother after she recently passed away. “When I miss her I remember it’s because she made me so happy, I can celebrate her & miss her at the same time”

Reminder that in 1981 Britain added a descant to the national anthem, turned it into the best national anthem in the world, and then just… forgot about the arrangement never to use it again
