Impressed by the innovation coming out of the @NYTGames team. In the last couple of weeks they’ve debuted the @OnlyConnectQuiz wall round and (checks notes) the numbers round from Countdown.

The #Eurovision top 10 result has been leaked early.....

[Dafyd Jones @dafyd]

Much as I appreciate Peacock streaming #Eurovision for us in the US, Johnny Weir is adding absolutely nothing to the broadcast. Just let us watch! (Rant over)

[Dafyd Jones @dafyd]

A generation of British children (and @BeltonHouseNT) would surely disagree with this, @NYTGames.

[Dafyd Jones @dafyd]

Why did I only just discover that @Target is selling @marksandspencer Christmas goodies? This changes EVERYTHING.

This didn't age well.

German TV news on what is happening in British politics is amazing. No need to understand German, watch to the end https://t.co/RFPnD1iOFF

My antipathy towards bagpipes is well documented. But this, this is beautiful.

[The Royal Family @RoyalFamily]

As The Queen's Committal Service comes to a close, Her Majesty's Piper plays a lament.

perhaps matt berry's greatest line delivery yet

[Dafyd Jones @dafyd]

Yes, yes, Eurotrash. But does anyone remember “Channel Hopping”, the Channel 4 Schools French programme presented by De Caunes and Eddie Izzard? *That* I think I may have invented in a fever dream.

[Iceland Foods ❄️ @IcelandFoods]

Remember when you had @HeinzUK Baked Beans with hash browns and thought "Why not put the baked beans IN the hash browns"?

Well, coming in September...!

[Dafyd Jones @dafyd]

“Oh yes it is!”

[Dafyd Jones @dafyd]

Your turn now, America.

[lifebloodau @lifebloodau]

Lived in the UK? You’re A-OK to donate! We’re thrilled (proper chuffed, even) to announce that people who lived in the UK between 1980 and 1996 for over 6 months can now give blood in Australia.

You can never ban abortion, you can only ban safe abortions. Read that again.

@alistaircoleman For the absolute deal of the century, don’t miss your opportunity to pay £5 for the privilege of throwing your loved on out of the car curbside at Departures. Don’t turn off the engine; that costs more.

[chloë @MorozkosWitch]

This about sums up the UKs reaction to #Eurovision

[Dafyd Jones @dafyd]

@robinince The same structures and patterns appear over and over in nature. Do you, Brian Cox, expect to see new patterns, or variations on the same patterns, as our understanding of the universe increases?

[Dafyd Jones @dafyd]

More news should come in anagram form.

[Christopher Miller @chrizmillr]

Some news…

[taber @cakesandcourage]

I think Maus intimidates some Americans because it declines to offer a way out of the evil, never touches a Christian redemption for sin, and most of all, offers no peace in the crushing weight of death or the unlikely absence of it. you're not lucky to live or saved to die.

[Olivia Nuzzi @Olivianuzzi]

Weeks ago I saw that globetrotting @NinaStrochlic was in Bowling Green, Kentucky and cluelessly asked her what the fuck she could possibly be doing there. The answer turned out to be the most fascinating story I’ve read all year. https://t.co/0IUOxrQhrD
