My book recommendation from this year is @tsu_jing's Kingdom of Characters. It relays China's last 150 yrs or so through the lens of various struggles to remake alphabetic writing technologies, from typewriters & telegraphs to indexes & AI. It's much better than I make it sound.

The honour of presenting @BBCNewsnight falls to me tonight. I have worked on the programme for 32 years, around the world, risking my life many times for its journalism. You can well imagine my feelings at cuts to our staff and budget of more than 50% https://t.co/zyQTwFKIiI

RIP to the incredible Piper Laurie. 💔

From the Golden Age of Hollywood to Carrie, Return to Oz to the formidable Catherine Martell in Twin Peaks, Piper Laurie was powerful, intriguing and beguiling…what a huge loss. Rest in Peace you compete legend 💔 #piperlaurie #twinpeaks

This how I feel sometimes when I see people running! But unlike this horse, I resist the instinct. 😂

Possibly the scariest piece of TV ever created:

John Noakes climbing Nelson's column in Trafalgar Square, in flares, with no harness.

It just gets worse and worse.

Feeling sentimental lately; there must be something in the air. Or maybe it’s because it’s been 32 years since the first half of the #TwinPeaks concluded. Time flies when you’re locked in a strange room with your doppelgänger. Anyway, don’t be a stranger. 🦉☕
