@whippletom I feel very much the same way. Although also, sometimes, like this https://t.co/rTIXLuZJaR

HOW TO RULE THE WORLD is out Tuesday.

I spoke with @willpavia for @thetimes about my debut book and what it's been like to both go to and investigate "this university in which students are a monetisable product."

Link in the next tweet!

I will read any article written on men and reading, but in particular this is a good intro into bookish social media and certain men are changing things for the better. https://t.co/FWFtbTyKWD

The Amazing Generation comes out in the UK Jan 8.

Here's a great article telling the origin story of the book, by @willpavia at @thetimes

A generous invitation from a Sunday night football team, The Flamingos, offering the next mayor @ZohranKMamdani a spot in the back line. We play round the corner from the Gracie Mansion

@everturningtide @thetimes Though I do think it's fair and proper to describe what someone looks like now, when you meet them, how they come across etc, particularly in a piece that is partly about fighting ageing and trying to return to the way you sounded at 25

[Will Pavia @willpavia]

@everturningtide @thetimes Thanks Jayne. I hope I can age shame equally, though I only did it here in the service of the kind of joke that may only funny with men who are rock and roll stars and hold a semi-divine status among their fans

[Will Pavia @willpavia]

@JonEForeman @StephenKing I don't think I say anywhere in the piece that this is the first adaption of The Running Man. I knew about the Arnie version. I must admit though that I have heard from a few of its fans since the piece, asking why I didn't mention it

Harper Lee's '50s short stories, published tomorrow, are wonderful. There's one about attempting to sweet talk her way out of parking ticket by quoting Victorian literature. Sadly, the NYPD officer is unmoved

A good Cindy Adams gag, at the bottom of her column today

The cameras roll, the back of a lorry opens and out comes a swirl of dry ice and a silver DeLorean.

“And this guy jumps out and he goes, ‘MARTY!’ ” says Michael J Fox. “I’m, like, ‘Holy shit!’"

It was wonderful to chat with him

I talk to @willpavia in @thetimes about the UN, #peacekeeping, #WorldWarIII and why people don't think enough about the Universal Postal Union @UPU_UN.

I spent the day outside Bruce Springsteen's old bungalow, hoping to spot the Boss returning, as he apparently does each year, to solemnly contemplate the place where it all began. It was just me and about fifty other people

Excellent by @willpavia

What I like is that there is a kind of logic behind it all, so it's possible to get the answers in the quiz.
