    Here’s a video unveiling the UK cover of THE CASTLE! I’m being secretive about the twists and turns but the video includes tiny slivers of audio from my reporting. ‘Ridiculously compelling…vintage Ronson. Wise, timely and extremely funny’ - @louistheroux Preorder in bio!

    I worked with Matthew Perry nine years ago and got to know him a little. He was extremely thoughtful and generous, even letting us stay in his home, for no reason other than kindness. Anyway, when someone is that kind, you should let people know, hence this tweet.

    These reports about a rise in anxiety: I wonder if some other fellow long-term sufferers also feel weirdly calm. My theory is that we rehearse catastrophic what-if situations in our heads so often when a real crisis happens we're quite good at it.

    I'm going to tell you my Concorde story. Many years ago the UK radio presenter Chris Evans was supposed to go on a private plane to Minneapolis to meet Prince. They had a spare seat and asked me if I wanted it. I said, "YES I DO."

    I just told the best story that's ever been told on Twitter and people are complaining that I wrote the thread too slowly. Honestly!

    It's a weird prison that people like Piers Morgan and Katie Hopkins have trapped themselves in - fucked-up pantomime villains needing to be yelled at daily.

    I just heard Wiley wants to debate with the "top jewish man". Am I too late?

    "I take your question" is a great burn that I don't quite understand but will now adopt whenever anyone yells at me on Twitter. #MuellerHearing

    This pandemic is bringing out the best in the best people and the worst in the worst. Helpful, considerate people are being more so than ever, but impulsive, irresponsible people are too. It's like a wild amplification of our character traits.

    'Cancel culture' has become such a vague, catch-all, hodgepodge phrase, encompassing wildly different people and situations. It's not useful at all.

    This is Macaroni. She has a question. Wondering if because she had an early breakfast she could maybe also have an early dinner. 12/10 seems reasonable
