It's been an awesome week, so much to see and hear - most of which we didn't have time for, what with our busy schedules and all. Don't worry, this is your catch-up place. Grab your brew and maybe some breakfast, settle in, and enjoy the links.
A closer look at the Omarosa tapes, just to get us all updated.
And the newspapers hit back. So does James with a little musical impression of Mueller. Is it true that you can get away with saying the worst things if you set them to music? Maybe so - listen to the words, and you tell me.
What have we got to look forward to? Reading-wise, I mean. The book preview....
SA's shame continues - the story of Bird Island, and Mark Minnie's recent apparent suicide.
Which made me remember this article about suicide, which made me think. Great writing, Kate Sherry.
Pieter-Dirk Uys talking about hate speech and hashtags at a recent conference. If you'd prefer the transcript - here it is, else the video is below. (It's not 48 minutes - the video feed ends before 9 mins is up, and then there's 39 minutes of black silence, thank you M&G.)
A visit to Liebermann's garden and discovering the natural source of his inspiration.
Colbert's tribute to Aretha Franklin is my favourite - I love this performance, also featuring Carole King and the Obamas and many more.
And we sign out with another great musical performance - Ariana Grande. Her Celine impression is the awesomest, and I loved the Broadway - maybe not quite as much as they did, but almost.
I told you this was awesome. Now go and have a great weekend, why don't you?
Last week's ten.
Some more.
