Me after watching the latest Doctor Who Season Finale:

“What? Who? Why? How? When? Where? I’m so f*cking confused! So what now?”*

*Actually, I have a zillion questions, but I’m too tired to write them all so just thought I’d express the general sentiment that sums up my thoughts about everything. Seems to be a common fan reaction.

I will say that Ncuti Gatwa is my new favorite Doctor and I’m really sorry to see him go so quickly.

Ahead of her appearance on the red carpet for the closing of the SXSW festival in London, Zawe Ashton has a very special announcement to make, shared exclusively with British Vogue: she and her husband Tom Hiddleston are expecting their second child.

Given the momentous nature of the news, choosing the right look for the occasion was paramount. To reveal her growing baby bump, the glowing British actor will take to the red carpet in a resplendent, sleeveless sky-blue silk crepe gown with tumbling frill details, worn beneath a svelte, puddling cape in matching fabric.

Designed by Emilia Wickstead, the look’s poignancy derives not only from the significance of the occasion, but also from the fact that Ashton and the designer are longstanding collaborators and friends. “We met years ago at the British Fashion Awards when she dressed me and we attended together,” Ashton reminisces. “We had the most fabulous night and instantly felt like kindred spirits. We aligned so much on fashion and womanhood, and I’ve always loved her designs. They embody a seamless blend of classic and contemporary, and she’s also just an incredible craftsperson. You feel the level of detail that goes into every piece when you wear them.”

“Dressing Zawe is always a joy, but this moment feels especially meaningful and full circle,” Wickstead says. “Zawe wore a soft pink gown from us during her last pregnancy - quietly glowing, with a little secret only she knew. Now, to celebrate her second in this beautiful blue from our Pre-Fall collection, and to share it with the world, feels like a sweet continuation of that story. I’m so honoured to be part of it. Zawe is also such a vibrant, clever and special friend and muse of the brand – she’s been wearing Emilia Wickstead for years and I love being part of her journey.”

“I feel really lucky to be working with someone that I know and who’s been such a champion of me at this sensitive red-carpet dressing moment,” Zawe shares, noting that Wickstead’s team has thoughtfully customised the look for the special moment. “I feel like I’ll be very held on an evening where, as an expectant mother, you can feel a little bit exposed,” she says. Despite this, Ashton eagerly awaits the opportunity to proudly share her news with the world. “I think that every time you step onto a red carpet, there’s a really unique opportunity to express your authentic self, your individuality, your creativity, and celebrate where you are at in that moment,” she adds. “I’m really grateful to Emilia and her team, and can’t wait to reveal this look!”

Below, Ashton offers Vogue an exclusive look into her suite at The Dorchester, where she got ready ahead of the red carpet reveal.

Look, all you science-types classifying “bugs” with your “science names”. Just stop it. The truth is out there. Those are fairies and you know it.

Jeweled flower mantis? That’s a fairy.

Lace bug? Nice try, government. FAIRY.

Satin moth? FUCK YOU. FAIRY.

Martin O’Malley, the former commissioner of the Social Security Administration (SSA), said Monday the recent cuts made by tech billionaire Elon Musk's Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) at the agency could result in the "collapse" of the Social Security system "within the next 30 to 90 days."

CNN — 

The Elon Musk-led Department of Government Efficiency wants to charge at least one federal agency millions of dollars for its work.

The Office of Personnel Management was asked to pay for 20 full-time positions in Musk’s department for work between January 20 and July 4, 2026, according to the draft agreement obtained by CNN sent from the executive office of the president to OPM leadership for review. The total bill could end up topping $4 million.

DOGE’s work would include modernizing the agency’s systems, according to the draft agreement. It says OPM “has immediate and critical need for rapid and thorough IT modernization of the sort that the agency is not equipped to handle on its own.” The agency, under the draft agreement’s terms, is required to provide DOGE access to its data and systems, as well as “operational and technical support.”
