I'm hoping this period encourages us to find our voice and really let the powers that be know that we don't like what is going on. Unfortunately a lot of people aren't thinking about the country, they're blinded by political allegiance.
I told someone last night this is the first time in my life that I am not feeling proud to be a Trini. And I HATE that.

Is it that the experts don't want to discourage the teams from buying nonsense?? #BargainHunt

Very excited to be in conversation with these two great authors at the @bocaslitfest!
For @RichardCharan (The Village of One) and Debbie Jacob (Police Dogs of Trinidad and Tobago), personal memories and dedicated research come together in their books that chart both individual stories and bigger social patterns. #bocas2025 #alwayscominghome

Up to recently I asked @BstlyColdStoute if she's ever had a newspaper feature because she's clearly a cultural savant and the world needs to know. Glad @rhopico thought so too! Big up you Kimmy!
Kimmy Stoute-Robinson eats, sleeps and breathes culture. Well, probably not literally, but the range of her expertise would lead you to believe so. Read about her decades of experience in the creative & performing arts industry, and what culture means to her. (@BstlyColdStoute)

We are deeply saddened by the passing of the legendary Roy Ayers. A true innovator, Roy shaped and revitalized the musical landscape across generations. His sound became the backdrop to every era he graced, with Everybody Loves the Sunshine serving as an anthem for so many of us.

Good humans are still among us.
To the person who sold me their CIC ticket at cost price and flat-out refused their family member’s request to up the price for profit: may your roti always be warm, your champagne/rum chilled and your skin clear for all your days! 🥹🖤 #CarnivalSpirit

I don't think Colin Young is a very good auctioneer. He doesn't do enough to build excitement around the lots. #bargainhunt

Neil Young has issues and yes, he's wrong...
Opinion | Neil Young is wrong about Glastonbury Young says that the festival is under 'corporate control'. As a Glastonbury regular, @emilyrbakes says that's 'ridiculous' https://t.co/dAto8benMQ
