‘We had never read anything quite like it. It is, in many ways, a dark book but it is a joy to read’

We're delighted to announce Flesh by David Szalay as the winner of the #BookerPrize2025.

was just looking at metrics for social media shares of a paper and jumpscared the hell out of myself seeing my own account there

happy spooky month everyone. I suddenly had the urge to draw #valvert

Somehow made this moment even hornier than before.

Champions of the Just. Every time

Well, Varric lovers, what are you waiting for? 😉

My mum stopped a woman in the shop today to tell her she loved her Moomin t-shirt. She then showed the woman her Moomin wallet and keyrings. And then the woman excitedly showed her she was also wearing Moomin socks 🤍🤍

#widofjord maybe ill put some critrole stuff up here too?

Also learned today - it's a lot harder than it looks to dig up concrete

Think i've discovered the opposite of how customer service makes your voice go higher. Spent a few hours working construction today and by the end my voice was an octave lower than it was at the start

when i feel behind and think, "i should have done this years ago" i try to remember that i couldn't have done it earlier; i needed everything that came before

Did a spotify blend with my brother in law and it added tom lehrer's masochism tango

That's fantastic!!! I am so so glad for you! 🤍 It's such a despicable system - you must be so relieved about the tribunal

modern au joplittle for a friend

Met her mum for the first time. And after I left received a 'my mum loved you btw' message from my friend. Heck yeah! 🎉

Daytrip to York to see my friend in a show 🤍

I'm not sure I even believe that lobster macaroni cheese is a real thing anyway 😅

Hmmm surprised me, I thought lower class for sure.

Although I think what this actually shows is that I don't eat shellfish

This looks great!!! (And you are on a ROLL atm 🎉🤍)

Love it!!!!

I went bouldering for the first time on Monday and it's only today I've been able to move my arms again. Christ it's harder than it looks (fun though)

I almost started Discovery a while back for that exact reason 🙈

I had set yesterday and today aside so I could focus on Doing Art for the first time in forever. So far, there has been no art. Instead, I restarted bg3 and started watching Critical Role 🤷‍♀️

Oh absolutely! I saw him a few years back playing in Manchester cathedral and god I still haven't fully recovered

Going swimming can be tricky if you own a dog bred for rescuing people at sea

Friend was too busy to talk earlier when I wanted to vent - so I joked that I'd just try oversharing on here instead. Expect damn I really am not built for oversharing on the Internet. I try but mentioning buying a new book is about as personal as I get

My sister is so humbling. She just saw me in a t-shirt with pink stripes on it and declared I looked like bagpuss

Ahhh that's fantastic!!! Congratulations!! 🤍🤍🤍

back on my PhD application bullshit so I was looking through some of my undergrad work from about 6 years ago. Good god im stupider these days. That bitch was out there nitpicking articles i can barely understand the titles of now
