No one seems to have discussed Help (2) so I'll just say that it's all brilliant with special nods to the numbers by Cameron Winter, Olivia Rodrigo, English Teacher and Fontaines DC alongside the previously released Pulp, Damon and Arctics tunes.

I love it. The English Teacher track is really special, as is Arlo Parks. The Cameron Winter one leaves me cold, but both appearances of Fontaines are A+++.

NB: This isn’t some Jessie Buckley-style anti-feline hate campaign. I love my cats, but I’m 99% convinced that being woken up at 5am every morning by escalating demands for food isn’t imcreasing my lifespan.

I suspect this also applies to cats.

Second time this week I’ve screenshotted a post from Threads and posted it here. But I make no apologies. This is too good not to share.

Wow Jedward have aged! So sad to see them going their own way though.

Yes! Stupidly I was waiting for the team to let me know it was live (as I’m working on another story this morning). Added to the story now.

That’s really nice to hear. Especially the idea of a 10 year old going out for weekly drinks with the crew. 😆

Daniel Radcliffe refusing to wear Alyssa Liu's gold medal because it feels like "stolen valour" is the most Daniel Radcliffe thing that Daniel Radcliffe has ever done. What a superstar.

This may seem cute but if you do this too much the cyclists may become reliant on cars feeding them, disrupting the delicate roadway ecosystem

Interviewing Wet Leg was like herding cats. Cats who swear all the time.

Had to apologise profusely both during and after the chat, but love them to bits.

Well, that’s very kind of you. 💜
