Yasssss!
Alyssa Liu you have won my heart for that McArthur Park skate. What an absolute disco delight.
Half of those will be from classes I've taught this to as a media text.
She never lived to see this moment, but it’s worth remembering that none of this would have happened without Virginia Giuffre.
She had the courage to speak out against power and privilege when it was just her word against Andrew’s.
Thanks to her, justice & accountability may finally have its day.
Somewhere, somehow, at a right-wing tabloid, the most deranged Meghan story of all time is being birthed
When's Trump's birthday?
Coincidently I'm currently in the middle of watching the Netflix doc on Epstein so the anger is bubbling pretty close to the surface.
If only this were the start of many, many arrests. We really should stop letting rich people do what they want to the rest of us.

I've been watching the Winter Olympics on Discovery+ and it has been a very good decision. Well done Mikhail, who can't quite believe what has happened to him this evening.
Laurence's arms should win an Olympic gold on their own.
Although after watching the European Championships they were a welcome break from Ricky bloody Martin.
The ice dance scores are pleasingly as they should be. The French routine was absolutely spellbinding - mad that it's been such a short partnership. Shame for the USA as they are also brilliant, delighted for the Canadians as I very much enjoy their vibe Also, lesson to GB - never rely on bagpipes.
You'll need to put your sound on because Figure Skating is in the middle of a breakdown and it is immensely entertaining.
Teachers are too busy trying to mop up society's failings to individualise the process.
I said on Saturday night that Captain Hastings would definitely vote Reform.
The Jackie Stewart documentary is really interesting, as is Brawn with Keanu Reeves.
I've watched so many films about F1...
Also, The Quick and the Dead. Although that makes me sad as it has poor François in it. The most beautiful dead French man I've ever seen.
I'm currently watching Benneton Formula. Which will not be troubling the pantheon.
Senna, I'd say. I also have a soft spot for Rush. And at least Rush has the good grace to be set in a time period when women were actually served as badly as they appear to be narratively.
F1 isn't even the best film about F1.
I have been successful in installing Josie and the Pussycats as Lily's favourite film so I'm afraid I've already won 2026.
I think it's a bad sign that every major news media outlet has spent days asking whether or not murder is bad and how much child porn is an okay amount
I've absolutely fallen in love with the gym again. A feeling that has only been enhanced by finding workout clothes that I actually like wearing. You can save all your bum sculpting lycra, wide leg joggers are my new crush.
2025 - an absolute banger of a year.
At the bus stop after work when a car pulled up and stopped in front of me. I wasn't really paying attention so it took me a moment to realise that rather than staring into the middle distance I was now rudely staring right at the person in the passenger seat. Who was Richard E Grant.
Found myself spreading cold mashed sweet potato on a bagel yesterday as if it was a perfectly reasonable thing for a human being to do.
God bless pie tapas for alleviating the size of my hangover this morning and allowing me the ability to sit through my cut and colour this afternoon...
We've invented pie tapas and are frankly delighted about it.
Michael has never eaten trifle so I made a vegan black forest trifle for Christmas. Layer of vegan brownies, layer of cherries in cherry brandy, layer of dark alpro pudding, layer of whipped vegan cream and creme fraiche, topped with grated dark chocolate and more cherries. Absolutely banging.
