If my life depended on guessing who wrote this I would still beg for death for being reminded he exists

Just had a bad bag of Scampi Fries for the first time in my life

DELROY LINDO!!!!!!!!!!!

"Drive" had me as a 13-year old bumping around rural North Wales wishing I was doing it in shades and a Yankee cap. Crazy powerful album

I am going to shout things at the television this evening that no television has ever heard before

But then what will I do with my silicon egg brush which I will wash endlessly and still not be convinced is clean???

Is he wearing those in the hopes Trump shows up and thinks he's a completely different guy

So like, if we go out of our way to talk about how little need for toast there is, their grid becomes useless. They can't sell us their toasters anymore. Like Protestants, if you keep the toaster in the cupboard and never use it again, they lose. Are you picking up what I'm putting down

Watched a fascinating video yesterday about how the toaster was invented not because there was a sudden demand for hot bread (fantastic though it may be), but because electric companies needed reasons to keep the grid running nonstop. This is the same logic behind why AI is in everything now

Really is a highlight of my week trying to find silly things to put at the end of these

This is Calum I never talked about my disabled brother. So, here he is

Richard Tice hates neurodivergent children so you should read this to scare him maybe. There's two of them in this one alexrees.substack.com/p/this-is-ca...

Not being funny, how are you fucking people doing this

Did I Kill Someone? Something terrible happened to me this summer, but also it didn't

Got a lot of compliments on this in other places so here we go - had a breakdown in the summer, but at least it led to the most accomplished piece of writing I've ever done, so impossible to say if it was bad or not alexrees.substack.com/p/did-i-kill...
