Steph, Destroyer of Words

I'd forgot that #DoctorFish was on. I'm watching #TheSnooker. Dear me.

Babs Windsor (no relation to the nonce guy) and a picture of the Ghostbusters.

I don't know why I did this.
It is what it is. Just leave it.

Until I just saw this I had no idea who had directed Fifty Shades. Next you'll be telling me that Michael Landy was behind Angels & Demons.

[Beavery St Mary more like]

A bit niche I fear but does anyone know the purpose of these rubber and metal things on end of pews in a former Methodist Church in North #Chingford? The church is less than 100 years old.

Me too!

This country benefits more from a poor person who’s a good person than it does from a billionaire who’s a shit.

my great-grandparents arrived in the UK in the 1890s with nothing.
they sold pickles from the front room window, took in laundry, worked as tailors.
their children were nurses, teachers, salesmen.
their grandchildren were professors, designers, opticians, doctors, magistrates, entrepreneurs.

Yeah, that's what happened to Violet too. She palled up with a ptarmigan.

Pretty sure that a ptarmigan track.*

*Joke spoiler extrodinaire.

Then they see me and they disperse. I think this is how Gary Larson must've started. #dreamtweet

The cows on the west side of the road and the cows on the east side are having a meeting. Their leaders (both rather woolly and large) stand on promontories so their mooing can carry across the emu enclosure that separates the west field from the roadside. Dogs also ferry messages. #dreamtweet

Dreamt I became pals with Sienna Miller but I got exasperated because she spent forever in the shop browsing for high end things she didn't need (shoes, clothes, pens, knick knacks) and couldn't understand that she didn't actually need.

Decided I couldn't be arsed being pals with her after that.

Unbearable. #scd

Shit! Who's he going to take?? #scd

genuinely: who has Karen upset to get the death slot four times when Lewis and George haven't been in it even once #SCD

Same.

It is a BIT off having the ringers, who have done musical theatre, do the last two numbers and having them be some of the biggest bangers from the best musicals of all time

Tonight Nikita looks like he's about to sell you a monorail. #scd

Also, as expected, a newly restored version of the classic Star Wars (1977) theatrical release will play in theaters on February 19, 2027, for a limited time. 🤗

Yes, it's the original version of the movie, not one of the Special Editions 🫡

Eight year old me was obsessed with Penguin of the Opera [swipe keyboard fail but I'm sticking with it] #scd

Dental Putty.

Oh Karen... What sick stunt have they pulled on you that will demand all of my points? #scd

Whatever TessTess did backstage last week to appease hair and wardrobe, she's not done it again. #scd

#Strictly Come Dancing is so strict that everything in Musicals Week has to go by the book.

Oh my...

Bright orange Stereum (? subtomentosum) on a dead beech branch

Bird's nest fugi (?Cyathus) on a fallen trunk. The "eggs" (peridioles) have splashed out with the rain so I can't be 100% sure which one it is.

Marasmius hudsonii on a leaf of holly (finger in the background for scale)

Dark rhizomorphs (or mycelial cords) of Armillaria on a dead tree

A nice lineup of decomposers in the woods today 🌳🍄. Which are your favorite #fungi : bright fans, eyes of the forest, tiny guys, or gothic horror? [actual names in the alt text! ]

Beautiful chemistry in the pundit box this afternoon. #snooker
