I don't think the human brain was designed to process this much routine horrors via a text-based social media app - and I really don't think it's that controversial to limit your consumption of such horrors. Mute/block wide and far. You aren't supposed to be plugged in 24/7.

Geese got their speech drowned out from the Tv broadcast but given the first word was “Free” we know what it was. #Brits2026 #TheBrits #BritAwards

Can and glass of water kefir by Sainsbury’s in strawberry and hibiscus flavour.

Honey Dijon mustard kettle chips

Prawns on baby spinach on a wholemeal bap with hollandaise sauce spread on the bap.

CW: shellfish, food

Made you an easy tea of strawberry and hibiscus pop, honey mustard crisps (appropriately sweet and hot), and a king prawn, hollandaise and spinach wholemeal bap. You’re welcome.

Caught up on #DragRace - the decisions were correct. Although someone getting by on their charisma (she absolutely has it) when she can’t remember her words for the THIRD time is frustrating.
