Topshop is back! Except only in John Lewis, which doesn’t exactly feel on brand…

Welcome to the year of the horse!

OMFG, I’m going to see Hilary Duff! Truly, this is what dreams are made of!

I _can_ do the math(s) and this is promising.

I have a meeting today with the big boss of my company, so not only do I have to actually go into the office, I also have to look halfway presentable. On a Tuesday!

Types of boys?

Joining The Last Dinner Party’s ribbons and Hannah Diamond’s tights in the pantheon of bands with perfectly en pointe merchandise items is the Heartworms fountain pen.

WORD OF THE DAY.

Begat.

What Jay Kay off of Jamiroquai wears on his head.

I’m not sure I’ve ever received a more important email.

I mean, it was a nice lift, but not one I wanted to spend the rest of my evening in.

Got in the lift and the guy standing next to the buttons didn’t actually press any buttons despite a recorded voice reminding people to actually press the buttons if they wanted to go anywhere.

The worst thing about this defence of using AI in journalism is that it was also clearly written by AI.

I don’t think much of the new Handmaid’s Tale spin off.

The loudest person in the office just asked someone else to keep it down when they’re on the phone. Amazing.

It’ll be funny if he gets Matt Cardle to do a gig though.

Harry Styles curating Meltdown is the perfect choice as a lot of the worst sort of musical snob is going to have an absolute meltdown when they hear the news.

The Guardian appear to have published an article from the late 90s, when boring pricks who’d never experienced a single moment of joy during their entire lives also felt that holding this condescending opinion somehow made them interesting. You never had a fluffy bra in your wardrobe and it shows.

Hole and Awful on 6Musuc klaxon! When a mate of mine heard this for the first time he thought it was a Billie Piper song, which easily demonstrates why both Billie Piper and Awful by Hole are all kinds of amazing.

I know it’s not the worst thing Brewdog have done, but the warning signs were there right from the start.

Screenshot of the r/Scams subreddit with the question “Is Glaminsky jewellery a scam?”

I mean, the fact it’s called “Glaminsky” is a pretty good sign.

I think something happened to my body while I slept last night as my jacket doesn’t seem to sit properly when I put it on.

(I accept that it’s also possible that something has happened to my jacket instead, but I’m playing the odds here.)

Today I had hoped to pick up some cheap post-Valentine’s Day chocolates to gift to the person I love the most - Me. It’s me. I love myself the most, although not enough to spend full price - but Sainsbury’s had already spirited away their heart shaped overstock. Disappointing!

Here comes the PR attack.

I have reached a stage in my life where, if The Cooper Temple Clause were to reform, I would probably buy a ticket.

GIG UPDATE: Maxïmo Park. Valentine’s Day is all about celebrating the excitement and joy of the pure and firework filled adrenaline rush experience that can only come from true love, which is why I chose to mark it by watching Maxïmo Park do Our Velocity. (Plus other bangers)

Art Brut make me want to rock out. And as always, you can’t beat a band with a bassist who is cooler than you could ever hope to be.

Saw an older dude getting off the tube in just a t-shirt, which is a bold choice given that I am more than fully clothed and still feeling it freezing right now.

BRB, just going missing for a while.

The day after The Purge must be really awkward.

This does not include Chantelle and Preston on Celebrity Big Brother, rendering the entire article irrelevant.
