Can someone please just stop greasing up Michael Portillo and filming him on fucking trains

Anyone else convince themselves when in their 20s that a legitimate form of employment was going to be just doing loads and loads of paid online surveys?

Shrove Tuesday: “omg why don’t we eat pancakes every day?! They’re so good!”

Ash Wednesday: “I can’t think about a pancake again for at least 18 months”.

Can we just stop putting things into espresso machines that don’t belong there? Just saw a beef tallow espresso and bit my tongue

New disc golf season begins this weekend! I am so so ready

Twitter (X) has just become too much for me to bare now. I am sad to be losing a network built over 15 years, but the majority of what I see there is violence, right wing opinion, incel culture, and racism. Hoping to build something lovely here.

So it seems 2025 will continue with the food trend of combining foods that don’t need to be combined. Cacio Pepe milkshake; butter chicken hotdog pizza; full English breakfast sushi. What have we become?

2024 has had some lovely moments, but it’s also ostensibly been the worst year in my life for a myriad of micro and macro reasons. Can’t wait to see it off before my liver explodes meaning I become a “new man” in 2025.

When I was younger, the later into December it got the more exciting an advent calendar was.
Now I’m 32, I’m simply more & more annoyed at the increasing lack of structural integrity of it. With each door opened, rigidity further compromised to unprecedented levels

@goldbergradio.bsky.social hi Adrian. I’m going to Preston away on Saturday. What were your pub recommendations again? I’m looking to frequent them pre and post match!

According to my stream Tom Fellows is starting at right centre mid :’) #WBA

@footballcliches.bsky.social Coventry 1-2 Sheff U at half time. Red card, chaos, booing of ex players, Wilder fuming at 4th official, Mann & Hinchcliffe bantering away at one and other. Is this the most purely Saturday midday fixture available at the moment?

Monica Galetti: takes 45 minutes to smash out a tiramisu from scratch
Gregg: “how long are we giving them for this challenge Mon?”
Monica: “20 minutes”

The argument from farmers that “people want cheap food” conflates the issue. I respect and hear their concerns, but cost of living, the wealth gap, and poverty are simply not to blame. The poorest amongst us have been affected like this for decades without support.

I care so much more about inside household flooring being wet than I ever have done. Hand washing drips on kitchen floor? Socks ruined. Faint shower excess on kitchen floor? That’s an athlete’s foot waiting to happen.

@footballcliches.bsky.social adjudication on “Rotated England”? Not really sure you can declare a team as rotated, particularly as a pithy descriptor in a YouTube highlights package.

I mean I for one am partial to an Indian feast any hour of the day

A Bluesky exclusive for you (unless you were at the recent live shows): via pod listener Isaac — from an animal park on the outskirts of Bordeaux — the greatest "footballers' names in things" we've ever been sent.

The nations league is so so so Thursday. It feels plain wrong as a weekend activity. It’s like going for a full Indian meal (not a bday/occasion) on a weeknight. It just feels inappropriate. Nations league, 3(!)beers, reluctant tooth brushing, doom scrolling in bed. That’s the menu.

Being in your 30s is getting Glastonbury tickets despite having immense inner anxiety about getting Glastonbury tickets and secretly hoping you don’t get Glastonbury tickets but then actually being made up that you get Glastonbury tickets.

WHEN will they give us a fucking EDIT BUTTON

Looking forward to about 3 weeks time where folks are like “yeh I remember bsky back when it wasn’t so crowded. I guess you could say I was *there* you know?”

Oh come on! I’m sure he will settle into his new career just fine as a linesman

Care to explain what this means man? I want to make the transition nice and easy

I wish Marcus Wearing would stop trying to rebrand the word “details” as “point of difference”

We’ll always be together, living in a Muskless dreeeeeeeeammmmmm
