06.03.2026 19:05 — 👍 2 🔁 0 💬 0 📌 0Des is fab! I submit jokes each week. It's an open door show, so there's a pool of writers all writing to a weekly brief. Sometimes I get something on, and often I don't. But there are so many good writers that I'm chuffed to be in such great company.

Just finished watching Dinosaur, series 2. Properly funny and so, so lovely. Great to see @kazbaaa.bsky.social in episode 6!

Yup. Just lost it at “I’m lucky to have found my people.”
That’s the ticket.
The opening shot of Twin Peaks, but with "Richard Osman's House of Games" written on it instead. Not funny, but it's Sunday and I'm bored.
Sorry.

I did my undergraduate in Medieval Studies because of my interests, not because I thought it would get me a job. Ok, by the time I did my MA and PhD I may have had a better idea of what I wanted to do, but which employer would contribute? Other universities?!
Break the idea that study is for work!
