For Fucks Sake

I am often triggered by what I see and/or what I hear, and this part of the condition is called echolalia. For example, when the chair of BAFTA started speaking on Sunday, I shouted, "Boring." On Sunday, Alan Cumming joked about his own sexuality and, when referencing Paddington Bear, said, "Maybe you would like to come home with me, Paddington. It wouldn't be the first time I have taken a hairy Peruvian bear home with me." This resulted in homophobic tics from me and led to a shout of "pedophile" that was likely triggered because Paddington Bear is a children's character.

I would appreciate reports of the event explaining that I ticked perhaps 10 different offensive words on the night of the awards. The N-word was one of these, and I completely understand its significance in history and in the modern world, but most articles are giving the impression I shouted one single slur on Sunday.

StudioCanal were working closely with BAFTA, and BAFTA had made us all aware that any swearing would be edited out of the broadcast. I have made four documentaries with the BBC in the past, and feel that they should have been aware of what to expect from Tourette's and worked harder to prevent anything that I said - which, after all, was some 40 rows back from the stage - from being included in the broadcast.

As I reflect on the auditorium, I remember there was a microphone just in front of me, and with hindsight I have to question whether this was wise, so close to where I was seated, knowing I would tic.

okay what the fuck was the BBC doing with that broadcast? because at this point it could be mistaken for intentional… variety.com/2026/film/aw...

Empathy is severely lacking in this country.

My Authenticator number was 69 today. Niiiiccce.

A lot of people treat apologizing as a punishment. It’s helping me understand why I felt like I was constantly apologizing but would not get the same from my friends.

Their idea of joy is assaulting the public.

A lot of white people can’t seem to fathom apologizing to Black people.

I just think maybe people should apologize if they cause harm.

They carried Johnny Gaudreau’s daughter onto the ice to celebrate and snap a picture and then behind closed doors mocked women and women in sports.

The boys hockey team in my hometown was best known for sexually assaulting each other on the away game buses so I am in no way surprised the whole team was thrilled to talk to a child rapist and celebrate with him.

I hope everyone can stay safe down there.

The BAFTAs handled the situation like complete utter assholes. They could have cut slur from broadcast, they cut “free Palestine”, they didn’t apologize directly to MBJ and Lindo. Brits are never beating the racism allegations no matter how much they bleat about classism.

I’m mad at kiwi because I love kiwi but it started to make my mouth feel itchy 2 years ago.

sometimes something bad happens where there are no malicious actors, no one is happy, and everyone gets the worst possible outcome they don't deserve. social media exists to strip such events of context so we can have clear winners and losers

Oh god I’m sorry. We’re going to playa del Carmen in 2 weeks and I’m nervous even though I know the Yucatán peninsula is isolated from cartel activity and very safe. I’m so bummed for you.

The men’s hockey team thing kinda makes my point about sportswashing the US with the Olympics.

Telling a piece of shit racist they’re a racist and muting their asses feels amazing.

Your complete refusal to even attempt to sympathize with 2 Black men tells me everything I need to know. John Davidson might not be racist but you sure as shit are.

The impact of those words still hit everyone who heard it. It is racism. It’s very illustrating that you refuse to understand the impact of that word while having so much sympathy for the man using it. You KNOW it’s bad which is why you sympathize with the guy most like you.

Oh fuck off.

Why the fuck didn’t Alan cumming directly apologize to Michael B Jordan and Delroy Lindo?!

Evangelicals love child trafficking.

Successfully peed with this twice, peed on myself 0 times. I’m a natural.

He sees a surgeon on Wednesday. He’s got a sling for now.

So my dad fell and broke his shoulder Thursday. He told me today. He went to the doctor the following day because he had an appointment anyway. Yes his doctor yelled at him for not going to the ER. 🤦🏻‍♀️ Yes I yelled at him for not telling me sooner.

I think I can officially call myself a dedicated day hiker now. My pstyle arrived today! It’s a female urinary device so I can pee outside on the side the of the road without showing the world my ass. Gotta practice with it in the shower so I don’t pee on myself.

Michael Tracey may be one of the biggest fucking idiots in the world.

Nice! Happy to hear it went well!

Is there a way I can wholly reject a timeshare sell without them treating us like total shit once we make it clear we’re not interested?

Princess of Norway has extensive ties to Epstein and a piece of shit rapist son. What a fucking trash ass family.
