Got to the final episode. What a waste of the Rani. What a confused mess. Like they threw a load of shit to see what would stick. Terrible.

PSA: if you label an email to me as "ACTION NEEDED:" it pretty much without fail goes straight to the bottom of my priority list.

Finally, finally, catching up on Doctor Who (ngl, Space Babies put me off for a long time)...gotta say, Ncuti's second series is pretty damn solid. Good stories, well woven social issues - a little hammy in the writing at times but it is prime time sci fi. Shame it's possibly the start of the end.

Got interviewed for @yorkshirepost.co.uk . Mentioned @bobmort.bsky.social . I would like to submit the amendment that I actually said "the sheer amount of nonsense that man spouts", not good sense. Lovely write up, cheeky mention of MUTTON, really enjoyed this interview

Fuck I thought this was just an ADHD thing. I've only just recovered from toblerone addiction. Now on crumpets.

I loved it! Thought otherwise the whole series was crashing out and becoming a bit shite

My main learning from this is... Fuck me, he's 85!

Yeah fair, maybe I was just younger so thought he was cooler in his Tenacious D/School of Rock era

First comparison to Jack Black of the year. Told the teachers I didn't mind but he has sold out a bit now. They amended to a young Jack Black

Done! Done! Draft three is done! I don't need to think about witches or hens or misogyny for at least 6 weeks!

Except for the ACE bid resubmission this week...and the misogynistic state of the world...and the girlfriend who is desperate to adopt hens for the garden.

Watching a Trump-Musk press conference as research for a thing... And fuck me but they are both insufferable cunts

Let it be known that after 2+ years of hiding, I'm finally starting to come back out and start gigging

And now...we're about to move in with each other, sopped up and sharing a life of dog sitting, long walks, silliness, good beer, good cheese and essentially just feeling utterly at home in each other's presence. Neither of us were looking for it, but then isn't that when the best stuff happens?

One year ago I went to a mate's party. Spotted this dead lovely human from across the room, stood with a guy I'd met before. Went over cos I liked her tattoos and her face. Chatted a lot and realised we basically have the same brain. Had a snog. Snogged our mutual mate as well. Got her number.

Basically yeah. Have also heard stories of people paying 6 months rent up front. We saw one house where the landlord wanted someone to move in 23rd December. Mad

I'm moving house. My flat hasn't been redecorated in nearly ten years (previous tenant here for 7, me for 2)...possibly longer. It has ancient storage heaters, the carpet is rank, the bathroom suite is pure 70s....landlord has put the rent up AND managed to let it within a week. Renting is broken.

Anyone else tempted to insert a random word into the middle of their document when a fellow train passenger nips to the loo and leaves their laptop unattended?

Two of those goals entirely on Meslier. Wish we had someone worth dropping him for.

Gifted them both goals in this game and made it unnecessarily hairy. Not sure Darlow would be any better - just need to get promoted and get rid

Interval time @sheffieldtheatres.bsky.social and sweet Christmas but Little Shop will never fail to bring me SO MUCH JOY.

From past, the lesbian ratio was high in the hockey team as well.

Much bigger pub though, the oak. Reckon you could fit a fair few lesbians in there.
