The thought of going back to work sends me into a horrible spiral. How does one separate oneself from the "you are a grown man and it is pathetic that you can't go to work because of your hurt fee-fees" intrusive thought

Anyway said sister and I went on a shared mental health walk today, and Cosmo and her dog got to hang out for the first time in three years. I was a little nervous because Cosmo can be a little dickhead around other dogs

My sister's Spotify algorithm created a playlist for her called "The Unenthused Sleepy Weepies" and it's become my family's euphemism for depression

So, about five months after discovering that Disney+ had every episode of Dragonball Z Kai, yesterday I finished watching the final episode. I was really into the dub fandom as a teenager and it kick-started my love of performing, so it was emotional reliving it through the definitive version!

Look, I love going to football but I hate this idea and you'll struggle to find a regular matchgoer who would support this. There is a sizable minority of football fans who make it their life's mission to be bellends and you can guarantee they would deliberately lob their pints in the air at goals

So we're nearing the end of our Breaking Bad rewatch. We watched season 5 episode 13 last night, so tonight it's time to watch Ozymandias, which is the greatest episode of television that has ever been or ever will be made. Equal parts dreading it and pumped to fuck to get to experience this again

Spent the last several weeks making my way through the truly outstanding Blueprint for Armageddon, Hardcore History's series on WW1. I can say, without any hesitation or doubt, that I would choose prison over enforced conscription if those are the options given to me.

Guys I feel like I'm losing my fucking mind. I drive past the same petrol station to get to rehearsal, and I swear the price is higher every time? Like last month it was at £1.50 per litre for Unleaded and last night it was at £1.73 and has been going up by a penny a day for at least a week?

Big life update is that things got even worse at work and I've been signed off again. It is honestly so dispiriting to know that you pushed yourself as far as you possibly could and were unsafely beyond capacity for so long, but it still wasn't enough. It will all be okay: Planning my next move 🩵

Sometimes I think about how much creative influence Michael Jordan had on Space Jam, and one of his directives was to portray Minor League Baseball players as schlubby middle-aged men who are in awe of him

Back at it, for some reason. First match against Aston Villa for 25 years, when I was a kid this was our main rivalry. But after Sunday, this is the least enthusiastic I've felt about going to the CBS for quite some time #pusb

Wife is away for a few days. Watched "Train Dreams" tonight and it made me cry. The injustice of an individual, complicated life going uncelebrated and unheard. The tragedy of modest dreams being destroyed. The bitterness of being outpaced by a world that doesn't slow down

On the home stretch of our Breaking Bad rewatch. If you weren't watching Breaking Bad in 2012, you simply are not capable of comprehending the PAIN caused by the 12 month wait for the next episode after this cliffhanger. The greatest cliffhanger in television history and I will not budge

Train was stopped outside of work stop for fifteen minutes due to incident + lack of crew. They've decided to bypass the stop and let anyone who wants it off at a different stop. The manager has not given an explanation for who has made this decision

I love it when random tea finds its way to my Facebook timeline. A delightful walk to the station reading about a mother trying to stiff a local entertainment company out of paying for a bouncy castle that she said was deflated the entire time, then the mother herself wading in

Deacon is an underrepresented but very stark example of online radicalisation. I remember the early days of Twitter when he was a solid follow and generally wrote decent, funny articles (the Da Vinci Code parody probably the most notable), in 2026 he's lost his mind and gone Full TERF

I just think that risking your life at a moment's notice to save people you've never met in exchange for no money is a better expression of patriotism than dressing up like a Poundshop paramilitary and intimidating families with kids trying to get onto a ferry.

I genuinely don't think I will ever relate to a fictional character more than Bart Simpson getting the F that confirms he'll have to repeat the 4th grade, bursting into tears and yelling "You don't understand, I tried to study! I really tried! This is as good as I could do, and I still failed!"

In my experience, anyone who criticises the RNLI, calls them a "taxi for illegals" etc utterly fucking melts when you ask them "and what do you want to happen instead".

Do you know how the new Inbetweeners movie could be good? Shamelessly copy "The World's End". The friends have moved across the country, lost contact and haven't spoken in years. Jay gets the gang, who all apart from him have varying flavours of the same boring middle-class life their parents did

They don't even disparage the methods. What meaning is one supposed to gleam from this other than "your cause is just and correct, and we are trying to give you what you want". Is the feeling that this statement will *discourage* the protestors

It's such a ridiculous thing to say. There must be what, thousands, and where does "London" begin and end? I'm to believe he's hiked it out to the hostelries in Yiewsley?
