Caught up with E2. James over Amol was the right choice for the Traitors. Fuming that super brainy Hannah Fry has likely been screwed over because Jerry Hall couldn't lie in a coffin for 5 mins. Ross Kemp continues to be surprisingly hilarious. I think Richard E Grant was banished #CelebrityTraitors

As much as I like Amol I think he's toast here. James will probably be able to plead his case to Maya & Richard better #CelebrityTraitors #TheTraitors #TheTraitorsUK

Ross Kemp reacting to every single innocuous touch given to him by other players like he's just been marked for death is sending me into orbit 😂 #CelebrityTraitors #TheTraitors #TheTraitorsUK

That's a lot of explosions. Was this challenge directed by Michael Bay? #CelebrityTraitors

Well that's a unique way to start the game, with Richard E Grant (jokingly) admitting to being a Traitor! #CelebrityTraitors #TheTraitors #TheTraitorsUK

Our initial Traitors are Maya Jama and Richard E Grant. Very interesting, Richard's gonna absolutely crush it but he might be too obvious a pick, Maya I think could be a dark horse #TheTraitors #CelebrityTraitors #TraitorsUK

Was looking through my old archive of gifs earlier today, and found this one which it only feels right to post given the terrible news about Pac earlier

Unsurprisingly this turned out to be extremely productive, maybe I should step away from social media to write more often

Completely unrelated to current events in the news, this weekend seems like a good weekend to ignore social media and get down to some writing, wouldn't you say? 😉

A quick heads up: there's no podcast this week - Frezno was away on vacation, Kuchiri had to pull out as well - and I'm away on holiday next week so our next podcast [Colditz, a Big Finish audio] won't be recorded until at least the 22nd, after I get back #DoctorWho

Between the tragic losses of Bonnie Tyler, Hayden Panettiere and now Dolly Parton, this has been a terrible couple of months for celebrity deaths 😢 www.bbc.co.uk/news/live/c0...
bbc.co.uk
Dolly Parton, legendary US country singer, dies aged 80
In a statement confirming her death, the singer's team says she will be remembered as an "inspiration" and for her "wit, warmth, and kindness".

I'm enjoying watching Gamescom Opening Night Live so far but between peeps in a Twitch chat constantly claiming trailers are "fake" and other peeps trying to reduce the death of Dolly Parton to a comedic bit, it's taking all I have to not flip over a table

No less than 24 hours after an National Emergency alert urging us all to not light fires outside, some fuckers let off fireworks outside my house. Maddening but also depressingly predictable -_-

I keep hearing people talk about how they plan to look at the eclipse tonight 'safely' and between looking at it in a mirror and looking at it in a bucket of water, an awful lot of people are going blind if they actually follow through with this🙃
