i worry that men think being A Good Guy is dramatically and heroically intervening on behalf of an endangered woman and then being publicly rewarded on a grand scale when actually being A Good Guy is just usually saying, “hey man that’s not funny” or “wow that’s fucked up” and there is no reward

The difference in UK and US temperament is in the UK we “couldn’t care less” and the Yanks “could care less”. So the UK starts at complete disinterest, but the US has an innate level of enthusiasm that still has the capacity to move downwards. The Aussies, of course, don’t give a fuck.

I feel like it’s worse to bully someone in your community until they’re homeless and financially destitute than it is to report on people doing that

I had a vasectomy last week and am still extremely jet-lagged from my U.S trip. Why these details? Because I did a set last night where the jetlag + pain in my balls collided til I was in a daze, which meant I repeatedly said “I had a vasectomy” and never elaborated. New catchphrase?

John Robertson onstage at a comedy club, his suit is black, his hair is long and white and he is almost certainly in the middle of saying, “I had a vasectomy” without elaborating on this in any way.

I don’t care billionaires think about any country. They don’t live with or near normal people, they sit on social media, have about 12 mates who are just like them and think the world’s turned to shit because the poors are rude to them online. Mental illness with no relief, just an extreme budget.

Saw The Odyssey, loved it. Christopher Nolan makes huge movies to watch on huge screens with your hands in your ears every time the bass makes your intestines shake. Didn’t think the movie was having any real emotional affect on me, then I wept through a fight scene. A modern epic. Fab.

Call me a lefty snowflake traitor, but crowing over a woman being assaulted by multiple men (one with a stick) while under investigation for a £5m bung & losing two senior aides for illegal donor fraud is not a brilliant look. Expect serious defensive leaning in Nigel dismissing this at any moment.

Can always tell when I’m tired, cos I’ll hear something mundane like “like, share and subscribe” and mutter “your mum likes, shares and subscribes.” Today’s new one? “Your mum’s early works don’t reflect the colourful impressionist masterpieces with which he’d later become associated.”

The first person I ever heard use the term “imposter syndrome” was one of the biggest pricks I’ve ever met. It’s scary to think that with some self-confidence he could have been a fuckwit at almost cosmic scale.

Good-faith concern on this issue would be going, "hmm, professional sports leagues should probably have some standards in place to ensure trans competitors aren't getting an unfair advantage," googling for 5 minutes, realizing every sports league already has those standards and dropping it.
