Mim @troublerabbit.bsky.social · 10/08/2026Unexpectedly phallic decaf latte here at the Fringe yesterday morning. Wondered what to make of it. Good coffee tho 180
Mim @troublerabbit.bsky.social · 08/08/2026I, too, am super into this. Like, at the actual nail bar I was aiming for bright siren red, but they came out more of a wine. However, this makes them perfect for accessorising entire bottles of wine, so it’s a win win in my book 🥳 030
Mim @troublerabbit.bsky.social · 08/08/2026Oh my god yes Tampopo is just brilliant in general isn’t it. What a film 120
Mim @troublerabbit.bsky.social · 08/08/2026OR come see me dramatically read Edgar Allan Poe’s MOST batshit, most underrated poem. Seriously, you’ve not LIVED until &c &c. It makes The Raven read like a thoroughly restrained tax return. And l’ll be needing a volunteer to play the KING OF GHOULS. Pizza Geeks, 1:20pm Sun 9th and Thurs 13th. 192
Mim @troublerabbit.bsky.social · 08/08/2026Tomorrow night (Sun 9th!) I’m gonna talk, among other matters, about why Hildegard von Bingen was a boss bitch and why Mary Wollstonecraft’s messiest breakup is my emotional support historical event. Brewdog Hotel, 6:15. 070

Mim @troublerabbit.bsky.social · 18/12/2025At first I was like “oh no, we can’t laugh at a car collisio-“ and then it. it just. escalated. and escalated. and now I am wheezing 🤣 170

Mim @troublerabbit.bsky.social · 20/08/2025Basically I’d love to invite my friends to open mics I’m on and be able to guarantee at least to some degree that they’re not going to get dehumanised in their seats by some chucklefuck I’m sharing the bill with as a result of their wish to support me. That feels like a low bar, right? Christ. 090
Mim @troublerabbit.bsky.social · 20/08/2025I’m not talking here about clumsy attempts at allyship, even. Just out and out appalling transphobia. I wish more comedy nights had clear policies that said “we don’t want to put on this stuff”. (Chortle-award winning Quantum Leopard *does* have an excellent policy along those lines, for example.) 160
Mim @troublerabbit.bsky.social · 20/08/2025And so many blokes who, after some beer, go “I could do stand-up. I’ll do it now, in fact! Wahey!” with zero prep. May the Lord one day grant me a FLECK of your blithe confidence, whilst sparing me all of your attempts at material. 9000% aspirational drive, 0% effort. You fill me with horrified awe. 040
Mim @troublerabbit.bsky.social · 20/08/2025My fellow aspiring cis comics: some of you really are devoting a worrying amount of time to what you appear to think are zingy one-liners about that Supreme Court ruling. I’ve not heard a single one so far that didn’t sound like a school bully. You need to cease this. This is not our story to tell. 161
Mim @troublerabbit.bsky.social · 20/08/2025Here’s the ‘But’ about London open mics. I have encountered some of the most racist, homophobic, transphobic material I’ve ever heard on the open mic circuit. All of it from people punching down from outside the house, as it were. 171
Mim @troublerabbit.bsky.social · 20/08/2025Stand up comedy thoughts: - Lots of nights these days encourage people not to heckle. That’s nice! Love that. - many people are really friendly and supportive and it’s been a delight to meet other aspiring comics. Can you tell I’m about to go “But-“? I’m about to go “But-“. 270
Mim @troublerabbit.bsky.social · 20/08/2025So I’ve started doing stand-up comedy, following a six week course at @angelcomedy.bsky.social. I have the bug real bad. It’s SO much fun. Last night was my fourth ever gig, and my best one yet, I reckon. I met Alan Francis, who was closing the show, and he said I was “really good” and made my YEAR. 0111

Mim @troublerabbit.bsky.social · 19/04/2025Found out today that the word ‘rebarbative’, meaning repellant/grim etc, is from the Latin for ‘beard’, as in ‘irritating and prickly, like a beard’. OED links it to the idea of confrontationally standing ‘beard-to-beard’. Sorry, beardy friends. (I do not find you rebarbative. I married one of you.) 030
