You know how we’re calling posts on here skeets as a replacement for tweets? I did *not* know this and have taken to calling them bleats bc we’re all just bleating into the ether and honestly I think my word is better

I’m not overly fussed about Xmas and I’m not someone who goes in for major festive decorating but I am also not someone who can walk past offensively pink tinsel and a glittery swan on a shelf in the Range without purchasing said tackiness 🤷🏻‍♀️

I love the school run shout-outs on Classic FM, absolute mayhem. Happy birthday to Jacinta, 9, who's going on a trip up Everest after her cor anglais exam, and Mungo, 7, who will be invested as Archbishop of York after his PhD viva on the origins of Mandarin.

I'd tell that baby, "You believe in heaven, but my lord and savior is gravity," then I'd open my parachute and let the Christian baby make his own stupid Christian baby decision because I don't have time to negotiate cosmic nonsense with some dipshit baby in mid-air, c'mon

‘Lydia Lunch and Marc Hurtado perform the music of Suicide and Alan Vega’ - less a gig, more an art installation. Absolutely fucking brilliant 🖤

But have you ever written a history book in which you accidentally misnamed Mary sodding Shelley and it is still in print like that and you CRINGE cos it keeps being put on display in major bookstores and all you can think is ‘oh god oh god oh god 😩’? I have 💀

I just discovered there was once a Christmas play put on the Royal Court Theatre in Liverpool called 'The Hitchhiker's Guide To Fazakerly' and NGL I would pay good money to see that

My dad (gawdrestissoul) would have liked this—he’d regularly declare ‘you should end a sentence on a preposition never’ and then chortle like the evil gremlin he truly was

I’ve just spent an hour fixing some tiny-but-incredibly-irritating punctuation errors in a book that has been out for a year. Then got a message from amazon warning I had to un-capitalise the word ‘Black’ (in ref to someone’s race) or it’d be marked as an error. Couldn’t make this shit up 🙄

International spy agencies could learn a lot from typos, which are somehow capable of hiding thru seventy-six (approx) rounds of edits then popping up to give me the finger six months after the bastard thing’s been published

Pretty sure the sparrows can stick up for themselves. Mine’s a tenner on the little one at the back, he’s got a vicious glint in his eye

Same. I was a school governor for a while and to this day, state schools are required to hold daily ‘collective worship’, regardless of their religious status (or lack thereof). Lots of heads get round it by just doing general assemblies these days

You are welcome 👍🏻😂 and yes, very earwormy! I reckon it’s a hangover of daily school assemblies in the 70s-80s, they bloody loved a good hymn (can confirm I also still know the words to We Plough The Fields And Scatter)

Anyway if anyone can tell me why I—a vehement opponent of organised religion—have been humming ‘To Be A Pilgrim’ all day, that would be great

So basically I’m following any accounts that a)I already know; b)seem like they might be fun in the pub; or c)post pics of animals and/or birds. That’s how this works, right?

we all thought Twitter’s collapse would be swift and sudden like the fall of the Roman Empire but instead it’s been a steady, irreversible decay like the fall of the Roman Empire

Everyone should have the confidence of Mr Bobinski wedging himself into my neck when I make the mistake of lying down for more than thirty seconds (don’t wedge yourself into strangers necks tho, that shit gets you arrested)
