Like most people I was perplexed by Megalopolis but Coppola's response to being singled out for scorn by the atrocious Razzies is better than the movie.

Manager: "What's this milestone 'Living on a prayer' ?" Me: "That's the documentation deliverable." Manager: "What's the status of that?" Me: "We're halfway there" Manager: "Why is progress so slow?" Me: "You fired Tommy" Manager: "So?" Me: "Tommy used to work on the docs"

Saw a video where a woman in her early 20s was talking about an item that was popular in the 90s and described it as “Something people wore in the last century.” Now, while technically I know she’s correct, I still feel the need to go and have a lie down in a dark, quiet room for a bit.

It's not"comedy on prescription". It's an intervention from a charity that could be 1 option for someone receiving social prescribing support. It's not NHS - social prescribing systems are partnerships across health, LA, & voluntary sectors. No-one commenting has any idea what they're talking about

I don’t mean Zoe in particular, but having spent most of a decade saying what it was while our media class gargled in raw terror at the imminent tyranny of a bunch of students, nurses and social workers, I would say: it’s not that you were frozen with fear. You *had more important priorities*.

I’m gonna take myself out for a hot date on Valentines with myself. I’m gonna woo me with food and drink and so many compliments that I’ll make myself blush. Then I’ll go home and replay it and realise all the things I should have said and be filled with regret. It will be great.

Thought I'd have a look to see what's actually on the website. This is what I got (I'm in the UK). The action I took was entering the URL and clicking go.

Watching The Traitors with the 12yo is brilliant. She's convinced she'd beat them all and has a game plan for every situation. Starting the campaign for a kids version that she can join (and I also get a trip to the Scottish castle...)

Shame on you Lisa Nandy. I couldn't care less about denying 'sports fans the opportunity that they love' when women in Afghanistan are denied basic human rights and are essentially slaves. What message are you sending about your priorities? Shame. On. You. www.theguardian.com/sport/2025/j...

For many years I have been posting little observations online. What you may not know is that for many years, artists have been illustrating them - for no reason other than they wanted to respond. Below is a thread of some of these beautiful drawings because they should be seen 🧵

Some people in recent days have alleged a ‘cover-up’ over the grooming & rape of hundreds of young girls in predominantly northern UK towns, leading to calls for a ‘national’ public inquiry into child sexual exploitation FWIW here’s a non-exhaustive list of inquiries into #CSE in last 12 yrs…

It’s over 1,000km from Berlin to Paris There’s now a direct daytime train between them, that takes 8 hours and costs just €59. Leave at 10am, arrive 6pm. And… it’s just 1% the carbon emissions of the equivalent flight www.euronews.com/travel/2024/...

A few potential words of the day: Joblijock: a disturber of domestic peace (small children, cantankerous uncles, etc). Yule-hole: the furthest notch in your belt that you need to resort to at Christmas. Confelicity: joy in other people’s happiness. Merry Christmas.
