When I worked in UK academia I recall hearing of a Japanese man who was baffled at how Britain had decided to run its universities like firms. “Why? Your universities are excellent and your firms are terrible.”

Thinking about Valentine's Day in 2002 when the Buffy musical episode first aired in the UK and I watched it with a friend whilst getting drunk and eating Ferrero Rocher. Best V Day ever. I might commemorate it by sticking on the DVD, eating Ferrero Rocher and getting tipsy.

Watching a film where Jensen Ackles has a mohawk, wears a kilt, and goes shopping for tampons. Fully here for it. Also, Clea Duvall. How have I not seen this before? #TenInchHero

I love that Vix includes a shout out to the Catatonia mailing digest in this. Those were the days.

"No cheating. Your last saved celebrity pic is your therapist". Not sure if it's Denise or Cooper, or both of them together, but I am fully here for it.

Incredible how wealthy people supposedly aren’t biased and so the government will listen to their opinion on tax rates (and actually act in their favour) but trans people are inherently biased and so can never be included in conversations in relation to our welfare

Oh come on! As someone who’s played too many video games, this is unfairly tempting

Ah man, how incredibly sad. I fell in love with Twin Peaks when I was about 14 and he became one of my favourite directors. Gutted.

I can’t get over how cartoonishly evil this is putting in your fucking “hate speech” policy that a particular kind of hate speech against a particular group of people is explicitly allowed - and therefore encouraged - is the kind of shit that should be done from a volcano lair with a shark moat

Ellie is fully to blame/thank(?) to me becoming slightly addicted to this bonkers game since she steamed it on Saturday. There's no way I'm ever going to top our Discord leaderboard, but it's fun and also very cheap, so win. www.theguardian.com/games/2024/d...

It’s even worse knowing that Wes actually met trans kids, listened to them cry about how awful it would be to go through the wrong puberty, how this is a lifesaving treatment, and is fucking doing this anyway It’s even more heartless than shutting them out of conversations

Catching up on Only Connect from yesterday, to watch @muddyasblood.bsky.social, and got very excited by the brief Catatonia clip. 😄

Always strange for me watching 28 Days Later since some of it was filmed in my parents' house - when he finds his parents' rotting corpses they're in my mum & dad's bed. And the crumpled up photo of him when small is actually of my brother due to a production mistake (my mum was furious)

Just put up my little 5ft Christmas tree and realised it's been 20 years since I bought it from Argos and had to lug it up Rainbow Hill to get to my first rented flat in Worcester. 🎄 Now treating myself to a festive port and enjoying my Christmas playlist on shuffle.

I feel like videogames actually do provide a pretty accurate representation of real life right now because a lot of videogames are like “THE WORLD IS ENDING” and then you just collect herbs and pretend nothing is wrong
