Yesterday I saw a production of Titus Andronicus that was so bloody that the first 2 rows of the theatre were supplied with splash tarps. This is really what I’m looking for in my theatre experience, I have to say.

Currently conducting an experiment in how little I can sleep and how many hours I can remain surgically glued to my desk chair. Watch this space for exciting updates.

Did any who voted Labour think that this was what they were signing on for? Because this is…pretty bad.

I was walking up Clapham High Street today and some lady blasted me with her can of deodorant that she was just…applying while chatting to someone over a plate of brunch.

The Papal conclave is expected to start between the 6th and 12th of May. Eurovision is between the 13th and 17th of May. Social media is about to get very confusing.

Not too impressed with the UK Supreme Court today. Trans sisters, this stinks and I’m sorry.

The thing about getting up at 5:30 on days I commute is that it makes getting up at 6:45 on days I don’t commute feel unbelievably luxurious.

Watched the first episode of Black Mirror. While I was reliving medical trauma, husband wondered: does the future really involve this much welding?

This week, my British passport arrived. And with that, we close a door on a decade of visas, biometrics, eye-watering fees, applications, exams, and innumerable photos taken at Snappy Snaps. Immigration: complete.

It was revealed to me today that my new workplace has a 90s playlist. I felt my bones crumble to the finest of dust as I reviewed data to the strains of Teenage Dirtbag.

I think, if I were the Labour Party, I would consider…taxing the richest people in our society.

This is certainly a lot to take in (to be clear, it’s not the abolition of the health service. But it is a very big deal). www.theguardian.com/society/2025...

So Labour had all these many years to come up with a few ideas, and what they’ve got is…cutting PIP?
