My arachnophobe American friend: oh my god I’d rather die than go to Australia, I’m so glad the break up of Pangaea happened

Watching #StarTrekPicard and I’m enjoying it, but I am angry that they did my boy Icheb dirty 😭😭

I re-listened to that album recently and it is just banger after banger, still excellent. It also transpires that I have dedicated considerable brain space to memorising every single lyric.

I cannot tell you how much I hate finding out when I have fucked around. I loathe the consequences of my own actions. I don’t know who I think I am.

I know everyone has haters but today I discovered that Chappell Roan has haters who have chosen the "she can't sing" angle and look, I can't stand Tom Brady but you wouldn't catch me dead embarrassing myself by claiming in public that he's bad at football

This is probably one of the dumbest wishes I’ve thrown out into the universe but I desperately need someone to make a Craig Bond edit to Paper Planes by MIA. I need it. #JamesBond

As I watch the news out of the US with increasing horror, I remember waking up in November 2016 to the news that Trump had won the election and I cried, and was told I was overreacting. Reader, I was not overreacting then and you are not overreacting now. Resist.

A reminder that in 2010 the Bloody Sunday inquiry found - the killings were unjustified - none of the 14 dead (7 of whom were children) had guns - no warnings were given - no soldiers were under threat - the troops were the first to open fire 43 years on, we await the first prosecution.

Last night my 18mo niece shared her absolute favourite food in the world with me and it may genuinely be the most touching gift I have ever received

Rewatched ‘Rear Window’ at the weekend, still my favourite #Hitchcock movie by some ways. I love the way the narrative is woven between genuine tension and intrigue in contrast with incredible intimate snapshots into the lives of his neighbours.

Decades of confirmation hearings where women testify to abuse and sexual violence, only for the men in question to rise to higher positions of power, is a perfect encapsulation of why more victims don’t come forward.

Videos showing the storm damage in Galway are awful, but all I could think on seeing some of it was ‘Who the fuck is parking their car on Salthill Prom during a red warning, would you be well!’ #StormEowyn

Watched #CaptainAmericaWinterSoldier last night: still the best thing Marvel has ever put out, and chillingly prescient regarding the motivations and justifications of certain governments. Mantra for the next few years is WWSRD: what would Steve Rogers do

If you have a cyanide tooth as standard as a double-0 in the Bond universe, do they do a sleep study to make sure you don’t grind your teeth first, or do they just consider it natural selection for secret agents? #JamesBond

The only time I enjoy time zone fuckery is when the Australian Open tennis is on and I get to listen to the evening session on the radio at work. #AO2025

It’s funny Zuck says “I started building social media to give people a voice” when in fact, he started building social media to publicly rate the hotness of undergrads.

First movie of 2025 was #Conclave and it set a very high bar, what a spectacular movie. Thoroughly enjoyed every second of it, and loved the ending. #MovieList2025

Jeff Bezos never wanted this cartoon to become public. He killed it, and as a result, pulitzer prize editorial cartoonist Ann Telnaes quit. Make sure everyone sees this cartoon.

The best thing about being on my own in the office is being able to sing along with my music. The worst thing about being alone in the office is when you’re actually not and now one of the cleaners is trying to politely pretend she’s deaf.

Today is my grandma’s 87th birthday. She’s tiny, she’s fiery, she can drink me under the table. She’s visited four continents. She’s been an actress, a market trader, a mother, grandmother, and great-grandmother. She’s gorgeous, whip smart, so funny, and I love her to bits.
