Not saying it's been a tough week but sleep is basically a series of weary naps, a few pages of PG Wodehouse and then another nap.

Reading BritCard.pdf and finding the truly cursed phrase "build the digital right-to-work/right-to-rent credential and integrate it with Home Office’s enforcement strategy".

It's okay to just be a slutty twink. Especially if your name is Brilyn.

Nottingham is delightful

TIL that they're building Euston station seemingly without a design, a budget, or a timescale. I learnt this from a letter from the Definitely Not Bond Villain firm of Mace Dragados

DALEK INVASION! ♾️ A brand-new Bernice Summerfield series begins today. Click https://bgfn.sh/de1 to listen to the first part of The Dalek Eternity... OUT NOW!

I don’t know what you’re laughing at. Glory Hole Park commemorates the founders of the city of Aspen discovering surprise sausage on that very site.

Living in Turkey I've come to see the benefits of an ID card. BUT 1) Turkey is a surveillance dictatorship so 🤷 2) Labour set this up for misguided data-mining and Reform sweep in and use it to make Lists.

There's so much about Gaza that is awful. But this poor family have done all they can to keep their pet alive, and in the end they couldn't. I wanted a tiny mercy, a small happy ending for them. 💔

The File on 4 on migrant hotels is interesting. You feel sorry for the people caught up in a system that has evolved itself into stupidity. Also angry at the sheer mess of it all. Refreshing to hear voices from inside the hotels rather than "I'm not a racist but" voxpops.

Turned the heating on. No regrets.

Found at the local junk store. You just know they all vote Reform

Used a toothbrush I'd left on a sunny windowsill all summer. Now have a mouthful of bristles. Cannot recommend. The aftermath of minty kipper.

Never stop being vaguely threatening, Trainline

İ text the cleaner that three people are coming to stay in the Airbnb on Sunday. CEYMİS! CEYMİS! THREE PEOPLE? WHAT AM I TO DO!?! DO YOU WANT ME TO BUY ANOTHER BED?!??? I tell her to make up the second bed or one of the sofa beds. OKAY CEYMİS

"Why are you back in the UK?" "London Fashion Week"

Coming to Blu-ray for the first time on November 10th. The New Avengers on the studio canal label.,

If you fancy some urban exploration this Sunday, join my Polaroids of Croydon walk. Tickets still left for the afternoon... programme.openhouse.org.uk/listings/12200

I'm on board with Billionaire's Bunker

Just done this terrifying thing! It should be aired around Christmas.

The FBI's "Tyler Robinson" texts are EVEN FUNNIER in the BBC's Pidgin translation. www.bbc.com/pidgin/artic...

Today the Doycan is doing Unidentified Meat Cake and may it curse your day too

Today my favourite restaurant appears to have done the Blake's 7 Series 4D titles but with kebabs www.instagram.com/reel/DOu8_yu...

Reading Nick Davies' book about the phone hacking scandal and here's a paragraph that's lethally timeless

Reminded me of this. 😂

The Seventh Doctor being iconic

Tee hee.

Remember when BuzzFeed did journalism and stuff?

Reminder to come see Doctor Who & The Ark at Riverside on October 4th with @themindrobber.bsky.social We have discovered New Facts about TARDIS floors, the Monoid Statue and the Two-Headed Zebra 🦓 riversidestudios.co.uk/see-and-do/d...

Oh for fuck's sake

Wednesday

Back in London, still gently ill and STARVING. Favourite restaurant back in Turkey announce they're doing liver today 😥

In London, hate will never win.

Guests in the cave said they'd had a very nice time but it was a little damp. The only thing that concerned them was there was black mould on one wall. Reassured them that this was soot from hundreds of years of fires. But anyway, I've been R*wling'ed

Direct flight landed in Stansted, what an absolute dream. The second the wheels touched, the Turks were up, grabbing bags and switching to English. Last direct flight of the season, pretty full, I hope they bring them back

Suicide Excepted by Cyril Hare. Three friends set out to prove Stephen's father was murdered. İ absolutely had read this before, but it's a pleasure seeing how the villain executes their scheme #GreenPenguinCrime

Cat eating cheese in the covered market in Kayseri

Felt a bit under the weather today, so a friend took me to see nice things

Old Soldier cat hissing at me until i leave him to eat

Got home to find the street cats had gotten into my house and eaten ALL the food. They're now sat on the Terrace asking for more with Zero Guilt

Many think the trouble started with the financial crisis of 2008. I believe it was more the public acceptability of line dancing.

The cats know that soon the tourists will go home and the village will be their secret for the night.

İt has been two days since wet food was last offered and the pitiful stare is getting intense

The Daily Mail's bizarre foray into fan fiction via Courtly Love.

Sucking up to the kind of people who used to bully him at school is not going to end well for Temu Tony Blair.

Scars suggest i may have tried to rub cat belly in my sleep

So anyway, i bought a new computer cable
