“You said the 2020 election was rigged by either Venezuela or China. When you called that fella in Georgia pleading for 11,780 votes, was that part of the rigging, or part of the 6-year investigation? Just one more thing, sir, who was president while all this rigging took place?”

Dang they really got a category for everything

Usually, if something is deeply damaging and defamatory to an organization you founded, you wouldn't say you want everyone to read it. Rowling is someone who is confident the system will back her regardless of how she undermines her own organizations legal position because of her wealth.

I work with loads of lesbians, who all put me on their Close Friends stories on IG which freaks me out every time I see them, but it turns out females use it to make sure only people they actually know see what they're up to and not creepy weirdos on the internet?! Gay men only use it to show bulges

As if Facebook has to ask if I’m interested in Jack Laugher in speedos.

The new UK Health Secretary reassuring Telegraph journalists that he's transphobic enough for them. Why did he change his mind? Because throwing trans people under the bus is cheap politics for the Labour Party.

I always think people on the tube with personal fans look like Pretentious wankers but I've gone and bought myself a Shark ChillPill and I will be making full use of it on my commute. My celtic blood is not cut out for our new London temperatures.

Calling a by-election over the sovereign right of every MP to take secret gifts from a convicted criminal. What a time to be alive.

A Mini Milk to cool princess down

I keep putting on albums and suddenly realising it's autoplayed a different artists music, because everythings so bloody short. Dagny's Dancefloor Erocia is 11 tracks and 30 minutes long. Anna of the North's Girl in a Bottle is 8 tracks and 23 minutes. My brain needs 45 minute+ albums back.

The Labour and Lib Dem candidates for Manchester Mayor remind me of that one tweet

"LGB-no-T" campaigner Julie Bindel says she'd BAN pride if she could, in order to protect children from predatory gay men. Absolutely fucking appalling. A whole column — "A Pride of Perverts" — going on like this. TERFing really cooks the brain.

The Traveller by Joseph Eckert is excellent cerebral time travel family drama - sort of like Black Crouch does Interstellar.

Still mad that the Jagged Little Pill musical was announced to be coming to London in 2022, but has still not happened 😔

My sister has discovered a stash of old photographs at my grans house. Must be my 90s emo phase.

It’s time for Andy Burnham to do the honourable thing and resign

Found my oldest theatre programme - Chicago in 2001, with Denise Van Outen. This was before the movie so I knew nothing about it at the time.

Really pleased my Apple TV is already showing me a recent pic of Ava in her proof bow, but i hadn’t realised just how grey her face was getting 🥺

HBO Max/Sky/Now have this beautiful Polish gay story, but they only have it dubbed which is painful 😠

I read a review of The Correspondent that gave it 2 stars because the protagonist was unlikeable and mean about her husband. Who rates a book based on whether the characters are nice people?! I've been thinking about it constantly since I saw it a few days ago.

My colleagues start asking eachother what their lunch plans are within 5 minutes of arriving at the office in the morning, but I don't start thinking about where I'm going until 5 minutes after I've left the office and stared wandering aimlessly

The barber had to tissue sweat off my forehead after asking me if I was watching the World Cup 😓 Got the gay fear.
