Watching Jacques Cousteau's The Silent World (1956) documentary and it starts off great and then.. 1. We have to dynamite these coral reefs for science! :D 2. We hit a whale with our boat :( 3. Sharks attracted to the dying whale >:( 4. We killed the sharks "to avenge the whale" :D Incredible

Just apologised to my flatmate because my pasta was screaming 👍

Last year I found out I'd been at 7 on the pain scale for 2 weeks, when apparently I should've been on morphine! The more you know etc

"AHHEEHAHOAHAAHHH!" ...is the noise I just made because I am very excited about this 🤩

There's some sort of huge inflatable obstacle course going up in the Meadows, at one corner two men are slowly making a muddy bit in incredibly lacklustre fashion, next to a sign that says 'GO COMMANDO!'.

😂 The Jetsons lied to us

'In my day we enjoyed the sun' yes it was considerably cooler and also you were seven and your mummy done you a paddling pool

and Earth, which was not engulfed by the expanding fireball of the dying Sun.

"Young James and Edward have now been claimed, and I am starting to feel a dreaded throat tickle. Mrs. Cooper, bless her, dropped by with jellied eels and swore to their restorative effects, saying how raw jellied eels had so many more benefits than pasteurized jellied eels."

Just got so drenched in the rain that people were staring at me from their cars like I was a tragedy

Attempting to make a better 'about me' page, I have just described myself as "163cm long and non-venomous".

I was digging around on wikipedia today and happened to come across this very good painting of Fancy Men Bamboozled By Egg

Walking around Edinburgh today is like trying to get to the shop through soup. It's brothy.

Every so often I like to check up on what Swampy's up to. It's important to keep your finger on the pulse of current events

I really like the maptap thing, but sometimes when I'm navigating to the place I need on the globe, it decides that I've tapped already, and then it's laughing at me, "you think Russia is in the SEA?? RUSSIA? In the SEA??"

This is what we like to see ✊🏾 And on top of this, Glasgow and Brighton also chased fascists out their cities today.

I am having a very Whimsical Problem: every morning between 4-5.30am, I am awoken by BUMBLEBEES. They come in through the window, I have to help them out using a framed picture of my grandma (RIP). I've started going to bed at 9 so I get enough sleep to help bumblebees out at 5am.

Suspicious side eye from me at Yougov (IYKYK)
