He takes a lot of stick but I've always been a fan of Mark Selby's ability to dig deep. A man who seems to play his best when coming back from behind. This week has been some of his best ever - some genuinely gobsmacking shots and positional play. He is a deserving winner. 🏆 #uksnookerchampionship

Can't wait for Ally Pally. Masters, baby!!! #snookerloopy #snooker #markselby

@fesshole.bsky.social posts tickle me silly, but sometimes they also give very sound advice

My bin, it runneth over... with used tissues. #stillgross #lurgy

"Say it!" "No!" "Say it, Hans." "My name's not Hans!" "I WILL drop you." “Fine, okay, you win!” “I need to hear you say it.” "Die Hard is a Christmas movie!"

Mark Selby v Shaun Murphy!!! My loyalties are so split. It's like Sophie's Choice! 😬 #uksnookerchampionship #semifinal #murphyvselby #snookersky

Yes. I miss this.

Only post about the things you love. Help yourself and others. 🏆🙏 -E

This thing isn't shifting! Still cough every time I speak and my head feels like it's going to split open! Feels a lot like when I had Covid. Three days off work, cancelled all plans for today & tomorrow (including much needed haircut!)... 🤧🤯😷 Pls send film recommendations! #filmsky #moviesky

Take a break. Go outside. Pet a cat. Do something "frivolous". Spend time looking at pretty things that an artist made. Fondle some smooth and shiny rocks. Eat a really good meal. Engage all your senses and remember that there are good things in the world.

I'm not gonna lie... I am pretty gross right now.

I hope someone draws this wonderful story about Tom Stoppard's Arcadia and the power of the arts to help us see things differently, to the attention of our Education Secretary. Do read it, it will lift your spirits.

Introduce yourself with 5 books you've said more than once you're really should read one day" but still haven't... (they keep writing new ones!!!) 1. The Lord of the Rings (OK, technically 3 books) 2. Frankenstein 3. Wuthering Heights 4. American Psycho 5. The Road 📚 #booksky

Crikey! It sounds bloody horrible out there!!!

Urgh!!! Someone at work has given me the lurgy. Dammit!!! 🤧🥶🥵 I'm not quite as rank as Pestilence from Supernatural but... it snot pretty!

Share a movie you're thankful for:

Trying to eke it out so only at the end of Ep.3. But YAY!!! I was right! 😊 #strangerthings #finalseason #tvsky

I wonder what message my brain was sending me here, then??? 🤪

Did I pick up this Die Hard shirt for my husband today at the thrift store? Yes. 😁

This is both hilarious and tragic: a consequence of living so much of our lives in the digital world that some of us apparently think structures look the way they do because long-ago people lacked imagination, not because of physics and the properties of materials.

Introduce yourself with four spaceships...

23,000. That's how many deaths can be blamed on Boris Johnson's chaotic Covid decisions and delays. Enough is enough, he must be stripped of his annual £115,000 handout. Sign the petition today: act.38degrees.org.uk/act/strip-Bo...

Brexit has caused almost twice as much damage to the UK economy than estimated by official forecasts, according to new paper from a group of experts including a senior Bank of England economist

Word of the day is ‘quockerwodger’ (19th century): a puppet politician whose strings are pulled entirely by someone else.

Wow! Jesse Welles performed his song “Join ICE” on the Colbert Show last night. 🏆

A MASSIVE wasp has just appeared in my kitchen from god knows where!!! Why is it still alive???

You ever think about how beautiful and rare your friends are and stare into space for 10 minutes because in all the wretched terrifying universe somehow something still managed to give you the miracle of their presence?

Here is a picture of a baby otter for no good reason.

Get to know your mutuals... List 10 random things you like: 1. Snooker 2. Curry 3. Cats 4. John Connolly's Charlie Parker books 5. Antique fairs/shops 6. Being by the sea 7. Going to the cinema by myself 8. Daim cake 9. Horror Movies 10. Outdoor gigs & festivals

Schrödinger's flirt: where I am both totally kidding and actually flirting depending on whether or not you're into it.

If your outrage depends on who did it, it was never about protecting children.

It's not shocking to me if he sucked off another man. That's not the issue, it's just homophobia and toxic masculinity. If he knowingly had sex with CHILDREN, I don't care if he sucked every knob in a 5 mile radius!!!

What exactly is the Chancellor going to do?

😀

Me neither. I just get called by my surname.

You had me at "Sam Rockwell". #moviesky #filmsky #samrockwell

YES!!!

Eight child abusers were jailed today. 8 child sexual predators who had been operating in areas such as Gravesend, Gillingham, Swanley, & Margate jailed for a combined 100 years. This managed not to be the top story on repeat for BBC, itv or sky News. I wonder why. #bbcbias #itvbias #skybias

Such a key point about cutting back on language provision - it’s not good for science and it’s not good for growth www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

Nope. We cannot stand for this.

This is and will always be true.

If poor people shouldn’t be allowed to buy junk food with food stamps then rich people shouldn’t be able to buy politicians.

I've been getting back into the Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy series after many years, and the most relatable part is how everyday objects like doors and elevators have been imbued with artificial intelligence and it just makes them obnoxious and frustrating to use and everyone hates it.

I’d really like the media and their voters to start noticing that aside from their politics they’re also fucking useless.

We want the media and politicians to recognise that there is a large number of women who are supportive of the trans+ community. We call on them to report truthfully about the sources of violence against women and to address the systems that perpetuate harm. notinourname.org.uk/petition/not...
