On National Poetry Day, the greatest poem I have ever read

we started making the show at 9am and patreons had it before 4pm - a thirty-four minute podcast full of topical jokes, plus each segment in video AND a bonus forty-five minute q&a podcast (which i edited, in both video and audio, yesterday to be fair). i think it's easily worth four quid a month

Would you be at all surprised to discover that it is STAGGERINGLY BEAUTIFUL This is the music that will play when the universe reveals its meaning to the last being alive. My gosh.

Mavis. A depressed inter dimensional imp that feeds on the one-inch-left plastic jerryccans of antifreeze screenwash that everyone has in their car.

Diwali on the Square returns to Trafalgar Square on Sunday 12 October. As hatred and division continue to be spread globally, I’m proud that this free, family-friendly, inclusive celebration will once again bring people together from all backgrounds to spread the message of unity and hope.

Haunted Hotel on Netflix is genuinely good, eh?

At the Riyadh Comedy Festival, it’s less ‘take my wife - please!’ and more ‘return my wife, please, she is a British citizen and a journalist and her incarceration violates Articles 17, 20 and 39 of the International Conference on the

I'm up in Keswick, Cumbria. There's a lot to love here. ▶️ @sallyhodgkiss.bsky.social being pitch perfect in Di & Viv& Rose @ Theatre on the Lake ▶️ The Alhambra cinema (saw The Golden Spurtle there. 100% recommend that) ▶️ The pie shop next to millet's: best pies i've ever eaten possibly ▶️ The views

You can't joke about anything anymore. Because you signed a multi figure contract with the Saudi government that said they wouldn't pay you if you did.

@drkatedevlin.bsky.social Oi oi Dr K. I have a university question for you, if you have time to answer it. How viable is it to try and get a degree in a year? Like, if i did a drama degree but had fifteen years of working in professional theatre FOR EXAMPLE. Hope you're ace, R

Just watched Inter Alia as part of NTLive at The Alhambra in Keswick. Rosamund Pike absolutely incredible. As the credits rolled I googled the reviews, expecting a sea of love letters, but instead it seems folk rather sniffy about it. Why, I have no idea. An incredible play with exceptional design

Farage wanting to kick people out of the country because they migrated here made me angry and made me think about which best of British people and things wouldn't have happened were it not for the brilliance of immigration to the UK.

I’ve said it once, I’ll say it again. Ignore the haters, London is the 🐐

Anyone under the age of 26 who lived in the UK through 2020 should be given £2,000 by the government in exchange for all they sacrificed during Covid - education, relationships, jobs - to protect a largely ungrateful cohort of entitled elders.

The real rapture is the fiends we left along the way

Print out the word debate, roll it up and shove it up your fucking arse. Since when did debating with unhinged gender critics, conspiracists and hardcore nutcases ever make anything positive happen. You might as well scream into a mirror for all the good posting on the hellsite does.

Very odd watching BBC News talking about the Lib Dem conference and mentioning how the party has struggled to break through in the media like it's nothing to do with them.

if I can give a piece of "theory of change" advice: never never never make a purchasing decision to stay away from a brand for ethical reasons *without letting them know that's what you've done*. they don't have a way to know otherwise. spend 5 minutes and send an email to the company.

“Age verification doesn’t work and it threatens our privacy and freedom. Policies to “protect” kids are often excuses to restrict freedom for everyone. And censoring the internet doesn’t keep kids safe—it actually endangers them more.” EXACTLY @kattenbarge.bsky.social

Fwiw, there is actually a precedent for Disney appeasing MAGA and then being forced to eat shit and renege. So any questions on how to do it should be aimed at the legend that is @jamesgunn.bsky.social

Have Disney pulled the Indiana Jones movies for being mean to nazis yet?

The arrest of four people after this incident is an outrageous affront to the freedom of expression enjoyed by UK citizens. It is a human right we all enjoy and is protected in law. 1/2

Arrested for projecting images of Donald Trump and Jeffrey Epstein on Windsor Castle. There is a mounting authoritarian assault in this country. The attack on opposition to Israel’s genocide was only the beginning.
