The most stressed out I've ever been about Christmas was when I was 16 and I got my first ever job, working at M&S in Dundrum. As soon as I started I kept hearing these myths about the Christmas Eve Waste Sale, where all the food that wasn't sold on the 24th was marked down 90%.

Watching Project Hail Mary has inspired me as an author. I've resolved that, if there is ever a screen-adaptation of Spirit Level, all the Cork characters will be practical effects, done by puppeteers. Not CGI.

is anyone doing a long read on the Cadburys fall off situation, I know it’s about the sale to the US and the palm oil stuff but I wanna read more, are the Cadburys workers sad about it, is it actually affecting profits, it feels like a true symbol of the enshittification era

Looking forward to the bit in the new HP show where the Sorting Hat says 'Slytherin' and Harry says 'please no, I know I'm not a Slytherin' and the Sorting Hat says 'too fuckin bad, you're going into Slytherin, you're just confused'

Just met a friend I used to play football with from Lebanon who told me eight relatives have been killed so far this year. If you think war and genocide are making the world in any way safer, think again.

Suburban Homeowner Starts, Loses Fight With Enormous Jack Reacher Star Alan Ritchson | Defector
For my money, the funniest recurring bit in Amazon’s highly variable action-comedy series Reacher is the use it makes of its main character’s blank, brutal sociopathy. Reacher, in Reacher, is generall...

Solo isn't bad but it does the cardinal sin of prequels where it takes a character and goes "Hey. Look at this guy. All of the stuff we show and say about him implies he's led quite the colourful life. Wrong. All that stuff happened to him in one long weekend".

given the modern conservative fascination with Sparta it's at least a little funny that they've engineered a situation in which Persia is able to level a dramatically uneven battlefield by forcing the conflict into a narrow pathway

We used to go down to Wexford every summer holiday to my Grandad's caravan & there was a random donkey in the field beside it. My parents told me that it was our donkey, called Freida, but we had to keep it in Wexford because our garden wasn't big enough. I looked forward to seeing Freida all year

The vibes lately feel like the two weeks in school before summer where the teachers aren't even pretending to teach any more and are just playing Family Guy DVDs in Maths. Except "summer break" in this case is "fiery nuclear oblivion".

My take is Chappell Roan's security was right to do that. Hotel breakfast is a sacred place where we are all equal. You shouldn't be gallivanting about unless it's to the buffet.
