Really good little guys

Fair.

the rat's out the bag

We should be making so many comedy shows that it doesn’t matter whether you think SNL UK is any good or not, cos there’d be another sketch show you do like. Like we do detective shows.

World rugby: Okay. So you can win this entire tournament Ireland: Okay, great! World rugby: as long as England win their game. Ireland:... World Rugby: So obviously you would want England to- Ireland: -Shush I'm thinking.

Lovely bit of business.

Back on my bullshit #art

Venus is done.

Happy 75th Birthday lad

Set up for a lovely bit of echolalia today.

Interesting to see that a review with 32 experts published in British Journal of Psychiatry last week found no evidence that ADHD is being overdiagnosed www.nottingham.ac.uk/news/no-over...

'Only four in 10 UK PhD graduates remain in academia just over a year after completing their degrees with many more heading overseas for research jobs than in previous years, a major national poll suggests.' 1/3

Can't believe Britsky is making me pre-emptively defend a show that wouldn't give me a job after I spent a day applying for it because you're frightened of seeing a sketch show with people who aren't already famous in it. Comments off bc I know what you fuckers are like.

Dressing up as a fucking massive cockroach for world book day and phoning in sick because I’m a cockroach to see if they get the reference

The debt burden of UK students is one of those things where, the more you look into the details, the more insane and predatory it is. So I tried my best to explain the numbers involved without making my, or your, head explode.

Ah yes, my approach to creating teaching materials

😭

date: can you take off your work gloves Jim Henson: they have names

SATURDAY CLEAROUT! Here are 3 shelves of my books in A-Z order by author. You can have any 2 for £10 (free P+P). Please share (and buy). UK only.

Even sadder than this, I sometimes wonder if my neighbours hear the clinking and assume my life is that little bit more exciting than it actually is.

Pencil-necked desk jockeys at the council in Dublin have forced a pub to take down a 12-foot statue of St Patrick enjoying a Guinness before driving the snakes out of Ireland. Do you want snakes back in Ireland, Dublin Council? Because this is how you get snakes. www.irishmirror.ie/news/irish-n...

Take a moment to admire this close up of a nice furry noble beast that looks like an elongated red panda but in a lovely autumnal auburn. Little ears. Little snout. Isn't it cute. Isn't it very separate from all the things happening.

You can just stomp around the house like a kaiju and nobody can stop you. Treat yo’self.

Just been all middle-aged & grown up and booked a routine prostate cancer screening test, like a ruddy-bloody bloke. /Seriously, guys. If you're over 40 & not done one, consider it. They're relatively inexpensive if booked via places like CHAPS (£20) and screening events pop up all over the place

Kansas has, overnight, invalidated the drivers’ licenses of trans people, a pointless cruelty that upends their lives If Brits think “it won’t happen here” think again! Groups in the U.K. who want the same thing are routinely invited to consult with Labour and normalised in our press!

It's like taking a deep breath after months of drowning underwater

Me: *nothing* Brain *to the Archers theme tune*: I'M A TOT JE SUIS UNE TOT, TILLY TOM AND TINY

So, Roisin Murphy makes the statement that 'no one used the term "queer" unless it was to hurt someone who was gay'. I'm unable to ignore this. The following isn't about making personal comments about Roisin and it's not about the merits of the word, it's about challenging a lie.

at last, we have invented retrophenology from the classic Discworld text Don’t Invent Retrophenology

You just can't trust anyone.

Proposal - when a skater falls over everyone has to stop until they're back on their feet. #Olympics

Mass start speed skating finals - points system is basically quidditch at this point, surely? #Olympics

Ah. So the jokes about them going upstairs in skis are not actually jokes after all. Excellent event. Top notch random combination of equipment and terrain. #Olympics

Usually pretty neutral about the studio presenters but you do NOT get to take the piss out of the cool names these events have given themselves. (Almost as upset about this as I am about the swiss guy falling in the second speed skating heat) #Olympics

Have watched mass start speed skating for approx 20 seconds and it is already my new favourite thing.

Please respect my privacy at this difficult time.

"He wasn't actually arrested for--" WE KNOW. THEY ARE NEVER ARRESTED FOR SEX CRIMES. Society dngaf about protecting women, and women know that. We're just happy he was arrested at all

We have an announcement. S N O W D R O P S ❤️

This is very much why I can only watch ice hockey live. Even then I can rarely see the puck but it does seem to matter less.

I am once again reminded of the time I got a cat really, REALLY stoned on catnip and Googled whether they would have a horrible comedown. The general consensus was no, but more importantly I learnt that catnip is not considered haram.

the comedians who go on gb news like to say that “all comedy has a target”, but my daughter drew this horse on a whiteboard and wrote “hompse” next to it, so she wins the debate

This is the Gov looking for your input on the BBC. It takes a while to complete (15/20 mins) but it’s pretty comprehensive and covers most aspects. Please share. I’m surprised many people haven’t seen it yet. www.gov.uk/government/c...

England really gave us eight hours of sunlight and then said lol alright that’s enough of that

Personally I'll be waiting until tomorrow for twice as many marshmallows

I'm always baffled by parents who complain about having to explain stuff to their children. What did you think that role was going to entail exactly.
