Phone case is a bit haggard, let's have a look on Amazon.... "Rugged Shockproof Armor Cover, Heavy Duty Military Grade WITH Kickstand!!!!" Ooooh, can I get it in purple?

They always book @randomhand.co.uk for this show. I'm starting to think they know the promoters y'know....

So, it turns out the Streets of Rage soundtrack fit perfectly between me locking my front door and opening up the office this morning. Making me feel like I've achieved something significant before I've even remembered what my name is....

Had a moment of feeling quite odd in Tesco this morning. Standing in the glow of the fridge pondering which protein pudding to get as "If You Tolerate This Then Your Children Will Be Next" by the Manics played in the background.

@wcwthunderpod.bsky.social After the last episode I couldn't sleep and ending up finding the last five match run of Hail on YouTube. Was a bit surprised that he had a decent enough piledriver as a finish.

Y'know, the main thing I miss about working for Sky is explaining to someone that the charge on their account was a "pay per night" - the response of "well, I didn't buy it" before the slow realisation hits....

Starting the day right, half awake, looking at the Playstation new game announcements at 6.30am and being confused as you swear they said the big James Bond game was coming out for the PS Vita

Nope, there's nothing funny about the poor quality hold message sounding like they're saying "All our loins are busy at the moment" Don't know what you're talking about.

Well, time to buy a new face wash. The question is do I go with the Expert Hydra Energetic, the Peppy Tireless Echidna or the Vigorous Outright Bastard?

Staying in Norway, only one thing to put on the to eh @iammistercarl.bsky.social

Thinking about it, Batman from the TV series had a direct LANDLINE to the police station. There's no way the Police didn't know it was Bruce Wayne....

FILM PITCH: Groundhog Day but with seasonal depression. He doesn't get out of bed till 3pm. Watches TV till it's dark (So many channels playing repeats he never twigs). Then orders a takeaway where the driver has a full face helmet before going back to sleep. This last for at least three months.

Smashed a dish today. As I was sweeping up the glass with my back to an open front door I realised if this was an episode of "Murder, She Wrote" this is probably how I'd go out. Maybe saying "Oh, it's you" before it happens...

Something a bit different from me today... This week, I've been very fortunate to guest on the Jack Murley Sports Show talking about wrestling, as well as being a member of the LGBTQ+ community. Available on Spotify or wherever you get your podcasts open.spotify.com/show/1Y1nfUE... #wrestlesky

"You alright?" "Yeah, I've been asleep this afternoon..." "Ah, the old pre-Wrestlemania nap?" "...Yes. That's EXACTLY what that was...."

anyway here's Chuck Taylor in 2017 saying much the same thing MJ and I say about wrestling shows all the time

How the hell did we as a society get to the point where we’ve decided one of the historically most marginalised groups, trans people, are the cause of all our problems and not the greedy billionaires manipulating everything? It’s the greatest trick the elite have played and they are laughing at us

Trans Women are Women. Trans Men are Men. Disgusted by the demonization of people who are just trying to live the ONE life they have as true to themselves as they can. Sending love to my trans friends. You keep your heads high and keep stepping. Remember you don't walk alone.

So, remember at Christmas when the news has those "they celebrate Christmas EVERY day!" people on. Do you reckon they're still going but they're opening a really haggard Beano annual from 1993 every morning and thanking a skeleton in an armchair they called "Mother"?

Is this the greatest Rowdy Roddy Piper moment ever? Scientists say yes.

Realised last night I'm still on the Movie Theatre Employee subreddit I joined when I was still a projectionist. People are posting the state of their cinemas after screenings of Minecraft. I feel for them so bad.

Went outside and for a few moments there was no people or ambient noise. Sometimes I like to thing that my own personal Truman Show crew are scampering about going "CRAP HE WENT FOR LUNCH AT A DIFFERENT TIME!!!!"

Happy #PortfolioDay, internet. I'm a very amateur, very self taught guy, with an eye to capturing the wild and wacky world of professional wrestling.

I must admit I'm baffled now as to what's happening with The Death Riders. Everyone's fallen, I don't believe that they're waiting for Darby. It feels odd for it to be Bryan. The only person I can think is left is Kingston. #AEW

This morning the alarm clicked on perfectly at the "There's no love, like your love" part of "Everything I Do (I Do It For You). I'd argue that's a bloody epic way to start your morning....

There's a Midsomer Murders stage show coming to Derby in 2026. If anyone needs me I shall be freezing myself until then.

The other day while scrolling TikTok I heard the theme song from The Telebugs on one of those nostalgia accounts. Since then I haven't been able to shift it out of my head. I may have activated.

I mean if anything Mark is a podcast strumpet.

See! It can't be too far away now!

Walking in town this morning. I see a man happily going about his business. he's wearing his glasses then I see he's wearing what I presume are his spare glasses on top of his head. It's funny for a moment. Then I realise "oh, that's totally going to be me in the future" 🤣

I could go on the dating apps or I could write here that if anyone wants me I'll be in my quarters at lunchtime, covered in taramasalata....

Riding the Red Arrow back from a show. There is much singing. As we enter Derby there are yells of "YES! DERBY! DERBY!! DAAAAAAABAAAAAAY!" I feel this wouldn't happen if we lived in Aberystwyth

Not even 10am and I have already succumbed to the urge to listen to "All Night Long" by Lionel Richie. This is becoming a habit.

"Yeah, so have you tried turning it off and on aga.....OH MY GOD IT'S THE ICE CREAM VAN!!!!" *Carl shaped hole in office wall*

At work, I finally get something working again that's been a right pain in the backside. There's no one in the office and I find myself saying aloud "Who's a sexy bastard? YOU'RE a sexy bastard!"

Enough is enough game developers. Where's my James Pond II - Codename: RoboCod remaster? Is McVities holding things up?

What great albums came out when you were 21?

This morning I caught that random third bus operator that only have like, 2 blatantly refurbished 90's Trent Buses. My regular bus went past me and I avoided their gaze. I felt like such a slut.

Derby's had a massive crackdown on dodgy cigarettes. Went to the shop round the corner from work. Soon as I walked in "you want some cigarettes?" "Nah, I'm good" "How about tobacco?" "Still good" "You sure?" "Yep" I'm thinking someone might be trying to shift some stuff quickly y'know.... 🤣

There's only 1 group that can save AEW from the Death Riders

Starting to get adverts for a walking cane that has a built in torch and a larger base to stop it slipping out underneath you. I don't need it, but you had me at "built in torch"

HOB LIVES!!!

The sun is high in the sky. And as the great philosopher @venicon.bsky.social once said.... TAPS AFF!

Our Promised Land Minute coverage has officially begun! This week's hosts are: @rmuldrake.bsky.social @markadamshc.bsky.social @iammistercarl.bsky.social @newpathstohelicon.bsky.social @mattjlatham.bsky.social

This spoke to me.

the biggest shock here is that LDN is still going Sanja Bagga is a legendary cunt who used to pay wrestlers with sandwiches "and not even good sandwiches" said one guy I asked who had worked for him not even butter (allegedly)

AEW IS FOR THE GIRLIES (gn)

My Religion? Bad.
