Had to work an event last week where a member of the royal family was in attendance (not him) and couldn’t help but laugh about the security. Back in the day they would’ve been henchmen with swords but now it’s a few blokes with SIA badges

me: lmao a pig who's a pilot
Miyazaki: sending people off to war either kills them or creates a chasm between them and society they can never fully get over
me: lol *oink oink*

It’s fleece szn boys. If you have a fleece recommendation I wanna hear it

Worst day of my life (Farmer J have started putting mushrooms in their Mac & cheese)

You know what, I quite like Glen Powell

Up.The.Villa.

Won a pair of Rockports on eBay but I don’t actually want them. Can’t even remember making the bid

From the Villa to the sea…

Being chronically online, I’ve started to notice this emoji 👍 has become a bit of a dog whistle

I see the Aston Villa charitable three points foundation is back at it tonight

Want to see something spooky for Halloween? Here’s…a hand in a box 🎃

Idea for a show: I travel to Belgium to see if I’m related to Kevin De Bruyne

Is there an app that can analyse handwriting?

The bedwetting from senior politicians trying to get Maccabi Tel Aviv fans into the country, despite there being enough evidence to prove they’re wrong’uns needs to be studied by sociologists

Asking ChatGPT if there’s a way to make pizza soup

Happy birthday to my mother, who isn’t on Bluesky, or any form of social media, so won’t see this

One day TK Maxx will sell trousers other than skinny fit and it’ll be game over

Woman sitting opposite me on the train here, digging out her eye with her little finger and eating what she finds

Got a poem in Bruiser and they made some sick artwork for it www.bruisermag.com/green_chickens

I can’t say it on *the other site* but Walthamstow’s home and away shirts this season have got to be the world’s biggest downgrade

Witnessed the most “you see that ludicrous display last night” conversation earlier. It was like a men’s mental health advert. Harrowing

Rotten news about D’Angelo. Always loved his cover of Prince’s She’s Always In My Hair from the Scream 2 soundtrack. A contender for one of the top 5 Prince covers, surely! youtu.be/xmwz3ezWg38?...

Wales? Playing Belgium? This, like, never happens

Not for me, Clive

I’m wearing double knitwear and it turns out to be a summer’s day

Been wearing shoes instead of trainers all week because I’m a grown ass man now and my feet have been brutalised. Shoes. Why they all so uncomfortable? Even Clark’s. Got blisters in places I didn’t think possible

Having the worst day (Forgot my headphones)

People admit the maddest stuff if you let them

OLLIE

They let me muck around with some T.S. Eliot first editions at work the other day

Might feel brave enough to wear this out the house tomorrow

I like that part in Jump in the Line where he shouts OKAY I BELIEVE YOU

I'm thinking about (maybe) bringing a second writer into @astonvillareview.com Might not do it. Don't know what the terms would be. But there it is. Shout if you're a broadly interested #AVFC writer with some experience: villa[at]chrisnee.co.uk

Cash money

Sorry, since when did trackie bottoms cost £85? Whole fit will run you near £200

We scored a goal?

I didn’t lower my flag to half mast for a podcaster and now I’m on a list

For my consideration, Laura Dern

It’s been a long long time since I’ve spent money on a trackie but that blue one is never coming off my body

My main question, in all of this, is did it just cut to black? Like the end of The Sopranos?
