Absolutely thrilled to say that Aaron (@waarontear.bsky.social) finally got engaged!

He only went and made a whole RPG full of our in-jokes and references over the last 8 years, and after beating the final boss I was rewarded with this lovely proposal. Very us 🥹
Forgot that Americans have a pre-Christmas and thought Lynda Carter suggested turkeys need a month to defrost
It's that time...
Put your turkey in the fridge to defrost! Now.
You're welcome!

Was very pleased to join the Greens recently but I'm already tempted to cancel my membership on account of the fact the local party just RANG me. Out of the blue. So out of touch with what young people want.

Not me getting this coming up on reels already

Does anyone know a Sam McCormick?

Got a call yesterday from a studio in London saying he nominated me for a photoshoot?

I did go on 1 date with that name in Sheffield ~10 years ago. Came back to mine and left with my Calvin Kleins and left me some Next underwear then ghosted me so doubt it's him 🤣

There's bound to be a gay porn parody Wicked by now, surely?

"Dicked" is right there

Incredible scenes on BBC Look North.

The best bit of Wicked: For Good was the post-credits scene when Samuel L Jackson tells Elphaba he's assembling a team and then it cuts to "Elphaba Will Return"

I like my men like I like my irn bru.

Picked up in a batch once a week with enough to last me the week.
I like my men like I like my videogames.

Easy, with not too much open conflict and an interesting backstory. 😅
I like my men like I like my duvet.

Wrapped around me.

I know everyone's sick of hearing about my weight but ages ago I lost weight then got stuck, then tried ozempic and lost another stone, then came off ozempic and put most of that back on and got stuck again

Anyway now I'm at my lowest I've ever seen without ozempic, i.e. I got unstuck 🙌

*twenty* whole British pounds for a poke bowl at a restaurant tonight. Twenty quid for a salad where the chicken was just seasoned and some mango for colour.

The country is broken.

The rumour mill was suggesting we'd get an announcement in November and last night Gaga performed Summerboy and said "I'm gonna have a European Summer".........
Seeing rumours that Gaga is going to come back to Europe for a stadium tour of the Mayhem Ball and I'm going to die

Just once it would be nice for the news day to produce a headline like "Labour set to announce plans to abolish billionaires in bid to win over the youth" and not "Reform's Richard Tice is very happy with Labour's immigration policy"

No idea how much Google spent implementing an AI feature that just copies the word above it and recognises -2 is cold, but I want my £1.99/month for more storage back
Honestly don't know what I would've done without the AI weather report. If only there were other ways to get this level of detailed information in one page

Name 4 dormant/dead franchises you want to be brought back!

I've watched that video of Cynthia Erivo pushing the crazed fan off Ariana Grande a hundred times. She is so quick. Does not hesitate for even a second. She's ripped the man's soul out before security even look up. Incredible.

The one thing that upsets me is that it's a potentially very popular move that creates even less space for physical games. My primary reason for being a console gamer is playing on the living room couch. My secondary reason is for continued access to physical media. 😬
Not much of a PC gamer but the Steam Machine effectively being a console you can use as a PC, while being even smaller than a PS5 feels...significant?

Could the next big leap in console gaming be...turning them into PCs as well?

Could Steam Machine do for consoles what Switch did for handhelds?

Gaga just revealed that she had a psychotic break and had to cancel the Joanne tour after the last show she did.

That was my show in Birmingham. ☠️

For the last year or also I've locked in to 7am gym sessions and it has done wonders for my consistency. But instead of getting tired at work and skipping the gym, I fully feel myself being too tired from the gym to give more than about 50% at work all day. 😬

Just saw one of a gymfluencer being like "let's see if these peanut butter and chocolate balls FUCK or if they SUCK" and then being surprised that mixing peanut butter, honey, and chocolate tasted nice and sweet. Don't know where I'd be without them
As well is the usual shite, my reels now seem to be swathes of gymfluencers trying out "viral recipes" and it's just videos of them being like "let's see if these chicken nuggets made by blending chicken, cheese, and seasonings ACTUALLY tastes nice" and being surprised it tastes like chicken nuggets
