if you want to come for Matthew Lillard you have to go through me
Lillard was on stage at GalaxyCon in Ohio when he brought up Tarantino's recent attack on his career, calling it "humbling."

A male rock ptarmigan (Lagopus muta) in winter plumage.
Ptarmigan is from Gaelic 'tarmachan' meaning "croaker". The p- was added when people mistakenly assumed it was a Greek word.
A bird forever warning people: "A werewolf!" (just in case of werewolves).

The enemy is always aristocracy. It changes shape to fit whatever society we’re in, but the desire for it is endemic for certain types of people. You must learn to hate it as much as it hates you.

I regret to have to announce that I just thought of this again and the words “look at him twerking” came into my head, so I’m going to be screaming into the void for a few days if anyone needs me

For what it’s worth, I think the most urgent thing the government should be doing when it comes to mental health is ensuring anyone who needs it has access to timely support and (if necessary) the type of positive interventions right for them - whether that’s rest, talking therapies or medication.

If you can find one (some branches of M&S have loads of them and some run out quite quickly) I can fully recommend getting one of their Big Tins of chocolates. It is HEAVY. Obviously I haven’t got into it yet, because it’s on the Christmas shelf in the cupboard, but my god the weight of it
PUBLIC SERVICE ANNOUNCEMENT: M&S' £12 "BIG TIN" of chocolates is exactly how you remember Quality Street was as a child, i.e. it's actually a big fucking tin full to the brim of chocolate and not a half-filled plastic tub of sadness

I don't know if anyone else gets anxious about phone calls but a little tip I've learned is: if there is a phone call that I don't want to make, before I start dialing the number, I carefully hold the phone in my hand & toss it gently into a lake. I hope this advice helps others.

This is really upsetting. I’ve always loved how welcoming and inclusive the WI managed to be - it’s always just got with it without fuss. I know this is a position they’ve been forced into (just like the Guides have been) but it’s a huge step backwards, and deeply saddening.

Exclusive: CEO says decision taken with ‘utmost regret and sadness’ after supreme court ruling on definition of a woman
The Women’s Institute will no longer accept transgender women as members from April following the UK supreme court ruling on the legal definition of a woman, the Guardian can reveal.
Melissa Green, the chief executive of the National Federation of Women’s Institutes, said the organisation had taken the decision with the “utmost regret and sadness”, adding it had “no choice” but to exclude trans women from its membership. Continue reading...

Instead of going on an exercisey sort of walk this morning, I went for a lovely four mile stroll along the wilder bit of the canal. There were leaves on the water, and there was blue sky and the smell of woodsmoke from all the barges’ stoves. A cormorant flew over my head. I’m so glad I went.
