In 2019 I married a man. I won the British quiz championships. I was diagnosed with a degenerative illness. I relentlessly made the news in New Zealand. I fell apart on Taskmaster.

This memoir is the story of how a shy gay Bengali teenager primed for a medical career, changed direction.

Daughter has taken to stomping up the stairs playing Brahms’ lullaby on her melodica. The effect is both less restful than you’d imagine, and also unhelpful for a chap with a sore head.

I think so, thanks. I’ll find out for certain next time I need to order some.

I’d say, from the looks of him, he was in an early line-up of Tears for Fears.

Apparently she’s the editor of Labour List now. Fair play.

Fell asleep with radio five live on. Woke up to hear my ex wife on there. That was weird.

I’m shocked and disappointed that @adamfleming.bsky.social didn’t take the opportunity to comment that Darren Jones had opted to pass the duchy. It is not, apparently, yet known if this took place ‘pon the left hand side.

@darrenpjones.bsky.social : “…it is a private appointment from His Majesty the King to administer the duchy on his behalf. But the good news is I had to delegate those responsibilities quite quickly to someone qualified to look after his landed estate.”

Not saying this is the right thing for you to do, but when a former colleague invited me, on facebook, to “like” UKIP (as they were then), I blocked him everywhere and haven’t spoken to him since. I just decided I didn’t need that nonsense in my life. I don’t regret it.

When did “more info” take on the new meaning “exactly the same info, in a slightly differently-proportioned window”?

Thankfully, the great @Americanfric.bsky.social has the great @ericmgarcia.bsky.social !

Too many discussions of this weird Trump outburst don’t seem to include autistic people.
