Connoisseur of fine things; comics, theatre, wine, quizzing, cats, sitting down, Björk, good TV, bad TV, hot nerds and equality.

Nobody asked for this. But here’s a thread of outfits I’ve seen Björk in. I think. Some records are… hazy.

Nobody asked for it but here are my rankings on #TheBoyfriend series 2:
⬆️ Jobu
Hiroya
Bomi

Huwei
Ryuki
William
⬇️ Izaya
Joylessly focusing on the past and doggedly persuing things that don’t make you happy are NOT attractive traits. Have some life!

I thought nursing was a “caring profession”?
These people aligning themselves with the right who will defund the NHS and seeing no irony in that? Pfft.

Imagine displaying “your truth” on a platform full of Nazis that only today said some countries could no longer see AI child porn but that blue badge people could still make it if they wanted to.

Honestly kittens are pure dopamine. Krampus and Percy give me so much happiness. 😻
Though TBH; so do my middle-age babies. And my juvenile baby. And my elderly babies.
I guess what I’m saying is I kinda like cats.

“Dear media, I can’t stand the headline "No agreement between the US and Denmark” any longer. If an armed man storms a bank, you don't run the headline: "Robber and cashier can't reach an agreement on money transfer." Stop framing imperial aggression as normal diplomacy.”

Liebe Medien, ich kann die Schlagzeile "Keine Einigung zwischen USA und Dänemark" nicht mehr sehen. Wenn ein Bewaffneter eine Bank stürmt, titelt ihr doch auch nicht: "Räuber und Kassiererin finden keinen Konsens über Geldübergabe." Hört auf, imperiale Aggression als normale Diplomatie zu framen.

Better bone density! Better fat distribution! Stronger muscles! Higher sex drive! More body hair! Improved memory and focus! More energy!

Kinda fascinated by my dream last night - Dubai sex tourism with Terri Hatcher involving VR porn, Eurostar, and me forgetting to pack shorts.
My brain was really scraping the barrel.

What would be the thing YOU revealed about yourself halfway through The Traitors in an attempt to make yourself look cleverer than you are?
I think mine would be, "I've kept this to myself, but I'm actually an author of popular non-fiction. So I know a thing or two about... the truth."

I love #TheBoyfriend but putting in an Olympic level athlete who speaks 4 languages and is working on his PhD seems… hard to compete with.

There are some people I just do not want to be queer. Tommy Ten-Names is one of them.
If I ever see a man or a trans or NB person sucking his horrible little dick, I will slap it out of their mouth.

To take feel like I’m taking some control over current family drama (even though it’s literally impossible to “control”) I am now gonna be spending my Friday evening in a glamorous Premier Inn by junction 36 on the M62.
