Now I am become Bluesky, the destroyer of Tweets.
Really like the idea that the guy whose picture is used on the Wikipedia article for “forehead” just had his photo uploaded by some mates and now they mercilessly bully him and call him “Wikipedia Forehead” and stuff.

People tell you that you shouldn’t weigh yourself every day but sometimes I weigh myself before and after doing a poo and check the difference.

I keep seeing talk of how weirdly prescient Her was now that we’re in 2025 (the year in which it’s set).

For me, the strangest thing is nothing to do with AI, but instead how it appears to have correctly predicted the resurgence of the moustache as a mainstream fashion trend.

What kind of summer are we going to have this year? My vote is for Switch.

A pair of absolute kings.

Important things happening over on Letterboxd.

Just a reminder that A CAB includes Travis Bickle.

Really hoping the monster has a funky goatee in Guillermo Del Toro’s Frankenstein.

I’m going to attempt to log each time I quote something throughout 2025. I want to see how much of my day-to-day vernacular has been absorbed from pop culture.

To start, I just caught myself saying this in response to a video of someone eating fudge with a slice of cheese.

If you want to really understand how severely Warner Bros. is struggling right now, 2024 is the first year we didn’t get at least one new straight-to-video Scooby-Doo movie since they started making them in 1998.

Finally finished my stupid reading challenge of 52 books in 2024 (aka one book per week).

Goodreads is dumb and counts short stories (as well as when you give up on a book you’ve started) towards the total so it thinks I’ve been finished for months.

Fuck’s sake

Me for the next 27 days now that my listening won’t contribute towards a Spotify wrapped.

Not sure I like Spotify explicitly calling me out for having a brat summer like this.

A woman once came back to mine and insisted on playing an all-Billie-Eilish playlist while we got busy. She didn’t understand why I started laughing when that song that features loads of clips from The Office came on. How are you supposed to keep the mood going during The Scarn?

How’s your day going? I just realised that “the WICKEDly talented Adele Kazeem” was a reference to her role in Wicked.

I’m reading The Bible. It’s a sincere effort to educate myself and expand my horizons. I’ll be reviewing each book in God’s long-running series as I go 🧵

Sorry everyone but this is the actual greatest opening to a book of all time.

Instagram absolutely nailing trying to get me to redownload Threads.

Whenever I picture the Georgian era I imagine everyone speaking beautifully eloquently like in classic romantic literature. When I picture the Elizabethans, I imagine them sounding like Shakespeare. Do you think people in the future will think we all spoke like people in Marvel movies?

The problem with audiobooks is you don’t get to walk around carrying a copy of Jane Eyre so that people think you’re deep and interesting.

I’m a feminist and that I means that I detest women’s football equally as much as men’s.

Every now and then I remember that the literal English translation of Pikachu is “Thunder-Squeak” and it makes me feel warm and fuzzy.
