I managed to finally finish my book and put it up for sale.

It's NOT a manifesto.

Sweet jesus
On this #420day, we celebrate the 52nd anniversary of performers “Gail & Dale” singing the hit, “One Toke Over the Line,” on Lawrence Welk.

Neither had an idea the song was about pot, and Welk thought the song was a “modern spiritual.”

Crazy times
Ah, happy days - when we were served up a daily helping of comedy ammo.
🇬🇧 Remember COVID? Here's a video we made at the time taking the piss out of the Daily Briefings we used to have to watch.

Since then, this sketch has been selected for permanent preservation in the British Film Institute (BFI) National Archive. #brag

I used to enjoy logging into X on a Wednesday and getting a snarky rundown of the best bits from a number of savage commentators. Who should I be following now we're all here? #pmqs #political #savage #journalists

Please can I have some real followers before this just becomes the bad place all over again.

I'm an aspiring poet, I write short stories. I try and be as compassionate as I can be but understand that this 'us and them' is just 'divide and conquer' for the 21st century.

I don't have a solution, I know there's a problem. Please join me if you feel the same way.

Crazy Taxi was such a good concept for a game. It’s all in the title. You’re mentally ill, and you own a taxi. Sign me up.

A brilliant move. Took me a moment to find out why though... Can you see it?

"Before the chariot had begun to climb
The opposing steep of that mysterious dell,
Behold a wonder worthy of the rhyme
Of him whom from the lowest depths of Hell"

"I come into the peace of wild things
who do not tax their lives with forethought
of grief. I come into the presence of still water.
And I feel above me the day-blind stars
waiting for their light. For a time
I rest in the grace of the world, and am free."

- Wendell Berry, The Peace of Wild Things
