Writer based in sunny Derbyshire, UK. I love movies and food. I'm what right-wingers call 'Woke'. I have a YouTube obseessed son, and a cat called Travis, we battle for control of the sofa.

A few hours of editing done; it's time to settle down for the Oscars.

@tommydwriter.bsky.social has presented us with our first two courses of the evening: 'Gnocchi Horror Picture Show' and 'The Hunt For Bread October.'

Good morning!

In times like these, it’s easy to fall into the trap of feeling like your art is meaningless

But your art has never been more important than it is right now

They really, really need to pin this on Farage. When you think of the 'big beasts' of Brexit bollocks, there's not really anyone else left in the game so it should be quite easy.
YouGov find just 30% of people think we were right to leave the EU. The lowest number yet.

Just 10% of 18-24 year olds think it was the right decision.

Neil Gaiman is a monster. His statement is idiotic and delusional. Sorry Neil, I don’t think anyone believes that 9 (or 14?) women are lying about you, and it’s cute that you think your “readers” will stick with you after this. Several of the people you assaulted were your readers.

Good morning! Stop calling yourself an “aspiring” writer

If you write, you’re a writer. It’s as simple as that

The BAFTA 2025 nominations are out! There's some good choices in the mix, and a few I don't agree with. These are my initial reactions:

I am shocked that The Substance isn't up for Best Film, but relieved to see it up for Director, Original Screenplay, and Lead Actress (come on, Demi!).

If you have leftover bolognese, keep some to make these quesadillas. They are so yummy! Oh and I included my bolognese recipe below.

There's an entire industry of utterly made-up bullshit being pursued at the other place.

Thousands of monetised retweets for a claim that Labour is banning people debating veganism in pubs.
