Honey, just when you thought it was safe to go back outside… BAM, THE SEQUEL!
Getting to listen to a new GaGa album on my deathbed.

How lucky am I?!

There’s nothing more satisfying than correctly answering a Jeopardy clue that nobody else can guess!

Quiz me!

Sorry that I let my BFI membership renew annually, mother dear, I didn’t have dying in March 2025 on my calendar!

Come to think of it, what if Blaze has been stealing the floor cleaner to create content for her Crimesborough podcast. I mean, what are people tuning in for now that Hellfire Holly is over?

I do so hate the merchandisification of the Matt Smith era, though. The day they stop waving around that sonic dick we’ll all be happier (I imagine Capaldi said I’m not doing that shit)!

I feel like I should say “aside from the Neil Gaiman episode” but Surrane Jones is cracking in that episode. Ignore the fact the doctor wants to fuck his car, of course the Tardis looked and sounded like that with how many British ladies the doctor brought inside her!
February 21, 2025 at 2:22 AM
Well, we did it. We got past THAT episode. Even aside from its content, it’s the worst episode of the Matt Smith run so far. All that build up with 7 great episodes, only to come back with that. Truly awful, punishable by guillotine if you ask me! Anyway, it can only get better now, right… right?!

Oh look, an Ugly Betty rewatch podcast. Come on, Ellen DeGeneres, give us the Ellen rewatch podcast. Your standup career is not going anywhere! Remind people why they used to like you, and in the pantheon of bad people in the world currently, Ellen is small potatoes!

Whilst we’re on the topic of Fallon, I get that she’s just written to be a Cousin Emily character (IYKYK), but skip to the part where she’s after Leo. It is much more believable she would have come to Erinsborough specially to visit Krista and then fallen for Leo, he’s a very handsome character.
February 20, 2025 at 12:28 AM
I think Fallon was cast purely for the fact she’s sounds exactly like 2004 flavour Mischa Barton. I can close my eyes and I’m right back in The OC!
I know Americans can act because I have seen it
So I am putting all the wooden seeming Americans on #Neighbours down to the accent compared to the Aussie accent

Don’t know where I can boast about this because it’s still early days, but yay I’ve started recording my podcast. All I have to do is not die before I reach episode six and I’ll have beaten Shannen Doherty!

Water creatures legitimately sound like names from a childrens game. Seahorse! Starfish! Goldfish! Catfish! Octopus! Compare it to land creatures, like Orangutan. I’m not taking Pufferfish seriously even though it could kill me. But a lynx, I know to be wary of. Tarantula gonna fuck you up.

Here’s the thing with Finland this year… it’s in the wrong key. It probably will qualify, but I won’t be surprised if it doesn’t. Just the structure of the song in that key makes it more flat and boring than the performance suggests (same thing happened to the UK song last year).

I finished S4 last night. Such an ambitious attempt which both succeeds and falls flat on its face. After such a killer run of episodes (even the one without Donna), to then relegate Donna into the Tardis for the most part, nearly killing her off, then she gets upgraded but it’s kind of overshadowed
February 7, 2025 at 7:44 PM
Silence In The Library is at current my favorite two-parter and part of the reason why I love S4 so much. I had completely forgotten it introduced such an important character and sets up such a pivotal future of amazing plotlines. I only remembered I liked it - because of Donna.

The Sims 4 Businesses & Hobbies is not it. It’s the equivalent of My First Pet Stuff but triple the cost.

They couldn’t even give us car shops. What a complete an absolute utter joke.

I’ll start sharing my opinions of the Doctor Who rewatch I’ve been on since last month (which may take a break when new episodes start up). I watched the 2007 Christmas Special last night which was not a rewatch but a first time watch. Big letdown compared to the previous 2 specials. Didn’t like it.

I’m starting to remember.

The issue wasn’t twitter. It was never twitter. I left twitter at the end of 2019 way before Elon was getting his musk all over the thing.

The issue was the users.

And now they’re doing the same thing here.

The saying this is why we can’t have nice things rings so true.
