Someone has dressed their baby as a pope to meet the Pope and I can't cope.

It really is such a con that if you don’t the washing up, the washing doesn’t get done. Ridiculous state of affairs, who let that happen.

Having now seen Wuthering Heights I can now say that everyone who hates it is a nerd and everyone who likes it is a jock and I’m in my jock era.

Heard an interesting discussion of this on a podcast (ironically) - that in the US a podcast production isn’t covered by union rules, so creating a chat show as a video podcast is cheaper…

New Downing Street chief of staff? Alastair Campbell AND Rory Stewart, sharing the role and continuing to do the podcast.

I’ve decided the hottest take on the Wuthering Heights film is to be earnestly looking forward to it in a very normie fashion, thus rising above all discourse. I think it looks like it will be fun :)

My bold plan? Move royals out of either Buckingham or Kensington Palace and move parliament there, then it’s in a historic building but already secure.

I think at this point the UK has accepted Paddington as the Death Bear, collector of souls. So, I think as a nation we should start smearing marmalade on the eyes of the dead and whisper β€œfare for the crossing”. It’ll feel weird now but, in three of four generations, no one will question it.
