Celebrity Traitors proving once again how easy it is for powerful white men to hide in plain sight.

At this stage Jonathan could be wearing an “I am a Traitor’ t-shirt, walk around whistling Murder on the Dancefloor and vote for himself at the roundtable and still no one would suspect a thing

Oh, they’re doing the “it’s a cult” thing, now.

Should we create a bingo card?

Are the right ok?

This is next level of "journalistic* " slop.

The artist known as Zack Polanski so am astute communicator. His voice is fluffed in a lisp. Glib radicalism of the rampant egomaniac.

The true essence of modern capitalism is paying extra for a ‘priority’ service that takes even longer than the regular service

With the week ‘Prince’ Andrew’s been having, it’s increasingly likely that ITV will snap him up for the next series of I’m a Celebrity

The reason most pitches are lost isn’t because the team were bad, but because they listened submissively to the loudest, most confident person in the room

I’ve studied people long enough to know that sometimes it’s not “imposter syndrome.”

Sometimes you’re just not as good as you think you should be, and the volume of praise you received as a kid outweighs your capacity to improve.

I saw this on Sunset Boulevard yesterday.

I’ve seen these Netflix ads on social media so much that it genuinely felt like I’d spotted a celebrity. 🤣

According to ancient myth, every time you sneeze it’s a demon leaving your body.

Which is why people who sneeze two, or three, or four times in a row are actually more evil than the rest of us.

There’s more demonic energy inside of them to expunge

All future parents should be forced to take an exam before they have kids to prove they’re capable of raising a human being.

The reason this doesn’t exist is because most people would fail

If this is a trial run to see if women can go and live on another planet while men get some therapy, then I support it

This is my impression of consumers on April fools day

Amy Charlotte Kean @amycharlottekean.bsky.social · Apr 1

You know what’s sad?

A few years ago on April fools day all these brands were out there going “woo hoo here’s a silly prank let’s have some fun!” and everyone on the internet was like “🤮🤮🤮 🤮ugh how cringe” and now hardly anyone does anything.

Be creative. Be cringe. DO PRANKS FOR CRYING OUT LOUD
