Absolutely thrilled to say that Aaron (@waarontear.bsky.social) finally got engaged!
He only went and made a whole RPG full of our in-jokes and references over the last 8 years, and after beating the final boss I was rewarded with this lovely proposal. Very us 🥹

Started watching Private Practice (that Grey's Anatomy spin-off from 15 years ago) and I'm just so furious by episode two because every single one of these doctors should be in jail for deeply unethical medical malpractice

I often wondered what people who don't listen to Lady Gaga all the time fill their days with and thanks to Spotify Wrapped I am none the wiser because who the fuck are half these artists

The biggest shocks from Spotify Wrapped is that there are 75000 people who listen to Lady Gaga more than I do (I am already top 0.02%), and that Nobuo Uematsu got downgraded this year in favour of Lorien Testard

Wes Streeting on GMB bemoaning striking doctors and laying into any GPs not happy about working conditions then two minutes later says "Labour are more unpopular than estate agents and tax inspectors" and I'm wondering if he sees a connection there at all

William Hanson on Capital there had everyone in fits and I forgot that baseline gay humour is absolutely hilarious to straight people. All power to him for taking it to the bank.

Finished my Sex and the City rewatch. First and last time since I was 20.
I always remember thinking Carrie was insufferable.
Either I've become just as insufferable as I've aged, or I fell for "Carrie was the worst one" propaganda of the day, because frankly she did nothing wrong in six seasons.

Had a little "woosh" this weekend and got under 13 stone again. Haven't seen this weight without either being on ozempic earlier this year, or being aged 20. The Abs for Summer plan is on track!!!
The amount of effort and obsession it takes to lose a pitiful 1lb per week is actually insane
I have lost 4lbs since 1st November (yay tho) and I have had the same meals pretty much every single day to stay in my deficit, been to CrossFit and average of 5 times per week all month. For FOUR pounds 😭

Watched the first episode of Fellow Travellers (finger on the pulse as always) and I have a horrible feeling this is "Its A Sin" for Americans and is going to ruin me

Huge respect to the papers for finding both an 88 year old worried about the tax bill on her 6 bedroom Kensington house and a 20 year old fretting about only being able to save £12k a year tax free.
Top work all around. These are not easy case studies to find.

Very nearly pre-ordered Octopath Traveller 0 on Switch 2 before realising it was just a game key card. Near-miss there. I do not fuck with that.

Feel like the Black Friday shine has rubbed off entirely and now everyone is just temporarily putting prices back to what they were 2 years ago before we got obscenely price gouged by every retailer and them now calling it "savings"

Forgot that Americans have a pre-Christmas and thought Lynda Carter suggested turkeys need a month to defrost
It's that time...
Put your turkey in the fridge to defrost! Now.
