I hadn’t really thought about Boris Johnson for a long time before he popped up again today. It was bliss.

If I ever became a wrestler, I think my walk on music would be Keepy Uppy from the Bluey album.

Remember in the Twitter age when Pizza Express was threatened with 'folding' and 5,176 people made the joke about 'so now it's a calzone'. Let's learn from history. Just nominate one person who gets to do the gag and move on.

Dozens of Pizza Hut restaurants in the UK could close and hundreds of jobs are at risk after the dine-in side of its business collapsed into administration.

I honestly never saw it. I did try searching for it but saw nothing in the past few months under 'calzone hut', didn't think to go back further,

Just saw that Pizza Hut in the UK could be folding. I think that officially makes it Calzone Hut. Eyethangewe. I’m here all week. Try the veal.

What a dirty little fucking piece of shit carrier bag this is. Should be ashamed of itself.

A carrier bag with the words ‘This carrier bag is 100% degradable’ written on it.

For years I’ve been bemoaning the fact you couldn’t stream Moonlighting anywhere in the UK and the DVDs were out of print and stupidly expensive. Well, @christhebarker.bsky.social has made me aware it’s ALL now on the STV app. Have at it.

My favourite is: Jimmy McGovern refreshed the police procedural by focusing on criminal psychologist Fitz (Robbie Coltrane’s career-best role) who gets results despite or because of his own personality disorders. No notes. Perfect. Despite or because of the way that it is written.

This is well worth backing. I missed the first few issues as I was skint at the time, but if you want to read brilliant articles on pop culture and beyond then give it a shot. Check out the digital ‘Best Of’ for free as well!
