Focusing on mutuals this time around, and likely to unfollow without a follow-back. And the rich & famous are out unless they want to be my friend, and even then probably not.

I just unblocked the kitchen sink and it was so disgusting that the blockage crawled out and told me I was the chosen one, destined to lead the human race to freedom.

I’m watching a Christmas movie with identical decorations in every scene, whatever the location. Either they got a job lot on tons of them, or the crew is moving these decorations from scene to scene. It’s actually impressive.
The movie is shite, though.

I’m not a Nintendo guy but thought I’d have a go. First I need to charge up the controller.

Watching Coronation Street for the first time in years and, as usually happens, marvelling at its special charm. Also shouting things like SHE WAS IN JOHNNY BRIGGS!

My first vote was for Labour: Maria Fyfe in Maryhill. Now I can’t even imagine why anyone would vote for them.

Aside from the obvious idiocy of this, it is also the objectively worst version of Judge Dredd, and in that I include the version with a minor character called Judge Pustula.

I finish up my current job in less than two weeks and I’m taking a professional break (all voluntarily). And all I can think about is how many walls I’m going to paint. Bliss.

I’ve started reading the 1980s revival of The Question and it is glorious. I’d love to know why this isn’t revered alongside Watchmen, which was concurrently published. Either way, I’m in love with it and storming through the whole run.

This is on my wall right now, and visible in all my video calls. It’s lovely stuff.
Last new month of 2025, if you have one my calendars it’s time to start singing Muppets Christmas Carol tunes!

Today is World AIDS Day. The White House ignored the AIDS crisis when it began because a Republican (Reagan) was president. The United States is no longer observing World AIDS Day because another Republican (Trump) is president. #Bigots

I’m in a public place and I just saw a lady of uncertain vintage wearing quite an odd outfit, like she was going horseriding later. I shrugged and then I saw a different older lady in exactly the same outfit. Now I’m wondering if they’re a gang or a convention or something. Maybe they’ll fight.

Really hoping Stranger Things does a Game of Thrones and has somebody go loopy and kill everyone at the end.
Wait… that worked for Blake’s 7…

There’s now a whole Netflix category that’s just “movies and shows I really liked and suddenly lost all interest in”.
