Phone autocorrected “hole” to “Joel” and now I want to see the sitcom “Joel In The Space-Time Continuum”.
Good-faith concern on this issue would be going, "hmm, professional sports leagues should probably have some standards in place to ensure trans competitors aren't getting an unfair advantage," googling for 5 minutes, realizing every sports league already has those standards and dropping it.
i don't believe anyone has "good-faith" concerns about trans women in sports in 2026. there's been too much time to hear the actual evidence, the actual people affected, and the role the debate plays in attempts to purge trans people from American life. anybody picking that side has made a choice
The UK Government should nationalise it and commit public money to a DS9 remaster
If Paramount is forced to sell Star Trek who would you prefer to buy?
I genuinely don’t know what to write. I’ve tried multiple pithy comments but they all feel hollow. I’m just tired of obvious weirdos and arseholes having thriving careers despite clearly being awful to women & girls, having multiple allegations over decades. I’m sick of it.

Coming up in the next episode of 8-Bit Back Issues... Why is @robbotron.bsky.social pulling this face? And WTF is he holding??? All of these questions answered in August's episode of 8-Bit Back Issues. (Available from 8 August)
Answering clickbait captions on videos: No, the iconic line in the movie wasn’t improvised Yes, you can still make comedy like this now Who gives a fuck if I agree? I’m not joining the turds in your comments I’m not giving you a love heart based on a survey question, you haven’t earned love
Incase anyone wonders why doctors moan about their conditions: I'm in a training program, I don't know where I'm working in 10days time. Which hospital? Which specialty? No rota & no-one to ask cos no-one knows. Can't plan a holiday or to see friends, could be on-call. It's SUPERB for the menty H
no. NO. i will never unclench my jaw! you are just jealous of my powerful mandible! for every "gentle reminder" i read, i will clench my jaw even harder!!!
Wile E. Coyote, despaired, takes a bucket of paint and a brush and paints a beautiful two-bedroom house on a mountainside. He paints a beautiful coyote wife in the window, and two adorable coyote kids running around in the yard. He tries to enter this new coyote life, but it is inaccessible to him
the pandemic was/is a portal. we could/could still have a better, slower, caring, albeit different kind of life. but the ruling class imposed the past upon us and forestalled the future and mired us in a sick, burning world.
eichmann sips a turmeric latte as we sit outside a chic buenos aires cafe. “in retrospect,” he acknowledges, “things got a little out of hand. but you have to understand, we were just trying to do something different. i guess we should have expected some pushback”. talk then turns to his new album.

“Before you embark on a journey of revenge, dig two graves.” Thanks for the advice, now the neighbours are concerned I’ve dug two graves in the yard. Also I’m very tired and I’m pretty sure I hit a water pipe. Gonna find whoever said this and dig a third grave.
Ahahahha I’m listening to Ode To Joy and just as it kicked in Spain scored a goal
Football yobs on the train usually suck, but not today. No noise on this train. I can tell who’s watching the football, they’re the ones who look almost catatonic. God bless you, World Coma, long may you reign.
My partner being very funny and wise about football, banter, class, the UK and life in general. Have a read! roisincaird.substack.com/p/why-its-ve...
Why it's very important that Scottish people never, ever support England in the World Cup
In July of 2021, several of my friends came out with a surprising revelation.

Humbling moments #987 I was describing the new snack I make to my partner. “I get a packet of honey peanuts, then put blueberries and zero cal sweetener on them.” “Cereal, John. You’ve invented cereal.”
Just remembered 1st time I heard the toast, “Cheers, big ears!” The bloke who said it disliked me and was such shit company I thought it was a weak diss! He also said “Shotgun” meaning he’d get to sit in the passenger seat. Turns out “rocket launcher” and sitting there anyway isn’t the answer.
They force-feminized all the World Cup players and now it’s called the Girled Cup. They did this due to woke and gender. The sport is called footovary now too sorry. Girled Cup
Forgot to post at the time but was amazed last night by @robbotron.bsky.social's extra length bumper edition of the Dark Room where he somehow made 20 minutes of tech support entertaining. And then a wild @mattgrayy.es appeared, only to die of smallpox. RIP.
