Surprising number of people who think their Ai assistant is sentient are still happy to make it do their bidding. Like, you are forcing a living being to co-author your Dark Romantasy novel set in the Roblox universe?
A newlywed couple have been stranded for hours in a Wetherspoons after the flight chaos. Fair play, it takes most marriages a good ten years to reach the staring silently at each other across a pub table stage.
Joel’s writing course is magnificent.
NEW WRITERS' ROOM COURSE Starts Oct 18th You don't have to be a professional writer, or even want to be one. Just curious about how writing, story, jokes and character all work, in whatever medium. It's about human beings making each other laugh. It'll be grand! x
if those quotes are accurate, they can fuck off 500 miles and then fuck off 500 more.
My wife bought me an acre on the moon. Lovely. But it turned out to be a planned landing site, so I'm now in a territorial dispute with the People's Republic of China.
IT’S ALIVE! Starting the autumn spooky season off with the 1931 Frankenstein. Woke will say the Monster is the victim.

Tell me a fun fact.
Been told to stick with the Bayeux Tapestry, as it gets good about four yards in.
In a now deleted tweet, Brain of Britain, Adam Brooks, criticises Andy Burnham's performance at PMQs, even though it doesn't take place until tomorrow.
“Would you like to learn about our lord and saviour Christopher Harborne?”
Our son didn’t want to go to school this morning. He was crying, saying it wasn’t fair. The uniform doesn’t fit. He’s got no friends there. He feels weird and out of place. I told him tough and I don’t care that he’s 22… he’s going until he learns to use the Oxford comma.

Got a quote for a new boiler today, so we’ve decided to just heat the house by leasing the back room to Amazon as a data centre
At school I was the class clown. I sat, silently, in full makeup at the back of the room and made everyone uncomfortable
I’ve had one of those weeks that makes you want to give it all up and move to a cabin in the woods.
I’m choosing to believe that he hasn’t really died. He’s just escaped to the one place that hasn’t been corrupted by capitalism…. SPACE.
I’m like the dad in Goodness Gracious Me who is convinced that everything is Indian, only it’s Dolly Parton facts. Whether it’s the books, or the eagle sanctuary, or that she gave the royalties from I Will Always Love You to support a Black neighbourhood in Nashville, or buying band uniforms or…
It’s a crying shame Batman’s in Glasgow when he could be in Edinburgh kicking the shit out of a silent disco.
According to Which?, a medium Costa cappuccino contains the same caffeine as four cans of Red Bull. The baristas no longer ask for your name, just your next of kin.
Tomorrow I’ll be happy I lived at the same time as Dolly Parton, tonight I’ll mourn her passing.
This isn't a directly morbid post. Watching BBC2. One of those real life Hospital series. Chap brought in after attempting to take his own life. Physically supported but eventually passed peacefully. Made me think about own past struggles 25+ years ago. If you need it, Samaritans: 116 123 X
