My recent aversion to food has spread to aversion to smells. I hope this is a temporary response to heightened anxiety and will abate once tomorrow is out of the way. No, I'm definitely not pregnant.

Almost did an ADHD thread, but pulled myself back because there are plenty and arguing on the terms of that Channel 4 doc isn't productive. Funny that the presenters pull quote is "these people have real problems but not ADHD". Does treatment help them, though? Then why do the semantics matter?

People think drinking White Monster is rough? Well, £1.85 begs to differ.

No worries if not.

Read it if you can.

it rings most vast, but hollow

Excuse my inserting myself into the narrative, but years ago, Jimmy Cricket added me on LinkedIn.

This seems worth knowing for melatonin fans.

Secure job with good progression potential for a public employer. Some people have just never cared to imagine what life looks like for anyone other than themselves.

Once heard someone at work say "surely if someone loses their job, it just means they have to dip into their savings?". Humility is a gift.

New leagues come and go, but Turkey is forever.

🚨 BREAKING: Mo Salah set to join Trabzonspor on a two-year contract as a free agent. Trabzonspor confirm they have "begun negotiations". Verbal agreement already in place with Salah with the move set to be formalised this week.👑

I feel like I've spent half my life explaining why being poor is expensive to people people desperate to avoid confronting it.

okay now he's gone too far

Last night I popped on a Miles Jupp special, thinking it would be a nice gentle way to drift off to sleep. Regrettably, I was properly snort laughing throughout. And I don't snort lightly. www.youtube.com/watch?v=svu0...

Thinking of ruining the day before a stressful event with worry? Stop right there. You can ruin two, with the simple mantra "tomorrow it'll be tomorrow".

Praying for half decent sleep tonight. You'd think that a previous night of hardly any would make that easier, but it's as if your brain forgets how. I'm coming towards the end of the period where consecutive meds are advisable, so I gotta do me some functioning.

I hope you all reflect on your words the next time you lose a dear friend who is also a self-confessed peadophile.

This weekend's opening match of the season was a post-funeral trip taking in rainbows, a fort and a BLOODY MASSIVE BOAT. unexpecteddelirium.substack.com/p/the-weeken...

The Weekend Match: Newhaven 1-1 Crawley Down Gatwick - Once More in the Name of Love

The start of the new season comes at the end of a period of big change in my life, but non-league football is one constant that helps to keep everything else in line.

Less than 2hrs sleep last night and a highly emotional day. I just wept at the Wikipedia page for the Koh-i-Noor diamond.

I got poorly with nose/throat cancer this year. I had world class treatment and support from the NHS and Macmillan. I’ve drafted in my work lot to do a charity darts marathon in aid of Macmillan Any donations or spreading of the word is appreciated dartsmarathon.macmillan.org.uk/users/michel...

I have never seen a social platform so united as on the death of Rod Liddle. Right across the spectrum on here. Not even the standard self-righteous micro-bollockings in the replies. Imagine what kind of cunt you have to be to stem the high-handed whining on BLUESKY. Remarkable.

Probably offline today to try and focus on some important stuff. Just to mention for those who worry if I stop posting.

Can't get my HR to 160 in the gym, but panic will do it while I'm sitting still.

Unless you're using it as an opportunity for a pin-in-map mini-break, I can't believe people watch pre-season friendlies.

Always said that The Hundred seemed like a daft idea, but I'd watch it coz it was on Real Telly, and, lo, I just flicked the telly on and remarked "ooft, getting twatted then?".

I'm doing more tomorrow than I've done since I started really struggling (it's a nice thing). Cool, good to challenge myself, also scary.

Joke's on you because "socialist" is actually 200 factions of sworn enemies.

well then I guess that's that

Can we get him on Everton's transfer strategy?

wait the discourse today is covid lockdowns again? no, absolutely not, I am not doing this, you all have fun

My friend's son has got very long hair, so when the school called about "an incident involving his hair," she groaned, thinking it was gonna be homophobia. Turned out some kid had called him a "ginger cunt".

I slept for 8hrs. Ot would be unwise and premature to suggest we are so back, but we are so back.
