The most stressed out I've ever been about Christmas was when I was 16 and I got my first ever job, working at M&S in Dundrum. As soon as I started I kept hearing these myths about the Christmas Eve Waste Sale, where all the food that wasn't sold on the 24th was marked down 90%.
My much-needed dose of @cethanleahy.com has arrived.

I’m in Center Parcs. That Wild River Rapids thing does NOT fuck around. I got yelled at by a lifeguard for not going down it feet first. My brother in Christ, I have so little say in any of this

I do love political photoshoots that inexplicably deploy the grammar of slashfic.

Penguin released not one, but *two* books by Morrissey in their Classics line. One was the memoir excoriated by AA Gill, but the other was his novel List Of The Lost, which was much, much worse.

11 years ago this week, I read it so you don't have to.

If you want to kill someone, do it in a car.
Sorry to be a Pedestrian on main but an underexamined bit of Al Jazeera's exposé on TP UK's involvement in UVF contract killing is Allan Nesbitt noting that a kind of murder they can carry out is simply running someone over then downing a bottle of alcohol to receive a shorter sentence than murder

I know a lot is said about Google becoming unusable due to AI but it's been very helpful here. According to Gemini, I should lie on my left side, try to take water in small sips and petition my local Counselor that our community needs a Data Centre

Really seems like a mask slip moment for the skinsuit set. Maybe I'm built different but I do know 3 things I like about my own kids. Fuck it, I held a stranger's fat little baby for 3 minutes last week and I could easily give you 5 things I liked about that excellent little gentleman right now.

On the plus side I'm awake for all the fun Lula news. On the downside it's because I'm experiencing serious food poisoning.

So many of these stories are “I‘ve used AI to outsource loving my children“ and they can’t see why this freaks everyone else out.

Remember reading about "Chitinous hordes of Tyranids" in 40k books as a kid and only learning what chitin was in Leaving Cert Biology at, like, 17.

Up until then, I'd assumed it was meant a noise, like "chittering"

This is not a "you didn't KNOW?" post because I truly envy and respect anyone unaware of Linehan's output BUT he's been EXTREMELY racist for years now. Attacking black actors on his wife's show Motherland as diversity hires; podcast screeds about muslims in Ireland; delighting in Palestinian deaths.
Graham Linehan's issue with the consent ad is that the child in the video is Black.

Yup.

My favourite Hollywood trope is when a movie starts with a flashback of the main characters as children the same age and then their adult selves are played by a woman in her 30s and a guy in his 50s.
