I'm going to go ahead and say it: Chikai Bardo was one of the worst episodes so far of Severance.
It was a 50 minute lore dump with almost no plot development.
Sorry, not sorry.

Very excited about our new play!
We could not be happier to be welcomed back by the brilliant PPP team. The whole season looks bloody brilliant so get your tickets booked!

If you bring central London to a halt in order to campaign against catastrophic climate change then you're a "barmy" eco "fanatic" who deserves to be locked up.

If you do the same to hang on to your multimillion pound inheritance tax exemption then you're a brave freedom fighter defying the odds

I'm trying to use Blue Sky more than I did my Twitter but everytime I go to put anything on here I'm suddenly reminded of the fact I have literally nothing of interest to say.

Regardless it's nice to see what everyone's up to

We're always on the lookout for performers for our monthly variety night Blether.

While the night is a celebration of Scots Language the only brief we tell our performers is to consider work that discusses themes of identity or belonging and to speak in whatever language they feel comfortable

It's Friday night, Scotland are playing and I've been locked up finishing a redraft!

Good news is its finished a whole 48 hours early and don't think I've ever felt such a deep sense of excitement to see something staged!

Disillusioned by social media but I thought it'd be a wise choice moving here rather than occasionally checking a stagnating twitter account.

It's irritating that social media is a huge part of our careers and for some reason follower counts affect our employability so follow and I'll follow back

#ScottishTheatre starter pack! If you're a theatre professional in Scotland, comment to be added to it.

Bluesky doesn't have a centralised algorithm like Twitter, so if we want to find each other we have to repost/talk to each other. Likes alone won't cut it, so please share.
