Jaws very much stands up to release, and as ever ends with Brody, Ellen and Hooper in Amity Island's first ménage à trois.

The most unrealistic thing about the Jurassic franchise is the idea that everyone just gets bored of dinosaurs within 40 years of them being resurrected (and rampaging) that the Natural History Museum has to close because no one's interested any more.

The celebrities swimming with sharks show is just really making me want to get back into SCUBA because I'd love to dive with hammers.

My most annoying trait at my new job has to be my insistence of using the 🌊 emoji when emote reacting to people signing in and out for the day. (It's a wave. I'm waving hello.)

I will get my ears pierced for the perfect pair of Staffordshire Dog Figurines earrings.

The 'have a cry, you'll feel better' people have a lot to answer for. My face hurts, I've got a headache and another five hours to go at work.

Just watched 21 minutes of Lucky Day which somehow recorded with music and background noise, but no dialogue. Thought it was a stylistic choice before deciding to just check on iPlayer and... Nope, spoken dialogue all the way though.

The best part of any massage is when they randomly start hitting you. You never know when it's going to happen and then it's tambourine time. 🪘

"Yeah, I don't think everyone would be routing for you." It's true, but it shouldn't be my mother's response to me saying that I don't think I'd be a sympathetic character if I were on #RaceAroundTheWorld.

The thing about watching Who Do You Think You Are is the desperate desire to have a proper family tree on a scroll.

I am permanently disabled by a pedalo accident.
What's the stupidest way you've hurt yourself?

Oh I'm so glad you asked! I knocked myself out with a frozen bag of omelettes.

If I can convince the people at the fracture clinic to let me have a picture of my x-ray (last time they said no because of GDPR, wait, it's my ankle?!) I'm going to embroider a matching pair of breakages.

Petition to stop voxpops because all it does is uncritically reiterate misinformation without educating - making opinions based on misinformation self-fulfilling because, well, it was on the news.

Having to ask for people to move their bags so I could sit (of 6 chairs, 3 were occupied by bags) versus being asked to move out of a priority seat so someone else can sit. Is my walking stick invisible today? Am I?

@ohgodwhatnow.bsky.social I don't know about any other patrons, but I definitely think that today's extra bit is worth being on the public feed, important worries about fascism and remembrance and the current climate.

I was introduced to the Cave of Swimmers by a @miniminuteman.bsky.social video, and what can I say, it stuck.
