Remind me, in future, to never allow non-journalists to be in the room when I'm doing interviews again omg

Here's a thing: I feel like a lot of video-games are really invested in camera/photography, but I feel like I never see people using them?? I certainly never do

Am I just massively out of the loop? Is this a thing you guys all love?

Straight people are lovely and I support them in their endeavours, but I don't want to hear about them or their lives x

Based on the amount of gays I'm seeing complaining about how next year's Hoopla is going to be the straightest ever, and having bought tickets anyway

...

I think we might be alright, guys...

So there were just no Groupla weekend tickets this year or...?

Seeing a gymfluencer with a very good body talking openly about how he has no friends and doesn't speak to his family so he just goes to the gym all the time has honestly healed me so much 🥰

K, I need the potassium to keep up with your shenanigans

Oh don't be so dramatic. That's my thing, and if you take it from me I will kill myself!

Wahoo!

Just got an email saying my 26-30 railcard is only valid for another week 💀👄💀

No offence, but Lorde didn't need to go that hard with What Was That

It's crazy how many people with gigantic suitcases on the tube are absolutely convinced that all the rest of us possess the power of intangibility and can simply phase through them and their luggage

I just ate 31 different supermarket Christmas sandwiches to review them all and I feel incredibly sick 🤢

Just had an offer of an interview with Josh Groban, and had to ask my editor who said "who is Josh Groban?"

So I've just had the opportunity to yell this across the office

No but seriously, me and Patrick are going to a gay Halloween party on Friday night and have ZERO costume ideas so please help us xoxo
It goes without saying that I'd never dress as anything Harry Potter related for Halloween

But can't a man enjoy dressing as Hermany Grinder, the top student at Chogborts while paying NO LICENSING FEES?!?!

Can't believe how many times I've had to explain to people that just because someone is annoying that doesn't make them inherently a bad person
October 28, 2025 at 1:51 PM
I have a real suspicion of people who read/recommend self-help books.

Can't help but think that if you're an adult who needs someone else to tell you how to live your life, you've failed on some kind of fundamental level 🤷🏼‍♂️

I can't do that height thing because I have no idea how tall I am. I spent most of my life believing I was 5'7" then learned I was 5'8" at 24, then became 5'9" when I measured myself in 2021, so the results are decidedly unclear

I was lucky enough to interview War Horse and Kensuke's Kingdom author Michael Morpurgo ahead of the launch of his new book for adults. If you need something to make you smile today, this will do it. He was so warm, so thoughtful, so full of empathy www.telegraph.co.uk/books/author...
Michael Morpurgo: ‘I grew up with the damage of war, just as the children of Gaza and Ukraine will’
The War Horse author on ageing, optimism and why, even after cancer and war, he still believes the world can be a better place
