I made a ko-fi and forgot to tell anyone :D
If you love LMAOnaise but can't pay for a full subscription, I'd love it SO much if you'd consider a one-off donation!
This is also where to order print newspapers now, AND/OR a pdf version to download if you simply can't wait!

feel VERY weird doing this, but if you have liked what I've made and/or done and/or said, please consider sliding me a small cappuccino across the bar?

If money was no object, what would your ideal gallery/museum be? What specific pieces would you like to see alongside each other? What's the visitor experience? What ridiculous things would you spend money on? What nonsense ideas would you want to try? Who would be doing it?

Saying you stand with trans kids, that you believe in inclusion, that you ban them with a "heavy heart" is the most disgusting display of cowardice. Words are meaningless if you say something while doing the opposite.

No Black Friday or AI Tuesday or Sheffield Wednesday, discount till the end of the year!!
There was no Black Friday discount on LMAOnaise membership because we ALREADY HAVE A 20% OFF birthday discount and it runs until the end of the year!
You can get an entire year for 8/10s of the price (I think that's the best way to describe it)
SUPPORT US 🙏

Dynamic pricing is exploitative and theatres should be ashamed of doing it
Dynamic pricing is one of the most exciting areas for future investment in theatre and will help "reach diverse audiences and reduce costs", new research from the National Theatre claims.

I've started using the term "cancel culture" to refer to people cancelling plans at the last minute because this is a very real and annoying issue that affects my life, unlike the other definition of cancel culture which isn't real as people like jimmy carr and louis ck prove daily

Was not expecting to hear the phrase "up to their eyeballs in clunge" in reference to Watership Down but I have to thank @eleanormorton.bsky.social for the huge lol I did
It's time for Eleanor & Alasdair Read That! We're talking Watership Down: a cutey-cute rabbit book for babies. In this month's episode, I become a Male Feminist™ and @eleanormorton.bsky.social sings the X-men theme.
