Life is a pursuit.

Elegance against ignorance, difference against indifference' ‘Intellect and Romance Over Brute Force And Cynicism’
Love a trip to the GFT. Not just for the lovely Xmas film, but also the conversations you overhear. One year it was a first date nearby; this time 2 West End ladies that if I were @zanyzaz.bsky.social, I’d be sitting here with a notepad & pencil. But there is only 1 Zara Gladman, & she’s brilliant.

The lack of reply is due to my Bluesky use rather than the book. The book I devoured over a small business trip away in March. It’s lived in my mind since & I’ll give you my thoughts tonight on how
A how great it is
B the effect it had on me
C why the paperback coming out in August is great timing
Got this appearing in my kindle account last night. A day of work ahead and then I’m diving into this book.
Really very nice review of #DontMakeMeLaugh in the Observer today. (Please buy the Observer.)

And I owe a really smart friend a book review. This book utterly battered me in the correct places
Of my mind.

That isn’t the review but I’m telling you; what a book

I’m sorry Bluesky. Honestly that other place is addictive. Will try again. Right. Here’s what my next Saturday looks like youtu.be/-27a1ugJX8U?...

As we are nearly in spring, may I profess my love for JC?

Jarvis cocker and pulp are playing the hydro in June and I can’t wait.

Oh and he’s 3 inches taller than the other big JC

John Cena.

What do you mean there is another famous JC?!

@leguape.bsky.social hey man, do you think news/sports/public broadcasters will ever leave x and or branch out on here.

I feel the only reason to look at x is the breaking news/sport/news adjacent accounts I’ve curated on my timeline? Otherwise it’s a cesspit

No way. Tiger Tim’s name isn’t Tim Stevens it actually Jimmy mcgrory. No actual way.

From the reading of it, the us TikTok ban being 19th jan isn’t really that absolute. It’ll be deleted from app stores there, it’ll no longer receive updates for the same reason however access isn’t axed , it’s more gradual than that.

Tad dramatic folks. Also have these TikTokers never heard of vpn

Found it so hard to bin twitter. It’s addictive but feb 1st im gone. Why you ask? Oh yeah it’s Hank Scorpio owning it. Yeah. It’s the vileness. Oh no definitely. Not at all seeing the maddest possible rangers transfer rumour ever

I think the rangers board had their heads in the sand and realised with the Copland fiasco that they needed the ceo/chairman full time. We’ve only just got them. CEO seems sensible and thorough, I fully suspect the football dept review is a way to find a new manager

Right Bluesky I need to start using you and I’m going to talk about football whether you like it or not

Doesn’t the Hank Scorpio rip off that owns that other place and Jamie Oliver look slightly related?
November 17, 2024 at 12:48 PM
Right c’mon folks. There’s always one pal who takes too long realising that we need to evolve. Get your friends across here so we can all ditch Hank Scorpio’s pish

Not at all posting this for any followers in particular
As a short man, 5ft 5in, any time I see a man who is smaller than me when I'm out and about it fills me with an inordinate amount of pleasure. Really makes my day.
