We have opposite feet. I have freakishly high arches. I may be an alien.

Since I gained footwear independence I have stuck to Docs, adding heavenly feet and palladiums into the mix in more recent times. But, I did have one other staple when I was a kid...plimsolls. I've never had foot probs ever. But the plimsolls thing makes me think that footwear might not be a factor.

Do. I have never been there and I shall never be there but knowledge is power.

When you live rent free in someone else's head and you really really don't want to.

It's too late. They already fulfilled their mission. I hope all the levy out people are happy. They bear some of the blame too.

I feel like I shouldn't complain cos it's about 3 weeks later than last year but... FFS. This is my life now til September. Apart from when I'm at the beach.

First real pollen sneezing episode of the year.
Later than last year (last year it hit in February!). Still I'm not happy. Especially since it's still bitter out.

My new motto is don't engage. Really though it doesn't matter whether I want to engage or not...I'm too numb to do anything other than stare at the wall. The worst bit of course is the people who rejoice at my despair. Oh well.

I reckon I'll be able to get a full season ticket next season. Rather than having to share. But if I can, will I...

yeah. Of course I will. โ˜น๏ธ๐Ÿ˜ญ

It's just awful. Desperate times. The worst of it is, I know quite a few Arse fans. Including my two best friends. And will they let it lie? Of course not.

So from the Guardian at the time we have this ... it was popular. Here and in America. A4 was a small channel, 1.9m viewers was a result, for them.

Glee was super popular here and when they started doing live shows, like the kids from fame, they did it here. But that's probably cos we have tons of the right sized venues.

05.03.2026 13:31 ๐Ÿ‘ 2 ๐Ÿ” 0 ๐Ÿ’ฌ 0 ๐Ÿ“Œ 0

Neither the sopranos nor family guy (which I loved) was mainstream here. Glee? Was.

Not in most countries.

Don't stop believing featured in Glee lots of time.

No pet shop boys. Unthinkable.

I was thinking it's probably a function of Spotify just playing what it wants after it finished playing what someone *chose* and people letting it run because the next track might be everybody wants to rule the world.

Is it the one from the Wednesday show?

Me too. I'm not so much in agreement that I should be punished for the stupidity of ENIC though.

Right now, truth be told, I am totally not a fan of people.

For a moment there I thought you were gonna be nice.... We are totally and utterly doomed so I'd abandon that hope and apply it where it has a chance of flourishing.

I'm antisocial. In some ways. The delights of being ND. Lots of people find peopling difficult. Still, I guess that's why I find her vaguely normal.

They don't all look the same. Also some cats are ginger. Some are black. Some are white. All cats are grey yes but only in their minds.

I mean like...going to the dogs. A memoir of a dying 'sport' in its death throes. That sort of thing. Not a book about how to groom them or whatever.

Sunak on the other hand wasn't in any way normal. Smart, yes. But his wealth alone makes any chance of normality a dodo.

Really? That's not abnormal though. It's vaguely normal. Accent on the vaguely but, still. Being shy isn't a crime. Lots of people really give their lives to a thing. I would never have voted for her but I didn't despise her like I despise some of the others.

05.03.2026 12:04 ๐Ÿ‘ 1 ๐Ÿ” 0 ๐Ÿ’ฌ 1 ๐Ÿ“Œ 0

Theresa May was vaguely normal, surely?

05.03.2026 11:18 ๐Ÿ‘ 2 ๐Ÿ” 0 ๐Ÿ’ฌ 1 ๐Ÿ“Œ 0

Loved that. Although the bit where it looks like maybe hector murdered Kiki is a bit...strong. It's possible I imagined that though.
