@garydelaney.bsky.social According to Amazon, people who bought your Pundamentalist book also bought Rock face antiperspirant, the very best of ELO, and Bazuka wart treatment gel.

The cover of the book they're reading looks disturbing. Did it previously belong to Anthony Ainley?

Off the back of one of @paullitchfield.bsky.social What Was on TV That Days, I found this gem: youtu.be/pHpOsWmpGLY?...
And I have to say it's an absolute fucking delight.

I only added Nerys for rule of three purposes. She's probably a juggler. I get a lot of circussy people. There was lots of other Welsh sounding names, but Nerys was the most Welsh. I often get vaguely famousos too, and I probably had Elis before. It just seemed funny this time.

@itsdanthomas.bsky.social I started watching Electric State thinking it can't be nearly as bad as you claimed on @smershpod.com. I can report that i got worryingly far into it - 48 minutes, before realising I have no idea who anyone is, or why I should care, and gave up.

@paullitchfield.bsky.social I clicked something random in my podcast player and found my statistics for the last month. Tbf a large chunk of it will be 2 or 3 listens through of Androids of Tara

@specileptic.bsky.social This week, I wrote a word of welsh in a reply to you and since then Facebook has friend-suggested Elis James, Dan Thomas and someone named Nerys. Coincidence?

Also, I can't speak to Walter Reed, but the usual bank of questions includes "can you tell me who is currently president?" At which point he presumably laughed for 20 minutes and waffled on about all the people who aren't president, for another hour.

They're cognitive tests. So, he's glossed over the "follow my finger with your eyes" test, and how he did in the "how many fingers am I holding up?"

I'm forever making back references to previous conversations and getting blank stares. Even when it's their own jokes... sometimes, I wonder if I am the only person in the world paying attention.

I've watched a documentary and listened to a podcast about her, and I still don't really understand who/why she is...

My dad used to own a woodland, and he never once gathered any firewood. He mostly drank heavily and ate fatty foods. Does that article mention those?

My disciplinary meeting was surprisingly relaxed. The lady was wearing a hoodie, which made me feel more at ease. She smiled lots and laughed after my jokes, so hopefully it went well.

@catiewilkins.bsky.social Happy Birthday. Did you get a cake as excited as the one Ernie had?

I have had this on a loop in my head for hours. The trouble is I only just remembered the correct words, so my brain has been concocting its own lyrics until now. And my brain is weeeeird. Hopefully, now I've listened to the actual song I will be free

Your grandfathers fought in two world wars for your right to wear an inflatable penguin/chicken/frog/unicorn/dino suit.

Don’t let some dweebs who grew up on Call of Duty and Fox Late night intimidate you.

@jonnymorris.bsky.social This week, I am drawing a box. I suck at perspective, straight lines, and text. But other than that it's going ok.

When Chris Moyles was still at Radio 1, he and his team went to Berlin for some reason. And their producer Aled was delighted that there were British shops like Aldi and Lidl there.
