Jean Luc Godard died of grief. I hope he and Liz are reunited on the other side. Queen Elizabeth II was his true muse and so he followed her into the creative eternal

Just watching the live stream of the queens coffin whilst a company fails to pay me my wages
New fun idea for someone - use old juul vapes and make them a dolls house and pretend they’re a cute little family of monoliths from space odyssey

Five stars won’t make you rich, 85% ticket sales will only break you even. If you’re at the fringe at the mo, please be kind and help my incredibly talented, hard working and hilarious friends save up for their energy bills and therapists this winter

New deep-sea species are Cambrian af. I feel Bamzooki's due a restart
Also shout to my co-writer Sam Rix who is not on this website. Quite possibly the only sane decision either of us have ever made.

It was a longshot that the radiopilot I co-wrote about a UK arms dealer who decides he's the reincarnation of an Akkadian wargod insp'd by a poem from 800 BC would place at all in the BBC Scriptworks but it got us longlisted and a workshop with the inimitable John Yorke.

I snuck a thermos filled with Stella unfiltered lager into a pub the other day because cost of living and now my bottle smells funny, anyone know why this is? What is it that normal Stella filters out that makes my metal, rubber bottle stopper smell sweet-tinged damp?
Cop tv pitch - masked criminal is breaking into peoples houses and swapping their regular with decaf. Yawn epidemic, families split apart and one grieving cop with a murdered nespresso machine stops at nothing. And you can bet a mocha this runs right into the heart of Nestle
Concept Pitch for Wimbledon next year, a new tournament where you play with five randomly chosen dogs let loose on the pitch and if you hurt them you’re instantly sent to prison for a decade. High stakes, cute television

Sunak just knocked on my door asking if I needed a financial consultant but I told him I don’t have very much money to consult on because of him 😞

Is the entirety of Majorca technically the Love Island or does the villa have a moat? Food for thought 🤔

Quite funny if you go on the LinkedIn of *former* Tory mp assistants and staff who in the last year have moved to the private sector… rats on a sinking ship?

This is a political decision. Red meat to their racist base to shore up support for the regime and for Johnson. There is no case for it, practical or moral. It is punishing the already vulnerable in a show of political muscle. Performative cruelty. Evil.

I wrote about how we defeated the Home Office at Saturday's immigration raid in Peckham.
Hope there can be some strategic lessons that can be taken from our experience, for those organising in anti-raid spaces.
