You were having a fine evening. Feeling youthful, energetic. Then you saw Pokémon cards on Antiques Roadshow.

When people say 'live life to the full' they're usually telling you to go on adventures, to say yes to opportunities and to embrace new experiences. But I do think that living life to the full can also mean watching the darts with a cup of tea while the cat sits on your lap.

I wish I could explain to you how cool I thought this game was as a kid. I mean I still think it's cool, but something about the marketing, that logo, and that weird monolithic cartridge which could mysteriously interface with my old games, it just blew my puny child mind.

I think the idea is to make the news so bad that it’s a relief when the power cuts kick in

Oh #WorldMentalHealthDay let's remember we're all human. We can all break a leg, and we're all only steps away from a mental health issue. Nobody is immune. So treat mental health with respect. Be supportive of the suffering, you don't know when it might happen to you.

Not sure whether the subtitles for the #PlatinumJubilee are automatically generated, but they seem to have trouble with the word "prebendaries"
I've been fiddling around with Mario Maker 2 again.

Re : Will Smith/Chris Rock.
It wasn’t a punch it was a slap. His hand was flat, not clenched.
Presumably because Paper beats Rock.

This is an excellent idea. And one for Tim Brooke-Taylor as well. ❤️

If a male Doctor Who prevented men from committing violent crime, that makes the assassination of JFK even more tragic.

6 years ago today, we saw one of the greatest performances of all time. A performance that still gives me chills to this day.😍
Peter Capaldi delivering a phenomenal speech about war.
Give this man ALL the awards ✨

Today, I’m annoyed when people say “staycation” to mean a holiday in Tenby, Cornwall or Skye instead of Spain. We’d better start getting over the idea that a holiday has to involve schlepping abroad in a great guff of greenhouse gas or it doesn’t count.

Has anybody asked the football where it wants to live and not for it to just get passed about from home to home with no stability willy nilly?

The neighbours just put the house up for sale. Couldn't resist checking it out on Zoopla.

I hope before too long I can resume being totally uninterested in politics: when someone no doubt very dull is installed in Downing Street, but who has some sense of what’s right and wrong and is not an actively malevolent force in our body politic.

It's easy to mock people for taking big swings and missing, but some of your favorite pop culture stuff undoubtedly involves big swings that, against all odds and expectations, worked out.
