I’m off to Kensington Palace to take down Diana’s statue because I *BELIEVE* she was a traitor against the Royal Family.

Rosie Jones. She may be a lovely woman and I know we are supposed to be be supportive of the disabled, but...she's not funny and on the rare occasions that she does try to say something amusing by the time she's succeeded in saying it we have all got the joke several seconds previously.

She told me you were a cunt.

 

But you are right: I already knew that several seconds previously.

Co-commentators on TV football coverage.

 

It's half-time during today's televised match (Manchester City vs Chelsea) and my enjoyment of said coverage is spoilt by the non-stop whinging of Steve Mc-fucking-Manaman. I thought Andy Townsend was bad but 'Macca' takes it to a different level (which he shares with Robbie Fucking Savage). Also, as if itwsn't bad enough having one co-commentator, for this match there's also Glenn Hoddle, who is also pretty annoying. 

 

Kenneth Wolstenholme, Brian Moore, David Coleman, Hugh Johns, et al must be spinning in their graves.

Co- commentators ban the fucking lot of 'em.

More completely baseless accusations of racism.  I despair.

This is the sort of thing that stirs up resentment and hatred.

 

Quote

Omicron: Is racism why South African evidence of milder infection was ignored?

 

Two of South Africa's most prominent coronavirus experts told the BBC that Western scepticism about their work could be construed as "racist," or, at least, a refusal "to believe the science because it came from Africa".

"It seems like high-income countries are much more able to absorb bad news that comes from countries like South Africa," said Prof Shabir Madhi, a vaccine expert at Johannesburg's University of the Witwatersrand.

"When we're providing good news, all of a sudden there's a whole lot of scepticism. I would call that racism."

Upper management who gets rid of staff and give them less than a week to apply for a new role within the same company. I work for NHS and it "doesn't like to make people redundant".

 

I've officially mentally lost the plot this week because half the staff have covid meaning cancelling clinics and being told my job won't exist in a few months.

 

I need a holiday.

Now, people of Twitter, I play Wordle too.

 

However, I assume, correctly, that nobody gives a shiny shit how I did, so what I don’t do is share my results every. Single. Fucking. Day like a boring cunt.

I like Twitter and I have a lot of fun there. I have never needed to mute words and for the most part it has not been nasty. 

 

Bit like here really.

I also Wordle (4/6 today), and while I don't tweet my results, I don't mind seeing others results just for comparison.

There's a huge and fantastically expensive book about Muhammad Ali that's called GOAT and on its cover simply has the title in big letters. I remember thinking it looked silly.

Mattresses; more specifically modern mattresses. Firstly, why don't they handles any more, secondly why do they all seem to be one-sided? Also, these mattresses youget on approval for 30/100/whatever days, what happens to the ones that get returned to the manufacturers?

The National Bed Federation has developed best practice guidelines for the design of mattresses with end of life in mind. This will also take into account the reclamation  of materials from returned products
