My father, from whom I have been estranged for all my adult life and most of my childhood, died last Sunday. He was 57.
I’ve spent the last week trying to process how and what I feel. I have a lot of emotions that will take time to pick through.
For now, he is at rest after a long illness. RIP.
I’m so sorry for your loss, Matt. My sincere condolences.
I got hammered with them and stumbled back to my own place at 3am.
They’re nice people! I’m glad I forced myself to go.
Our neighbours are moving out and they invited us to drinks tonight. Except I have never spoken to them really, Eóin was the one who knew them.
Which would be fine if Eóin didn’t have to travel at short notice and still wants me to go alone. I don’t even know their names. Just their dog’s name.
I’m a gay man in my mid-30s. Of course my go-to Karaoke songs are power ballads from the 1980s.
Alone
Total Eclipse of the Heart
Turn Back Time
Black Velvet
Holding out for Hero
If You Were a Woman
Steel Bars
You name it, I know it. The 13 minute version of I Would Do Anything for Love? Nail it.
Finally someone says it
How are you going to condense days of dying to Melania into like 3 hours.
Completely unsurprised at that sacking today. I heard stories first hand. Deeply unsettling.
I don’t quite understand that Leo and Rolex ad showing in cinemas.
Not advertising a Leo movie in particular, and it’s not like even if you can afford a Rolex that you’re able to walk in and buy one on the spot. I was on a waitlist for over a year.
Project Hail Mary was one of the best movies I’ve seen in years.
I went into it without reading the book - my husband has read it - and I laughed, I cried, I held my breath…
One or two tiny nitpicks but honest to god it was fantastic. And I say this as someone who has to be dragged to sci-fi films
I’ve come back to this since they fixed the quests that soft blocked me and I’m getting more into it, I have to say. I feel a little overwhelmed but I do a little bit each day.
Genuinely hilarious to me he has never noticed before. It’s not something I am particularly surreptitious about. I feel like I’ve burst a bubble for him.
My husband and I have a joint account, but we have separate personal accounts for savings, fun money, running away money, whatever you want to call it. Personal use.
Today he was like “wow I can’t believe you have no wrinkles whatsoever in your face.”
Babe. Botox. Monthly. Fun money.
After humming and hawing over it for some six months, I’ve finally bit the bullet and ordered a new MacBook Pro to replace my almost 8 year old device.
When it’s struggling with just one tab open in Chrome, it’s time to put it out of its misery.
RIP MacBook Pro with touch bar. You served well.
One every minute for 15 minutes!
My husband wishes he knew this. I am a 15 alarms versus his 1.
I don’t think I’ve ever heard that theme tune either tbh
I always enjoy watching the fruit juice stand at hotel breakfast buffets and seeing who is depressed and avoiding the grapefruit juice like the plague, even when nothing else is left.
Same, girl. Same.
Husband: Are you depressed?
Me: What? No. Why would you think that?
Husband: You used to spend Sundays dancing around the house singing to terrible country music while you cleaned. You don’t do that anymore.
Me: Because we bought a Roomba and hired a cleaner. I freed myself.
Read this originally as thought you were supposed to be offered one before it’s fine. Like it a special licence to speed.
Yes I was doing 90 in a 30 zone but I did an awareness course, so it’s fine.
What in the shake and go is going on here
Sad to hear of the death of Michael Lyster. What a broadcaster. Made Sundays enjoyable. May he RIP.
Bloody love a topped jacket potato.
He had Parkinson’s for the last 5/6 years and was 81. So like I would say no, probably not suspicious.
Robert Mueller has died. He was a Marine Corps officer, Bronze Star & Purple Heart recipient. A Republican, he was FBI Director for 12 yrs. Headed Investigation into Russian interference in 2018 election

Well I got home from the airport late on Monday and then yeah. I’ve just been working in my home office since then.
I haven’t needed to go outside 😅😅
Me: I’m going to the supermarket, do you need anything?
Husband: I only went to the shop like 4 hours ago.
Me: Yes, but I haven’t left the house since Monday and I require a ~ sweet treat ~!
Husband: … ok.
This is a shock. 54 is no age.
Chuck Norris has died.
He won’t like that.
