Hey @lavietidhar I've massively enjoyed BY FORCE ALONE as my summer beach read this year and have already ordered THE HOOD for when I get home. I've looked online but can find no mention of the third book in the Quartet; Is it something you're working on?

Replying to @AldiUK
@AldiUK You're stocking Prime, but know it will instantly sell out, so if you put it in the middle aisles, then parents will be forced to buy reduced-price shenanigans to help their poor Prime-deprived offstring get over the pain #RememberWhereYouAre(TheMiddleAisle)

P.S. whilst I've got you, can you middle-aisle some REALLY big mugs in case I get a mate for Secret Santa next year? If you could print on the side: 'If you think this is big, you should see my Sambuca shot glass' or 'You'll (try to) find me hiding in the cupboard on Labour Ward'

simply unforgivable that elon is forcing me to either get hot (instagram), get annoying (substack), learn what a server is (mastodon), or become an actual psychopath (linkedin)

No more emails. If you want something from me you must approach me slowly and calmly with a piece of apple or carrot in your palm with your fingers flat and extended so I do not bite them

My wife just said "if you hate everyone, you should eat something, and if you think everyone hates you, you should go to sleep" and I don't think I've heard a better life hack

Today my 7 year-old came into the room crying. I asked him what happened and he said that his 5 year-old brother put 80 cows in his house in Minecraft while he was offline and that it was "entirely too many cows" and honest to christ I have no idea how to parent any of this.

In all seriousness, everyone who has ever played the game of #golf, especially if they do it professionally, is always one bad swing away from considering retirement. They’re also one swing away from thinking they can win The Masters. We’re a wildly psychotic bunch

A jolly and joyous day indeed! Happy anniversary to The Muppet Christmas Carol, which debuted in theaters on December 11, 1992.

The old couple on our street who put their bin out first are on holiday. There’s blue bins out, there’s green bins out. Someone two doors down has gone brown. It’s fucking carnage.
