I must not fall into this trap.
I like that. I think it's a cool quality
I need to identify an equivalent
Charging that for one day of cricket in what is widely recognised as a lesser format is some bullshit. Often thought this.
Yes! I've considered this. There's a particular stack of stuff I'm finding very bothersome.
I absolutely cannot do that, least of all to relax.
I sort of know I'd enjoy it in the moment, but that it would ultimately make me feel chappy and sluggish. I'm so antsy rn. Can't settle to anything.
Every question I ask on socials is some variant of "what would a normal human being do in this scenario?"
I'm off tomorrow, and need to spend it relaxing and recharging before a pretty hectic few weeks. So, what is the protocol for relaxing and recharging? What kinds of things do people do? I could just lie motionless in a dark room listening to podcasts all day, but I know that's the wrong answer.
HAHA. Proper loled at this.
Quite the boon in content terms. If you're sure you want me to explain this question to our listeners and refer to your bluesky your handle?
Perfectly fair question. We'll do our best to answer.
You already know my answer, but we'll discuss it anyway.
Recording a podcast with @twoht.bsky.social shortly, if anyone's got any questions. It's nominally about football, but can be any subject. Maybe there's a fraught emotional issue in your personal life you'd like us to have a crack at?
Having said out loud in your head "I WILL REMEMBER THIS ONE"
Haha. People expect you to have wisdom about it once you're diagnosed too. In reality, precisely two strategies have had a profound impact on my quality of life: 1) ADHD medication 2) Putting my vape on a lanyard
Le Tiss is far and away the most gifted of the three.
It's been such a long, weary slog to getting paid this month. I should be paid for a small job tomorrow and a larger one sometime next week, so the end is in sight. If I ever waver over my decision to retrain for a 9-5 job with a regular payday, I must remember months like this.
And right down to being a one club man, which you seldom see.
I remember thinking there'd be people watching his nonsense who'd never seen him play. They would not believe what that man could do with a football.
If you consider the three seminal examples to be Rudy Giuliani, Elon Musk, and Matt Le Tissier, the only one who ever had a legitimate claim to greatness is Le Tissier.
And even racists have a colour scheme in their lounge.
Thatcher was happy to tell us exactly who she was. This man is nobody but happy to pretend to be anybody.
Matt Le Tissier.
The only way to do it is get 40 written over 3 sleepless days when you're hyperfocussing and distribute them as required.
Myspace Tom showed you the way. Don't claim you weren't told this was possible.
They just don't know what's good for them. They're never happy with having already massively outperformed their ability.
True facts.
Rudy Giuliani, Elon Musk and the legion of similarly tragic men who would have been considered great if only they knew when to shut up and fuck off.
Even the fash usually have a colour scheme in their front room.
Especially this beige, nondescript, nothing of a man.
Oh, fuck off, Keir. No, you don't. No one does that.
Surely none of the people kicking off are actually freelance writers? If I were autistic I'd rip your arm off. P.S. Please hmu if you ever branch out to ADHD
He's brown bread.
Like, I'm sorry for him if he struggled with addiction, but fuck off saying you were a Me Too martyr
The Me Too guy with coke racked up on a baking tray?
ahahaha
Has a peek when he need a pick-me-up.
Concocting an extremely weird lie to seem more racist.
I don't know why it makes it worse, but this is such an obvious lie.
[Giuliani's final breath] Tell my family I loved...9/11
Don’t ignore that the bbc asked a racist question here
“I don’t want asylum seekers to live on my street” is genuinely a wild thing to say as a notionally progressive politician
I had 23 on mine. Did you have Ghehi on there?
Is it done?
No one smokes anymore so fewer items will end up converted to ashtrays.
It creeps up on you and you think "if we don't celebrate now, then when?"
To be clear, I don't take "no presents" lightly. I've always wanted to get proper wedding presents like our parents got. Not money and not from a list. A bunch of weird surprises. I want my special day unwrapping soufflé dishes and quince spoons and shit.
Always bloody need summat, don't they.
This is what I've always thought with weddings "haven't you got something mroe important to spend that kind of money on?". But I'm thinking that, since we'll have been together 10 years in May, it might be nice to have some kind of party or something without actually getting married.
Name a better duo.
That's it, innit. From next month we're gonna be a bit better off - like financially stable - but we haven't got a wedding fund or owt.
Or done up like a pastel coloured fairy. The only constant is that they're shit.
OK, I've already done my will, so the only argument I can see for *actually* getting married, as opposed to having a "10 Years Together" party, maybe with some self-authoured vows, is that we wouldn't get any wedding presents.
Perfect!!
This is exactly the kind of thing I'd want. I don't want it to be a financial burden to enjoy yourself at it
My issue is I can't think *what* I'd wear. Trousers wouldn't flatter me, so a suit's out. Whenever I google "unusual wedding dresses" I just get perfectly normal wedding dresses worn with a leather jacket or some shit.
Absolutely not. What you absolutely do need is a backless mermaid wedding dress. And also some expensive shoes (probably high to accentuate the cut) that you'll get plenty of future wear out of.
Oh, I wouldn't put him through a South Asian wedding. He's extremely ADHD and the constant flow of time-sensitive tasks and sensory overload would break him. Probably permanently.
The impact of cutting my own fringe is becoming impossible to ignore.
They're fine. They're neutral. Like all average, comfortable, lived-in bodies. And if we like you, we probably like your dad bod too. When I see someone who's proper ripped, I do wonder how many dead hours they've invested in it and whether they've sacrificed some personality for it.
Gone to the big orgy in the sky.
I'm genuinely considering this now! We might not even get married. Might just have a "decade together" party?
We're now genuinely considering whether we should have a "decade together" party in Summer. Not a wedding as such, but we might write vows or something. Idea's not fully developed yet, but 10 years seems a good juncture to do something.
I had it on but wasn't paying that much attention. That was very much the feeling I got. No accounting for a worldie. BAH
Stupid kopites
Let's just say I'm not surprised
I'd do courses in sound and video editing so I could produce and promote other peoples podcasts as well as podcasting myself. I guess I'd have to become more disciplined with the formalised structure of podcasts, too. But I already know how to do that, I just don't.
Exactly that
CASE CLOSED
True enough. I still don't like it though
We've not really even got our momentum back this early though. As fans I mean.
This is a joke about the exploitative and predatory nature of far-right spaces online. Don't shout at me.
Right? I'm way more into it now everyone seems positive about it.
In the early 00s I remember seeing an interview with a teen who said that internet forums were "a place where I'm not just the weird chubby kid who gets bullied everywhere". Amazing to think he'll be middle-aged now, but still part of a wide-ranging and tight-knit community of incels on 4Chan.
Start taking vitamin C in preparation.
Never met one single football fan who likes the international break after four games. It's literally just in place to annoy us.
Ah, the REAL event.
You're a good man.
And I've done my will, so we're not even bothered about the ceremony lol
Funny thing is I'd never met another Whyte spelt my way, but when I was doing comedy there were two "Sam Whytes" on the circuit. Neither of us had Equity cards, so there wasn't even a real one and a fake one.
AWWW. That's lovely.
And they famously had a long and happy future ahead of them.
Your whole aesthetic really carries a wedding dress. Like, they were designed with you in mind. And you'd have fun choosing the bridal make-up and having it done immaculately. Be mad not to exploit that.
Haha. My sister eloped, but the place they did it provides witnesses for you!!
Our kid eloped and did it just them two and little bab. It's weird being the last, isn't it? I'm sorry it's gonna be extinguished.
You don't have to be formally engaged to ponder the important stuff.
Oh, wow!! At least double-barrel it in. There are a bunch of Whytes up in Aberdeen still, I think. Not relatives, but they exist.
That's awesome!! I'm so relieved people have done it in jeans because I'd hate for him to wear anything uncomfortable.
The worst thing about weddings is everyone having to wait around for the scran. I don't want a single guest hungry or without a drink at any point.
One that you would ACTUALLY have liked to go to.
And I've done my will so we don't really need the bit of paper. A "decade together party" might be a nice thing.
Aw, thats lovely. To the extent that we've discussed it, we've said he can either get some nice DMs or fancy high tops. But the jeans would be essential.
Inviting the whole of everton twitter and awaiting The Incidents.
Last of my bloodline to repeat in exasperated tones, "it's Whyte, that's W-H-Y ... no, Y ... Y for Yankee ..."
If you're flattened you're flattened, no way around it. Glad they've kept you in the loop though.
I'd not really thought about doing anything until I realised we'll have been together 10 years in May and that feels worth celebrating.
I do want everyone to be battered on whatever their choice of poison is all day long.
We'd have to have one at Bramley Moore and one at Edgely Park. Not that ';m ruling it out.
nah, v.funny.
