If cowardly is not wanting uninvited interactions with dull pedants who insert themselves insultingly into light conversations in order to wank all over the perceived moral high ground THEN PAINT MY BELLY YELLOW AND POUR ME INTO A FRAIDY CAT COSTUME
“You don’t want to talk to me so therefore you must be afraid of my truth. I am powerful.” He said, in his most powerful keyboard baritone.

She looked at the words, lying bare across the screen and hesitated. Perhaps he was right?

But he wasn’t so she got on with her day
She looked at him across the internet, ‘he must be exhausted. it’s tiring work finding conversations between two women he doesn’t know and finding a way to twist them into a superiority complex.’ If only he knew someone in real life who could bring him a refreshing juice drink
“She is tweeting me!” He cried aloud, the first sound in his room for 8 mtgs that wasn’t a damp fapping noise. “This must mean I’m under her skin! I win!”

And he was right, he had got under her skin... he was a mild annoyance that she could choose not to look at: like cellulite
The attention engorged him & he looked at his arsenal, wondering what to hit the professional writer and comedian with next. What would really sting her?
SJW? Snowflake? Swivel eyed lefty? How about “so called” comedian? That always worked. Then his eyes fell upon the cry laughing emoji and he grinned victoriously
He was torn between the joy of notifications, for attention meant an end to the crushing loneliness, & the annoyance that the idiots on Twitter were liking the wrong tweets - not understanding his reasonable position. Why couldn’t all women be as kind as the ones on his posters?
Tiffany Amber Thiessen gazed at him with her kind, understanding eyes. She would never talk down to him, she would always do her best to understand he was an intellectual without parallel forced to engage with plebs, she would never use a word with three syllables

I’m watching The Rock. Never seen it before. There are approximately 14 male leads and they’ve all been told the film is a different genre. It’s delightful
The budget seems to be the GDP of a medium sized country
I *think* what’s happened is three people had scripts and to save time they have put all the plots into this one film

I stayed at someone’s house last week and they have a cat. And I never knew this but, when you go to sleep… cats just wander about the house catting all night? You can’t “put a cat to bed”?! The cat just… gets the house for a while?! Fucking nuts.
Like, you can’t even give a cat a room?! They scratch the door until they’re allowed to come and have the house again? Cats are WILD
At one point I woke up and the cat was just staring at my sleeping face and when I mentioned it my friend said “yeah, she does that to check if you’re still breathing” but no mention of which way the cat hoped it would go…

I swear England is infested with villages that only pop into existence at night when you just want the train to go faster

I’ve never seen “Balcombe” in the day time but yet here I am at 11pm sat here waiting for precisely no one to get on or off
Around 10:45pm all across Britain green fields suddenly flash brightly before reappearing as Gurnly on the Fenton or Greater Fitzbrunchunting
All through the dark hours the ghostly village sits. Haunted bunting flapping listlessly in the breeze created by the 80 commuters sat stock still at the creaking station and sighing in unison as their lives slip away

I have a podcast. Did you know I had a podcast? I feel like I try and promote it a fair bit but then I always seem to get people saying they didn’t know. Did you know?
For the yes people: good, I hope you’ve tried listening.
For the no people: it’s here, enjoy:

I’m going Brighton —> Leeds and back today. The train is costing about £195. I reckon if I drove it would probably cost less than £70 in fuel. The cost of train travel is such a huge block in the practical ability to be environmentally friendly in this country
That’s a big moan before I even get started on the fact that before the first leg of my journey has even left the station they are warning me of a points failure up ahead. So… will I get to work? Yet another issue for people who CANNOT be late because of the financial penalty
We’re a small country, that has had train infrastructure for centuries, with expensive ticket prices. Why is it so difficult to have it function? Maybe I’m missing something but it doesn’t feel like we have any excuses?

In the Olympics, before each event I think there should just be a normal person having a go to show you the scale of how phenomenal the Olympians are
Like I’d volunteer to plant face first into a vault to show how a regular body doesn’t whizz over it in 6 twists
I just think then, when the commentators are going “oooh that’s not so good” after something superhuman, we have a little scale
