Having slept on it, I've decided we should #BringBackBoris. It would be amazing. I think you'd have a rush of resignations from the party, and anyone of the 60 odd ministers who resigned just months ago would be skewered when probed as to why they now suddenly supported him.
In short, though it would create yet more weeks like this week, I think it would ultimately lead to the destruction of the Conservative Party. Bring it on. #BringBackBoris

IT BEGINS.

As info, I will be using real Hobnobs - of which I'm very familiar - as a base level. I'll also be eating with a cup of tea to hand.

FIRST UP: Lidl's OATIES.
Okay. These are nice, if dry. Without dipping in tea, I'd argue they were a little too dry to truly taste, but dunked in tea they were delicious.

7.5/10
These are...a nice biscuit. Again, a little dry if not dunked, but interestingly they tastes 50% fake Hobnob, 50% fake Digestive. A definite mix in there. Very nice, but not necessarily Hobnoby.

7/10

So, without too many spoilers (I hope), here are my thoughts on #TheBatman. It's terrible. It's genuinely terrible. And it's worst than most of these blockbusters in that the trailers gave me hope they'd found a story they wanted to tell here, but in reality, it's the very...
...same story even a passing viewer like me has seen told in scores of previous Batman films.

The thread of 'mystery' the writers try to stand up as a plot has about as much craft to it as an over-repeated episode of Midsomer Murders. 'The Batman' is constantly half hour...
...behind said plot, with every reveal triggering an audience groan from the screen I was in. Indeed, the makers seem determined to think the audience is dumb, with perfunctory exposition and needless lines of dialogue that explain what we've just seen constantly...

I see this trending and, nope, can't click on this again.

I cannot get embroiled in "debates" with children - at least mentally - struggling with their own insecurities who, as a result, still view homosexuality as a perversion.

It's fucking exhausting just existing sometimes.
I'm not a big flag-waver. I've known I was gay since I was 8 or 9. I've never struggled with it - I've never questioned it, I've never wanted to change it, it's not something that's on my mind.

But when I see people saying stupid stuff, I will stand up for my LGBTQ family.
These kids saying stupid stuff - it doesn't bother me on a personal level. I know they're talking arse and I know their views have no basis.

What bothers me is that others listen to these randoms, so when I see someone talking crap, I will challenge them.

But it's exhausting.

As someone who has struggled with his mental health throughout his adult life, I have some advice for those currently suffering with depression, and more than likely me in the future:

When you're down in the dark pit, try not to bring others down with you. It helps no-one.
It can be very easy when things are really dark to trample on anyone else's happiness - to be spiteful, to be childish, and to rain on every parade. I'm sure I've done it.

But it just pushes people away. It makes you, to be frank, an arse. In short, it doesn't help.
Seeing other people happy may be painful, but remember, happiness is incredibly fleeting for most. A smile today could be gone tomorrow, and venting your anger at other people who - on the surface - are enjoying a moment of joy by trampling on it is, well, a shitty thing to do.

I'm a patriot. I love the UK, I love England, I love Manchester, I love the street that I live on.

But.

Wouldn't a fresh start be great? Wouldn't it be great if our national identity wasn't wedded to a fictitious take on what people long dead did hundreds of years ago?
We got a glimpse of this during London 2012, where our sense of pride stemmed from people of all colours, races, and identities representing the UK to beat out the best in the world. That I was proud of. A statue of a man who none of us knew who did unspeakable things? Nope.
This could be a great opportunity to acknowledge the past, to realise that people long presented to us as heroes actually did horrific things, and then to come together and agree to do better - to celebrate the amazing things the UK does now, and not glorify the horrors of old.
