I mean it was called Brainiac and it did have John Tickle walking on top of a pool of custard. Are you suggesting I was wrong to use that as my foundation for all knowledge??

You’re right. But in the interest of no stupid questions I thought I’d ask anyway, because…you know, what if?.

And thanks for the grammar lesson, I didn’t ask for that one but I’ll take it on board.

Thank you.

I think I saw a show 20 or so years ago that tried to debunk this and obviously either they messed up, or I wasn’t paying attention.

(The show was called Brainiac).

Turned 2 a few weeks back. I think we’re entering, or have just entered the terrible twos. Fun fun fun.

Disney+ UK for certain. I’m not sure how it works out across other regions but I saw a Tiktok that said it was available worldwide.

Son broke my favourite mug. And he then threw my phone at my wrist, which hit my watch and scratched the phone screen. Yeah, its been a fun one.

I’ve stopped looking at my notifications on Reddit, it’s just too anxiety inducing for me. Thankfully I’ve not had that same problem here, although I’m sure it’ll happen eventually.

Hope you feel better.

Don’t worry. If she’s anything like her Father she’ll be more interested in Eugene Debs than Donald Trump.

She used to. We’ve put a stop to YouTube though because she turns into a little demon after watching it.

I’m already half way there being a big NHL fan.

Maybe I could use that time to watch The West Wing? I’ve heard nothing but good things about it but…who’s got the time.

Joking aside, the scene where Tywin schools Joff on how no true king needs to say that he’s a king is peak GoT. Absolutely incredible writing, acting and production from all involved.

Teach me!

I dunno, I could spend a good long while playing nothing but Football Manager if I didn’t have to worry about being anywhere else.

I mean, is this in real time because I won’t lie, I bet there’s an awful lot of ‘boring’ mixed in with all the amazing moments.

Won’t lie. Having a second was never something I expected to happen. I’m not sure either of us were ready for it and it’s absolutely gutted our sense of self, our relationship and our overall level of happiness.

That said we both absolutely love our two kids. We wouldn’t be without them and they make our lives so much more…full. It’s amazing to watch them play together, and to watch my eldest show genuine care for another human, and to watch my youngest learn and mimic his big sister.

It’s not been easy. I think we’d both admit that we’ve struggled with the transition from 1 to 2 in ways we never did form 0 to 1, and our youngest has been significantly more challenging than our eldest was, but even with that, he’s an absolute light in my world.

I watched that when it came out but the scene with the father and the tree is still firmly planted in my head.

Is it considered a staycation if you get a caravan for a week? Or is that below the Guardian?

Bingo!

Don’t know about how it is in the US, but in the UK the idea of people rushing to finish their transaction fills me with dread. I’ve worked in a supermarket with self service and the general public really struggles with them.
