I’m not American but I just read this amazing cookbook called ‘But my family would never eat vegan!’ and it’s so good. It has all the traditional holiday sides/casseroles in there and so I’m hoping I can be healthy enough to commandeer the kitchen to make some along with my stuffed seitan loaf.

They actually shoot beside my derby league’s space. I’ve never seen them, but one of our Marketing people is so freaking savvy, she managed to trade passes for some signed actor photos. Also, I’ve never seen Suits but I would love to see Gina Torres one day so I can fangirl incoherently.

Madame President if you nasty.

Drink every time he says ISIS instead of answering a question?

I did so well with this, but I think it’s cheating because I used to come up with slogans for a living.

Cronenberg <3 <3 <3!!! This movie is so twisted and amazing and they filmed some of the car scenes in my hood.

Surely I can conserve hedgehogs whilst solving the local church organist’s murder!

We need a kickstarter to fund this guy’s book of juicy secrets of what actually happened.

I really want to make pumpkin gnocchi but making it homemade is crazy hard.

I just misheard part of ‘Alexander Hamilton’ as ‘twerking for his late mother’s landlord’.

My dad is a retired firefighter. He used to tell us about some of the more disturbing calls he went to around the dinner table. In retrospect, it was very fucked up, but the idea of seeing a counsellor or a therapist was out of the question in those days, so he told us.

Can I be really excited for Jeremy Podeswa? He’s a Canadian director and a lot of my favourite Canadian indie directors are getting work on shows like Game of Thrones and I’m so pleased to see that they now have these TV careers that will hopefully lead to them being able to create more of their own content.

DON’T FORGET:

Have you seen #HamOfThrones on twitter? It’s gorgeous.

RISE UP! When are these Democrats gonna RISE UP? When are these GOPs gonna WISE UP? WISE UP? WISE UP?

They’re not throwing away their shot!

Yes! Like my parents want me off all my anti-depressants and anti-anxiety and sleeping meds. Sorry, but I enjoy being somewhat stable and getting the 4-6 hours of sleep my meds let me have.

My friend has RA and is a strict vegan and gets annoyed when other vegans suggest that her RA should be fine without meds simply by eating vegan. It’s not, she’s not going without her meds and it’s ridiculous to suggest that a diet would make chronic pain go away. I’ve got arthritis in my hands and they’re hurting…

I’m going to miss Simon Callow; he was great. And I’m glad Mary got her vengeance.
