A Year Without Alcohol
So, I’ve been sober for a year.
This is my cat, sitting on me as I write this, high off her face on treats and superiority.
Just over a year, actually – at about ten to eleven the New Year’s Eve before last, I drank half a glass of really bad red wine that stained the inside of my lips and gave me a headache. And that was the last time I drank alcohol.

An Alternative Christmas Movie Guide
Happy holidays!
Well, it’s that time of year – everything’s drawing to a close, and it’s time to settle down with some movies to forget about everything you’ve still got to do in the following year oh my God it’s so much. And we’re here to pick up where we left off – after our alternative Halloween movie list, we’ve decided to share with you our favourite unconventional festive flicks. To the list!
- Rare Exports: A Christmas Tale
Where would we be without a little horror at Christmas-time? Of all the spooky Christmas films I love – and there are many – this is one of my favourites.

The Best TV Episodes of 2018
So, I usually do a list of the best TV shows of the year, which is something that I’m still planning to take on before the month is out. But there’s another list that I really want to do, and that’s the best single episodes of television this year.
Which might sound a little weird, given that surely the best episodes will be from the best TV shows, but the truth is, some of my favourite episodes of TV this year have come from shows that have been heavily patchy. The shows that shoot big often fail big, too – but when they get it right, it’s all the sweeter. So let’s take a look at the episodes of TV that have stuck with me over the course of 2018 (and maybe throw in a little snark about the ones that sucked, who knows). Spoilers ahead!

Riverdale S3E8: Outbreak
Well, with half the season over, I can safely say that Riverdale is doing better than it was last season. The plot are wilder, the stories bigger, the performance even more enormous – it feels like it has bloomed its way through an awkward adolescence and is now in the unearned confidence of young adulthood, sure in its identity even if everyone else can see that it’s batshit stupid. But, despite that, Riverdale has never been great at endings, even half-ones. Can Outbreak turn it around?
