You should be able to rot in bed for 2, maybe 3 hours after waking up before it starts affecting what time it is. If I wake up at 8:30 and lie in bed for 2hr it should still be 8:30 when I get up

I need you people to realize that you can be friends with people older than you. like, much older than you. like, decades older than you. you can be friends with these people. regular friends, just like anyone your age. it is possible.

I really wish I could stop caring too much about things. I feel so sad today. All because my favourite player lost a match.

Mark didn't have to go that hard. But he did 🫠 I'm not okay.

Thanks for the link! He's so gorgeous here! ... I was very sad when he lost already in the first match, though. Onwards to Hong Kong it is, then!

Iulian Boiko from when he made a maximum in Mons, Belgium in January of 2025.

Lol, Neil did WHAT? 😅 I totally missed that (but handling multiple time-consuming sports with real life is hard and getting into snooker wasn't the best of choices)

Who are your top 5 players? And do you have any fave snooker-related video(s)? I'm currently obsessed with the old crazy snooker matches between Selbs and Neil, theey are such instant mood boosters. I love Neil's laugh and seeing Mark bent halfway, leaning on his cue, laughing makes me all 🥹🥹🥹

Yeah, he totally forgot 🤣 He was supposed to play Michael Holt in the World Open qualifiers, but he'd forgotten all about that and was in a completely different place. I mean.... who else does this? My top 5 players? Actually, the top 4 are easy, and the 5th changes frequently, depending on who does something good right now or not. But let's see, the list is like this: 1. Mark Selby 2. Ronnie O'Sullivan 3. Iulian Boiko 4. Judd Trump 5. Michael Holt or Wu Yize Oh, wow, the crazy snooker videos! I squeed SO HARD when I first found them. My absolute favourite bit is when Mark says he's been a pro for 17-18 years, and he hasn't been aggressive yet. He's very honest with himself 🤣 In fact, I used to be massively anti-Mark when I first got into snooker, because I was such a huge Ronnie fan. When that started to change about a year ago, I was struggling hard with it. It absolutely felt like some kind of betrayal, or something "forbidden" that I shouldn't do. But by now I'm firmly on Mark's side even if they play each other. I love him so much I have no words for it. As for other videos, Stephen Hendry has some good ones on his CueTips channel on Youtube. If I remember right, there's a very nice one with Neil doing the tough table challenge and talking about this, that and everything else for about half an hour. And of course there's the "At home with..." series from the official WST channel. They're kinda old now, from around 2020 or 2021 or so, but the Mark Selby one from that series was a huge part of why I first went from not wanting to give him any attention whatsoever to falling in love with him. He's so, so beautiful there, and seems very honest and thoughtful. And of course he's funny, too. There's an "At home with" video with Neil as well. He's painting Warhammer figures and showing off his best ones. Apparently he's really good at that, and even won some award for his painting, if I remember right. Not sure if he says that in that video or not, though.

I'm a fairly new fan, I didn't know there were other fans on here 😊 My faves are the usual suspects, Ronnie, Judd, Jack Lisowski, but lately Selbs and Neil.

Welcome and yay for you being here ⭐ Nice choices for favourites. Ronnie was my first love as well. And he's still my 2nd favourite player. Judd is also in my top 5 faves. Not that much into Jack or Neil, though I used to like Neil more some years back. He's such a geek, and so scatterbrained it gets funny sometimes - like when he forgot that he was supposed to play in some qualifiers before Christmas, and wasn't even there. Apart from Mark, Ronnie and Judd, I also have a soft spot for Iulian Boiko, from Ukraine. He was the youngest pro ever when he first got on the tour in 2020, at just 14 years old. Of course that was way too young, so he fell off the tour at the end of his tour card. Now he's trying to qualify back in, so I*m trying to keep some track of the amateur tournaments too, just because of him.

Aaaaah, a snooker fan on Tumblr! 🤩

Yeeesss 😀

I'm currently on peak interest with that, and I'm either watching it or thinking about it as much as possible. It's always great to hear from other fans, so feel free to ramble at me as much as you want.

Who are your favourite players?

Mine is 18 years. We met for the first time less than two months ago. It was one of the most incredible experiences of my life. Getting to hug the person who knows more about me than even my closest people in real life, the one who gets my thoughts dumps when I can't talk to anyone else, the one I honestly feel so, so connected to... and it was all that in real life, and more.

what a way to announce your skills issue anyway how long is y'all's longest internet friendship, mine is 14 years
