The Joy of Listing

I just love making lists and ranking stuff.

  • Ranking of my (current) Celebrity Crushes

    1. Hot Priest from Fleabag (Andrew Scott in other roles would still be on the list but ranked lower)
    2. Nathan Fielder
    3. Natasha Lyonne
    4. Michael Cera
    5. Hbomberguy
    6. Todd in the Shadows
    7. Gillian Anderson
    8. Kristen Stewart
    9. Paul Dano
    10. Alex Turner

    They are not ranked on “hotness” (I don’t think you can really rank that or at least I can’t) but on the level of intensity of my crush.

    Fun Fact: I made this list in late 2023, a couple of weeks before I realised I was autistic and just called it “list of my obsessions”. because I didn’t know anything about autism and that there’s actually word for that that doesn’t sound quite as unhinged as “obsessions”. lol
