On Spotify Wrapped Eve, I just want to make one thing clear. There will be people who say no one cares about your Spotify Wrapped and to stop posting all your graphics. They are wrong. I care. Show me all your graphics. Let’s delight in the wild west that is the yearly music roundup ✌🏻

How it started vs how it’s going 🥹

Screenshot of a Facebook memory from 10 years ago today. Status reads: “The last couple of months have been rough. But for the past 28 days I’ve had something positive to focus on and tonight I achieved something I was beginning to think would never happen. One month, 50,000 words. Nailed it.” There is an image of a completed NaNoWriMo graph.

Just finished Heartstopper S3 (with a day’s break between E5 and 6 to read Solitaire) and now openly weeping at the fact that there are kids and teenagers out there who get to grow up with this kind of visibility in popular media 🥹 representation is so important. Feeling seen is so important.

Introduce yourself with some jobs you’ve done apart from what you’re doing now 1. Soft play attendant (at Wacky Warehouse for those who remember it) 2. Terrible waitress in a tiny village pub 3. Corn maze scarer (very recent, will 100% be repeating) 4. Various call centres (various levels of awful)

Day two of YALC and the Bloomsbury stall completely shifted all 400-odd TART samplers. Here’s a photo of the last one 😳🍓
