Sorry for all the maudlin posts today. I'm usually used to being on my own. But for some reason, I'm finding today particularly hard.

I hope next year that I don't have to celebrate alone. Or at the very least maybe talk to someone in person at some point during the day?

My career- that's an entire other can of worms that I don't necessarily want to think about today. But I need to. Because I don't feel fulfilled right now- in any aspect of my life.

I turn 51 in just a few hours. I had always envisioned that once I got to my 50s that I'd be in a good place with my life and career. But, I've spent today alone. Normally, I'm ok with being alone- but being alone on your birthday . . . that just makes me feel pathetic.

If Sadiq Khan is a trans ally, why is he allowing JK Rowling’s Harry Potter to take over the Christmas lights in Oxford Circus? Email him now and ask him to pull the plug on transphobia. goodlaw.social/e1ae3f

I've been there so many times myself, with my AO3. It's hard not to listen to the demons. But know that your art is amazing and I'm proud to have it up in my flat!

I should clarify that my birthday is tomorrow. But, somewhere on the planet it is tomorrow.

Ok, I mentioned it was my birthday and they've kindly said we can postpone the meeting until next week! Can I hear a wahoo?

It's bad enough that I will be on my own for my birthday. All I wanted was the day off. But I had to adjust it for a course I need to take (online at least). And now someone wants a meeting with me in the afternoon. *sigh*

If anyone here crochets or knits, apparently this creator on insta just dropped a Good Omens inspired yarn collection!

My birthday is in a few days and once again I have no one to celebrate it with. Except my cat. And he isn't a big conversationalist.

EVERY UK MP needs to read this You are all part of a government that is creating a situation so hostile and unsafe that people are leaving the country This is not an isolated case. You have the power to do something about this.

I need to find someone like that where I work. They'd have to be outside my centre since everyone in mine knows I'm the crazy fan girl!

I'm so sorry you have to go through this. ❤️

So I’ve changed it. And yeah so what, I like this one. Although it is *checks notes* 10 years old next week. How is this photo that old?

It's October, so I have to change my profile picture to the other October birthday celebrant.

There are signs up all over the place that state not to use the volume on your phone and to not take any calls inside. How is this so difficult to comprehend?

Are people stupid? Why are you scrolling your phone with the AUDIO on in the GP surgery???????

I’m at the GP surgery for an annual routine appointment. Apparently, you can’t actually book at appointment with the GP at the surgery. You have to call on the day, or book online (where there are never any appointments). This seems kind of ridiculous.

Long story short: I’m an asylum seeker in France now. I don’t know how long this process will take, but for I still can’t officially work here. So I’m looking for any opportunity to earn money to be able to pay for rent and food. Please, read and share this post ❤️‍🩹 ko-fi.com/illustory

WE NEED HELP
Please, read and share this!
(text version of the pics above)
We are a group of queer artists, and we are in big trouble.
In April 2025, we immigrated to France, seeking a safe place to live and make art.
Our humanitarian visas expired a year ago.
Since then, we have been trying to get legal status in France.
To be able to work, open a bank account, get health insurance and just have some basic human rights.
We spent a whole year fighting for our lives against Strasbourg Prefecture and we lost.

All this time we couldn't properly work, so we were burning our savings.
In August, all three of us were denied a residence permit.
According to the Prefecture, the only option for us To stay legally in France is to become asylum seekers.
About a week ago, we sent out our applications for the asylum.
Now we are looking at another indefinite stretch of time, before we are summoned to Paris for interviews.
It might be two months, three months, half of a year or even more... no one knows for sure.

We had planned for a year without documents max, and now it's been a year and a half already.
No matter how hard we tried to stretch our savings, they have run out.
Currently, we don't have enough money to pay for rent and food in November.
It's hard for me to admit that, but we are in huge trouble, with all our hopes and plans ruined by the French bureaucracy.
We really need your help and every little bit matters, so I came up with some options for how you can support us.

It is going to cost me over £60 to go to 1. a training and 2. a meeting at my Bristol job (tomorrow and then in 2 weeks). This is just the train and associated buses and doesn't include coffee. How is it £26 for a return train ticket to go from Cardiff to Bristol?
