Well hopefully now she’s won the battle against trans people she’ll turn her sights and her billions to reproductive rights and rape conviction rates.

Yesterday we dog sat for two beauties, watched a Dr Who Marathon, caught up on the latest Reacher and had - all round - a #VeryGoodDay

Had a haircut yesterday. Installed a new printer (so I’m basically Einstein innit) and - thanks to a conversation with @dvbishop.com - spent a lovely evening rediscovering the later works of @alisonmoyet.bsky.social. It was a very good day.

Me. In my office. Failing to show off my new haircut cos I can’t take a selfie for 💩.

It’s simply not possible to take a bad photo of this beautiful soul.

Every time I see this tree on my daily walk I’m reminded that it’s Cthulhu’s world and we just live in it…

Just had to explain to this one that trying to climb over the fence to get to the foxes in next doors garden is not only rude but - as the fence is at least six feet high - futile. Still, she’s a tenacious warrior, so nothing is impossible.

In an alternative universe I have the confidence and the wardrobe of San Marino’s song contest host.

Had a fantastic day today at a plotting workshop* delivered by @matahb.bsky.social And now I’m catching up on the work backlog and playing one of my favourite Diana albums. (*a workshop about plotting fiction and not a plot to fix the world. Though fuck knows we need one of those.)

A record on the turntable. Beyond it a statue of the Egyptian god Thoth sits alongside the sleeve for ‘Baby it’s me’ by Diana Ross.

I fucking LOVE a sword and sandals epic. Hope there’s an appropriate level of- ahem - Greek activity.

Not sure Skys new TV show “glory hole of the year,” has legs to be honest.

Might even be earlier. Cis 23 was a wet one and that jacket I’m wearing looks like this one from 2019. #SoLongAgo

See me earlier this week shredding about fifteen years worth of utility bills bank statements and pay slips.

Best pre-Christmas present ever. #themanmadeofsmoke by @alexnorth.co.uk courtesy of michaeljosephbooks. I have loved every single North book to date so this one is going to be a huge treat.

St Albans yesterday as the market was closing. “‘Ere, love,” one of the stall holders beckoned me, “d’you like mangos?” I confirmed that I did, and she handed me a bag. “Enjoy!” So today’s late breakfast: Mango. Greek yogurt. Honey. Crushed pistachios. Putting up the tree today. Say a prayer for us.
