Great little game that would very much appreciate the support of cunning linguists, and fab to see they want real people rather than AI. 🤖🚫 (Espercially, as an English teacher and translation proofreader, it's still obvious when AI is used because it does some wrong/weird stuff)

Attempt no. (I've lost count) of trying to use this as my main social media platform. Is it me, or is enshittification really a thing over on Facebook? It really feels that it' gotten significantly worse recently. 😐

I'm picturing an equine in front of a judge dressed in badminton gear. What did the badminton horse do? What are the papers saying? "Badminton Horse Trials Resume. Read the Shocking Relevations!" The scandal!

Tough one to post, as the tshirt is tight. But I'm trying to feel more comfortable about my body image. Always struggled due to thyroid issues making weight loss hard and mental and physical health making regular exercise difficult. But I've lost a little recently, and am feeling more confident.

Wanted to recorded one of my favourite (if not bleak) Shakespeare quotes for The Bard's birthday today, all sombre and while riding a Polish tram, but, fml, I'm on the noisiest tram known to man! >.< I don't think my fellow passengers would appreciate me shouting lines from Macbeth unprovoked XD

Another jaw-dropping vid from Ok Go. Technology doesn't need to mean souless shit-looking pictures of people as action figures. When combined with human ideas, human execution, and real world things, you get something amazing. youtu.be/gz9BRl7DVSM?...

There's no reason @genshinimpact-en.bsky.social ever needed to go hard on the music, but DAYUM. To go to the lengths of composing full orchestral pieces that are utterly monumental, and are recorded by world class orchestras, is something to cherish. 👨‍🍳👄 (Makes me miss my days in youth orchestras)

Just going to say it: No Man's Sky has no business being so masterfully bleak. Few games make you face the void with such tenderness, thought, and depth. Even when replying the story I'm still caught off guard about just how affecting it is :'(

Coffee was not easy to get unless it was grossly overpirced Starbucks or undrinkable, like the "milk coffee" (made with condensed milk and salt water). Tea was amazing but not cutting it.

Last two days have been hard. Just dealing with the anxiety of returning to work, and also having to reface the issues (finances/not enough paid work, body image etc) that drove me to the psych ward in the first place. But I'm holding out alright. It's just exhausting and unpleasant :(

First theatre outing in a while. This time, to a theatre dedicated to theatre for youth (Lalek Arlekin w Łódzi) to see an adaptation of Gombrowicz's "Yvonne, Princess of Burgandy". Masks (literal and figurative) are a big thing here. Hopefully fewer homoerotic Nazis than Gombrowicz's "Operetka"! 🤣

Been reminiscing a LOT about my orchestra-playing teenhood with friends. Seems so off that a HUGE part of my life, and my emotional and creative outlet, seems like ancient history. And, it's made me hideously sad and emotional that music is no longer an active passion, but a passive one :'(

Something/a "poem" I wrote in the diaries I kept while in emergency psychiatric care last month... 😂

* "Yellowface" - Rebecca F Kuang (scathing and wonderfully on the nose) * "Tori Amos: Little Earthquakes: The Graphic Album" - Various (wonderful narrative and visual interpretations of songs from the iconic album) * Desert of the Heart" - Jane Rule (saphic, sultry, and really engrossing)

"Calypso in London (short stories)" - Sam Selvon (whimsical and wily) "The Imitation of the Rose (short stories)" - Clarice Lispector (manically meta) "Playing to the Gallery" - Grayson Perry (art theory made accessible and fun) "Mrs. Palfrey at the Claremont" - Elizabeth Taylor (cosy but with wit)

Books read while in hospital last month: "For Whom the Bell Tolls" - Ernest Hemmingway (perfect for the psych ward...) "Mothering Sunday" - Graham Swift (ethereal and enjoyable) "Runaway (short stories)" - Alice Monroe (less melodramas, more mellow-dramas!)
