Tried to get tickets for Clair Obscur Expedition 33 concert, but the only UK event sold out in minutes. Couldn’t even get accessible seats. On the more amusing side, that ticket price 🤭

So, I’ve been really getting into cross stitching this season, so I treated myself to a craft bag (to craft on the go) and a plague doctor needle minder (to keep my threaded needle in place.) 🖤 Bag from Yvettes Stitch Store. Needle minder from Botanical Craft Studio. Both on Etsy. #crossstitch

A pastel coloured Halloween bag (decorated with pumpkins, ghosts and cats) sits on a stair. A little green card with a plague doctor shaped needle minder leans in front of it.

Popped into the Blackheart Market in Edinburgh yesterday. Loved it. Met really nice people running the stalls and picked up a few lovely goodies. 🖤 Anyone who loves all things witchy, goth, horror or just a wee bit different, please check it out. #blackheartmarket

Indoor space next to a staircase and elevator, a statue of Michael Myers from Halloween stands with a weapon. A small black board next to the statue reads “Blackheart Market this way.”

Various Halloween figures are on a row inside a room with a wooden floor and black walls. From left to right is a skeleton (upper body only, appears to climb out floor,) an inflatable ghost, Ghostface from Scream jumping out a pumpkin with a knife, and Jigsaw from Saw sitting on the floor with a sign saying “I want to play a game.”

CW // #FinalDestinationBloodlines and other films in series spoilers. Marked suggestive to hide spoilers. My Final Destination Bloodline Theory (in Progress.) Had a lot of fun returning to dissecting the Death lore, so I wanted to throw my thoughts about how the movies might connect. 🍿

Hemlock’s Final Destination Bloodlines Theory written on google docs. Summarised due to work count and wanting to keep spoilers hidden in a written post. Text: “While characters in previous Final Destination films are likely not related to those in Bloodlines, Death’s List could have been extended to them as a consequence having their original death thwarted by a survivor, or a descendant who was born after the Skyview disaster. Previous films show clear connections between each other and how easily one change in Death’s Design can impact another.”

Ever since watching Final Destination Bloodlines yesterday, it’s been bothering me where I’ve heard the voice of Chet the Elevator Operator before. Then it hit me today. It’s Travis Turner who also voiced Tendertaps from My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic! Small world! 💜

Tweet deleted before I could respond, maybe they had a change of heart (thank you if that’s the case,) but please don’t do this to people. Putting a stranger on blast just for being at a wrestling show where someone got booed (when I didn’t even boo them) is shitty and unfair.

Glasgow Raw was incredible. Loved the crowd (trust me, we were a LOT louder than we sounded on tv!), and loved seeing wrestlers live. Paying for it now (very sore from all the yeeting,) but worth it. Thanks for coming to Scotland, WWE. 💙 Also, @hitthecrossrhodes.bsky.social and I are on Netflix. 🥰

Want to know why us disabled people are pissed about Labour’s benefit cuts? We recognise red flags and know not all of us will survive. It’s happened before and Labour knows this. Anyone who wants to learn more or thinks being on PIP is easy, read @johnpring.bsky.social book “The Department.”

Gf @hitthecrossrhodes.bsky.social and I met our local hero Joe Hendry last night. I was so overcome by his kindness. I’ll always remember him reaching out in the meet and greet queue, asking if I wanted to see him now (because I had my cane,) and saying I was “not a bother.” Thanks, Joe. ❤️
