Kirsten Amy @kirstenp.bsky.social · 06/10/2026PMS in one’s thirties is mad. I’ve spent the last week deeply upset my dog won’t live forever, worrying I’ll never have a baby, and finding Hans Zimmer’s Lion King soundtrack unbearably poignant to the point of tears 0100
Reposted by Kirsten AmyJim Rossignol @rossignol.bsky.social · 06/10/2026This gets said constantly, but it worth reiterating: Games Workshop being bigger than fishing is important to shout about because you wouldn't know it from government talking points, which are rarely about anything creative or artistic. Growth won't involve fish or steel, it will involve goblins. 502622645

Kirsten Amy @kirstenp.bsky.social · 03/10/2026There is one aspect of life in which I think men should actually bottle up their feelings MORE and not less, and it is: when they have a cold 162
Kirsten Amy @kirstenp.bsky.social · 03/10/2026Problem with having a garden now is I have to confront my horror of wet wildlife (worms, slugs, snails, frogs, etc). Dry wildlife? Not bothered. I'll catch spiders and put them outside all day long. Moths, daddy-long-legs, bees, wasps: I am entirely unfazed. 150

Kirsten Amy @kirstenp.bsky.social · 02/10/2026I have an irrational hatred of the phrase 'thought experiment', because to me it sounds like a man decided he couldn't possibly do anything so girly as to 'imagine a scenario', so he had to come up with a more MAN way of saying it 4313

Kirsten Amy @kirstenp.bsky.social · 01/10/2026There’s a certain kind of man who looks up when I walk by with Noodle, and I think the type can best be described as “man who’s spent the afternoon building a pergola while listening to 6 Music” 090

Reposted by Kirsten AmyIvan @hellothisisivan.bsky.social · 01/10/2026That’s Life! was just incredible. Its two most famous moments are a man being movingly celebrated by the now grown Jewish children he got out of Nazi Germany & a dog saying “sausages”. No other programme has ever had that range. 812530
Kirsten Amy @kirstenp.bsky.social · 01/10/2026Was excited to have J back yesterday but dear God he was so restless last night (overtired, I suspect, after four days of conference madness) that frankly I want him to go away again 150
Kirsten Amy @kirstenp.bsky.social · 30/09/2026I try not to look at TikTok but I’ve evidently dipped in frequently enough that I’m now getting shown a LOT of horse content, which may prove some of you entirely right about the sort of girl I am 040
