Cyril and Joe run the “school” and “library” at the commune. Most of the books are self published and the “school” has a huge focus on “free play”. Apparently the children’s innate moral compass will guide them. Cyril and Joe are very proud of their philosophy degrees.

The rule books and character sheets for #ForbiddenLands are stunning. Narratives in their own right before the adventure has even begun. Adapting solo rules so we can play a DMless duet. #TTRPG #HappyNewYear
Table lit by candle light, scattered with books, character sheets, and dice.

December is the month when I try to finish reading all my half started books in order to start afresh in January. On track for my reading target of 2025 but OH MY DAYS I’m not convinced I’ll clear this backlog before the new year!

In IKEA today. Saw this button in one of the showroom kitchens. Overwhelming urge to push it to see if it was part of the display or a genuine safety feature.

Dinner dates with friends featuring a topic for debate.
This is a photo of a white board which reads “Politics in a burning world: do we have duty of care to future generations above and beyond the current global population?”

I recently criticised my partner for saying that the far right were lacking in intelligence because I don’t think that it’s clever or useful to make political arguments by mocking individuals. This graffiti, however, really tests my point…
Graffiti on a wall reading “we want are countrey back”. (Words spelt incorrectly.)

Tell me you have #ADHD without telling me you have ADHD… Today I compulsively made 30+ paper aeroplanes out of my chapter draft print out instead of working.

Amazing but exhausting day in York for PRIDE2025. Absolutely adored small person’s first PRIDE celebration and protest. It was gorgeous, emotional, overwhelming, and perfect. So much love, so much gay, so much queer, so many rainbows.

On the train from Leeds to York for #YorkPRIDE. Little person very excited after repeatedly reading Twas the Night Before Pride by Joanna McClintick & illustrated by Juana Medina. She keeps bellowing, “it’s my first PRIDE!” So much joy, glitter, chaos, and enthusiasm.
