My friend’s 45 year old husband went out for “one drink” at his work do and when she got up at 8.30am he was still “out”, drinking with a couple of mates in the kitchen. Fine! But it was the morning of the school fair. Which stall had she signed him up to help at? And why was it the WORST ONE?

I don't use the word lightly, but this is really just evil isn't it. "Your identity makes us uncomfortable so be gone from public spaces." Fuck off.

In romantic fiction, the woman loves the man "because i can be myself" and the man loves the woman "because she makes me want to be a better person" What's going on there?

This week I'm tackling why creative women need to be allowed to fail. Women composers have been judged as women first and artists second for too long. It hampers creativity, and does nobody any credit to make gender such an important part of listening. leahbroad.substack.com/p/why-creati...

Philip Larkin’s this be the verse mangled into Ozymandias, the text reads 

They Oz you up, your mandyias.
They may not mean to, but they do.
They give you vast and trunkless legs
A sunken shattered visage too.
But they were Ozzed up in their turn
By Mandyias upon the sand
Who half the time had wrinkled lips And half in sneering cold command.
Oz hands on mandyias to man.
Like mighty works atop a shelf Look on them early as you can
Ye mighty and despair yourself

Asylum seekers, housed in hotels in Manchester, are reaching out in their own words to address the concerns of the local community. Please take a minute to read their letter, & share it with the people in your life who need to hear the truth about the people they are protesting.

There are times when, as a parent of a neurodivergent child who refuses to wear a jumper or waterproofs - despite it being freezing cold and raining - one wishes there was a QR code explainer one could gently present to the parents of compliant, neurotypical children.

This week I did the bravest thing I have ever done and for the first time ever did the glass/cardboard trick to get rid of a substantial spider,
Look, even without a visual impairment, the spider is virtually invisible against background of this spider-coloured coping stone. But I promise you it was substantial. I took this picture through a window because of fear, and I regret it because I watched the spider high-tailing it back into the house and they don’t stand on ceremony. They don’t wait to be let in. What you *can* see is the large piece of cardboard I left out on the wall because it had touched the spider and is now contaminated. Husband came home several hours later and the card was soaked. Anyway sorry this isn’t so much alt text as DVD extras
