Lucy @lucysmooshy.bsky.social · 01/10/2026Somehow staying at this holiday cottage has become, through the years, synonymous with watching films about amnesia. Tonight we are watching Before I Go To Sleep, which was the film that kicked off this whole association, and which has somehow become known to us as Nicole Kidman Don't Know Nothing. 020
Lucy @lucysmooshy.bsky.social · 01/10/2026This morning, Freddie has clearly decided that his sitter is a top-tier person. He has expressed this by gifting her half a mouse. 040
Lucy @lucysmooshy.bsky.social · 30/09/2026Checking the camera; overheard the sitter fondly telling Freddie "You're a very chatty boy, aren't you?" while he SCREAMED HIS LUNGS OUT at her for his breakfast. 041
Lucy @lucysmooshy.bsky.social · 28/09/2026This is the same cat that, a year ago, spent more than a month in the shelter refusing to let anyone look at him, let alone touch him. I'm so proud of how far he's come! 140
Lucy @lucysmooshy.bsky.social · 28/09/2026We are away for a few days and I was a bit concerned that Freddie would miss us, but this photo that his sitter sent us 6 minutes after she arrived suggests that he is managing alright without us 😆 170
Lucy @lucysmooshy.bsky.social · 26/09/2026It's definitely one of my favourite comfort-dinners (and such a good one when you have a stuffy nose/need a good dose of veggies!) 110
Lucy @lucysmooshy.bsky.social · 26/09/2026We are both fighting off colds so there was an obscene amount of ginger, garlic and chilli (and some infused lemongrass) in this and it was glorious. 120
Lucy @lucysmooshy.bsky.social · 25/09/2026My body is, once again, attempting to snap my wrists by sleeping with my hands jammed into the mattress at Extreme Autism Angles, so I am taking recommendations for wrist supports? I currently have a pair of short ones but they are chunky and annoy the living fuck out of me on sensory days. 000
Reposted by LucyIt's Pipes, Mum! Pipes is here! @scriblit.bsky.social · 23/09/2026Happy Bi Visibility Day to all my Bis especially people my age who grew up with systemic homophobia & biphobia and buried all those Other Feelings because it was the path of least resistance and are only just unpicking that & worry that it doesn't count now bc it's not enough & you're too old anyway 918952
Reposted by LucyDr Malice @atarbuck.bsky.social · 23/09/2026Can anyone explain to me in fairly simple words whether or not wine that has 'vinegared' is the same as vinegar? We have some home-made 2014 elderflower wine that has turned to vinegar, but is it the food-safe kind of vinegar, or will the ph be too low? The internet is useless here. 343
Lucy @lucysmooshy.bsky.social · 22/09/2026He is just trying to provide for his family. Even if I would prefer that he didn't. 010
Lucy @lucysmooshy.bsky.social · 22/09/2026He always seems rather relieved. I suspect he doesn't actually like frogs very much and is pleased to be absolved of the responsibility. (Take a mouse away from him, however, and he will be *incensed*.) 110
Lucy @lucysmooshy.bsky.social · 22/09/2026It's good that Freddie doesn't kill the frogs he (frequently) brings into the house, but it does mean that when he brings one in he just stands over it and meows loudly until one of us comes and sorts it out for him. 120
Lucy @lucysmooshy.bsky.social · 19/09/2026100%, I am a big Ed Norton fan in general but that movie 😩 MR brings a real brittleness and soft centre to Bruce which I just adore - and you're right, he works much better in the team dynamic (I can't imagine EN's Bruce being in Ragnarok!) 011

Lucy @lucysmooshy.bsky.social · 19/09/2026We've been doing a partial MCU rewatch and we're up to the first Avengers movie, and I am doing a little cheer every time Bruce is onscreen. 120
Lucy @lucysmooshy.bsky.social · 19/09/2026Today we saw the crown jewels but I was INFINITELY more excited about the ravens. 030
Lucy @lucysmooshy.bsky.social · 18/09/2026I am at a business meeting in a fancy London office where they have things like motivational quotes on the toilet wall and branded mints, and here I am with my pen patterned with cupcakes. 020
Lucy @lucysmooshy.bsky.social · 18/09/2026The man opposite me on the train is illustrating the most beautiful picture of a kingfisher and I am entranced. 030
Lucy @lucysmooshy.bsky.social · 18/09/20267am is a stupid time to be on a train but at least it is a very beautiful time to be on a train. 020

Lucy @lucysmooshy.bsky.social · 16/09/2026When we moved to Wiltshire it was like the Wild West of graphic design. Every community group and small business had nothing but a canva account and a dream, and they used them to make a series of increasingly insane marketing choices. I adored it. Now it's wall-to-wall AI slop posters. 000
Lucy @lucysmooshy.bsky.social · 14/09/2026As a Monday morning treat, Freddie has released a live mouse into the conservatory. 020
Lucy @lucysmooshy.bsky.social · 13/09/2026Just got an email from a holiday company promising "White Lotus luxury," from which I can only assume their marketing manager has not seen The White Lotus. 000
Lucy @lucysmooshy.bsky.social · 13/09/2026Just a couple of tiny scraps to go and we will have de-woodchipped a whole room 🥳 (*admittedly, it is just the loo.) (**but also just about every pipe in our house runs on the outside of the wall so getting the paper out from behind them has been a TASK.) 020
Lucy @lucysmooshy.bsky.social · 13/09/2026I am fairly sure that Freddie has brought the same frog into the house three times in the last twenty-four hours. 010
Lucy @lucysmooshy.bsky.social · 12/09/2026Things I was frightened of as a child: Spiders Being told off Mannequins that move (and which *might* move) Dolls missing eyes That one floating corpse in Jonathan Creek 010
Reposted by LucyW.G Maythorn @earlofforthenby.bsky.social · 11/09/2026I don’t normally do these, but… “Once… he’d seduced someone in an opera box – some smart work with hands out of view of the baying crowd. She’d some sort of marquise, and her chaperone had been charmingly discreet. He’d stopped when the soprano finished her encore, because he’d wanted to applaud.” 121
Reposted by LucyJohn Oxley @joxley.jmoxley.co.uk · 09/09/2026Also, why is this basically written up as "quirky crowd make an embarrassing mistake" and not "violent racists form mob because Asian people use hotel"? 5133631130

Lucy @lucysmooshy.bsky.social · 09/09/2026Precisely! (Debating whether I should consider the temporal element, e.g. have brands shrunk their sizes over time, but this may be taking things a little far.) 110
Lucy @lucysmooshy.bsky.social · 08/09/2026(Of course this will not account for "why is this pair of trousers so big/small when the ones I bought from here two months ago in the same size fit perfectly," but we cannot have everything.) 110
