My move to Manchester is getting announced at work on Thursday and suddenly it will all become real. I am nervous/excited.

Oh no the proclaimers are anti-trans. Now I can’t listen to all their hits.

Just laying down to go to sleep and I get hit with the worst fucking headache of my life. I feel like my head is splitting in two. 😫

Something tripped the circuit with my wall sockets on at exactly 7:30am yesterday, the fuse kept tripping every time I reset it. I got home last night and flipped it and it was fine. Then, like clockwork at 7:30am today it starts tripping again.

AHS13 is so far so impossibly confusing and straightforwardly bad that I can feel it eating away at my enjoyment of previous seasons retroactively.

Well that did the fucking job, didn’t it?

Ok I’m hungover after a wedding, maybe it’s finally time to watch Heated Rivalry

Well the opportunity finally came up, and it looks like I’ll be moving to Manchester in the new year.

Ok I’ve rewatched Wandavision and Agatha All Along. If Vision Quest is shit I’m going to riot.

Ive tried really hard, but I just don’t like Charli’s new album. I like the singles. I do I have to become a Slayyyter gay now?

Just saw an interview with Alia Shawkat and clocked she was wearing a Free Marwan t-shirt and literally threw my fist in the air. Love finding out a fav is legit.

Just hung out with a school friend I hadn’t seen in probably 20 years. She’s unmarried, with no kids and everything just slid back into place. I hate ageing in a heteronormative supremacy.

I joked a few days ago about John waters dying but I genuinely didn’t see what coming with Tim Curry. My 15th birthday was rocky horror picture show themed. To say he shaped me feels small. I loved that man.

I don’t often think of people as good. I think people are lots of positive things, often balanced by lots of negative things. I think Dolly Parton was definitively good. One of the few people for whom the more I heard of them the more I loved them. That’s a legacy.

Getting these two images fed to me consecutively on instagram just made me double take

A slice of a meme, the text mostly obscured also irrelevant. Mitch McConnells face, mouth pursed, chin MIA

An ad for Shygirl’s alias ep. A record sleeved the image: Eyes and mouth presented behind a skin like screen. There is a pink vinyl poking out.

Had to explain who Solange was to a 21 year old colleague today. She responded ‘oh Beyoncé’s sister? I heard Beyoncé used to be in a girl group- is that true?’

I had every intention of going out this evening but my cab home from my friends house got caught in the traffic of everyone leaving Lewis Capaldi playing near me and now cabs into town are £40 fml

Since we’re on the subject. Queers over 30 when did you last add someone to your close friendship circle that wasn’t a ‘marry-in’?

I feel like I’m in a place to share a bit about the past few months right now. A few months back I ended things with someone I’d been seeing for a while. He was lovely but it wasn’t right.

People criticising other people’s grammar and spelling with poor grammar and spelling is like catnip to me.

Watching Bring it On because I’m sick and chatting to a 27 year old on Grindr. He says he hasn’t seen it because he was 1 when it came out. LIKE THATS AN EXCUSE!

I accidentally unfollowed the charli XCX Alt insta account 2 days before album release. I’m damned. I’ll never be an angel again.

The date of my 40th birthday is predicted to be when the world ends? Coincidence? I think not.

I went to a BBC event recently where they showed the first episode of Ann Droid. I left kind of hoping the first episode wasn’t emblematic of the series, but having now watched it, I can confirm that it is not funny at all.

Went on a hot date with this slice of beef. LOOK AT HIM. Popped a ring on that one. Here he is texting our beloved @madaram.bsky.social. We got through two bottles of chenin blanc.

I’ve just watched the Toxic Avenger remake starring Peter Dinklage, Kevin Bacon and Elijah Wood and what I’ve come away with is that Peter Dinklage is an extraordinary actor, I love that man.

I’m probably not alone in this, but it doesn’t matter how well I know someone, once they’re in sport-fan mode I feel anxious and threatened.
