I'm old. I live in Yorkshire. I'm a lass, although my appearance is gender non-conforming. AuDHD. DV survivor. She/her. Never fitted in. Don't particularly want to. Minecraft, crochet, cats, cheese, gardening, chocolate.

Hi blue flutterby friends! Long time no see; been busy; will return soon(ish). However, I've just been sent this screenshot asking if it is me. It isn't - this is exactly the opposite of what I think. The RNLI are absolute heroes and risk their lives to help ANYONE in danger off our coasts.
Screenshot of post from username The Yorkshire Lass that says "The amount of people cancelling their direct debits to the  RNLI right now, the charity won't be round much longer let's put it that way. ..."

Look what arrived! Thrilled to get my signed @zombiecleo.bsky.social Limited Life pin that I successfully bid for at the @gamersoutreach.org stream weekend in April!
Workout Cleo Zombie sat on my computer desk with a signed Limited Life pin propped up against her.Close up of the Zombie Cleo Limited Life pin. The pin depicts a green person's face with flowing copper hair, a purple neck band, pink headband with yellow flower attached and the three Life hearts next to the ear. The hearts are coloured green, yellow and red.

I get the impression that some people aren't clear what this means. This is the UK state deciding to intervene directly in the healthcare of individual children, depriving them of medicine that their doctors have prescribed for their personal health & wellbeing, in defiance of global best practice.

True. This is reality now, under a government that is pandering to the extremist views of a very vocal (and rich) minority. Bodily autonomy, equity for all humans regardless of religion, skin colour, gender expression or sensuality, disability etc is not extremist. It's basic humanity.

Books saved my life more than once as A Weird Teenager With No Friends by giving me worlds o could escape into when I didn'twant to live in this one. Sadly, my two favourite series (The Mists of Avalon and The Belgariad/Mallorean) were written by people who were pretty awful.

I've never understood parents that feel like they 'own' their children. I've seen parents give their pets more autonomy than they grant to their kids. And then wonder why their adult kids don't share much with them.

Bryn Celli Ddu is a remarkable Neolithic passage tomb built to align with midsummer sunrise some 5,000 years ago! On the longest day of the year, the rising sun lights up the inner burial chamber where a stone pillar keeps watch from the shadows. Anglesey, Wales 📷 by me #TombTuesday #Archaeology
My photo collage shows Bryn Celli Ddu Neolithic passage tomb on the island of Anglesey, Wales. 

Top photo: view of the grassy mound which covers the inner burial chamber, with east-facing stone-lined entrance, and a kerb of rocks around the mound.

Bottom left: stone-lined entrance passage leading to the inner burial chamber. There is a low shelf on the northern side of the passage (on the right in my photo).

Bottom right photo: inside the tomb, the central chamber is lined with large stone slabs, and a large stone pillar made of blue schist stands in the shadows to the right of the doorway.

It’s my birthday today! 🎉 If you see this post, can you share it? My husband and I have a project live on Kickstarter right now (It’s a collaborative queer historical art zine!) 🏳️‍🌈 Here it is! www.kickstarter.com/projects/tap... (My art + some mockups~)
A photo of a small part of my watercolor painting for the zine, of two Muslim men kissing in the palace grounds of the Alhambra, during the Medieval period. Both men are Black, with Ousmane (the one with a full turquoise headscarf) slightly lighter and warmer toned than his partner, who has a full beard and white and gold clothing. Behind them are intricate warm brown tile details, referenced from the actual Alhambra.  A mockup of the finished art book, showing an open watercolor and mixed media spread of two gay male cowboys (a Black man dressed in red and a Mexican man dressed in blue), riding horses across a mountainous range, with a close up of them kissing. Other previews are scattered around, like the cover showing a detailed illustration of two Métis men hiding behind a tree being demure and cute, two Mughal women about to kiss in a vibrant patterned background, and a historical French scene of two sapphics climbing into a fishing boat together. Art featured are previews of the other artists’ work in the project (links to their portfolios on Kickstarter!)

Fell off t'internet for a while. Well, stopped posting. Minor health scare, the winter sads, the state of the world *gestures forlornly*. Feeling very small and insignificant. But Spring is Springing, and (for a change) the sun is out so not feeling quite as lost, today.
A round green pot filled with purple and white violas and small yellow daffodils sits on a black and white circular mosaic table.  There are two matching chairs either side. It's sunny.

Catching up with the VOD (Pix's POV) from the GIGGS first D&D session that streamed last night. Would have watched it live, but Grublin 1 wanted to go and see Iron Lung (and none of his friends were around to go with him, so I got drafted in!) Thoroughly enjoyed the film, by the way!

Autism and ADHD diagnoses are hard enough to access anyway, often taking years, and then support after is generally non-existent for autistic folk who are considered able to function with minimal support and medication for ADHD is often the only support ADHDers are offered.

This. I'm Gen X, and yes, I had a feral childhood. As an undiagnosed AuDHD-but-very-academic child with a very complicated relationshipwith my mother, I was an outcast, so I have significant amounts of trauma. Yet I still felt like I had a future. Today's teens don't feel that.

One of the really difficult things about being an old auDHD git who still loves gaming whilst also loving crochet and gardening is that there's very few people out there that would even consider being friends with me.

Whatever you might think of Maduro, the seizure and kidnapping of a head of state takes us to a very dark place. Vast, arbitrary, extra-legal power, which could be exercised almost anywhere, regardless of the character of the target government.

This evening, Grublin 2 and I have made gluten-free cinnamon buns that actually worked and tasted pretty damn good! G2 is turning into a pretty confident baker. First time working with psyllium husk powder. Essential for a proper dough, but oh boy is it absolutely revolting to start with!
A tin of gluten free cinnamon buns with a cream cheese glaze sat on top of a cooker hob. Three of the buns have been removed and devoured!
