I found this setting REALLY helpful, and bluesky is so woke there are people on here who will not interact with your post - or even block you - for not using it (this is a feature not a big in my view)

Look this is like trying to choose a favourite child. There are so many great ones! Many even posting on bluesky! But I'm going to go for Simon Bisley, the fluidity and drama of his work is so beautiful, and he packs in so many references

One of the things I love about my @prudenceandthecrow.bsky.social subscription is the little fabric sleeves the books come in. Because the books get shelved the sleeves are essentially a very slow fat quarter subscription, and have so far been incorporated into cushions, a dog bed, and much more
This month's book came in a very bright sunflower sleeve

Lots of people commenting about the number of anchors on the branding for this year's #LDConf. the anchors made sense to me because we're at the seaside. Far fewer people commenting on the large number of satanic crosses...
The colourful branding for this conference, including anchors, flowers, various basic shapes, and upside down crucifixes

An addition to the badges on the strap of my conference bag this #LDConf: @acmcgregor.bsky.social gave me the Freddy Kruegar one. The other one that needs explanation is the minion: @nickdacosta.bsky.social & @fgraham.co.uk also have these because we're apparently @markpackuk.bsky.social's minions
From top to bottom, the badges are:

A black and gold bat emblazoned with "stay spooky".
A green heart on which Freddy Kruegar proclaims "you're dreamy".
A black heart surrounded by hands in the flag colours of various queer flags.
A multicoloured libby bird.
Gus the minion with a teddy bear on his head.

Today, I shall be mostly feeling
Me: I don't get it. I thought I was doing a lot better than I was a few years ago. I'm like 10 times more on top of things than I used to be. How does everything feel terrible now? 

The Tiny Me in OSHA-approved Hi-Vis Gear Who lives in my brain and pulls all the levers: Boss, it's the fascism. You're completely gunked up with cortisol due to the fact that your entire daily life is now underscored with a haunting awareness of the rapid erosion of your rights, dignity, and any and all social safety nets, and you're also bearing witness to the most vulnerable people immediately being persecuted. This creates a natural stress response that basically means you're going to continue having memory and organizational problems, as well as emotional imbalances.

Me: BUT I HAVE A BULLET JOURNAL AND I MEDITATE NOW.

Tiny OSHA Me: BOSS, THE FASCISM.

Payday Treat arrived: because I'm skint at the mo it cost me a whole £2.70. Full of little anecdotes about her mates - Coral Browne and "Vinny" among them - i don't think it's going to be a reference I'll refer to a lot, but more of a fun memoir by one of my favourite actresses

Made this to reply to somebody who was saying that their kid didn't get ADHD meds for years because of all the ppl "with very mild symptoms indeed" who "just wanted more time in exams" ahead of his kid in the queue, because OBVIOUSLY the problem there is the other kids who suffer, not the system 🙄
The cartoon of Rupert Murdoch with a big plate of cookies, a white man in a hard hat with one cookie, and a brown man with no cookies at all.

In the original, by Denis Lushch, Rupert is pointing at the brown man and saying to the white man "careful mate, that foreigner wants your cookie". In this version by me the word "foreigner" has been replaced with "kid with adhd"

I bought 4 at once: (I'd had a record player for a good 8 or 9 years by the time I got a stereo that could play CDs and I knew what music I liked. I got these in a French hypermarket on the way home from a school trip to Switzerland with the spending money I hadn't spent in Switzerland)
