Rosie Fiore @rosiefiore.bsky.social · 28/09/2026Last night I dreamed we were all telling each other to insert rectangles of tinfoil into our shoes and were taking special pills to stop the government from forcibly putting AI into our brains and I realise I should probably eat less late night cheese. 012

Rosie Fiore @rosiefiore.bsky.social · 31/12/2025Bought myself this dragon brooch in Trafalfar Square today. This is the energy I'm taking into 2026. A little bit glitzy, with wings.... and considerable fire power if required. 020

Rosie Fiore @rosiefiore.bsky.social · 02/10/2025I'm a regular swimmer at the ladies' pond and have of course filled out the consultation. What I want to know is... how would they police it? For women who look a bit masculine, will there be a genital check?! Preposterous and hateful. 1171

Rosie Fiore @rosiefiore.bsky.social · 14/08/2025I am a feminist and all, but sometimes I wish someone would pop into my garden to marvel at how beautifully I hang up washing: neatly, by type of clothing and owner, so it can be folded straight off the line and returned to cupboards.

Rosie Fiore @rosiefiore.bsky.social · 27/02/2025Working with students on a job spec, I was stunned by this example of quadruple tautology: "Ability to self-reflect on yourself personally" "Reflect" suggests looking inward, so "self-reflecting on yourself personally" suggests navel gazing that may well turn you inside out... 010
Rosie Fiore @rosiefiore.bsky.social · 14/02/2025My work life is currently so insanely busy, I have to use every spare minute. That's what I should have said to the cleaner who walked into a meeting room at 6pm to find me face down on the carpet. I was squeezing in my daily yoga practice. And that's my story and I'm sticking to it. 140
Rosie Fiore @rosiefiore.bsky.social · 04/02/2025You should be so proud my lovely. It's a wonderful book. Now let's find it a home! 110

Rosie Fiore @rosiefiore.bsky.social · 11/01/2025I have an enormous p*nis on my car roof. I'd like to say it's because I'm interested in ancient history and it's a tribute to the Cerne Abbas Giant. But the truth is I have a 15-year-old son and that's all the explanation you need. Eye roll emoji. 120
Rosie Fiore @rosiefiore.bsky.social · 09/01/2025When I type my first name at speed, it inevitably comes out as Orise. I've decided I rather like it. Maybe it's an exhortation: "O-Rise!" Taking that typo energy into the new year. 130
Rosie Fiore @rosiefiore.bsky.social · 07/01/2025Like death and taxes, it is an unassailable law that once you've packed away the Christmas decorations, heaved the box into the loft and smugly sat down with a cup of tea, you will spot two baubles under a bookcase. Every jingling time. 010

Rosie Fiore @rosiefiore.bsky.social · 31/12/2024I'm probably stronger and more flexible, but I haven't "transformed my body". That said, I have learned to drop into a calmer, quieter state the minute I sit on the mat, I have learned the stretches that ease the pain of the body or heart. > 120
Rosie Fiore @rosiefiore.bsky.social · 31/12/2024This is me completing 366 days of yoga in 2024. I didn't miss a single day. I practised in friends' homes, on a stone floor in 40-degree heat in San Vincenzo and on a grotty nylon hotel carpet in Hull. I fitted it in at 5am or 11pm, depending on the pressures of the day, but I did it. > 170
