Literally just finished drafting a short story about rambunctious juvenile seals (with a supernatural twist) and these guys start invading Wellington. You really don't want what I'm working on right now to self-actualise 😬 #AmWriting #horror #humour #Oamaru #NeverTrustAPenguin

@rossthesedays.bsky.social hello stranger! It's been a minute! Just wanted to let you know "multi-disciplinary homosexual" has made my year. You've officially beat The Vampire Lestat's "non-discriminating" - but shhh, I don't want to get kicked out of the vampire club. Oh wait, this is public 🦇

Incoming rant and pep talk: Can we PLEASE stop glibly talking about the end of humanity on prime time news? It's the exact opposite of everything I was taught as a journalist. If you were going to make a claim of that magnitude that would frighten a vast chunk of the population, you needed to

Oh HELL no! Our gen is the one with enough info to realise the scaremongering created by a badly reported study linking HRT with cancer was bollocks. We stopped whispering about 'the change', learned, and got help. You will pry my sanity hormones out of my cold dead hands.

You know what we don't talk enough about? Queen & Annie Lennox/David Bowie rehearsing 'Under Pressure' in 1992. So much going on! Everyone's clothes, Bowie with a lit cig throughout, where Annie PROPER GOES FOR IT, George Michael singing along in the background. The amazing vocals. Yes, please!
