All parties looking exceptionally funny in the light

Hm.

I haven’t forgotten that some of you used the demise of Fleets as an excuse to put your dicks on the internet

He knows to have Martinelli’s and ice cream in the house before I arrive 🥰

What D’Angelo said Black Messiah means. It came out at the end of 2014 and it was so needed.

No because romance flows from my pen effortlessly. I could write the perfect partner for just about anyone

So in the last few days Labour: - Banned healthcare for trans kids - Let the Royal Mail be sold to a billionaire - Dismissed concerns about City deregulation - Met Georgia Meloni to discuss people seeking asylum - Hosted an anti-abortion group - Cheered on troops who are active in genocide

I didn’t even move in my sleep last night. Just now waking

My niece and nephew refuse to let me eat anything. My niece snatched chicken out of my MOUTH. She’s 18 months 😭

Me reading a book that people hyped up but I gave it -5 stars

Suddenly gripped with the urge to dye my hair white

Anika Noni Rose is perfect, my God.

My nephew has requested a train set so he’s getting a train set

Very proud of me today
