Harry Potter fan who fell into a coma shortly after reading The Deathly Hallows wakes up in 2025

These sound really cool, I might read them! Also - whilst obviously it’s imperative to boycott JK now - I actually hate the idea that you can ‘read these instead, they also contain a wizard’ - as though that is how books work! It isn’t.

When I went a farm on Sunday, there was a baby goats’ revolution and they all broke out of their enclosures. They probably used telepathy to be like “there are more of us, than there are of them”! I got to stroke one and he was sort of golden in colour: this sounds like a dream but it is true

Countless Iranians have died. UK bases being targeted. Energy bills will skyrocket. The British people are against the UK involvement in this war. A vote in Parliament is needed now and it's what Starmer promised when running for leader and pretending he was progressive.

I have never ever in my life been good at ballet - there are people who will verify this - and for that reason I often try to stop. But, I think I can’t. I like it much too much so I have to make peace with just being not good at it. My extensions are really low though.

Dear Daphne, Just to thank you very much for making another lovely fruit cake for us.

Sometimes when you have an inner ear problem and it makes you nearly fall over, the wobbly experience is fun, like a mini fairground ride. This sounds like something people would do for fun in the bygone days when their only toy was a hoop and stick. Or in this case, an ear

This cold virus I have - that recently caused my ear to sort of explode - has also prevented my sleep for many nights, and so it has made everything feel like a strange underwater dream. Hello, funny dream people 👋

I saw an interview with Kristen Stewart a few months ago - she was talking about how films are tested for mass appeal and every scene has to hold mass attention in order to be included - I think it explained to me why huge films often feel eerily insincere

Marvel films are a hollow, clattering mess to me - UNLESS they are Spider-Man. Every Spider-Man film is a perfect delight. I still miss Toby but I love every casting of the dear fellow.

I hate Palantir. May they stay the fuck away from the UK. ✨

I was on the train yesterday and the whole carriage was full of people carrying flowers. It was like being in a cute parallel world where everybody just has flowers. Cheers to all the great mothers across space and time. Cheers to all who celebrate them.🌟

The shipping forecast is so amazing. I’m going to look up how it works.

Anyway. I’m going to draw fairies and listen to something whimsical until I stop vibrating with dread.

When I say “the lives it will take and ruin” I mostly mean the escalating death toll from femicides induced by dehumanisation - but also what it does to the boys: poisoned by bigotry against half of the population of the world, their psyches made brittle. Excruciating

I learned yesterday morning that in 1948, a group of beavers was moved from one region of Idaho to another, using parachutes. Imagine that! Just you look up ti the sky, and lo: they are descending to us🪽

This is the first I’m hearing about putting animals on money and I’m STRONGLY IN FAVOUR OF IT

This is the reality of what AI companies want for the future: where EVERYONE is unable to function without relying on them for "intelligence as a utility." In order for them to sell this to us, they need to convince us our brains are never creative, interesting, able enough.

I was feeling really dreamlike about the storm outside, tonight - then Edmund was like “hey Alice you know what would relax us all? A dead mouse”

fast zombies immediately snapping every tendon in their legs and spending the rest of the apocalypse dragging themselves around

Incels and misogynists obsess over restrictive ideas of ‘biological gender’ as part of their broader preoccupation with organising human identity into a grim taxonomy of trade-able assets.

Hearing about manosphere culture feels like being exposed to radioactivity or pathogens or something. The horrible misery. It feels like being poisoned. I was lucky to grow up shielded from the worst of sexism. It makes me feel crazy, to think of the lives it will take and ruin.

Have a Blast is a miracle of a song

I was in the Lake District briefly in late October, getting a Cinderella pumpkin (this really beautiful type of pumpkin) from the shops and I found a PLUM BREAD LOAF - you’re meant to eat it in slices - I tried to share it with everyone I was staying with. They said no. I ate it all. A whole loaf.

I just spoke to my cat on the phone. It was hilarious!

I was always sure that if Edmund was a human spirit trapped inside a cat (he isn’t, I’ve asked him) - I thought he would be a Victorian ghost. But - I’m learning about Britpop this morning and he LOVES IT. So he might be a 90’s ghost.

This is my new mate. Also, someone threw a strawberry bonbon at me this morning

When we stopped on the way to the New Forest a pony came up to us and nicked two packets of crisps out of our car boot.

I have made three new friends they are called Joanne, Jane and Sandra.

My dreams are haunted by the ballet ‘The Nutcracker’ - it is almost Easter. What is wrong with me?!

Small Prophets is the best thing I have seen on TV in a long time. I’m starting Detectorists tomorrow.

I’m in a ghostly liminal space. This is my postcard from it. I should write a note onto the postcard: “Space is liminal. Hope Cathy and the dogs are keeping well. Send my love to Geoff. x”

I have big plans to build a palace from biscuits: bestowing unto me the power of the grand biscuitect. 🍪 👑💕

🚨 It looks like the UK government is gearing up to upend copyright law in favour of AI companies, legalising the theft of their work. This is despite creatives' huge protests, and despite previous proposals being roundly rejected by the public. Please spread the word. 🧵 1/4

I am not looking for a politician to explain why blowing up 100 little girls is good

Lana Del Rey continues to terrify me. She’s so melancholy it’s like sticking my hands in lava. Why am I doing that on purpose?!

So much of being alive as an adult, is the persistent feeling that all of the adults have - with luminous exceptions - just run away, abandoned us. We have to become the adults that we wish there were. Does every generation feel this? Probably.

The idea of bombing children as a form of “self-defense” is nonsensical and grotesque, but nonetheless it’s the argument the U.S. and Israel have been relying on for years and years. It shouldn’t be hard to take a stance against slaughtering children

The United States is the world's biggest enemy

All I can think about is Gorton and Denton 💚

There’s this tabby who I feed: she’s stray/feral and despises me: she went missing for ages and I became convinced that she had died. Was having the worst thoughts: then at midnight this very night… she lives. She’s totally ok. She still hates me, but that’s just our cool friendship dynamic

Alysa Liu intentionally leading the camera to a trans flag in order to frame it with heart hands queen

Daydreaming that I live in NY and need to pay attention to mayoral snow announcements because of huge blizzards

I like the little cuddly person attached to the stoat, because he is twice her height: implying a giant arctic stoat. I think probably they invented toboggan together when he was her trusty steed

Seeing Alysa Liu makes me want to be a better person
