Ah FUCK. I think my car insurance payment is going to get declined because there’s not enough room on my credit card. I cannot fucking get ahead.

I think it’s time for a nap.

Thing is, I know some people will get angry that I've reposted this, but from it I will probably gain 40ish followers & one of them might buy one of my books then read it in 2034 & tell their friends about it, leading to the knock-on effect that my books earn me a full-time living prior to my death.

This is on my list to get in 2026.

THREAD. A collection of photographs of excellent horses and ponies I have met on walks. You will find the captions to each photo in the alt text.

Alas, have not found any more awesome cheese hiding on the fridge shelves. At this point it looks like the holiday meal will be a bottle of merlot that I found living in one of those 12 pack bottle carrier bags that’s been sitting in the same place since I moved in. I went to clear it out & voila!

When you haven't pissed off your photographer, Vanity Fair does this.

THREAD. My parents' cat Bridget vanished. As the weeks dragged on they became ever more worried, so to distract himself my dad began to paint Bridget's adventures, imagining her travelling through time and popping up at some of art & music's most important moments. I've collected his work here...

Ugh. A friend of mine keeps asking ChatGPT about her health symptoms and then basing her actions on that advice and I just want to yell at her like “oh HELL NO!” but she doesn’t see why I think this is a terrible, *horrible* idea. I just….

Happy holidays everyone Winter sprite and Yule goat, gouache on paper

Cher will also be on Saturday Night Live tonight.

Christmas special robots! Festive versions of old favourites - for example, Unicornbot! Unicornbot loves Christmas! It gets a special paint job for the parties and accessorizes with some new earrings (which is impressive, given it has no ears).

Just to remind you that the livestream of the solstice sunrise from Newgrange starts 12 hours from now. heritageireland.ie/visit/newgra...

Happy Yule ✨

Whoa ran my phone battery down to 1%. I don’t think I’ve ever done that before.

Day 20 is Blueberry Imp. A delightful black tea blend. I sweetened it with honey from the Whistlestop Cafe. The food was great but the town was worryingly racist. I'm still listening to Brigands and Breadknives, its relaxing and carries you a long like a lazy river. #booksky #teasky ☕️🫖🍵 💙📚 🎧📚 🪐📚

This studio awards-season email is really matching the current mood in a way I’m not sure they intended.

Can you hire someone to clean one specific room in your house? Once upon a time your heroine blithely went to go make coffee one morning only to find most of the kitchen counter between the microwave and the stove, including the sink, absolutely covered in spiderlettes. There must’ve been an egg.

TW: #selfharm #cutting Breaking down boxes and, NGL, with yesterday’s stresses about finances I held the box cutter in my hand and stared at it speculatively for a good 30 seconds before my better angels shook off the mood and returned to work. Every god damn day is a new adventure

I just posted the next section of "Old Lady Lloyd" for next Monday -- please help me get a new mic!

If AI is supposed to be making things more streamlined, and results in a loss of jobs for actual real people, then shouldn’t there be UBI so those people can look into doing things AI cannot do?

oh if you want to see some REAL ableism and fatphobia, check out Dan Savage's book Skipping Towards Gomorrah where he goes to a convention dedicated to "improving the quality of life for fat people" to gawk at them and concludes that fat people are weird and gross bsky.app/profile/psia...

Loose leaf pu-erh and pu-erh tou cha. Notice the different in the color of the liquor. Loose leaf is more delicate and nuinaces and the tou cha is more bold and earthier. #gongfucha #cha #tea #agedtea #darktea #puerh #teaeducation #teasky

"This promise of an AI future, is really just a collective anxiety that wealthy people have about how well they're gonna be able to control us in the future." - @tressiemcphd.bsky.social with an absolute mic drop moment about AI bullshit. Incredible words. Listen to all of it!

Is it weird to be anxious about surgery a month out? I was doing fine with the whole thing until someone on the bariatric forums on Reddit posted a shot of their torso with incisions. Granted they had twice as many as I will have, and theirs was done by robot. But I’m suddenly really freaked out!

Apparently past!me was a little cheese squirrel, and tucked away more noms in the back of the fridge. Today’s find as I was cleaning off the second shelf in prep for liquid diet? A log of chèvre. It says “best by” a date in mid-November, so I better eat it now if I’m going to eat it at all.

Good LORD. 😮

Is rain. 🌧️ ☺️

The opioid panic in this country results in many people, particularly the elderly, not receiving appropriate treatment. It's particularly upsetting to hear some doctors say that opioids are never needed. Pain is real and opioids are often the best treatment with the least side effects.

Sudden urge to have roasted cauliflower for breakfast? What the hell? Bodies are weird. Just…weird. Knees are and forever will be terrorists though. I think it’s time for meds and then back to bed until this huge urge for cruciferous vegetables subsides. Sheesh.
