Going to start packing today for some catsitting duties, this time while working from someone else’s place. Big test of work laptop and by the time I’m back home worst of months work will be over.

Afternoon nap, hurrah!! Now making Mujadara and salad. Been the day I needed. Hope same for everyone.

time for celeb traitors

I really need to stop waking up at 1am :(

Ie. It’s 3am and I don’t feel good but I’m awake and considering getting up and making edits to something I finished yesterday before the data updated…

Bad start to month.

I am horrified by the images of a mosque in Peacehaven burning after a suspected arson attack. Everyone should be able to worship free from fear and terror. Islamophobia is totally unacceptable. Those who spread hatred and incite violence against Muslim communities must stop.

The cafe next to the lyric theatre is awesome. Worth going to Hammersmith for. Ta to @feemcbee.bsky.social for the heads up!!

Train conductor just announced no working toilets on train. Said he'd registered it before train left but noone replied "it is what it is"

Blustery day, isn't it? Here's the National Grid: Live generation data. Wind and solar are generating 74.2% of our electricity. Gas is generating 13.1%. And yet our household electricity prices are pegged to... the volatile price of gas. Which is the basis on which the right attacks... renewables.

Pip desc made me very uncomfortable, specifically nose, gelt, sticky fingers and 10% cut. Interested in Nova Centurian, but I can still not like that phrasing. My serious ish comment for the month

Off to Dracula today, one of few trips during busy work month. Had such a dramatic week, looking forward to getting out.

RIP Brian Patten. He wrote one of my fave poems.

Wider than non-immigrants? Why?

Clearly wasn’t paying attention in Alien: Earth, because it took me way too long to notice Ade Edmondson

Only by us becoming the populist right can the populist right be defeated. Or something.

Once fell asleep at a work presentation about ID cards and what they might help (and what other country's did). Absolutely got called out by my boss. I have no idea why that's on my mind.

Aww; metro.co.uk/2025/09/23/l...

absolutely fucking insane

Reform’s new position on indefinite leave to remain is even more extremist than Donald Trump’s crackdown on US immigration. If any of Reform’s political opponents fancied saying they publicly, that might be nice. Handily, it’s even true.

I twanged my back and somehow hurt my Achilles heel. Still made potato buns, helped fix the oven and played some Diablo (got my HC char to end of campaign). Doped up on painkillers now

As of the end of August, the whereabouts of two-thirds of more than 1,800 men detained at Alligator Alcatraz during the month of July could not be determined by the Miami Herald.

My friend just used the phrase, “When the world was normal bad.”

Time to Ozzy, 3h (fingers crossed) Also time to Rubi. But let's face it, she doesn't care if I'm alive!

ah they all just think being personally unpopular is the same as being oppressed lmao

Your Party co-leaders in major row as Sultana accuses Corbyn of running ‘sexist boys’ club’

Your Party has already fallen to internal fighting regarding an identity politics issues. Speed running the left wing political arc.

Meeting @copperbird.bsky.social in town today for unusual theatre trip. She suggested maybe popping into FP and I almost forgot buying comics in non-digital is a thing (there are some trades I want but unlikely to get them today). Also going on NCBD is wild.

The Deck of the HMB Endeavour - inks detail... #processstuff

Was getting worried Truffle hadn’t come back in after morning run around. On a hunch I went to check his fave snooze spot and there he was, fast asleep. Had a quick cuddle and let him.

Today I will be mostly watching Masterchef Australia and playing Hades II on the steamdeck (did a diablo4 dungeon but no real point ahead of s10)

Stop Trump Coalition today: “After seeing the UK’s largest far-right demo [on Sat], it is even more essential to turn out to protest against Trump’s state visit. Starmer’s response to this disgusting display was too little, too late...We do not want our [Govt] to trade away our democracy & decency.”

So my eyes have changed considerably. Back to one longsighted one short. Hate this.

Eye test today though. Always feel it’s something I’ll just… fail. Glasses are slightly broken though so I need to get a new pair. So far successfully let Truffle out and in and fed him. Going well!

Using the opportunity of having multiple tv subscription services to… watch iPlayer (this may change tomorrow, since I discovered Prime has Masterchef Aus)

I will have to find him...

Just remembered I’m in a new Too Good To Go location while catsitting. Time to browse!!

Keep seeing good offers on flights on holidays to US and thinking ‘no thanks’. Grateful I saw so much of the country previously.

Elon, speaking at the Tommy Robinson march today: “This is a government against the people and not for the people, this is why everyone is gathered here today…we don’t have another four years…there’s got to be a dissolution of parliament” And the government just…continues to use X.

Absolutely !!!insane!!! to me that the UK government, lobby and newspapers litigate at length every minor infraction by the BBC, rival newspapers, or what some random columnist has posted. But all of them just carry on not even commenting about this media owner. He’s not hiding, he’s telling you!
