More people in positions of privilege need to do this. Shame on the BBC joining the rise in fascism by punching down on trans folk.

Once more, joy has fallen victim to the marauding cat. Yes, the vase of flowers was strategically placed there to put him off jumping up there. No, it clearly did not work. Yes, I will probably have to increase his gabapentin to make up for that arthritic hip extension. Yes, wee bastard/I 🥰 him.

Refuse to marry them?

"Go big or don't come home" said Mrs Beaver.

First year selling my art at Christmas without the Other site, where most of my sales came from, as well as losing US orders to new tariffs, so it'll be a tough one - I put huge work into every order, so even if you can't buy, shares help get them in front of eyes.

I was wearing a mask when that woman in the shop walked up behind me close enough for our armless cuddle to take place. Another moment in the past few years when I've been very happy to wear a FFP2. Even though my asthma doesn't like it.

I took a break and came back to it. It hasn't got any better and I have a strong suspicion it was made by Christians 😄

The woman in this morning's crap Christmas movie is getting a massage while wearing a waffle gown AND the masseuse is wearing disposable gloves. Whut?

I have some special treats for the Fluke heads on Saturday afternoon! When I asked the lovely human that is Jon Fugler for a remix I couldn't get my hands on, not only did he give me the goods, but also a 2025 rework of a classic. Now, let's get it right......... #TSH www.lovewillsavetheday.fm

Standing in a shop I sense something behind me. I turn around... well.. I turn my shoulder about 4" to discover I'm now slightly pressed into the woman who has walked up behind me. She keeps standing there, with my shoulder resting against her.

Everyone should start carrying whistles and blow them at gobshites who do this.

It's happenin'....

Had an honest chat with my therapist about where my mental health is at the moment. She told me that she is reducing my session fee for a while so I can afford to keep seeing her until I can regulate again. Then we laughed at something inappropriate together.

😂 😂 😂

You will be visited by 3 spirits.

Of course as soon as my head hit the pillow I was hit by anxiety, couldn't get to sleep until after 2am and had a ptsd dream. Fuckingfuckedyfuck. Tomorrow was meant to be my last trauma therapy session but it seems I might have to rethink that plan.

Other chronically ill folk will appreciate the irony in being turned down for disability only to finally get an abnormal blood result 💀. I'll never recover fully at this point, but hopefully if I can tolerate this treatment it will ease things a bit 🤞 #ChronicPain #ChronicIllness

Comfortable with saying it out loud because of the international support they have been shown.

Much needed mental health weekend with himself. I stayed in bed all day yesterday trying to deal with burn out. Then we went to the place I want to live*. *but can't afford 😄 Alt text: historic Irish village by the sea.

@louiseann.bsky.social @leifb73.bsky.social turns out my boots draw dicks on the floor. Hairy dicks with no balls.

Engagement farming accounts. One reason why I don't miss facebook. "A little boy clutched his toy Dublin Bus." The ai is in the detail 😂

As a carer, and a novice autistic photographer, getting outdoors into the ‘quiet‘ (wildlife is rarely quiet 🤣) of nature has a lot of meaning for me It’s an essential, not a luxury These are some of my favourite photos as they celebrate the ‘recharge’ nature can give #PhotoHour #EastCoastKin

Mr R reporting in from the other room about the (hungry) cat. "he's kinda like... *meooooowww!*" A very well timed comment from the cat there 😄

Little reminder to myself. Original author unknown.

Mr R round for the first time this week & delighted to find the house decorated for Christmas. All pleased with himself when he got ambushed under the mistletoe he had failed to spot 😄

As someone with ADHD I think it's a mix. Some of us inherited it & some are presenting as ADHD through negative brain development experiences. Both can be disabling, there is no hierarchy.

Can’t be bothered to search it. Has anyone else done FIFA giving Prince Andrew the babysitter of the year award?

I migraine tested some plain yoghurt last night. I haven't been able to tolerate yoghurt for over a decade & really miss it.

Every time I rub my eyes I think of this video. Which is unfortunate because I have chronically itchy eyes.

Look guys, if the gays can boycott the Eurovision, the very very very least you can do is boycott FIFA

Badger loved to gaze into a moonlit night, Seeing what he could see in low dancing light. One glance wasn’t enough to take it all in, And to truly see what was hidden within. With patience, he studied each shadow, each hue, And saw more with his heart than his eyes ever knew. #ColdMoon #FullMoon

Me too squirrel, me too..

Is anyone else foundered today? Every time the heating goes off I'm cold to the bone.

Every time I see a photograph of him I can smell old clothes that have been stored in a damp wardrobe, fusty.

He's had a tough couple of days with his arthritis & a vet visit. So I sit here with him sandwiching the electric blanket between himself & my lap. And I sweat. But look at his liddle kissable cheek! 😍

I have to say, having to retreat to bed this afternoon was cheered considerably by this little set up 😊 ❤️

@jac-wac.bsky.social in place nai! Figured with me having to spend half my days recuperating in bed, I might as well bring some festive cheer into the bedroom 🥳

@jac-wac.bsky.social it's happenin'...

This sore throat is just a sign that I've been overdoing things this week, right? It's certainly not any sort of virus that would stop me getting my scheduled botox in two weeks? Right?... RIGHT?! 😬

I discovered the storage boxes that I like fit perfectly into my embroidery trolley *bites knuckles* 💦

It's a stand-off. He wants the knee but I have to get up and make lunch...

Using snark against disabled people for not using Alt text to accommodate other disabled people, is quite the flex.

They were 8 and 11 years old

There isn't much room for a tree in this tiny house. So it's a skinny artificial tree and as many lights as I could cram onto it 😄

@leifb73.bsky.social just sayin'....

I wonder how many guests have tripped and nearly face planted walking away from this dinner table?

'Mon lads, get 'em out...
