Selling my friend to the lowest bidder

Yup. Every year!

A testament to Douglas Stuart’s writing that I’m rushing to get this on release day because I very much dislike reading hardbacks

crying in the bath

birthdays come back around too quickly - 38 🎈

treated myself to a new phone for my bday and this is the first pic I took

So I’ve just watched episode 1 of The Pitt, in what way isn’t this just ER. (Not that I’m complaining because ER is in my top 5 shows of all time)

two for one

Just got to be one of the first people in the world to hear the debut album of TOMORA and then listen to a Q&A. As a huge Aurora fan this was everything 💖

When in Dublin

not a hotel but also not my own place

I’m in Dublin so I’m open to kissing some Irish boys fyi

these chapter lengths are going to kill me

the irony of the only book I’ve DNFd is a book called ‘how to read a book’

The doctor at the clinic today told me I was beautiful.

not that you asked but I finished The Lord of the Rings and did a tiny little review of the The Return of the King The emotional pay off to this story is powerful, tears were shed. The themes here are so strong, the message of self righteousness of evil shines through here

Shedding tears at Sam and Frodo’s reunion with the fellowship

in between sets of push ups because I’m too unwell to go to the gym 😢

Wuthering Lows!

I would have posted an ass pic but it’s pancake day today and mine just doesn’t qualify for that

Just been told my promotion has gone through, who says Friday the 13th is all about bad luck. (I’ve probably just jinxed myself)

my little back progress pic

It wasn’t chest day but here’s some tit

After finishing The Fellowship of the Ring I can see why it’s said this story is unfilmable. Not to denigrate the movie which frankly is still a masterpiece but it entirely changes the essence of the story. Can’t wait to read the next two books

the absolute hulking tits on some these men at the gym today. I’m so weak

When I choose to post a picture of my own body, I choose to do it in the way that I’m most comfortable to do so. Taking my photo and altering the setting to show more of my body or highlight parts I chose not to show is a violation. Don’t do that! Some people just have to ruin the fun

finally getting around the reading LoTR (I read the fellowship as a young teen) - my greatest disappointment so far is learning the the pipeweed the hobbits are so fond of is not cannabis but just nicotine. I always imaged Gandalf, Merry and Pippin to just be high as fuck throughout the movies 🥲

Januaries reading - although not yet rated as I’m finishing it today, Young Mungo is a must read. If you’re queer and working class you will undoubtedly relate to this character, so much that for me it feels like I’m reading my own teenage diary

Flights to Dublin booked, I’d better find my future husband there!

Oh I am so torn between Jessie Buckley and Renate Reinsve for best actress Oscar! Haven’t yet seen Rose Byrne in If I Had Legs I’d Kick You

Just finished seeing all three Lord of the Rings Extended Editions in the cinema in the space of a week. A perfect start to 2026

I’m reading The Exorcist and I’m obsessed that doctors diagnosed Regan’s early demonic possession symptoms as ADHD. Explains so much.

Oh, she looks puss! And thank you to The Traitors because now when I say Celia Imrie is in something new, my friends share the same excitement.

Sorry but Harriet’s attitude at that breakfast was nasty, it’s a game, it’s not that serious. I’m actually glad this was her end which is crazy because just one episode before I was rooting for her

I guess you could say I’m the past particle of hang

is 5:30 too early?

Watched Sentimental Value last night. What a beautifully crafted and acted movie. Very moving I wrote down some basic thoughts, could be right, could be wrong.

If anyone uses Fable and fancies connecting via books fable.co/christopher-...

Books I’ve finished since Sept 2025 Giovanni’s Room The Alchemist Conversations with Friends White Nights The Bell Jar A Christmas Carol Carol Red Dragon Evenings and Weekends Hamnet The Outsider (The Stranger depending on translation) The Great Gatsby Piranesi The Portrait of Dorian Gray

it’s been a minute

Amanda #TheTraitorsUK

Whoever cast this season of The Traitors UK really said this one is for the gays. I don’t know which part of my body aches the most from watching episode 1

Well this is Mondayest Friday to ever have existed

just humbled myself by going to pool and managing to a totally 5 lengths (bear in mind I’ve never had swimming lessons 🥲).. at least my back looks good though

Petition to have Madeline by Lily Allen be inserted into all future performances of Death Becomes Her

finally Friday

Allie X new album tomorrow, recent releases from Florence, Lily Allen, The Last Dinner Party, Joy Crookes, Zara Larson, Lola Young.. we’re being force fed this autumn! I’m putting on so much weight

If anyone actually wants to see Glenn Close in a great law firm show just watch Damages. No notes, she’s basically Miranda Priestly on steroids
