I’ve heard that the reason Doctor Who has been "put on hold" is because they couldn’t get Billie Piper for the special. Are they really so devoid of creativity that none of them could come up with a work around? Would people be disappointed not to see Billie? Yes but Who is used to disappointing…

Is there anybody out there who has a GRC and feels like talking me through the process? I’ve had my declaration witnessed, now if I understand, it has to be taken to a magistrates court for stuff? I’ve not found any clear guidance on what happens with that part and I’d like to know what to expect.

My youngest has finally got into Andy and the Oddsocks on CBeebies. I’ve missed this! We still make scotch pancakes according to Cousin Mac’s recipe that my eldest saw about 6 or 7 years ago (no other way was acceptable after they’d seen that).

Shadows Over Ravenkirk is a Gothic horror serial featuring a trans disaster lesbian investigating her mysterious inheritance in a haunted seaside town. Also she has an adorable tarantula named Samantha Part 1 out now, Part 2 available in September! books2read.com/SOR1

Chapter two has gone off for the scrutiny of Sarah. On to editing chapter 3!

I managed my fastest mile today: 12:09. It felt like cheating as I wasn’t running on an incline for a change though. It ended up being my second fastest 5k but again, cheating because I didn’t have much of an incline very often. Still a slow time for «real» runners but for me it was something.

GNU Anthony Head. And a wail to the heavens. 💔

I'm as wildly disorganised as ever, so this comes a little later than you might expect, but I'm delighted to say, I'll be doing a panel at the Queer The Shelves festival in Nottingham on the 27th Join us there, for some hot sapphic (book) action! www.eventbrite.com/e/queer-the-...

This morning I am struggling to human. Scratch that. This afternoon I am continuing to struggle to be human. But I have a damn fine cup of coffee and have locked myself into editing so productivity is happening. Hope you’re all having a good one and treating yourselves with kindness

I have an intense longing to look over a city again from a rooftop I shouldn’t be on, in the early hours of a drizzly morning, looking at the streets bathed in sodium light. It’s been about 20 years and it’s a sight I’ll probably never see again (curse LED lampposts!) but I’d love to be there now.

TERF goes to the backrooms and it's just gender-neutral toilets

Happy Pride Month!

June 1, 2016, I posted my first horror story to Reddit's NoSleep. June 1, 2026, I'm revealing the cover of my tenth horror book. DEATH IN ITS MANY FORMS 💀 #booksky Cover by @uglybyproxy.bsky.social. Can't recommend him enough! This is my second cover from him. Absolutely wonderful to work with!

I will never forgive the BBC for not giving us a televised series of the Paternoster Gang. Give my my Victorian lesbians and alien friends you fucking cowards!

'No' is a complete sentence.

Unreal Tournament (1999)

I am out of bed. Perhaps my greatest mistake of the day but certainly not my last.

i may be autistic but I actually have a really good sense for how other people are feeling based on their tone. for example, everyone is mad at me all the time

Reminder!

Watching Twin Peaks for the first time and surprised to see a trans character (aired 1990/1991 I believe?). More shocked that so far she doesn’t seem to just be a punchline/joke in general. I really hope I don’t get let down.

I need the MSM to understand that the one and only time I want to hear the name Tony Blair again is in confirmation that he has departed the mortal realms and that the rituals to ensure he never returns have been completed.

How do they rise up.

I love the colour palette/tone they used for Revenge of the Sith. It’s probably my favourite. There’s just something about the way the whole thing looks. It bodes. Maybe it’s something to do with the age I was at the time or whatever, but it’s a vibe. Not my fave Star Wars though. That’s Rebels.

Streaming FTL because I felt like it. www.twitch.tv/snipeandwib

As a lil treato I went to see Mandalorian. It was fun. A cinematic masterpiece that makes you rethink your entire place in existence and will live on as a classic in cinema history for eternity? No. But what is? It was a fun film with bits that made me laugh, Sigourney Weaver,Pedro Pascal and lasers

Quoting to add that I also do 40k art if you have an OC you'd like me to draw :3

Waking up to find Labour making it impossible for trans people to live a normal life with dignity and privacy is not a good feeling* I don’t get how this is the softened version of the guidance. *feeling hopelessness, powerless, worthless and generally upset are generally seen as not great

Life just threw some nasty bills my way so I'm opening up 4 c0mm¡ss¡on slots if anyone fancies some busts! Chuck me a DM if you're interested ♥♥

My stress levels have been so high that my fitness tracker thinks I’ve done some sort of exercise lmao Why stress when you can 💪 POWER STRESS 💪 Yes it’s an in office day. This is a frequent occurrence on office days.

Getting slapped with a Transport Tycoon Deluxe song at the end of S2 E1 of Twin Peaks. I had always assumed it was just something made for the game but I guess not. Those jazzy midi (?) piano tracks live in my head rent free and it was wild to encounter one elsewhere (but played on an actual piano)

Libs are fucking exhausting. Shaming a reform bloke over doing sex work is not a win. Sex work is not shameful. Being a self hating reform wazzock is. Focus on the right thing.

Somebody needs to draw this. Please somebody draw this.

May the Goose of Righteous Fury watch over your morning

Five major publishers and author Scott Turow filed a class action suit against Meta Platforms and Mark Zuckerberg over the company’s AI training practices. It looks like many #steampunk authors could be eligible for the class. We have the details. #genai steampunk-explorer.com/news/publish...

committing a little bit of heresy for daddy

We’re incredibly proud to finally release the trailer for BECK’S END, our upcoming limited series. youtu.be/SBu9vjREjL0?...

GNU Koji Suzuki. You showed us that sometimes the most terrifying things are the most mundane, that it's possible to write a believable present father (& anyone who says otherwise is a liar) & most of all, you don't need to live up to society's expectations of your gender to be successful & happy.

Evergreen headline.

I’m tired, boss. These people suck.

The first draft is done. There’s a lot of editing to do, changes I know I want to make but the bulk of it is done. Sometime in the next few years you will be able to read my weird cyber/steam punk sci-fi thing. If you’re that desperate for something to read anyway.

Five years of HRT today. It’s weird that for one of the most important days of my life there is so little celebration, it feels like it should be a national holiday, international even. So fuck it, made a cake, there should always be cake. Not my finest work but done quickly in dinner break.

Watching Star Wars (A New Hope) with the kids and youngest keeps referring to C-3PO and R2D2 as Cyberman and little Dalek guy, and I can’t unsee it now
