My 14-yo-son has recreated the climax of Back to the Future in gingerbread and I thought you should know.

BIG THANK YOU, to Southampton City Libraries who are now stocking ‘The Shoe Creeper’ in six of their libraries along with the first two Fyn Carter books. Libraries are such important places and parts of our communities. I’m very grateful that my books can be found there 😁📖 #books #libraries #kidlit

Over the next two days I'm doing the very final copyedit on Local Gods before it goes to printing for proofs, and when I think about how much trouble this book gave me and how much I absolutely love reading it now - I don't get tired of it! - my gasts are flabbered, my flabbers gasted to the max

Should you wear a mask if you've got symptomatic flu? YES. If you wear it at home *from the onset of your symptoms*, your family members are much less likely to catch flu from you (but you must avoid unmasked co-sleeping and eating around same table - have your meals alone). 1/

Quarantining incoming flights should have happened way sooner. Races cancelled. Eat Out to Spread the Virus was always a bad idea. Economy above people. And they failed to consider morbidity at all.

“TOO LITTLE, TOO LATE”, VALIDATION FOR PEOPLE WITH LONG COVID The Covid-19 Inquiry has found that the UK Government should have acknowledged Long Covid and made the risks clear to the public. It has found that by Oct 2020 the UK Government knew #LongCovid was a significant health and policy issue.

Now it’s on the official CDC site… they really are losing it. The statements shown directly contradict: - The NIH - WHO - American Academy of Pediatrics - National Academy of Medicine - Every major medical and scientific body in the U.S. and worldwide

Family jewellery is one of the few things you can carry when fleeing war or persecution. The cruelty in this policy is worse than just the financial one. It’s ripping away the remains of family.

Growing concerned that Boo Boo might be the world's most photogenic kitten.

This is disability visibility. Mamdani listened. He didn’t pander or talk over the disabled journalist. He acknowledged his concerns and gave real responses about how he plans to fix them. 1 in 4 Americans has a disability, it’s a huge number of voters. Don’t ignore us!

The richest man in history is a world-historical evil monster, it’s just too on the nose

Such a mystery, what MASS DISABLING EVENT could have happened after 2019 to cause this?

Is this it? Are we finally en route to fix the timeline???

Oh no. You must have hurt someone’s feelings. So sorry though. Disgusted by everyone giving in to him.

We're counting down to the release of our new book Box of Delights: The Story of BBC Children's Television, Richard Marson's immersive 500-page history. Here's a first look at the full cover, illustrated by @gkw.bsky.social. Available in paperback and limited edition hardback from tenacrebooks.co.uk

From MeidasTouch Legal AF: The Convicted FElon DOJ is now deleting court documents on J6 terrorists who have been in trouble with law repeatedly. The DOJ was caught when a judge noticed a document missing on a J6'er, who wanted to bomb Obama's home & was convicted for it. I bet these are ICE now.

‘Guidance from the NHS emphasises that your symptoms could worsen if you've been under stress or if you're more physically active. It adds that people battling long-Covid should "not start exercising again before talking to a GP or specialist"’ www.dailyrecord.co.uk/lifestyle/he...

At this point he needs to resign or be fired.

Such sad news. Sending love to all.

to leave the house, school, and ultimately my identity in who I thought I was becoming before Covid changed everything - I wanted my piece to reflect that. I enjoyed writing this piece, the one word prompt was fun to play with, particularly the play-on-words with the various types of glass imagery

#LongCovidStars 💫From the artist: ‘My piece, Shattered, is a combination of both my love for sci-fi & my experience of having to navigate the fragments of my life Long Covid has broken me into. My experience has taken quite a lot of my life, between my love for theatre, to my ability

I have a fun little short horror in #TremblingWithFear this week. Hope my fellow #ChronicIllness #LongCovidPeeps enjoy this guilt free response to medical gaslighting.

Today, the White House Press Secretary told the country that this ridiculous damn ballroom is “the president’s main priority”…not reopening the government, not lowering the cost of groceries, not lowering the cost of housing, not lowering the cost of healthcare….building a ballroom

I hear the Epstein Ballroom will be illuminated solely by gaslighting.

Genuinely brilliant news, i'm made up!

Updating my LEGO White House

didn't get enough sleep last night and now i'm crying laughing over this

“Sick and elderly Canadians who have refused to end their lives via MAiD have reported being called selfish by their providers” This is happening in Canada Disabled people have assisted dying suggested to them when what they need is care Unsurprisingly, it happens most to those living in poverty

Happy 3rd birthday to the Bournemouth Writing Festival!
