Just believe the women. Fuck the files@

An oil still life experimenting with brighter colour. All of these objects came from charity shops along the street near where I live, including the tie-dye cloth. The jug seems to be from the '20s (a survivor). The painting is still in the studio hanging on the wall. #art #oilpainting #stilllife

We had tinned Satsuma pieces today, not had them for years. Brought back childhood memories of having this at my Grandparent's with ice cream.

Daughter is cooking a halloumi & veg rice dish with peri peri seasoning and it smells delicious. I was skeptical about peri peri but I think I'll enjoy it.

'Made in Manchester' is still a top ten English history bestseller at Waterstones.

This year has been the most challenging for 16 years. I feel emotionally & physically exhausted by it. I can deal with issues one at a time but multiple issues all at once are overwhelming. I feel like my trauma has been triggered, I'm on edge all the time. Just need this to stop.

Concerned about A.I, so many accounts on social media apps are fake, using A.I photos and videos. It's a huge risk for vulnerable people of all ages, it's being used by criminals to target vulnerable people & social media orgs need to be tagging & flagging accounts that are fake or fake content.

Senators on the brink of retirement who lived full, wealthy lives and never feared the loss of their own healthcare voting for their constituents to die from their inability to afford the same is treasonous

Today I was surprised to find I was attending a compliance meeting for suspected deprivation of capital. Turns out the D.W.P can't critically think. I've been so stressed about going in, if they'd just used their brains, I would not have needed to attend at all.

Painted tonight instead of sketching and actually pretty pleased. This went from being “the ugliest thing I’ve ever seen and made in my entire life” to “oh, oh, this turned out pretty good!” 😂 I love art. #art #painting #oils

Anyone kiss their dog Goodnight? Kiss on the head & "Night night baby."

Looking forward to our curry night tonight. Daughter's Halloumi, Chickpea & Spinach Curry. Just what's needed on a chilly day.

In America, the president fights to let folks starve, and the Supreme Court just handed him a temporary win. The guardian of the people triumphs in abandoning them to hunger. #SCOTUS

Hey! Calling all Wonder Women! We all are sisters…pulling together with one spirit. 50 years ago today the first episode of the series Wonder Woman aired.

Trump arrives in FL for another weekend of parties and golf while his attorneys fight in the Supreme Court to deny food to SNAP beneficiaries despite a court order.

Saw a photo of how Chump decorated the Oval office with gold everywhere. My Glaswegian Mum would have said, "He's got the taste of an onion."

Dealing with UC stuff again today, forcing me to come in again with my bank statements. I had an absolute mare trying to find my downloads, thank goodness for my daughter helping me. How on earth do older people navigate this?

My bestie sent me a message last night, she wants to give us a Supermarket gift card as a Christmas present. So we can have a lovely Christmas food wise. I think that is so thoughtful.

X is absolutely horrendous right now, TEMU Elmo has been ramping up the algorithm to favour Right Wing and Extremist accounts. I'm going to try to be here more.

I've written my Christmas Cards out. Spurred on by a #Pwme friend who said she was pacing for Christmas. Now I just need to finish getting some final gifts.

When you find more 💩 to sort out... Grrrrrrrrrrrrrr

Happy Halloween 💀

From my window today I saw around 12+ birds fly into the garden. It was a mixture of Blue Tits & Long Tailed Tits, the latter I've never seen here before. Lovely to have seen so many new Birds, Bees, Moths & Butterflies this year.

I quite like this...it works for any country. Social media. Politics and the media in general. 1/

Watching PanAm, David Harbour did a passable British accent but then he tried to do Liverpudlian & went full on Dick Van Dyke from Mary Poppins. 🤣

X/Twitter is really not a happy space anymore. There's so much abuse & anger.

😽😽😽

Woke up utterly exhausted today. I had breakfast : coffee, then fell asleep. Been headachy & cogfoggy for the rest of the day. Just one of those days, innit.

I've been wanting to see one of these for years & suddenly as Lola went outside, I saw this hovering around the Lavender. My eyes have filled up, I never thought I'd see one. Totes Emosh 😢 Terrible photo, fast moth. Great experience.
