Having just gone through it, I know bereavement & money worries are horrific, & even where mental health is on an even keel, suffocatingly difficult to deal with. If you can, please help this courageous person doing the bravest thing - openly admitting he needs help. Please look after each other.💖

A friend of mine has set up a fundraising page to help with the situation www.facebook.com/james.kopper... I can provide the direct link if you want but if you're on Facebook perhaps you could share it too? Or there's my other site: buymeacoffee.com/drpaullee Thank you so much.

🧵Who Has Walked This Path Before? Who has walked this path before, where worn stones keep their trust? Whose footsteps stirred the shallow ford and vanished into dust? What hopes were carried in their hearts beneath the selfsame sky? What tears were left upon the wind where ash and alder sigh?

Beneath the fallen leaves lies a path shaped by generations now long gone. Every traveller leaves nothing behind but the faintest trace, yet together they have carved these ancient ways into the landscape. This poem is a quiet reflection on walking in their footsteps.

I was speaking with a friend on the phone earlier (I know, shocking! 😱). We shared about our mutual realisations of our own neurospiciness, and how everyone we get on well with, is also neurospicy. And now I think, if you're not "Different", are you even normal?! #Autism #Neurodivergent

🧵3 posts You would never guess where I have been this morning! Tucked away on Front Street at Glasshoughton is one of Castleford’s most unusual historic survivors. This Grade II listed public urinal, dating from the late Victorian or early Edwardian period, is far more than a simple convenience.

This is a Grade II listed Victorian cast-iron urinal, manufactured by Walter MacFarlane & Co. at the Saracen Foundry in Glasgow in the late 19th century. Similar ornate, prefabricated structures, sometimes called "pissoirs" or "Temples of Relief," are found in cities like Birmingham, Bristol, and London. The panels feature intricate geometric and floral designs, though this example shows significant rust and paint peeling. These structures are legally protected as rare examples of historical street furniture,This is a Grade II listed Victorian cast-iron urinal, manufactured by Walter MacFarlane & Co. at the Saracen Foundry in Glasgow in the late 19th century.

Busy today, but can't forget #PhantomsFriday. Another find from my hunt for such things on the Internet Archive, and I must admit this one has a weird premise. Ever wonder what would happen if NBC did a ghost documentary in the 1960's UK, starring celebrity ghost hunters? Yeah. Me neither until now!

I've been plugging away arranging book tour dates. I have 46 confirmed, which is pretty good as I don't have an agent. However, I keep encountering event organisers who assume they do not need to pay authors on a book tour... and I want to discuss that in a thread 1/🧵

Clay "caganers" representing Britain's Prince William (L) and his wife Catherine are displayed at the Santa Llucia Christmas market in central Barcelona December 21, 2011. Catalans hide "caganers", or defecators, in Christmas Nativity scenes to let friends hunt for them during Christmas celebrations

Well, for anyone that cares to look. The figures I had to draw in this instance were in a 14th century church, waiting for the Easter procession & listening to the priests high in the screen that I reconstructed in the drawing.

@onenerdyopinion.bsky.social Sorry to bother you again (honest!). I was wondering if you'd please share the flap (or link in it) below, to allow folk to help Frank the cat continue living at the city bus depot in Exeter, UK. Some upper-level jobsworth wants him gone. 😭 bsky.app/profile/did:...

I've said it before, & no doubt I'll have to say it again, WHY THE FUCK AREN'T THE ONES WHO CAN DO SOMETHING ABOUT IT, DOING SOMETHING ABOUT IT?! What's even the point of having Congress, Senators, Attorneys, Lawyers, whatever the fuck they're supposed to be, if they won't STOP THIS MEGALOMANIA?!
