I’m about to spend a few days in the Lake District with nary a laptop in sight and it’s going to be absolute BLISS (If my agent sees this I’m joking it’s a joke. I’ve got at least seven laptops with me and I’m getting SO much writing done)

Might have had a bit of a breakdown when I realised none of my shorts fit me any more, but the stress of shopping for new ones turned out to be worth it after finding the perfect pair 😎

In January, my family and I avoided eviction thanks to this amazing community. Sadly, we’re in that spot again. We need $1,500 by end of day or must quickly relocate and board our animals (one is my ESA). Any help means the world to me and my family. I tried making a gofundme but it’s in purgatory

We’ve seen a lot of evidence recently that laws mean almost nothing. They can be overturned on the whims of a government or passing moral panic. The beauty of this is that it works both ways. It’s hard not feel utterly fucked by this ruling, but we can (and will) see the tides change again (1/2)

Once again I remind people that laws should not be your guiding heuristic on how you view or treat others. Laws are built on the biased and often bigoted sensibilities of the powerful. Empathy and basic decency (as defined in a way not dependent on anyone's legal status) are a better foundation.

I’m a bit late posting this to Bluesky but in case you haven’t seen already, this week we dropped a whole new book cover AND a whole new name! ✨ so for the sake of clarity: Hi, I’m Leon, creator of Tell No Tales, author of Lover Birds, and now also (as of 3rd July) Listen Closely! (1/6)

This might be a very specific gripe but I do think that if I’m filtering a search for multi coloured rugs and your website shows me pages of black and white options because tEcHniCALly It’S TwO ColOURs you should be punished medieval style

IN MY DEFENCE (while I did listen to an unhealthy amount of Noah Kahan and The Mountain Goats) my top songs are all bangers from gigs that brought me joy this year so I promise I’m hanging in there folks

Spotify Wrapped, my top songs: 1) Things That Look Like Mistakes by Bears in Trees, 2) Apathy is Boring by Bears in Trees, 3) Dirty Imbecile by The Happy Fits, 4) Hot Chocolate by Bears in Trees, 5) Little Chaos by Orla Gartland

Absolutely HOWLING at my Spotify Wrapped because it’s basically just twelve cards straight of “you good buddy?” and I’m sat there thinking they’re about to break down my door for a wellness check when this pops up
