I think we all agree that Anne Shirley is AuDHD. But do we also agree that both the Cuthberts are autistic?

How to prepare for the 5th heatwave this year: - There is nothing more you can do - The tiny fan you panic bought does nothing - It will only get worse now - We have destroyed the world and the eventual societal collapse is our collective punishement - Ice cream

It has been hot and dry and unbearable for weeks. The ONE DAY we plan to go to the beach on purpose… rain. You’re welcome, plants.

When you are young—far too young for such an important decision—you must choose an orange cartoon cat. Many choose Garfield or Heathcliff. A few choose What’s Michael. But now, we are in a crisis point because Ricky Gervais has debuted a new cartoon that includes an orange cat. Talk to your kids.

North Wales is gorgeous, Niko is mostly being brilliant and only somewhat of a whingebag, a glorious time is being had. At the risk of stating the obvious, going somewhere stunningly beautiful with someone you love very much is very enjoyable!

My self esteem has been such a ✨shitshow✨ lately but like… my little boy sees me like this? And that’s so nice?

We are going to Wales tomorrow and I still haven’t told the boy. Or packed.

After my fourth miscarriage I asked for advice. “Just relax and try to enjoy the conception process.”

A question from Reddit that I'll answer here: "What's the most unhinged thing a doctor has said to you with a straight face?"

Went to Bucklebury. Had lunch with some new friends.

Last night I completed five separate pieces of uni work - incredible how much brain I have left after a day where I didn’t have to work.

Stop calling me an amateur. I've been doing this for decades. I'm incompetent.

Today I remembered that “bone-eating-snot-flower-worm” is on the Wikipedia list of heptasyllabic words.

As per usual The Daily Tism has skipped on writing original satire and instead has just followed me around for a couple of days.

Median UK voter in 2026, as predicted by Hugh Laurie some decades ago:

Someone who understands brains: Why has my brain been whispering “Satan’s most highly favoured gimp” on a loop in my head for the best part of a hour?

I bought sparkly printable sticker paper on a whim a while ago and it’s just… in my office. I should make some King Frog stickers, just for japes.

I fear nothing I draw will ever improve on my masterpiece: King Frog.

I saw at least one person in a pointy witch’s hat at Lacock today.

In the spirit of ruminating less and doing more, I’m issuing myself an unofficial "Drawgust" challenge to do some crap little drawings every day in August. We are ignoring accuracy and perfection! We are embracing wonkiness and awkwardness and wibbly lines! We are not obsessing over worthiness!

I have to use ChatGPT for work and today it said “I’m autistic myself.” No. “You” are not a person. Stop telling me I’m “making you smile”. It’s not humanising “you”, it’s insidious as shit.

Every time I think "Maybe I'm ready to graduate therapy?" I find another unlabelled can and think "This one can't POSSIBLY also be full of worms?" But it's always worms. Worms all the way down.

Coming soon: a new dating show, exclusively for medium-intelligent, medium-attractive, medium-income, medium-height participants. Bang Average, only on E4.

Film you've watched more than 6 times (hard mode: no franchises)

Today's "What if?" What if *all* species showed female-based size dimorphism where there is a biological preference for larger, stronger females and smaller, more agile males? Like with some arachnids/fish/insects/birds? Would men be dinky, decorative little gymnasts? Would I be even more enormous?

I finally got around to ordering a disabled persons railcard - I really do not make the most of all the cripple perks the Daily Mail seems to think I'm exploiting. Goes without saying I'd prefer fully functional legs, anyone offering?

If I WAS one of my grandparents 100 years ago I'd be an egg. But if I was myself, 100 years ago, with my grandparents' jobs, I'd be a physiotherapist, an accountant, an opera singer or a warrant officer. I'll be a singing fat lady, thanks.

Enough “what would you do on the commune questions” If you got sent back 100 years and were given your grandparent’s job, what are you doing?

Last night’s dream: I fucked Ted Mosby (yes, from How I Met Your Mother) and his improbably large and girthy hog *snapped clean off*.

Went to a Life Sculpting class. Made a cool lady about it.
