Oh for God’s sake. Tim Curry now. 🙁 Look, Death, if you’re just working through a list of 80 year olds, we as a species have feedback about the order.

Do you know, I’d be hard pressed to name more than two Dolly Parton songs, but she feels like someone who should DEFINITELY have outlived Trump. Just in terms of cosmic balance.

Having a therapist refer to you as a “system” for the first time is weird. It seems rather cold, dehumanising even, but at the same time it acknowledges the reality of - *everyone*, in a way that allows them to breathe. #DID

Just bought a 1950s mimeograph machine on the way home from therapy. Not sure what that says about my mental health.

Okay, look, I appreciate an alert if there is a wildfire NEARBY, but making that much noise inform me *I shouldn’t set stuff on fire* is excessive. 🤨

Oh for goodness sake, Amnesty. You’re not getting the GCs back on side, so all you’ve succeeded in doing is pissing off everyone. Well done rendering yourselves completely irrelevant.

My first (cynical) thought: oh god, we’ve made inspo-porn of disabled raccoons now. My second thought: Jimothy can WHAT, though??

The child just correctly pronounced “ridiculous” for the first time (previously “ridiclyus”) and I’m trying not to cry. 😭

Apparently I can either NOT be severely hypertensive, or have executive function. Hooray.

I am once again begging Hollywood to stop using the Greek alphabet for an Ancient World movie, if they can't afford to even throw a couple of quid at anyone with an inkling of the language. Unless they really think audiences are dying to see THS THDPSSSSPS

What in the actual hell does this even mean? I want to see *precisely* what these institutions have agreed to! And I would certainly want to know that before paying to study there.

Jesus. 35 UK universities quietly- without debate - joined the Ministry of Defence’s “Battlefield Alliance” which seeks to “reorientate academia towards Defence and National Security” They’re destroying the social sciences and humanities while militarising the institutions

A clip from a freight train stopped in a wildfire near Armstrong, Ontario. Thankfully, the crew escaped safely. Wildfire is nothing new but the burning of fossil fuels is making them larger, more frequent and severe.

It is 11.30 on a Sunday night, during a heatwave, and one of our neighbours is in the back garden doing DIY. If you wake the child, that hammer is being put to a new use. 😡

It really is the week for ghastly right wing politicians not breathing anymore, isn’t it? One could really get optimistic that Death was just sharpening his aim. And no, this doesn’t count as condoning murder. Everyone dies. It’s just a question of what order benefits humanity as whole.

Caught last train heading into London, for work. Leicestershire looks borderline apocalyptic. Parched brown fields as far as the eye can see. I’m appreciating the flocks of crows and wheeling buzzards, though. Those birds got the memo. Very atmospheric.

Doesn’t begin to surprise me. Our child’s SENCO fails to tell us about meetings where decisions are being made about her, then blames us for not attending. Other SEND parents at the school have the same experience. If you don’t want to do your damn job, quit so someone else can!

#Hookland isn’t a film. Hookland is more like The Third Day. (Oh no, now I’ve made myself want a #Punchdrunk show set in Hookland…)

They don't get #Hookland.

I don’t even know what’s real. Sometimes I wonder if it’s all just a story, if I’m a fraud without even knowing it. Things are sharp tonight, though. I’m not the only one here, and my other self is very scared. #DID

He’s not even the first Somali refugee Lord Mayor we’ve had. Sheffield had Magic Majid ten years ago. And he was fucking brilliant. I would argue we need more people taking responsibility for the place they have chosen to be home, and fewer who merely feel entitled to it.

Edward the Confessor, Henry I, Henry IV, Edward IV, Henry VII and Charles II all at one time had to flee from their country and seek safety in another.

I used to tolerate heat pretty reasonably - I spent the hottest day on record as maid of honour at a wedding in a conservatory - but I’m on new meds and fucking hell, it’s the *confusion* that’s the worst.

I seem to have discovered another dis-integrated part of my self. I thought I had them all - a sort of sprawling map of time, non linear, which is just like me. But this one I have missed. #DID

Hey, #Uber, what we would LIKE is for your drivers not to pull off before we’ve strapped our child in. What we NEED is for them not to pull off *while the door is wide open, and the mother is leaning halfway into the car, and then you run over her fucking foot*!! The bar is low. Clear it.

I’m not sure quite what went wrong with one of the child’s birthday cards… 👁️

It is altogether typical of this government that, when someone is signed of sick from work, their FIRST question is not “how do we help them recover?”, but “how fast can we get them working again?” They are not. The same. Question. share.google/wtW76pFVYePj...
