Had to go to my old gp practice to get a repeat referral to a specialist I’ve seen for years. And I should roll the record over to my new gp but it feels like a bridge too far in the storm of other crap. Anyway, the gp was lovely and bulk billed the three mins I was in there.
Dinosaur Jr touring got me excited. Even if it’s at the Hordern.
I stand by this. The world is on fire, and so much is terrible, but let’s get upset because a deeply mediocre journalist called us names a few years ago.
ladytronic@vague-specific.bsky.social · 18h agoAre you all *still* talking about that? How many years now? I would think we had far more pressing matters to attend to than hurt feelings over a couple of Twitter lists.
It’s been four and a half years and people are still crying over those Twitter lists. You know exactly which ones I mean.
Sometimes you’ve just got to restrict some of the noise and listen to tunes instead. Earlier this came on and it made me briefly happy. youtu.be/yl6Czm_OETc?...

Jennie Hill has no shame. Using a horrific attack as a grift shows there is no limit to how low the Mad Fucking Grifters will sink.

I run an event for queer disabled people in a pub on a massive main street. I’ve had one person enquire several times as to whether we provide masks. I have not responded because I’ll just end up here. For the record, I’m on what is clinically known as moderate immunosuppression. I know my risk
doom boy@doomboy.bsky.social · last mo.hilarious and insane article. full of the sorts of people you meet all the time in left activism, who combine neuroticism and narcissism to bring down any institution they're allowed into.
Book 16 of the year. I predict I will demolish this in a couple of days. Scottish indie, DIY, obsessive fandom, what’s not to love?
Love a Bluesky scolding, such a humbling experience when some arsehat decides to “educate” you.
Off to see Belle and Sebastian alone soon. Solo gigs are quite liberating tbh (telling myself I am not a friendless loser, more massively disorganised but that’s all good!)
If you’re terminally online, rich, and think you can go around “reminding people of their position in society”, may I suggest/remind you that people like you are the problem?
Pool session number 1, 26/27. Six measly laps but I’m flaring up a bit so any effort is good.
To make up for *gestures vaguely at everything*, I am going swimming tomorrow. And every Friday from now on.
The feminine urge to destroy everything and start again.
Fellas, it’s the year 2026, could you please tell your mates to simply not get up in the DMs of people (women, mostly) being absolute dickheads.
Emily Mayo@emilymayo.bsky.social · 4mo agoThanks for fighting the good fight, as always, Crowbar. My solidarity and love to the woman/women. It is so so exhausting. How hard is it for these men to, you know, just not get up in people’s DMs with their gross behaviour? Too hard, apparently.
I understand the urge to point out the first fleet was multicultural or refugees are kicking world cup goals or any other such gotchas but one of the perks of fascism is never having to give the slightest shit about inconsistency or incoherence
New fear unlocked. 😱 The life of an Archivist is wild. One minute you're merrily scanning through a folder of old photographs, the next you've uncovered something like this and it feels you're starring in the pre-title sequence of a 70s horror movie.
4 pics of you with different colored hair🌈❤️

Let’s just have a look at the library’s book sale,,,,,,, oh no
Today is #NationalPenguinDay so we're remembering that time we made a Penguin out of Penguin Books. It's a Penguin Penguin. 🐧
An obsessive freak followed me on my Twitter account, presumably to screenshot me interacting with some mutuals he detests. I’ve blocked him but dude, for the love of God, seek help and get a better hobby.
The booing during the Welcome to Country at the Sydney dawn service makes me feel sick, how these white men (and it’s largely white men) can Lest We Forget soldiers AND be so ignorant and obnoxious about the actual history of this colony is beyond me. www.abc.net.au/news/2026-04...
Tears, hymns and prayer as thousands gather at Anzac services in Sydney
Among the crowd, some held wreaths adorned with the words "Lest We Forget" while others pinned sprigs of rosemary and rows of medals to their shirts.
