Writes romance and horror. Sometimes combines the two in a horrible romance. Gluten-free. May contain nuts. No DMs, please, because the UK has determined I'm not adult enough to read them.

He does come from a family who were very into eugenics, after all.

That man was on Trump's 'Board of Peace' talking about ethnically cleansing Gaza so he can drive down the price of beachfront real estate. I don't know what he prays for when he's in church, but if I were him I'd be thanking God with every breath that I haven't been tried in the Hague.

I think we need people to start listening to new experts that said this many years ago

...the armfuls of arum lilies that filled my bedroom in great glass jars…lilies with the heavy pollen that powders your fingers as if you had dipped them in turmeric. The lilies I always associate with him; that are white.
And stain you.

I hope Jessica Chapman and Holly Wells are resting in grace. They were just a couple of mates pratting about together being kids on a nice summer evening.

Cannot stand Tennyson. The meters annoy me, never mind the words. I just cannot with that mid-Victorian slush. And Hawthorne can fucking do one as well. Ugh.

I've seen a fair few VR postboxes before, but never one partially swallowed by a tree.

I'm a vicar in a small rural village. I could never say this to my flock because of the outcry, but Reform are blatantly opposed to genuine Christian values and it's clear that anyone considering voting for them has not been listening to a single word I say each week

I hope she had a lovely time, and that whoever she murdered thoroughly deserved it.

Loved this at first sight. Psychic grunt work, cursed objects, and a two second cameo from one of the most famous cursed objects in all horror.

Debatable. If you told me he was a stitched-together thing animated only by some damp Nazi necromancy that Steve Bannon ripped off from Heinrich Himmler I'd be like yeah, makes sense.

Only if you're going to burn the bed in it. Terrible things have happened in that bed.

It's also a long-winded way of saying 'I was kicked out of the Green Party for being a bigot.'

Progressives in the UK who still haven't got the message: the TERFs are now trying to bankrupt the Greens through repeated litigation, with a fresh round dropping now they're demonstrably a credible choice in elections.

Join the dots. "Feminist" transphobia is a vassal of fascism.

She's still my favourite Lizzie. I grew up with that P&P and imprinted on Colin Firth's wet shirt. Also Alison Steadman. ❀️

Yep! It's a really fascinating role, too. Secretly feral-yet-constrained dying mother who is a little too keen to lean into her large adult son's Oedipal impulses. She'll kill it, I'm sure.

There are many reasons the Met are known as the Filth. This is just one of them.

Love a felafel. Reminds me, I must get some more chickpeas. I know it's not the point but every time one of these wingnuts starts foaming about woke foods I get really hungry. I made so much tofu when Suella was Home Secretary.

I suppose I could start this book with nuance, but who needs nuance when you have rat poison?

Not sure you can continue to claim to be doing grown-up politics when you're posting sizzle reels of helicopters on TikTok.

The Walter White bit leads me to believe these were the exact same misogynists who thought Skyler - who did NOT poison a child, kill people and dissolve bodies in acid, or plant a bomb in a retirement home - was actually the villain of the piece.

So basically they saw that little Liam lad being arrested in his blue bunny ears hat and thought 'yeah, that's a good look that in no way makes us look like monsters'.
