Nurse. Ratched. Mother. Mother. Mummy.

Today I’m thinking about how one of the cornerstones of the @david-jenkins.bsky.social school of historical accuracy lore - Olu wearing crocs - was actually all Christine Wada, and entirely for Samson’s comfort.

Oh wow, I was not prepared for hard this would resonate with me and how hard it would hit.

Ahhhhh amazing, thank you for sorting that ❤️

The memo pads are back in stock, yaaaaaay!

Before I take all my extras out of the basked, do you offer combined shipping?

Starting 2026 off by adding 2 more day jobs in alongside all the other day jobs, and that teeny tiny entirely stress free (lol) side job, I've got.

It's not going to be the year of work-life balance, but if I can end 2026 with the same amount of debt (or less) then I've done better than in 2025.

Feeling very tender, exhausted, overwhelmed and emotional today.

This is actually perfect given Pedro was on the list for Blackbeard 😂

I miss my lil’ baby monkey buddy. I still find it hilarious that people think he’s cursed. He’s just a lil’ baby.

I loved - still love - these edits so much. They made me laugh so hard.

Having a little cry over soup. Thank you @robotpinemarten.bsky.social 💜

But thank you. Now is when I really wish I had all of that money people seem to think I'm making, then I could afford to order in some soup. 🫂🫂🫂

No, it isn't. Especially when said internet drama is genuinely putting me at risk. Not just my reputation, but financially as well.

I know, in the grand scheme of things, it is a minority but they are very loud and it is taking a massive toll on my physical and mental health.

If I never see that word again..... when will it end?

If I don't laugh, I'm gonna cry...... Oh wait.

That is ultimately it - if the images of the animals were so important to campaign they could have paid someone to create them via animation / CGI, but why pay a professional when you can use AI for cheaps? The argument that they do more overall good than this use of AI is so disingenuous as...

Strictly Come Dancing announces Ellie Goldstein as first contestant with Down’s syndrome Goldstein, the first model with Down’s syndrome to feature on the cover of Vogue, becomes the ninth contestant to be announced for the 2025 series

I am so fucking delighted for Ellie! She is not only a trailblazer, but is a beautiful ball of cheer and sunshine of a person. It was a joy to meet and cast her last year. I suppose this means I'm going to have to watch it this year, aren't I?

I'm so jealous! We've had thunder and lightening here, but no rain 😭

I realise 3 of them are from those glorious days when you could get a round the world ticket for student travel agents for under 2 grand 😂
