Take cheese. Go for walks whenever available, to clear away cobwebs. Don’t forget your entire toiletries bag and be too embarrassed to ask for shampoo for three days. Did I say about the cheese

Age verification: what's the harm? | Girl on the Net explains Age verification has hit the UK, people need to upload ID to see 'adult' content. What's the harm in laws like this, if they protect children? Let's see.

The #OnlineSafetyAct breaks the internet, destroys online privacy, kills independent websites, wrecks accessibility, trains users to routinely bypass government blocks, and offers less protection to children than tools that are already freely available.

Every year we get closer to this happening on the news

Aww, this is lovely. Pull up a cushion. πŸ˜€

Yeah, I think that’s whatβ€˜s been so powerful about the last few weeks- I feel like there’s a place for me in politics again, where I can have a voice and will be listened after years of feeling quite marginalised. Thatβ€˜s really powerful.

For anyone whoβ€˜s left: if this video makes/ made you cry, come sit by me.

But… fuck it. It is what it is. That’s where my heart is right now.

So, if you explicitly do not want to follow someone who bangs on a lot about leftist politics (and cats) and might talk about adult stuff occasionally, feel free to unfollow. All love to you.

For many reasons, that doesn’t seem to be where my head is at right now. Right NOW the thing I am most excited about is politics, mainly because of the two Zβ€˜s, my guys Zohran and Zack P.
But I’ve not really been posting accordingly because this was supposed to be a smut acct, not a politics acct

So of my small follower count I think a lot of you found me via a recommendation from @girlonthenet.bsky.social and followed on the basis that I might be posting accordingly: adult content, erotica, etc. And fair enough, that’s why I started the account. But!

35mm color photo of Zohran Mamdani smiling as he speaks into a bullhorn with his arm raised. Low angle, cropped tightly. Lovely out of focus light through trees in the background.

Got my color film from this rally developed! Here's @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social doing that rally thing.

Nikon FE2, Nikon Nikkor 105mm f2.5 (I think), Kodak Gold 200.

Dear universe,

I will never not find Lily Allen annoying or forget her racist video nonsense so please stop trying, I am immovable.

Love,

It is hard to get testosterone as a cis woman? That’s what the headline is saying. I can’t get T on insurance and can’t afford it privately- I also had to fight for years to find a gyno who would prescribe me oestrogen and progesterone. It should be easy for all of us, not harder for cis women too.

Well I use a VPN for lots of other stuff so I’ve avoided that in the UK so far. But it comes for us all eventually.

This is an IOS store restriction. Not that I think that Android won’t follow suit, but I’m not going to be buying an Apple phone when this one dies- and I’m using an ailing SE, so that’s a choice I’ll be making next year.

I hate this shit so much. This is the Bad Place.

I have got away with not age verifying for anything yet as I live in Germany rather than the States or UK, but in the last couple of days Discord have age gated all NSFW servers on IOS- including several I use for work. I am full of resentment but downloading Discord onto my Android tablet.

β€œWhen they rob us of art and emotion, that leads us towards the aesthetics of fascism. In this film, all the sets are real, the decor is human-sized, there are painstakingly created miniatures... It’s there to remind us that art is not only necessary, it is urgent. And AI can go fuck itself!”

Hey everyone, I started taking oestrogen six days ago and yesterday I got my metaphors back! I just wrote something hot for the first time in maybe 15 months!

Oestrogen! Notice the British spelling!
O!Estrogen!- a song, a shout, an exclamation.

Y'know, it's the stangest thing; Maccabi Tel Aviv fans being told not to come to Aston Villa because of a security concern that they might be attacked is the top story on BBC News today

But no mention at all that I can see that IDF began breaking the ceasefire basically immediately

If I had not accidentally cut my fringe β€˜too short’ a month or so ago I would not have discovered that I actually look pretty great with a short fringe. Fortune favours the bold/ overly caffeinated!
