I write stuff, I have rats. She/Her. Trans. Really tall. T4T. Spicy brain, even spicier medical history (I rarely post about UK politics and not at all about US politics. Just FYI).

I forgot that in the 2022 chapter of Cold Morning. Dan considers changing the name of the SWer friendly start up he helps run to "Mournhub" following the death of the Queen

Probably not the only person who came up with that pun but its staying in

My brain isnt quite up to writing new stuff as its full of snot.
So correlating chapters in Cold Morning so far and doing a master timeline of events from 1989 to 2220ish (dont worry. There's a pretty big gap for a century and a half )

Brain isn't up to writing, so doing a chapter by chapter list of Cold Morning and an actual timeline of events in universe from 1990 up to 2218 (seems like a big thing but theres a big gap lol)

Unsolicited Flick Pick: Go watch the 2004 Hellboy film. It might be the best comic adaptation ever. Also go watch the sequel and the two animated spin offs which are drawn like the comics but voiced by the Del Toro Film cast

in my town, theres a church in between a bunch of shopping streets meaning folks walk along paths around it loads. So the squirrels are really used to people and really bold about demanding stuff. (also it means its both a park and a bit of a graveyard, hence my pics of squirrels on gravestones)

Nobody could have imagined the future world that would find this funny and why

If I uploaded stuff about an ongoing Kill Team campaign. Would folks read about it? Battle reports or narrative fluff? Ill have a think

Making my way through old Quizzlemania eps.
