I just went for a lovely birding walk in local Nature Reserve 2 and got inspired: with the help of the Merlin bird ID app I'm going to record all the birds I see/hear between 24/12/24 and 25/12/25. It'll be under the hashtag #2425YearOfBirding. Anyone want to join me?

If you've prepared your patch properly, by now your pumpkins should be:
- humming slightly
- levitating a little
- visited nightly by dark fairies
- sinking their vines into other plants to drain them of energy
- murmering dark incantations to the elder gods

No, thank goodness. It started tiring me out in my late 20s/early 30s and my health really got bad when I was around 34-35. Considering I'm pushing 15 years out from that now I'm pleased I'm able to do what I can do. 👍

Thank you! I don't know how the heck I used to do 5 x 9-5 days outside the home every week. Two in a row at home now absolutely wipes me.

Happy Sunday folks! I'm about to start another full work day so won't be around very much. I'm going to have to shut my office window as the birds are VERY LOUD out there this morning. They're very busy doing Important Things😁

Mask up punks! we keep us safe.

Anna Holmes @annabookwriter.bsky.social · 1d

Reminder that one of the punkest acts of resistance against fascism is putting a mask on in shared air.

It immediately marks you as a brave and safe person for disabled folks. It’s not easy to stick out, yeah.

So imagine how we feel.

Anna Holmes @annabookwriter.bsky.social · 1d

It’d be great if you wouldn’t help them by extending the benefit of the doubt, following dubious health advice, treating their side as “reasonable concerns”, and particularly and especially refusing to get vaccinated, wear masks, and clean the air.

I’ve informed Cosmo that he is a very nice boy. It’s important to keep him abreast of the latest developments

Thanks! Yep - unfortunately these sorts of cramming triage sessions aren't unusual for some students - the GCSE regime these days is really evil ☹️

Thank you! First class done. Poor kid has to know about homeostasis for a Biology test this week: we've just zoomed through structure of brain & eye, nervous system and reflexes in an hour, and that's only 1/6 of the topic! 😬 I think I've got GCSE English next....

Happy Caturday folks! I got a 4/5 on Visible this morning but I am feeling a bit groggy, so getting myself caffeinated as I get ready for a busy day of work 🥴 Wish me luck & see you later x

It is tragic how often the kindest people defend themselves the least and the worst people are the most adept at doing so. We need to flip this. Be a good person with a solid shield system in place.
