Feeling unwell?

If you have COVID symptoms, TEST
If you test positive, ISOLATE
If you can’t test, MASK

Protect yourself and others (especially high-risk people) - it still matters!

#AScareADay - Day 11 - A cursed room in a house... a lady scorned by her lover who marries someone else... it's all very dramatic. I enjoyed the galvanism aspect, used here as a form of early defibrillation. Today, I've written a…

This isn’t fearmongering — it’s reality. Hospital-acquired COVID can delay care or cost you your health — even your life.

Infection control measures — masks, ventilation, testing, and staff/patient protections — should be standard care in every healthcare setting.

#AScareADay Day 11 – An Itinerant House by Emma Frances Dawson.

Her eyes were open! We were alarmed as if doing wrong and
silently watched her. Fifteen minutes later her lips formed one word:
“Idiots!”

I pretty much have the same reaction every time someone in a story raises the dead 😂

Sexy titles are overrated. I've attended multiple online talks where Sam has shared various bits and pieces of what's in this book, and they know what they're talking about and are talking about it in an incredibly interesting and accessible way.

Your academic discourse doesn't need tits and ass.

Aloush really needs help. Donations have dried up and he is struggling. Little Ameera has been in the hospital in a coma, she is now awake and recovering after being shot. Please help this family by giving if you can and sharing if not, and following him on insta. chuffed.org/project/1406...

There’s a comment piece in The Times about sickness benefits mysteriously going up and no mention of Covid, long Covid, the effects of lockdown etc. Boosters help people stay healthy, but now they are only available to the very old or people who can afford them.

I feel like the title of my book - Theology in the Early British and Irish Gothic - isn't very sexy or puts people off thinking 'well, I'm not interested in theology so... meh'.

But my books offers well researched challenges on key Gothic issues 1/

Saw a post about this book on Tuesday.

It looked ACE, so I went to Big Green Books website to order it. But It wasn't there.

Then I saw a thing on the homepage that said email [email protected] & all your dreams will come true.

So I did.

Two days later, they have!

Thanks Big Green Books

#AScareADay Day 10 – The Dark Angel by Lionel Johnson

I admit I read this earlier today & didn't really get it. Then I read some about the poet and now I feel this is really quite sad. The self-loathing, the fear, the way he feels he has to utterly reject who he is. Eternally uncomforted, indeed 😢

happy birthday to my queer regency rom-com I Shall Never Fall in Love!!!! overwhelmed by how many people have read and enjoyed it in the last year tbh. THANK YOU to everyone who's read, supported, and/or said nice things, it really means the world #books

Portal 5. Trying to summon the fog back again with this image. Took this photo last winter in the dreamy perpetual fog. If this place isn't haunted I'll eat my hat. #phantomfriday Croxden Abbey

Hospitals are bringing masks back because Covid never left!

But we:

❌ Ignore Covid risks
❌ Don’t clean the air
❌ Deny vaccines to most Clinically Vulnerable
❌ Treat masking as “personal choice” (even HCWs)

It isn’t Living with Covid
It feels like neglect

I love her curly antenna 🥰

1. A new journal report in the prestigious Medical Journal of Australia eviscerates the Cass review, saying it is filled with fallacies and launders anti-trans disinformation.

It methodically goes through each problem in the review.

Yes! Lindores making his grand declarations to his father and then, the laugh

"And then there was a low laugh close to them--so close that both shrank; a laugh no louder than a breath."

Meet my newest creation Edith the Moth Phantom! I designed and hand-sewed her. She enjoys singing sea shanties with her cryptid band. They perform primarily for the moon. She also likes appearing to travelers as good or bad omens, depending on her mood.

#AScareADay Day 9 – The Secret Chamber by Margaret Oliphant

A Scottish castle and a generational haunting (curse?). I'm not sure how Lindores found strength to turn his back on his ancestor's apparition, but even that isn't the end of his struggles.
