Feel like I should do kind of intro post.
I'm Ava Foxfort, formerly of board game writing, videos and podcasts (and maybe one day again). I did a heel turn into purely tweeting about wrestling for self care reasons. I now play more role playing games than board games but love both.

Our society is steeped in conversion pressures for children who quietly, silently, question their gender.
These pressure work to ensure that some children will never overcome their own shame & self-doubt enough to safely explore who they are.

The Very Hungry Caterpillar
Jon and Mac consider: worms, the generative tension between tidiness and chaos, why we feel affection for this caterpillar, brightness, science vs. poetry, a toy you can read, a book you can touch

had three glasses of wine at dinner last night and told my Labour friend "THE MILITRAIN IS COMING BACK INTO TOWN, CHOO CHOO" so I guess that's where I'm at, personally
The value bet here is Ed Miliband.
A competent minister, has an agenda, possesses politics.

I worked at my local library when I first moved up here and got into a fight with them about whether we should have so much terf literature on display, particularly when they were the only academic books on transness. It did not go well.

I want you to know that during the brainstorming session for these I decided it might be a laugh to write terrible erotic fiction for Heart Junk Mage Zeniths
after writing it and posting it everyone went quiet because it turns out I just had earnestly attempted to write florid angler fish porn

'Dried pasta is where lies live'
I used to follow the people's pop polls because they helped me fall in love with artists I'd never heard of before. But now I mostly find myself in deep hatred of artists who I've heard one track of and sworn as a mortal enemy because the RNG put them in a group with something I liked more.
While I'm very bitter about some things that missed the cut incredibly narrowly, compared to some things that are cleanly in here, it's a cracking fifty tracks and covers a really interesting spread. It was remarkably easy to get my twelve in order in the end though.

Hopefully one day I get put in the machine where they etch the PHQ-9 and GAD-7 questions all over my skin with a fine needle until I bleed out.

Call from local mental health service where I start off saying in fine but as I explain my situation I get worse and I explain this is how it goes when I reach out for support and people tell me to talk to other services that won't help me so I get told to talk to other services that won't help me.

"From each according to their ability" is such a revolutionary, society upending, liberating idea if you take it really really seriously alongside disability politics.

If you are baffled by why the jury refused to convict the Palestine Action defendants, it's because – unlike them – you didn't hear the actual evidence. You heard what the media wanted you to know.
Here, I explain what the jury learnt from the trial: jonathancook.substack.com/p/barristers...

Barrister's powerful speech at Filton Trial reminds jury of its right to defy judge
Starmer and the media need convictions to justify Palestine Action's proscription as a terrorist group. Rajiv Menon KC spells out to the jury why it is a vital last defence against government tyranny

Incidentally this was what tipped me off about Jacob Tierney, and I had to stop reading when I realised it was about to spoil one of the toppest tier moments of telly. Now it remains elucidating. Delightful.
Finally hopped right on that bandwagon and holy crap, HEATED RIVALRY is amazing. But beyond all the surface level delights is all the tried and true lessons of set-ups and payoffs - all to help build "the moment of transcendence." Enjoy!
