Clearly the resolution on my laptop is very different to that on my phone. I spent all that time yesterday altering my hair colour on gimp and then sent it over to my phone and LO AND BEHOLD, the colour looks barely different!! 😩

Well, guess I'm doing it all over again.

soul food is bad for the skin
and caramel rots your teeth
but i'd be damned
if i gave up the little joys

my body isn't permanent
so i'll indulge

It's time for another Weekly Poetry Reading! 🖤

This one's from two weeks ago, I realised how much I liked it so I wanted to read it out. And yes, I struggle with my th's so I am saying baff instead of bath 😂

Hope you enjoy.

may coveted darkness
#obfuscate our deeds
we exist within each other
the fire lives
so long as we feed its flame

Folks, please don’t tell artists they shouldn’t be making or selling their art right now. For many, it’s how they pay the bills. Art is vital during times like this. ALL ART. Whether it’s a protest sign or a book cover or just a beautiful drawing. It’s part of the heart of humanity.

Happy Thursday 🖤

I'm not liking how fast this week is flying by. Even in the slow dredges of January, a week off work will always be far too swift 😂

Have a lovely day 😘

And now for the part of cosplaying that is fun yet tedious.

(I don't have a wig in the exact colour I need so I just use the closest in colour and then edit in Gimp 😂)
January 28, 2026 at 10:02 PM
Gah, in my decluttering I've put the wig I was planning on using tonight somewhere else and now I can't think where 🤔

selective beautiful
arising to the occasion
only so often

makeup rarely graces this face
i don't use social lotions
on my skin
i know nothing about hair

and even if you don't
i still think i'm pretty

well, sometimes..

Maybe I'll cosplay this evening, I'd like to say I've at least done something with the fleeting motivation that I have 🥰
January 28, 2026 at 3:46 PM
dawn breaks through
and i #quiver in your arms
the fear arises
cold as the morning sun
for when those rays
rake at my skin

i know you'll leave me again

Happy Wednesday 🖤

It's astonishing how much lighter I feel when the sun is out 😅 I feel motivated for the day ahead, and eager to make something of it.

Have a lovely day 😘

Fellowship on the big screen was as wonderful as I'd hoped. It felt like watching it for the very first time again 🖤
January 27, 2026 at 11:57 PM
Alrighty, I'm off to watch Fellowship of The Ring on the big screen 🖤

For a few hours at least, my worries are simply nonexistent.
