Another thing, you can be the nicest person alive. But if I see you using ai art. And you follow me, I'm going to block you. I have artist friends, and I am anti ai to the fucking core of my being. In fact ai art is wrong, ai can't make art. It's fucking soulless. Pay artists, you know humans.
Look what I got, Project Hanuman by @stewarthotston.com gonna get my teeth into this this evening. But I bet it'll be magnificent. #BookMail #WritingCommunity #BookSky

Slept through my alarm, thought I started work at 9am (I start at 8am). So I rang in and took the day today. It'll cost me, but given I normally run like clockwork where work is concerned. Well I'll take the rest, before it takes me and something daft happens.

Said blunt falchion by Blue Dog Forge out of Carlisle. It was intended to be a Conyers Falchion, but the spec was a bit off. So it became a slightly shorter lighter one. The Conyers Falchion is likely what the Vorpal blade from the Jabberwocky was based on. #Hema #Swordcialists

On Monday I'll have a Falchion on its way. And fuck I'm excited, gods I love a Falchion something so brutal yet elegant about them.

My pre-order of Project Hanuman by @stewarthotston.com comes soon, excited to finally read something of yours. Enjoyed having a bit of a chat with you at Brighton. Gods that coat you showed on your phone was beautiful! amzn.eu/d/4Somx5w

Serving size per 100g is wild, do you think I'm not eating the entire bag? I'm a ravenous feral thing at the best of times but when I'm hungry? Nah just tell the values per the whole fucking thing 🤣

@tfrohock.com Hi Occult mom, hope you and yours are well? 🖤

The freedom that is breaking the chains that autistic burnout had me in is just, euphoric. The world has colour again, and I feel energetic, inspired, happy and free.

There was a very brief but insightful conversation that I think really cut to the core of why I felt so disconnected.

Not even a god fearing man, but that's a fucking good line.
"What good will it be for someone to gain the whole world, yet forfeit their soul? Or what can anyone give in exchange for their soul?"
Something deeply fucked up when you can blindly break basic state functions and condemn millions to death and then people make you the richest man in the world instead of a pariah

Jesus fucking Christ, pro tip? Don't spray aftershave, then touch your fucking eye with the same finger immediately after.

Still punk I say as I consider a pizza and all the dairy and face down the trots so have to eat a handful of lactase tablets.

Fucking love it when I've done my due sword maintenance and she looks bright and shiny again.

@annaclark.bsky.social @annaclark.bsky.social personal messaged you some videos and such :D

But less negativity. I had an absolutely magical last few days with amazing people, enough whiskey to kill an average person, fucking sublime food, shenanigans, great banter and got to meet some old friends again and solidify friendships with others. 'It's not fucking funny' oh it was.

Another pet peeve? Don't be on your fucking phone in public on loudspeaker. The chaotic goblin in me wants to just start screeching like the devil himself has my bollocks in a vice to teach said people to never do it again. (I'm sure there are exceptions, but it's a choice to do that)
November 4, 2025 at 2:42 PM
@annaclark.bsky.social Just wanted to say it was lovely to see you again mate, hope you had a good time 😁🖤

That said it's been a lovely journey in stark contrast to the fucking ballache that was getting to Brighton. Sun's out, got to compliment the bus driver on her lovely brass hair clip thing that reminded me of a Roman laurel crown. I always love to give a compliment and brighten someone's day.

Pet peeve? I'm sat at waiting on a bus and there are no smoking signs fucking everywhere. Within three feet of me is a guy smoking, I took the walk to the smoking area. Say one thing for Tom, say he doesn't force others to smoke when he does if he can help it.

I really enjoy bus travel, and trains tbh. But why the fuck must buses in particular often be hotter than the 7th circle of hell. Sweating like two rats fucking in a wool sock here.

Sat here listening to music at 00:52 and smiling wide as I think on the antics of my time with people who I adore and feeling so fucking blessed to know the fucking sublime human beings I get to call my friends, some of which are very much my chosen family. Find your tribe, hold them tight, be kind.
