Me writing an essay: queering the middle ages is not about uncovering sexual identities, but about examining the ways in which things don't conform to heteronormative study and thereby unsettle the established orthodoxy through which we view the middle ages

Also me: hahaha he's so gay
Yes

My world view
If you don't want me to eat the massive spring roll then don't take me places that serve massive spring rolls. This is on you

One day, everything will be okay. The world's wealth won't be hoarded by a bunch of earth-cannibalising psychopaths. We will all have what we need to live fully and joyfully. Pints will be cheap, travel will be free, and no one will have to go homeless or hungry. It'll happen. I promise

@bbccymruwales.bsky.social I have an idea for a show that'll make you £££'s

Send my pals Mochyn, Aled and Elinor around Wales for Mochyn to sample the local takeaway's giant spring rolls

Trying to warn the electrician about Nain, my false widow who lives in the kitchen vent, and requesting that he not disturb her while also trying not to sound like a crazy person who keeps a venomous spider as a quasi-pet and feeds her flies (I am not succeeding)

I see we're now pathologising *checks notes* finding someone attractive

The degree to which that video of that guy saying "Dydd Gwener Bois. Ffantasteg" has burrowed its way into my brain should be studied by scientists

I am still miles away from completing my diss but I'm ending it with this picture of big titty jesus and hoping it doesn't get me banned from graduating

- dinner party murder mystery
- we found a spooky book in the cabin in the woods
- guy in mask
- something weird is going down in Antarctica
-there’s a Mystery & someone needs to use a microfiche machine, preferably at night. In the snow.
-some very attractive people all want to have sex together but they can’t because reasons so they hang out being Suggestive (not in the snow).

-Two girls bond over evil
-Art drives people insane
-Australia is weird
-Everybody who died shows up at the end as ghosts and makes you cry

I know I wear my Rhaglan castle hoodie too much because I was walking down the street I head down on my way to the pub and a guy shouts across the road "fucking hell you're never not in that hoodie". Sir I do not know you

It's only Frankenstein's monster if it comes from the Frankenstein region of Switzerland. Otherwise what you have there are plain old daddy issues

The great thing about having a parrot is that you can nod off and wake up to her whispering peekaboo in your ear just before she shits down your cheek*

Stuck between a rock and a hard place. Facing an ultimatum of catastrophic consequences. Trapped in a hell of my own design.

About four years ago I was walking through the centre of town and was struck by a certainty so strong it bordered on premonition: that I would die walking through castle square being struck by a deliveroo cyclist. It was so powerful it stopped me dead in my tracks. It's such a curse, this knowledge

Where has the AI obsession with mpreg come from? What is it trying to tell us? What can this tell us about ourselves?

If there's one thing I can be trusted to do it's confuse "scatological" and "eschatological" in an essay

Doing what I do when the weather gets me down and am reading my favourite letter from the entire middle ages: Llywelyn Fawr's letter to Eva Marshall after executing her husband for shagging his wife, passing on condolences and his wish for their children to still get married
