My son & I attended Lincoln Mosque for their open day—we took a tour, did fun activities, had our names written in Arabic calligraphy, & met warm, wonderful people. The best thing you can do right now is get involved with your community & stand up against racism. #greenpartyuk

Thinking about the two souls lost today in a house of worship in Manchester. Thinking about how worried I am for my Jewish friends—and wondering if they too will be targeted for something beyond their control. Now, of course, hate will be directed at the Muslim community and the cycle will repeat.😔

Ended up weeping (in character) as part of my recording session for Liquid Violet at Factory Studio for an exciting new game I’ve been voicing for the past year. I love her—very thoughtful, smart, & tragically strong. Can’t wait to share her with you all in 2026. #VoiceActor #rpg #thevoiceagency

Currently voicing for three games, as well as a cartoon, all releasing on streaming services in 2026. All are going to be a big deal for me. I’m so excited & so scared. Some have already started releasing trailers and promo material. Eek!!! #voiceover #VoiceActor #rpg #streaming

I joined the @greenparty.org.uk’s @lincolngreenparty.bsky.social division & it’s the best. Brilliant people, friendly, motivated for social & environmental justice. Zack stands by his principles and knows how to counter with grace and wit. They’ve hit 75,000 members. Are you the 75,001st? #joingreen

My first time voting in the UK was @zackpolanski.bsky.social for @greenparty.org.uk leader. I’ve been waiting for the Greens to be braver, bolder, & a little more ‘no nonsense.’ Zack is that dude. Also @rachelmillward.bsky.social and @mothinali.bsky.social complete the dream team! 💚

River passed away on Monday. It’s going to be a long road to feeling normal again. But I want to say that adopting him from @whittinghamhounds.bsky.social was the best decision we ever made. He was perfect. We will 100% be doing this again in the future. RIP handsome boy. #adoptagreyhound #longsnoot

I think he’s been dead for a while. That video of him staggering all over the red carpet was just Stephen Miller wearing his skin suit, unable to see out of the eye holes.

Wonderful VO session playing a kooky cutie for a new, long-awaited project. Thank you @pitstop-audio.bsky.social (Daniel & Giovanni) for the fabulous direction and engineering. Love being in the booth. As always, thanks to Michele, my fab agent at The Voice Agency xxx #voiceover #voiceactor #RPG

Heading down to Croydon for a voiceover at @pitstop-audio.bsky.social … Love this view of the city near Thameslink. #londonlove #londonvies #walkietalkie

I just realised I read your new Dickens tour post, but re-posted your Doyle post with the Dickens caption! Ah well… both will be awesome. I’m also a huge fan of Doyle, so the sentiment still stands. 😂

If you’ve not done one of these, get in! It’s so great. And if you love history and you love Dickens, you won’t be disappointed.

Migrants didn't cut council funding. Migrants didn't cut NHS funding. Migrants didn't close youth centres. Migrants didn't sell off council houses. Migrants aren't filling our rivers with sewage.

Farage and co. will tell you to point the finger at migrants.

Don't fall for it.

So much this. Good parenting/guardianship is not always about having all the answers. It's often about humility and modelling how to find them.

Lupita Nihongo @otsumamiboy.bsky.social · Aug 24

‘How am I supposed to explain this to my children?’ is one of the laziest copouts that bigots have been allowed to weaponize against social progress.

“I don’t know.“ is perfectly acceptable in any situation and “Let’s find out together.” is one of the most precious ways to engage with your child.

(At dinner this evening)
Husband: Tr*mp’s aesthetic in the White House is a mixture of tasteless Saudi oil money and…. and….
Me: The inside of Liberace’s a**hole?
(Pause)
Husband: Yes.

This might be my favourite description of her. 😂 … or as one of the other sickos calls her, a “perverted succubus.”

The Nerdskull @nerdskull.bsky.social · Aug 18

I am extremely amused by the character who is explicitly a Kodaka superfan killing game sicko.

In 2015, I did a wonderful play at The Sherman Theatre (Cardiff) by Neil Simon called “Last of the Red Hot Lovers.” I played a weed smoking, Twiggy made-up, wannabe actress attempting to have an affair with a married man. It was incredibly fun and I met so many brilliant people. #actorslife

No, we have three years to advocate for someone better. I will fall in line and vote for the eventual nominee, but until the convention I'm going to fight like hell to try to get someone who shares my values nominated.

@GBDinExile, but also spooky @gbdawkins.bsky.social · Aug 15

Prepare yourself for a Dem nominee (him or somebody else) with whom you don’t agree on everything (Gaza, trans issues, death penalty). You have three years to get the fuck over it because anyone the Dems offer up is better than this or something like this.

Jessica Ellis @baddestmamajama.bsky.social · Aug 15

Ok, you know why I don’t like Gavin Newsom? You know how in While You Were Sleeping, Peter Gallagher’s family all talks about how he rescued a nest of baby birds as a kid, and later he admits he knocked their nest out of the tree with a rock, then made sure everyone saw him rescue it?

That’s Gavin.
