Five stars for this absolute banger of an anthology (though sad to see how troubled its publisher, Unbound press, is atm).

Some of the listed crowdfunders seem to have been having a laugh w/ aliases too... 😜

Always a tiny thrill, seeing my name in print 😄 (lol, just as a crowdfunder here).

'Flipping Patriarchy' is a 5-star read. Based on the satirical 'Man Who Has It All' accounts, which amusingly re-imagine a genderflipped world, this is a very funny, yet surprisingly intense modern #feminist classic.

Thank you! You're right, I think it does have an autumny vibe - now I just have to resist the urge to track down ALL the brand's other pinafore/skirt designs in orange pumpkiny designs to be EVEN MORE AUTUMNY 🍂🎃😄

"OK, gothtatoes, here's the plan: you hang out doing nothing in the dark broom closet for the winter, then maybe begin chitting on the windowledge roundabout March to grow a few short starter shoots, then we'll plant in April....

...I SAID APRIL, YOU GUN-JUMPING OVEREAGER DARK STARCH-BASTARDS!"

Had an awesome time last weekend on the judging panel of the Scottish National Poetry Slam Championships.

Thanks to Robin Cairns for running the show, and congratulations to our well-deserved poet finalists R. J. Hunter and Aditya Narayan, plus our new champion Biff Smith!

Genuinely disappointed aged 5 to learn being in the (fictional) 95th Rifles Regiment wasn't an option.

My mother undeceived me that a) running through Spanish countryside shooting random Europeans was very illegal, what w/ the Napoleonic wars having ended 200 years ago, and b) it's rifleMEN, duh.

Vi: Allow me! To groom your headfluff! My good hooman!

Me: That's kind of you, but this is Goth hair, so are you sure you want to risk t-

Vi: GAK! HRYK! URK! *chokes* *gets tongue stuck* *falls over*

Me: Someone untangle this poor man! And get him to a vet for chronic hairspray ingestion!

2025 new piercings set: a year of red and silver.

(Because I'm headed for forty and somehow inexplicably still finding c.2003 Hot Topic stripes an absolute hoot? 😛🤔)

Knitting useful items is great, especially with an audiobook on to multitask - though time spent scritching this wee guy's scruncly chin and earning a purr is never wasted either 😉
