29. Queer trans lesbian (She/Her). Disabled. Socialist.

PhD history student, when I'm not too ill. Studying mountain imagery in ancient religious texts. A bit obsessed with 17th Century British politics.

I also like heavy metal and taking photos of birds
The BBC News homepage is just increasingly syncing up with your racist uncle's fevered brain.

I think we have to syart seriously thinking about ripping up BBC News and starting again.

The other parts of the corporation are I think salvageable but the News team is rotten to the core

If I might be forgiven for being a smidge pretentious for a moment, this popped into my head:

It's pretty obviously inspired by this shot from the epilogue of Mewtwo Returns, but we both *distinctly* remember the hat, pulled low over its face as a disguise.

I've even seen fanart of it with the fedora just as I remember, so it's not even just us!

The rivers are alive!

It's giving anmism 2.0, it's giving @folkhorrorrevival.bsky.social, and frankly I am very much here for it.

I decided to play my first game of my new board game Bärenpark with the self-imposed rule that the enclosures had to be next to matching animal houses.

I didn't score particularly highly, but at least my bears could play outside!

Just started learning to crochet.

Obviously got a long way to go but I'm glad I finally - after a...number of attempts - managed to get my hands to do the thing more or less right!

Definitely got to be this one of me in the salon after I finally got my hair dyed blonde, which I had been wanting to do for years and years

The world is hard and I am tired but I am now basically done with Christmas shopping so that is *something*

Saw this for sale on a second hand site, and the more I look at it the funnier I find it

I really do understand the impulse here but if the criminal courts ever 'caught up' with the civil ones, that would be bloody terrifying.

They have a way higher standard of evidence for a reason. Being sent to prison should never just be a 'balance of probabilities' thing
