I've been informed that it would benefit my academic career for me to redownload X and create a platform on there, but I cannot - for the life of me - bring myself to do it. It feels dirty. It feels like Musk has got his elongated fingers all over it. No thanks. I'd rather stay here. #Bluesky

I'm so excited for my recent research to be out in the open for all to see - it's vulnerable, like the very essence of erotica itself!

I ache inside when I think about the state of this world sometimes. The abhorrent realisation that still, in 2025, there is genocide; that still, in 2025, the bodies of women are being policed. #worldlypolitics

Reading has always been political.
Your favorite characters wouldn’t just sit by and watch. They’d get up and burn some shit to the ground.

How To Be a Writer, #111:
Open laptop
Look into the void
Scream into the void
Consider that maybe the void also sometimes feels this way about you
Ask the void if it takes milk
Choose a nice mug for the void
And maybe a chocolate biscuit
Lose yourself in the void
Tea
Open laptop
Look into the void
