If you asked me today what I’ve been thinking about it’s mostly been this description of Catholicism
Photo of a book. Text reads: The fascination with these destructive forces may be attributed to the twins' residual Catholicism, a melodramatic ideology that envisions life as constantly menaced by temptation and evil;

Was reading this on the train and an old lesbian came up over to me before she got off at her stop and went “it’s a good book, isn’t it?” 💜💜💜

Had an ultrasound in preparation for a hysterectomy, and I know the point is getting rid of it but I feel like they didn’t need to dunk on my uterus like this
Screenshot of test results. Text reads: Interpretation: The test results show bulky uterus, incorrectly placed

Was flipping through this book thinking “I wonder what sources they used, I had such a hard time finding things when I wrote about this” and it turns out the sources they used include me! That’s my MA thesis out in the wild!!!
The cover for “Queer Beyond London: LGBTW stories from four English cities” by Matt Cook and Alison Oram A page of end note references. The references for note 57 says “Judith, LIP: see also: Lois, ‘Remembering Pride and Celebrating Place: Finding, Mapping and Commemorating Queer Heritage in Manchester.’ MA Thesis, 2015.

My mom likes to send random parcels of childhood photos so here’s one I got today: the most swagged up baby of 1995
Lois as a toddler. They are sitting in a stroller, which is loaded on the back with a large yellow blanket and a folded-up kite. They are wearing a blue tracksuit with pink, purpled and green diamond pattern across the top half of the jacket and have on striped rainbow sunglasses. Their hair is about shoulder length and is pulled back on the side with a barrette. They are looking off to the left of the photo and holding a container for a snack. They look the most unbothered a person has ever been.

Lately when I feel too stressed about the news I look at this picture of pikachu and it’s been doing a lot for me
A picture of pikachu stuffed into a tube container. The tube has a small rectangular window and pikachu’s face is squished against it like a squishmellow. He has a sad little frowny face that looks exactly like the sad face emoticon :(

yo anyone got word on what an “allusively feminine breast” is
Picture of text. Text reads: “One of the most emblematic testimonies of this transformation phase may be found in the decorations of the principle sanctuary in Deir el-Bahari, in which Hatshepsut is portrayed with a feminine body, the short kilt, a false beard, the head-covering nemes, as well as an allusively feminine breast.”

Just finished this book, which I enjoyed reading as much as I can “enjoy” something that kept setting off my fitness watch’s ‘you seem stressed’ reminders because my heart rate kept going up

You think you’ve encountered the worst, most fake-sounding UK place name and then you come across the hamlet of “Grimpo”
Screenshot of google maps. In the center shows “Grimpo”. Other places on the map include Rednal, Queen’s Head, Eardiston, and Shotatton.

Very satisfying when you’re on a walk and see a tree that would be great for a swing and think “wow that would be a great tree for a swing” and ho ho!! Someone else had the same thought!!
Lois hanging from a thick stick that’s been tied to a tree branch for swinging purposes. They are wearing black shorts and a red striped shirt and sunglasses and are swinging towards the camera, having a great time

Happy Easter specifically to Jim Cunningham, 50
A picture of a white man wearing a purple polo shirt, black trousers , and black suspenders. He is wearing glasses and staring at the camera. He looks charming but awkward. He is captioned “Jim Cunningham, 50, Catholic Priest, 30th Cher show.” There is a pop-out quote box that says “You’ve been to 30 Cher shows?” Jim response: “At least. I met her once and told her I was ordained on her birthday. She asked if I chose that. I said ‘No Cher, God did.’”

Welcome “oh no not again” rat to the party (aka the view above my work computer)
A gallery wall of art. There is a framed page from The Faggots and Their a Friends Between Revolutions, a picture of Lois’s wife LJ in a blue frame, a large drawing of a bus on a viaduct passing over a town, a drawing of a pigeon saying FUCK, and a gold gothic window frame in a rose stained glass style. The new addition is a stylised drawing of a bright green rat who looks very frustrated. The text on the rat picture says “oh no not again”

this tiktok comment is about to do irreparable harm to my lexicon
Screenshot of a TikTok comment and reply. The comment comes from “bussy galore dot com” and reads “some of my favourite tops have been 5ft 6in”. The reply is from “Johnny lazebnik”, who posted the video the comment is on, and reads “for sure! Tater tops are valued members of the community”

brb making a t-shirt that says “There is only one way of denying tomorrow, and that is to die.”
Picture of text from Les Miserables. Text reads: “But those who do not welcome the future should consider this: in denying progress it is not the future that they condemn, but themselves. They are inoculating themselves with a fatal disease, the past. There is only one way of denying tomorrow, and that is to die.”

T-T-T-TITLE DROP
Photo of a page from Les Miserables. Text reads: “All this is true, but whatever may be said in its favour this extension of the meaning of the word 'argot’ is something that not everyone accepts. For our own part, we restrict the word to its old, precise meaning, and for us argot is simply argot. The true argot, argot par excellence (if those words may be used in this context), the immemorial argot which was a kingdom in itself, is, we must repeat, nothing but the ugly, restless, cunning, treacherous, profound and fatalistic language of the outcast and squalic underworld, the world of hunger and pauperism- les misérables. There exists, at the bottom of all abasement and misfortune, a last extreme which rebels and joins battle with the forces of law and respectability in a desperate struggle, waged partly by cunning and partly by violence, at once sick and ferocious, in which it attacks the prevailing social order with the pin-pricks of vice and the hammer-blows of crime. And for the purpose of this struggle the underworld has its own battle-language, which is argot.”
