Everything is exceptionally hard at the moment. For everyone obviously, but this is my damned blog so I’m going to write about me. All that adrenaline that I was operating on last year is just stopping me in my tracks, like, not the heaviness of grief but something akin to the swampiness of depression. My … Read More
I’m doing a sponsored plank for pangolins and today I managed ten seconds – not great but I’m still proud. The idea is to add ten seconds each day… I am, nervous to say the least.
I am feeling very done with things today. I’m fed up of The Jellicle being in isolation over at Imp’s house and I feel like job wise the pandemic has just caused everything to slide backwards. I don’t really mean for me I mean for the vulnerable people I work with. However I also mean … Read More
Last year I wrote about having a community of elders rather than a single mentor. This year I’m returning to the notion of what mentorship actually is, my sister is involved in a more formal mentorship program, obviously this isn’t a Queer thing this is a Woman thing cause my sister at least claims to … Read More
I love The Princess but her attitude to death I find weird. It really bugged me her not wanting to talk about the serious bits after Dad died and how she actively flinched from his box of ashes. I’ve been thinking a lot about death this week because it’s been a year since Dad died. … Read More

I’m basically betting on my O-negative blood beating out my dodgy immune system and sucky lungs. I’m not as nervous as I was back when no … Read More
I’ve done a couple of online LARPs this year, that is to say, they were all *called* LARPS and proved that some LARPERs have clearly not done much roleplay by post, tabletop or forum RP. LARP stands for Live Action Roleplay guys, not just Roleplay… ahem, right that’s my irritating pedantry out of the way. … Read More
Le week-end dernier, je suis allée à une boum! Mais, c’est ne pas correct. J’ai organisé une fête! C’etait en ligne. J’ai utilisé Discord et j’aime bien les resultes. Beaucoup des personnes attendes et j’ai été surpris parce que c’est un peu difficile d’assister d’une soirée enligne. Ma soeur et new neveux attends avec mon … Read More
So, I’m at the point where this has become Hard. As in I actively do not want to do this anymore. I want to hug my friends. I want to call up a lover and fuck. I want to have a party where we are all jam packed into a garden. Obviously I’m not going … Read More
