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
That stages of grief woman got the emotions bang on. I seem to be rapidly cycling through them some days and other weeks floating through different ones much longer. What is really helping though is my having taken LSD. Not recently, but in the past. (Seriously it was hard already to get hold of it, … Read More
I have been and am very lucky. I’m very social as standard, I have a lot of friendly acquaintances and friends and I honestly haven’t found this lockdown to be an isolating experience. Dad dying did completely shut me down, there appeared at least three people at my door bearing gifts and cards and flowers … Read More
I have a particular relationship with makeup. I am absolutely fascinated by it, I used to nick my cousins make-up when I was a kid, probably because I wasn’t allowed any when I was that young. (She’s a year older than me). Maybe just because I was an annoying kid. I had one of those … Read More
I listen to a lot of True Crime podcasts. I read a lot of True Crime too. I’m aware of patterns of behaviour of criminals, and to be fair the interesting ones are very similar to the boring ones they just tend to be smarter, more personable or luck into a blind spot in the … Read More
Today’s prompt is the best part of being Queer. I mean I don’t want to repeat yesterday exactly but it’s the people. I felt hugely an outsider growing up, I’d guess that basically everyone has that experience in their teens, I don’t know if all nerds have it when they’re younger. I certainly did, it … Read More
I don’t know that there is a part of Queer culture that I vibe with. I watch a lot of the easy to digest RuPaul shows but that’s not really vibing so much as passively consuming. Same with queer music, and to be honest I’m not sure I’m a huge consumer of Queer music. I … Read More
I originally thought I wanted to share something contemporary. Raise the profile of someone currently creating. But the thing is, I love Art, I love Art History, that hasn’t changed since I was eighteen, well it might have deepened somewhat. There’s a period I have loved since I did my A Level personal project on … Read More
When I received the bouquet with these words I assumed they went with the condolence cards that had come. They seemed kind and I smiled. Today I received a package of vegan chocolate in the post, for me but again no name or note as to who had sent them. That’s when the flowers started … Read More
Ok I don’t live in Manchester but I did rather enjoy the All Together One Voice concert this evening. They picked some good songs and it had the feel of some of Folkestone Pagans COVID lockdown rituals, I mean I felt like I was participating with others as a community. I guess I’m surprised by … Read More
