Industrial scale snark with posts about customs, borders and the EU. Proud rejoiner. You won't like me if you support Brexit.
I'm sure I'm late to the party here, but I'm currently obsessed with Caitlin Doughty's YouTube channel.

Confession time. I'd let this account lie fallow for a while. My humble apologies for those who I hadn't followed back. Hopefully I'm all caught up and I'll play on here more often - promise.

Well goodbye Athens, I shall miss you. Not the daily attempts by thieves to break into our apartment of course, but in general it's been great.

I used to work with someone who voted Tory. His wife was a teacher, and his son had special needs. So whenever he voted, he denied his wife a pay rise and cut the budget for his son’s education. That’s how stupid and selfish Tory voters are.
