Bit sad, angry when I have the energy, grateful for community and the gods
It’s my birthday so I wrote a thing melancholypolytheist.wordpress.com/2025/08/17/b...
Bloody hell I’m old
43. Crikey. I’ve been doing A LOT this year and this is the first birthday in a while I haven’t had to have time off for my mental health. Summers are rough for me, this one is no exception, but so…

My first post in a while - not a cheery one melancholypolytheist.wordpress.com/2025/05/28/h...
How can we come back from this?
I write sporadically on this blog, mostly for the friends of mine that like to read it. Keeps people updated despite the agoraphobia. I’ve mostly used it to share creative projects, or chat about m…

LARPing and burning out
I’ve been doing a lot. Might not be a lot for others, but for me… oof. I had a wonderful Christmas. The best in years, certainly since I was diagnosed with depression and all the attached things. A…

The latest peculiar whim I enacted. It kind of worked. Huh. melancholypolytheist.wordpress.com/2025/01/14/m...
Mince pie (sort of) Pemmican?
I love to cook. It’s been a source of comfort and inspiration for years, along with a way to show people how much I care for them. In the past this has shown itself in making 3 course meals with wi…

A load of baubles
Well that was a week. Something had to give, and inevitably I was going to have a bit of a lull at some point this December. Last weekend I was riding high, planning a family chat over zoom, watchi…

The only problem with starting to feel better mentally is waiting for my mood to go down again melancholypolytheist.wordpress.com/2024/12/06/i...
I fricken’ love being festive
Oh man, I am unable to express how much I love this time of year. I feel like I should be a Halloween person (and I sort of am), but really I’m a Christmas/Winter Solstice kind of guy. Sure, Hallow…

Advent is upon us, I have a calendar and everything! Just hoping I don’t completely wear myself out while I insist on sewing, crocheting, crafting, and generally celebrating melancholypolytheist.wordpress.com/2024/12/02/m...
Merry Decembermas!
It’s that time again, when I try and do far too much on all the days running up to the festivities, and then wonder why I feel so tired and worn out by the 21st. But not this year! Honestly, as I’v…

Welp, back to work tomorrow after Consequences, I wrote it up on my blog, no photos this time, too tired. melancholypolytheist.wordpress.com/2024/11/26/f...
Friendship is magic but disability sucks.
Last weekend I was lucky enough to attend a 3 day Freeform LARP convention called Consequences. I’ve been going for a few years now, and it’s been one of my favourite weekends of the year. I’ve mad…

WIPs and UFOs
Erm, happy Samhain? You may have noticed that I have missed Samhain by some considerable time. And I had such plans! I had originally wanted to finish a cardigan, another cross-stitch piece, and mo…

Making stuff and letting it be a bit crap
Those who have read previous posts might recall that I said I was working on a lot of creative projects. I didn’t post about them for various reasons, one of them being that a lot weren’t even near fi...

Hey it's me, Sonic the Hedgehog!
Did you know you don't have to write every thought you have on the computer?
That's right - believe it or not there are many cases where the thrill of likes and reposts do not outweigh the potential real world consequences, regardless of how unlikely they are!

I said I might do some more blogging this year after enjoying doing it in the run up to Christmas, so for your reading pleasure I present ‘A Tale of Tailoring’ or ‘it’s not great, but I’m glad I did it’.
