I never know what to say. Cats. Kindness. Disney. Canada. Social justice. Fun. Also, did I mention I'm a trauma therapist?

Yes.
All I want is a humble castle on the Irish coast, a crackling fire, a vintage mystery novel, an emotional support raven, a raging thunderstorm, a few purring cats, endless cups of tea, and a scandalous amount of freshly-baked pastries.

Very excited to be kicking off my second season of Scrooge: A Christmas Carol Podcast. This season, I'm going From Mickey Mouse to the Muppets, so of course I'm starting with Mickey's Christmas Carol.

Following from the last of @scroogepod.bsky.social 's deep dive into A Christmas Carol, one of my favourite lines in the book:
"Shaving was not an easy task, for his hand continued to shake very much; and shaving requires attention, even when you don't dance while you are at it."
Such joy.

"And I realise I'm now giving footnotes on my footnotes..." 😂This podcast is a delight.
As is the final stave. Hearing it read out loud brings such life to the words and reminds me of little pieces that I have loved over the years.

"Opportunity" to surrender Ukraine puts the world at risk by emboldening fascists to disregard free nations.
@mark-carney.bsky.social Allowing #trump #putin to take Ukraine is opportunity for them. We want you to resist this!

I keep getting told that our Prime Minister has a plan. That he is smart. But sucking up to gangsters isn't smart.
Ending the Russian invasion of Ukraine cannot be about the west going along with Trump's dreadful appeasement of Putin.

This is epic, and getting me through until season 2 in November! Can't wait! Mickey Mouse to the Muppets ❤️.
For now, here's the deep dive into the last of the spirits. I've read this book many times in my life, have given it serious thought. And still I'm learning things in this series! Love it.

Having basically fruit for lunch. I get so excited with all the summer fresh fruit and buy with careless abandon, forgetting that I live alone.
And then it starts to go bad... 😩

Nothing feels as good as when you're home from the beach, freshly-showered, jammied up, with a snack on the couch. This is what summer is about.

I don’t know who needs to hear this, but your belief that a bookshelf with a rolling ladder will fix you is a valid one.
Anyone who tells you otherwise is not worthy of your friendship.

Love this. The idea of self-comfort vs self-care. Both are really important!
reminder that self-care isn’t just buying a sweet treat. it’s also doing the “boring” things. wash your face, brush your teeth, take a shower. you’re important and you matter. you deserve to take care of yourself. 💚

OMG this was amazing, in the so-bad-it's-good sense. Also, the comentary is dry, epic, and had me laughing out loud. "We get it. You think his movies are nothing more than propaganda, as opposed to this politically neutral comedy masterpiece we're watching."
If you ever asked yourself, "What if instead of A Christmas Carol, we got an American conservative diatribe," well... that's specific. And I guess An American Carol is for you.
