I hate on the House of Lords but I’m actually a fan of having a 2nd chamber, but ours needs total overhaul.
Out: Hereditary peers, CoE bishops, lifetime terms, inflated honour
In: Expert appointees, increased agency for arms length bodies eg UKRI to suggest appointments, public representation

In case anyone is curious as to how I accidentally met my estranged father - it was shopping at Christmas time about 25 years ago.
✨He gave me £40✨
I imagine (hope) it was the most awkward experience of his life.

I’ve seen my dad exactly 3 times in the past 30 years (and one of those was accidental).
Family is an active choice.

Yeah, no thanks.
Stop guilting people about being estranged from family members. It someone is they likely have personal reasons for being so.

Got the most wonderful present from the beautiful souls @aktcharity.bsky.social. One of their DomAndInk sweatshirts
I sent another £340 to them for this month’s sales meaning I finish the year with over £10,000 donated. Thank you all for making that happen ❤️

Hopeful of dancing into the holidays with that screen looking like a snow covered field.

Ready for my last stage of 2025 and it’s one of the prettiest.
What another incredible year it’s been. I feel so incredibly lucky for all the experiences I’ve had and the people who have been part of them.

What a lovely man! I needed two balloons for tonight’s show at Kings Place and this hero utterly refused to take any money for them. If you are ever near Kings Cross/IOP go visit Balloon Corner.

Cool, I’m on board!
Woohoo!
No. Absolutely not.
The framing of this is so incredibly off putting. I’m sure they keep the animals safe but I instantly lost all interest in the event when I saw this. It’s branded like a disco with snakes and lizards @nhm-london.bsky.social

I know I said I wasn’t posting my list of 2025 achievements as a reminder that you shouldn’t mark yourself against others.
But…
I just had my biggest win of the year- I’m in bed before midnight! Unheard of scenes. ✨

My journey to become Scrooge is almost complete. I’m taking my laptop to a Christmas party because a last minute change means I need to record a podcast interview half way through. 😂

Why does professional always mean conforming to confident masculine culture?
Screw that.
“Professional” is getting your job done. What’s not professional is thinking someone isn’t good at their job because they use emojis! 😤
Communication evolves, and the trajectory is to the less formal.
