New year, new list of excellent books I've read!
1 - Exploring the Labyrinth: vol 1 by Kit Power
Starting strong with non-fiction. I've never read a single Brian Keene book, I have no intention of reading any, but Kit's voice is so compelling that I smashed through this! Highly recommend!

Today is your last day for this. It closes a minute before midnight, but takes a little while to complete.
Tomorrow is the last day for people living in the UK to complete a govt consultation on particular immigration proposals. Here's my earlier post about it, which includes the links and background information.
Their proposals are cruel bollocks that need to be stopped.

I've had to explain to the school why neither HP nor The Boy In The Strîp3d... are suitable class books
And got told "I didn't know because I don't keep up with things online" 🤦♀️
Kiddo is going to request the school library gets your Loki books in.
And some of L D Lapinski's books.

Folkoresky Has anyone heard of a superstition, possibly Tudor in date, of putting spoons out on the table upside down (with the back of the bowl facing upwards) to keep evil spirits away from the table?

Absolutely abhorrent. This is unconscionable.
In an alarming development, it appears the UK Government covered up a massive spike in trans youth suicides after restrictions.
Then covered it up again when caught.
Now, after fighting for years, the data is public: trans suicide increased 5x in the country.

The first time I met @dutifulmurdock.bsky.social we spent seven hours chatting.
The next morning I opened the door and she had her hair down instead of in a ponytail and I genuinely had no idea who she was.
Thankfully as my brain was circling she said hi whilst putting her hair in a ponytail!
