One way I have found to mourn someone is to set up a monthly sustaining donation to a mutual aid effort they cared about. If you can join me in honoring Alice Wong, @sfdirewolf.bsky.social with a sustaining donation today, please do. Thank you Alice, and I will not let the bastards grind me down.

starting to feel a little bit like something on my chest is buzzing the tiniest bit every now and again, which i assume is some sort of nerve regeneration thing starting up?

Her legacy is the voices she lifted, the systems she shook, and the hope she instilled. The disabled people's community are honoured to have her in our lineage. Rest in power, Alice. ✨ /5

4x paracetamol doses
4x dihydrocodeine doses

3.2 litres of various liquids (sounds like a lot but 3L is my normal!! and i didn’t have a huge amount yday)

top surgery hive mind: if one side hurts more than the other is that normal and okay? left side is sooooore, it’s all okay as long as i’m super still but any movement is much less fun

(had surgery yesterday, if this goes beyond my usual circle!)
November 14, 2025 at 10:03 PM
annoyingly my fitbit is NOT catching my steps today and i can’t figure out if it’s being weird or if i’m just walking really carefully so it thinks i’m basically floating?? either way i wanted to use it to gauge if i’m doing gentle movement enough so it’s a pain lol

aaauughh just took the binder off to check everything bc the discharge papers say to do that (but they don’t say like, when? do i do it once a day or do i leave it until i’m a few days in?) and getting the binder back on was SO SORE and SO SCARY and i wish i had just left it on ☹️☹️☹️

My mum has been making needle felted mice for a few years and enjoys challenging herself with new themes and ideas. She's just set up her first exhibition at the stately home she volunteers at, with a family of period mice. Incredible.

Blimey. Major new split in Your Party. Blackburn MP Adnan Hussain -who is secretary of the Your Party company - says he's quitting due to "persistent infighting, factional competition, and a struggle for power, position and influence rather than a shared commitment to the common good."
