Went to see @storiesalt.bsky.social (Chris Gregory) play at The Water Rats last night, with his band, The Lokeys! Met the amazing Tiffany Clare there - aka Valentina Vardi in Dex ♥️ Fantastic sell-out show. Listen to their album, Terminal Velocity 🎧 it’s really good!

So that’s me being gently told “I’m about to go on important calls…” by my spouse… because I was singing Golden with my headphones on loud enough to carry up the stairs through two closed doors 😅🫣

Gents, as a 36 y-o woman I cannot begin to tell you how galling it is to be referred to as a “girl”.
And the fact that this will be met with derision (from some) is an inevitable consequence of suggesting that (most) men should do better.
