Content most likely about homelessness, trauma, recovery, living on a boat in London, running a museum, cats etc
I hucked in all these logs across the moorings yesterday bc @mattturtle.bsky.social has a bad back, usually we do it together. Its half a tonne total so I feel suitably proud.

I caught up with the last couple weeks of @404media.co whilst I did it. Highly recommend subscribing to those guys.

There was a seal playing in the Thames this morning. Combined with this sunrise, as me and @mattturtle.bsky.social step off the moorings and back to the museum, it feels like the week should have blessings in it.

Wishing everyone a good one 😊

What a week. Been running the shelter since Tuesday with a fantastic bunch of people.

What a privilege it is to do this in our own way in our own building after so many years campaigning for better and more provision.

We are running our first ever emergency shelter here at the museum. The joy of simply being able to say "yes of course you can come in for the night" is such a contrast to having to try for hours (and often fail) to get someone indoors via official channels.
Our way should be normal

It's 1030 and I've watched the sunrise, been to the arcades in Soho to play my fave games, made the acquaintance of a Shaolin Monk who works there, had a really good coffee and now I'm on a mystery trip out of London somewhere from Marylebone.

Sober birthdays can be truly excellent. ❤️

Happy New Year to Pan and Monk from Snark and Snurkmaiden. They appreciate the poem and good vibes and return the sentiment. As does Matt, who doesn't have a hope of a chair by the fire just like every other day of the year.

Well that Christmas eve party day at the museum was absolutely mobbed, hectic, gorgeous and heartwarming in equal measure.
We're now eating pizza on the boat with the fire on and feeling a lot of gratitude for the amazing community we are a part of ❤️
Tomorrow will be even more mad lol

Planting spring bulbs on deck at high tide in the freezing dark just before Christmas is totally fine and normal, especially if you have one of these hats.
