I walk, and draw and write badly.
My hiking journals aren’t very interesting, but they’re very me.

I'm going to go out on a limb and say that in recent years, the British public has made some shocking decisions.
Perhaps we should either stop asking them questions, or stop paying any attention to the answers.
I call this the Brexit McBoatface principle.

British public’s verdict is in: Die Hard is not a Christmas movie
Survey also reveals Britons’ favourite festive film, views on tear-jerkers and family cinema trips
When Macaulay Culkin recently said he didn’t consider Die Hard to be a Christmas film – wading into one of pop culture’s most heated holiday debates – he was booed by a live audience.
But it looks like the British people are behind the actor, with a survey revealing that Home Alone is the UK’s favourite festive film, while Die Hard has officially been voted not a Christmas movie. Continue reading...

Guys, guys - look deeper into the whole "Is Die Hard a Christmas movie?" debate. No-one is REALLY talking about Die Hard. Everyone is ACTUALLY talking about themselves. "I am a maverick." "I am a film buff." "I am a traditionalist." "I am Gen Z." "I reject confected debate." It's CUTE.

It is the spark of divinity that transcends its innate substance, both material and immaterial, and inspires humanity to continually create, innovate and grow as a species.

Simply glorious conditions on Sgòr Gaoith in the Cairngorms today. A favourite hill, but seldom more beautiful than this. Hope you had time to get out and enjoy the conditions, wherever you went - whether up high, down in the glens, out on the coast or deep in the woods.

Oh my god who fucking cares lads. Why are you basing policy on whether or not you're meeting a budget forecast by a billion here or there, it's not real. There are far more important things to concern yourself with!
This OBR/Treasury row on who said what, when... is very muddy and complicated.
A few points:
• idea that the OBR said on Oct 31 Reeves was already meeting her target by £4b isn't really the full picture - fcast excluded the welfare u-turns since March (some media have pointed that out, others not)

If you think that the current state of trans healthcare in the UK is because of concern or caution, I'd encourage you to think again.
It's not medically informed, it's a reactionary response to transphobic bigotry whipped up into a frenzy over the past few years.
And it costs lives.
