There is a special kind of heartbreak when people still send you TV jobs.

I want nothing more than to have a career that I love and gives me self worth, and to not exist in a body that betrays me and prevents that.

Instead I feel worthless and lost. A huge part of what makes me *me* was robbed.

And that's my account over on The Dark Place deleted. Enjoy shouting into the void, terfs and other fascists - absolutely no law requires me to listen to or entertain your shite. Enjoy your echo chamber.

Every week I go to a free community meal at a centre run by a Baptist church. There's no religious requirement and most of the other people who go are Muslim refugees being housed in hotels. They are absolutely wonderful people, we have a brilliant laugh and I will fight anyone degrading them.

Aging and health issues are a HUGE anxiety trigger for me, but one of the worst things is how violently ill I get just from daring to do something normal like go for a walk. I feel absolutely godawful today.
I'm still living in hope after a year on a waiting list the NHS will help though.

Portsmouth with target panic - scored 91. Most of my ends only scored a 1. Yes it's frustrating, but all 3 arrows are in the boss, not on the floor, ceiling, target stand, stopper curtain etc!! So, it's progress. #archery #archeryjourney

The "bluesky is an echo chamber" think pieces that keep popping up really tickle me because they show how certain people genuinely believe social media should be for debating and arguing and not talking about the things that make you happy and sharing art with the world.

Using my horsebow now. Not great but much better than the beginning of the night where I shot the floor, boss stands, back curtain and at one point the roof 🙈 the target panic is slowly being beaten back into submission. #archery

Everyone trying to work out why video games aren’t selling anymore — “Too many games? Prices are too low? Marketing is hard?” — when the answer this time around is actually simple:

The world got *fucked* and no-one has any money

People are struggling to pay bills and rent, let alone buy your game

Passed my range assessment yesterday, can't wait to be back shooting again. Just the horrendous target panic to conquer now! #archery #archer

🚨 Those from upper-middle-class backgrounds, and the privately-educated, are significantly overrepresented in the creative professions in the UK.

Our new research uncovers stark inequalities in access to careers in the creative industries, including television, film, and music 🧵

Everything sucks. The world is on fire. But never forget you are loved and needed. Have a snow monkey to take with you on your journey and bask in it's gift of serenity.

I'm hopefully starting archery again on Tuesday. A small bright spot in an otherwise dark time.

I should probably say something eloquent but all my brain is doing right now is "Aaaaaaaaah!!!! 😱😱😁😁🎉"

Note to self: post here more.

I wish I had something happy to say, but I'm honestly just depressed. Months without work - editing or any kind - being turned down for normal jobs I can do in my sleep - feel like I have little purpose anymore. I know that's not true but it's very hard.

Unexpected Yule gift to myself by passing my grading for yellow belt! I didn't know it was a grading until I was presented with my paperwork 😅💛🥋

Applying for "normal" jobs and trying not to feel like I've failed, even though I know it's super tough in the industry right now. I need to be able to pay my rent. 😭

Well, I think it could've gone better, I was a bit shit on one of the tech questions. But I think I was ok on the rest, could've been far worse.
