Five Siblings at 23 is my most personal book to date. It explores complex family relationships, family secrets, and managing relatives dealing with alcoholism and infidelity. It also reflects my life as a gay man, as well as my two decades of experience as a foster carer #books

Holy hell, UK you do not want this.
I have "good" insurance and I've got meds that run 2.3k per dose still.
I've pissed out kidney stones at work because any ER visit will cost me 3k.
I had a hospital send me home just to have a second one go "oh no, you're at risk for cascading organ failure."

Privately educated multi-millionaire Nigel Farage, caught on camera at a private political fund raisinger, being very clear about his plans to replace the NHS with a US-style insurance healthcare system (45,000 US citizens die each year due to lack of health insurance)

My favourite memory from my recent holiday to Gran Canaria was being on stage at a drag cabaret show, sitting on the lap on a drag queen, and being asked what I did for a living. I said I was head of PR for TESLA and was solidly booed by several hundred audience members. Superb!

I’ve been offline for a bit, but I’m just guessing that in the past 24 hours:
1. Rowling expressed another awful opinion
2. Trump did something monumentally stupid
3. Badenoch exercised the political judgement of a toddler

I do love this time of year. My husband’s a very talented and dedicated gardener, and from now on there’ll be pops of colour appearing all over our garden.
