Radio presenter, poet, activist, ex-con. Oh c'mon it's not like nobody knows. Word was always going to get out eventually that I went on to become a radio presenter.
2025: moping, why are they back on my mind, I wonder what they're even up to

2026: when did their personality get so gross and when did they lose the attractiveness that made their behaviour excusable previously 🎉

Going into 2026 finally realising that somebody I was once absolutely crazy about has become completely ridiculous ♥️✨

Fellow Mad people: do you go a bit Mad during the holidays? How do you deal with it? The embarrassment and maybe even the shame, or the responsibility?

The inner yearning of my heart, I guess

Can't tell if I'm actually aromantic or if I'm just that meme of Pingu saying, "Well now I am not doing it"

I had a big cry on the train to London recently, like being 36 and reading poetry and listening to The Decemberists and crying on a train on the way to an industry awards ceremony, I've become a certain kind of rom-com trope for sure

I haven't posted on BlueSky for a while because I'm new here and self conscious that I therefore don't have very many followers. Cool news though I won like three more industry awards, including the Rose D'Or, which was very lovely indeed. I wore a turban and hugged Louis Theroux.

I have weird vibes today, like being hungover on the 27tj December, despite being neither. So I've got some quality street to bring it home

Now that Facebook knows I like clip on ponytails the targeted ads all seem to be behaving like I'm about to go bald at any moment, you know how like Tik tok can tell if you're autistic before you know? Is it like that? We demand to know what Facebook knows about idiopathic alopecia

the pistachio lindor are very rich, difficult to eat because of how rich they are, but are they *good*?

Someone I know with BPD is currently splitting on me and whilst I know it's her illness and it comes from a place of self loathing, it's still not fucking nice to be told that the sight of me makes her sick to her stomach. That one really landed, that hurt.

one day we'll understand that the oppression of poor people is just as significant as any other oppression and things might change, until then it seems perfectly fine and we should all go on telling poor people how to live probably

Some kind of thing about how my biggest achievement was called The Ballad of Scout and the Alcohol Tag, and the Elliott Smith song that best describes me is The Ballad of Big Nothing, is that anything
