This year’s green hop season has been brilliant. Two of the best are pouring at @thegreengoddesspub.bsky.social today. @kernelbrewery.bsky.social Wet Hop Bitter, all complex malts, sticky hop oils, then @elusivebrewing.com Green Hopper, crisp, fragrant, a lovely twist of bitterness on the finish.

There’s a lot of good sense in his. I hope Labour listen.

🌳 As a #NationalTrust member I’ve just voted for the recommended slate to keep out the bogus, right-wing entryists of “Restore Trust”. Anything this creep wants is bad for Britain and bad for our heritage.

One vital reason to vote in the National Trust elections and for the NT endorsed candidates. We can't risk the Restore Trust candidates getting any influence on it.

It should be needless to say, but it is perhaps at this moment worth saying, that transgender individuals have the same right as anyone else to life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness.

I’ve mulled over posting this for months now. But yesterday it came to a head. And I’m aware that the people who need to see it will either not be here, or will suggest that I’m lying.
I live near an asylum hotel. The reason I didn’t post earlier is that I didn’t want to raise undue attention

Cis people being weird about trans people makes me think about king crabs.
Bear with me for this one because it will make sense.
You know king crabs, right? Giant crab, lives up north, has long legs, very expensive and tasty, featured on many a mukbang
