Disabled content writer whose body is ageing slightly faster than his mind. And as I get older, the less I feel sure of. Frequently baffled.
In shouting into the void news, there are some really lovely people in here and a lot of warmth. Some weird catfishing, but mainly, it's really heartening.

@breneke.bsky.social Hey. Thanks for following back. I know next to nothing about Belgium apart from being a Tintin obsessive who has been to Brussels and Louvain le Neuve, but it sounds like you have a fascinating trajectory.

@inforapenny.bsky.social Sorry for the absolute randomness of this, but what is a 'gnostic Christian' and how do you live that out? I ask because I'm having an epic tussle with faith.

I was recently laid off by ARTnews, a few days before the theft at the Louvre. The terms of my TN work visa means I can't freelance unless I donate the funds to charity. I'm open to new FT roles in business reporting and communications, and am willing to relocate to other cities, including Toronto.

Shouting at the void news.
Off to work, armed with Baclofen and self-deprecation. Which is always a way of being defensive without being rude.

@tomtomorrow.bsky.social I've loved your work for a regrettably ling time and never thought to say thank you. So here is that thank you. In a world where people seem reluctant to go there, you're building a railroad to, er, there. And busily running one way journeys.

isn't the loss of security.
It's the loss of the capacity

Hey y'all, looks like things might get rough for folks. I'll be donating to Food Bank for NYC but if you want to donate as well, I'll match to $1000.

Shouting at the void news, day whatever.
Job starts at nine and I'm working from home. Ergo, I'm still in bed, contemplating my own mortality and gently breaking wind.

worth applying to politics as well. when you're criticizing an action people take "taking the better action next time" is only one of the alternatives people will consider, and worth remembering that "not bothering at all" is another.

Shouting into the void, the afternoon edition.
I survived ALDI and filling up the car without falling on my stupid face or looking anything other than human. And I'm thinking about writing my own stuff again for shits and giggles.

Also, apologies to the people I'm following. If it's a breach of etiquette then I'm sorry and can only say that I've not been here long enough for wisdom to kick in.

Continuing my shouting into the void.
I've started this account so I'm not bothering loved ones with a tortured internal monologue and can go on looking stoic and saying self-deprecating things. Day three of this experiment, and I'd say it's working.

Sunday internal melodrama.
That's the thing about an MS diagnosis. You have to say to yourself, is this really where it fucking ends? Am I done now? Is that it? I always wanted to be Harold, but it turns out I'm going to be Maude and that seems bastard unfair.

Part of this charming health condition is waking up after a long sleep and feeling like you need another long sleep. And that your spine has been rearranged by people with hammers. It's enough that I've vented here, but... balls.

I've got a BA in Eng Lit, a Masters in communication and I'm sat here breaking my tiny, rubbish brain trying to understand William Blake's 'Auguries of Innocence'. If a patient person with a bigger brain can explain it, I'd be grateful.

I for one think the Epstein Ballroom will be magnificent. I love the decor theme of “what if Uday Hussein ran a Ramada Inn.” And giving it a theme song everyone will associate with it is a stroke of brilliance! “Thank Heaven for Little Girls” is very catchy.

Hey up, BlueSky. I'm interested in seeing what you're about and I'm really not about to give Mr Musk the grace of my attention. So here I am, as Virginia Woolf nearly said.
