Lads, it's a shit day to be "other" in the UK. And I say that as a cis, straight, white woman who speaks fluent English with an acceptable accent. Love to everyone that's as exhausted by the bullshit as I am.

Everything is awful, but my 9yo kiddo was a graphic novel writing workshop yesterday and....produced this.... 🤣 (Cc @louiestowell.bsky.social @jamiesmart.bsky.social who are both responsible for this)

@nigella.bsky.social my 8 year old has decided he wants to learn to bake and go on Bake Off, so I've started him on your cupcake recipe....we've added raspberries and lemon cream cheese frosting for - and I quote - extra pizzazz. He'll be popular in school tomorrow. 😁

I had the loveliest dream this morning, wherein I was stuck on the Isle of Skye due to ferry issues and was staying in makeshift accommodation just off a beach with the most beautiful sunsets. Woke up, realised Skye has a bridge. Dream ruined by logic. 😆

@jamiesmart.bsky.social My 8 YO has put together some character designs and started writing his own comics, inspired by your books. He's very proud and wanted you to see them. 😁

Who's going to tell Gggggggregggg that the reason #MiddleClassWomenOfACertainAge are the ones calling him out is because they're the one with sufficient privilege to do so. Unlike, for ex, a chef in her 20s trying to progress her career in a field he has much influence over?

I appear to have volunteered to make a quilt for the Linus Project as a wee shared project with the kiddo. I have no idea what I'm doing. He thinks I'm the queen of crafting. This'll be interesting.

Riddle me this....I've set this up with minimal info, mostly to ensure I get my username and to see what the fuss is about. How does the algorithm know to show me German language stuff?
