Congratulations! Fantastic news 🥂

Congrats! Taking a break before you delve into draft 2, or is your first a solid one? Either way: time to celebrate!🥳

Have just seen Sinners. It’s transcendent. So drop whatever you’re doing, and go see it immediately.

Hell yeah.

Today’s research is on stone pele towers, Hume’s is/ought problem, and how Karst makes their stone paper.

Folk horror really contains multitudes.

Ooh, I like that! Gorgeous design.

Looking forward to it!

Here’s the good stuff, lol!

A goose resting on a green lawn in the morning sunshine, squinting suspiciously up at the camera.

More geese than ghosts so far, alas.

In York for hauntological fun and games. First challenge: spelling hauntology 👻

It wouldn’t be brave of me not to revise; it would be bravery for the poor person who had to read it 🤣

Good luck with the rewrites! I’m assuming you didn’t accidentally end up in Poole? 🤣

Day 2 as wonderful as day 1! Excellent presentations throughout both days, leaving me with lots to think about (and work with!)

Was excellent! Fascinating material and all very interesting. Thank you!

‘In’ for a treat. Gah.

Boxes of crisps on a shelf: there’s salted egg fish skin and salted egg yolk flavour.

Too bad my suitcase is full else @devilligan.bsky.social would have been on for a…treat…?

Sweet Jesus. Can you imagine trying to work in an environment where people think talking like that is normal? Trying to stay sane?

Also, that starting salary 🙄

Decent view yesterday 🇦🇺

Excellent.

I knew you wouldn’t be able to resist a return to That Game 😇

All booked! A lovely folk horror day in a lovely folk horror town 😀

Shared and signed. The Prince Charles is an absolute jewel.

Sharing. And also: ffs. Landlords and their greed are determined to destroy everything.

Yes to Weisshaupt pt2! Good times 😊

Agreed. This is a horrifying parent-child dynamic - and it won’t suddenly have become so.

If the son were younger, this would be enough to contact triage with a safeguarding concern.

Brilliant! Here’s to another 38,000 more 🥂

Yep. I’ll be avoiding that too, now 😒

For anybody who’s looking for a little something to watch today…

I believe ‘footling about’ is a vital element of the pre-writing process.

Where were you four hours ago? 🤣

Also, thanks 🤩 Might be using one (or two) of those…
