I'm looking to revamp the Siren Events logo and branding. If anyone does this as a job / side hustle and is looking for some paid extra work and is interested, please DM me to discuss rates etc. My aim is to always support artists and designers in fandom, wherever possible.

It was! You're welcome. 😂❤️

Even better!

Bonus! I paid... £40.20 in 2022, which is more than I thought I'd paid. But less than three years ago is pretty good. They also do custom measurements, if needed.

Hello! I'm told our content overlapped yesterday. 🥰

🥹❤️ Thank you Rattie. You've done a ton of great work in that direction yourself, and you run the best pufferfish distribution service. 🫂🐡❤️

It was an excellent costume and an excellent panel ❤️

as you see only two flags here have hearts on them, guess whose flags these are 🤭

You know what would fix me? Season 3 of the hit television series Our Flag Means Death. AND/OR the Jenkins cut of the first 2 seasons

Leaving cosplay elements at home! @tricksyspirit.bsky.social

No problem! I'll let you know if any of us remember any more. 😂

Er. I don't think so. But let's see, we had... Caffeine free coffee, the only available veggie option containing aubergine, unexpected item in bagging area, too tight shoes, terrible hold music, screaming kids on buses, parking charges... Have posted to see if the name owners remember more.

I think that one was my favourite. 😂

I was! I wrote some of them, and had blank ones as well for people to write their own.

UKL: I have no great opinion of it. When so many adult critics were carrying on about the "incredible originality" of the first Harry Potter book, I read it to find out what the fuss was about, and remained somewhat puzzled; it seemed a lively kid's fantasy crossed with a "school novel", good fare for its age group, but stylistically ordinary, imaginatively derivative, and ethically rather mean-spirited.
