Teenager on train: I'm not a feminist.
Mum: Do you want to own things and decide who you sleep with?
Teen: Yeah.
Mum: You're a feminist.

Creatives4Sudan Fundraising Auction — Keep Eyes On Sudan Creatives coming together to raise life-saving funds for the people escaping genocide in El-Fasher, Sudan

CREATIVES! A gang of us are organising an auction raising funds for mutual aid groups in Sudan, amid the war on civilians. Can YOU contribute to the auction? Perhaps a piece of art or music? Signed books? Embroidery? Half an hour of creative mentoring? Sign up here! www.sudancoup.com/auction

Grid of nine images featuring retro-themed items, including a t-shirt, framed prints, phone case, Christmas gift wrap, cushion, and a mug.

It's been a very quiet week.
As a small business owner that’s a bit scary heading into my busy season.

So, if you're looking for unique #Christmas gifts, I make prints, homewares, cards & accessories inspired by midcentury design, music & architecture.

Have a nosy here gailmyerscough.co.uk

At the 2024 funeral of Pål Enger, who stole Edvard Munch’s “The Scream” from Norway's National Gallery in 1994 (leaving behind a note: “a thousand thanks for your poor security”), not one but two photos of his getaway ladder were displayed, and his coffin was draped in a reproduction of "The Scream"

(I met one of my oldest friends thanks to that line. Someone just said it while arguing, and we both laughed. Awkward as hell, but we’ve been friends ever since!)

Vic! Vic! I fallen

You wouldn’t let it lie!

Sometimes people can say the sweetest things and not realise it

One of the people I support at work (adult with a learning disability) commented on the grey streaks in my hair, then said ‘and two colours are better than one’

My grey has never bothered me, but they made it something special

A screenshot from amazon for LOKIL A BAD GOD'S GUIDE TO CAUSING CHAOS. It has the additional text in the title, in the manner that publishers favour these days, saying Trickster Norse god turned school kid - the brand new book in the hilarious comics-style diary series for 7-11 year olds (Loki: A Bad God's Guide, 5) There is a #1 Bestseller flag in Children's Books on Religions

This remains the funniest category for my book to be in, kudos to whover did the metadata.

We got the news late last night.
Looking forward to a proper celebration with the cast at our next rehearsals!

bro biologists won't even agree on the definition of "alive" you think you can get them to back you on "two genders" lmao

Amazing news!
Last year’s Panto won the Celebrate Aberdeen Event of the year award!!!

We’ve got 2 weeks till the next one (Cinderella in Chaos, 14th & 15th November, Aberdeen Arts Centre) so this is a really great boost as we get ready to for the final push

A black background decorated with gold illustrations of branches, stars, swords, ravens, and tiny ghost shapes. In the centre, bold text reads: “BIRDS BUT THEY GET SPOOKIER EACH TIME.” Two ravens perch on bare branches at the bottom, with candles glowing beside them.

Birds but they get spookier each time. 🎃👻

Enter if you dare...🚪

The stoned superheroes have staggered off into the night to be replaced by a Mario themed group and an exhausted looking sexy cat / vampire.

Getting the bus home after work and Spiderman and Shazam are both here looking very stoned

I do love public transport on Halloween!

This is correct

And now I want to watch Fury Road

Nearly used my hair-curl-cream stuff instead of my moisturiser. The containers are not even vaguely similar and aren’t even near each other

My brain is just not braining today

Also, really like that they have the trailer for the next series ready to go. No waiting around, hoping it’s coming back and having to wait years for the next one

And River is still an over-confident idiot by the looks of things

Finished up #SlowHorses

Lamb may have moved up a place or two in my ‘all time top 10 tv characters’ list. Gary Oldman is just too good!

#WorldFantasyConvention2025

Will add that to my weekend-off-viewing-list! Thanks

Thanks to work and panto rehearsals, we can’t watch it until Thursday evening. It will be torture waiting!

That’s also on my list!

For now I’m happy selling books and pottering about with my rescue dog

I have been playing @tinybookshopgame.com on my days off - really enjoying it for a nice chilled out, low pressure game

Thanks for the recommendation @chrisbrosnahan.com

The witch took her hands off the patient's body.

"First of all," she said with absolute conviction, "there's nothing wrong with you."

"The doctor-"

"Said you must be either man or woman?"

"That it's black or white, no grey."

"Nonsense. Every colour in the rainbow is between black and white."

I love that show!

Might dig out the dvds for my days off

“I’ve never felt so clean”

I had a one of those recently - mentioned that I had a ‘big’ birthday coming up (50) and was told “there’s no way your nearly 40!”

On one hand, it’s great, on the other, people assume you have less experience

Ending the episode with the Giant Ball game might just make up for all the dribbling #TaskMaster

KUMQUAT!!!

In context though, that single fish finger was fairly satisfying
