If you could go back to the age of 20, but had to choose between being 20 in the present day, or in the era when you were originally 20, which would you choose?

Me; without a shadow of a doubt, I’d go back to being 20 in the 90s…

In front of a sash window is a small square wooden table which holds a small stack of bound books. Atop the books is a glass lantern, glowing with light. 
In front of the books sits a small samhain offering: A tealight in a glass saucer sprinked with walnuts,sage and rosemary, a small crystal glass of red wine, and an apple robed in candlelight

Missing that one human who thinks of you above everything to wish you a goodnight and make sure your safe.

Unrealistic aspirations- a saga.

'Just getting started': Zack Polanski reacts as Greens SECOND in new poll ZACK Polanski has welcomed a new poll putting his party in second place at Westminster.

So either Labour need to ask candidates to step aside for the Greens to take on Reform....

Or actually bring in a fair democratic process where everyone's votes count equally.

It's time for Proportional Representation.

The classic monster was actually driven by a mouse pulling its hair. And somehow the thought makes it even more intense

Sometimes you just need to sit down and have a good, long talk with yourself. You may be surprised by what you learn.

Things I'll never understand.
Like how someone can genuinely feel enough rage to genuinely want to and then truly and with intent, remove the life and pulse of another living creature.
The original crime against our own humanity is devaluing its existence in another, enough to eradicate it.

Knife crime.
But it's like that one episode of Red Dwarf (Justice, series 4) where any act of violence attempted ends up being enacted on yourself.

Sorry for burping, but I just deleted an inappropriately emotional info dump and I think I swallowed some air along with it.

That one recurring reel on Instagram of a police officer bringing an axe weillding assailant to the ground with nothing more than a swanky neck crushing leg leap.
No gun.
No big grand postulating.
Job done.

Is it warm in here?
