Yeees, because truculently demanding someone answer your irrelevant questions isn't aggressively toxic at aaaalll...

Of course! It's all HER fault for being a woman in public! How dare she!

Look at my perfect little princess baby! So fierce and large! (She's 3 kilos of fluff and audacity.)

How short our memories are.

Just a few years ago, nurses carried this country through a pandemic, and now they're suffering a 55% surge in racist abuse.

To every nurse: London stands with you. You are loved and valued, and always will be.

Hmm. That means my sleep disorder (delayed sleep phase with a 4 hour offset) might be be an advantage. Huh. Like, midnight is the equivalent of 8pm for me. My circadian low doesn't really hit til 6-7am.

They'd have quite the hissy fit hearing me refer to Diane Abbot as Auntie Diane, out of respect.

I'm planning at least one or two squares in natural shades of Shetland next. I've got more rainbow gradients to spin up and I'm eyeing my dye pots speculatively.

A grey cat with pink nose, white face and chest sits next to a couple of brightly coloured knit squares. He gazes past the camera with a self satisfied expression.

Same image focussing more on the knit squares, the cat is still there but he is looking off to one side now

Been doing some knitting!

These are two and a bit blanket squares, based off of Frankie Brown's Ten Stitch Blanket, made from my heavy Aran to chunky weight handspun. It's lovely to be back on the knitting train again.

Might be more right-wing too.

Well, shit. It's after 5pm and I just woke up. I have two cats glaring pointedly at me for their breakfast. Oops.

Fell asleep on the sofa at midnight, so 4 hours early. Woke up after 5am and fed the cats. Will more sleep happen and will it involve moving to the bed? No clue.

The internet is worse than before, but it doesn't have to be. I chose to lead by example and made a forum I would want to use. We've got signatures, we've got gifs, we've got chatrooms, we've got a zero tolerance policy for bigotry.

And if we're very lucky, we've got you.

You might be able to get a good price on an old Switch, seeing as the Switch 2 is out now?

Finally started replying to my big pile of unread messages. I've done a good chunk of them. Now I need a lie down coz my heart is racing and I feel dizzy.

It's basically the same problem that I had with Corbyn, the heavy dunning-kruger effect about Scottish politics.

I ended up going to sleep on the sofa last night, but still managed to get to bed on time. I'm really struggling at responding to messages so if you've been hoping to hear from me...I'll get back to you when I can. Just, don't hold your breath, k?

Calling them cunts is an insult to people (of all genders or none) with vulvas.

On the other hand, I did ply multiple balls of yarn, finish a blanket square and start another one.

I need to stay awake and not nap on the sofa. Really don't wanna though.

Last week i lost my sleep pattern pretty severely. Several nights of going to bed and thrashing about for hours, then waking up late. Yesterday I switched back to the heavy weighted blanket and lighter quilt. Slept better but I'm still super eepy.

And how do we do that, petal?

We do it by appealing to said electorate, don't we?

Do you need a lesson on how representative democracy is supposed to work? I think you'll find that "collecting numbers" is a fundamental part of it.

If you’re in a creative field and you don’t lift up the work of your peers, you can’t expect people to care about your stuff
