Old bird. Kindness matters. Yes, I care and work to try and make the world a better place irl but this is where I come to talk nonsense about things that make me happy. But also: Free Gaza. Trans Rights are Human Rights

SPOILERS AHOY, if you have seen the Fate of Ophelia video yet….

Ok so, 🧵 because I’ve been obsessed with the Pre-Raphaelite Brotherhood since the last 80s (1980s not 1880s), and I’m flappy hand excited again. Some of this you’ll know, but maybe some you don’t. So why am I showing the 2nd tableau?

A tableau from the Fate of Ophelia video. Taylor Swift in white medieval-style gown with huge bell sleeves, poses beside a table of her own baked sourdough bread, behind her is landscape that looks out of place, like a French or Flemish landscape, her hand is extended like a falconer, and a red dove lands on it

Where’s Barney? Why hasn’t he noticed Harry’s missing #EastEnders

…going to get worse with AI. But you’re not alone, in the UK there’s this hotline.

…know they are not alone and there is help. I know I will never be able to track down all the places my images, mostly photoshopped into graphic acts, were shared across forums and websites, and all my personal IDs when my ex “sold” me to other men, and was grooming me to be raped, and it’s only..

Please tell me that when #EastEnders aired tonight they had a “if you’ve been affected by these issues” and number to call at the end about Avani and the putting on porn sites of non-consensual intimate images - it is absolutely traumatizing. I still am dealing with PTSD from this. People need to…

I hope it’s going to pick up but I’m not enjoying Celebrity Traitors half as much as normal series, so much ham, taking everything so seriously. They might actually be like that, but it feels they’ve been told to act like everything is such high stakes instead of a bit of fun for charity

I tell you, she might have 2 weeks immunity but she’s going to get herself thrown out before they can eventually vote her out, she wants to start fights

There’s so much going on in my life and out there right now I’ve actually lost track of what the fuck is happening. I feel like the guy in the Maxell tape ad (and if that doesn’t date me, nothing will)

I wouldn’t think it would hurt to try and book a telehealth or online appointment with a doctor to see what they think because the worry that it might be something similar to your history will be causing greater stress tummy cramps

Agatha Cakalogika @acakalogika.bsky.social · 1d

Thank you. I know, but my brain is a pain in the neck sometimes

Agatha Cakalogika @acakalogika.bsky.social · 2d

It’s stupid but that last couple of months I’ve been worrying about it disappearing altogether and I put more pressure on myself getting the shopping list “right” like it’s some sort of exam I need to pass and will be judged on

Usually I try and get some fresh fruit and veg, but I think it’s got to be non-perishables all the way this month.

Trying to make my shopping list to make my SNAP money last even further than I usually make it last in case this is my last payment for some time (or ever if some at top want) and I’m hearing some stores have started refusing payments by SNAP EBT because they’re not sure the govt will refund them

Shall we put bets on now whether Caroline leaves the Big Brother house a warning for bullying or an inevitable racist comment, (it’s coming, you know it’s coming) even though she has immunity for 2 weeks #BBUK #BigBrother

Agatha Cakalogika @acakalogika.bsky.social · 2d

I’m surprised the Housemates didn’t realise that Big Brother only said “the Housemates nominated this week are…” when normally it’s “the Housemates nominated for eviction this week are…” I suppose it’s adrenaline and easier for us to catch things watching outside #BBUK

Agatha Cakalogika @acakalogika.bsky.social · 2d

Very possibly

Agatha Cakalogika @acakalogika.bsky.social · 2d

I thought that last week. I wouldn’t be able to spot her in a line-up

I want Sam fake evicted. Nancy would be so boring and Sam could have fun stopping Farida and Kelly from beating each other up. Plus then Nancy could be up for real eviction next week and the house could be thrown into confusion at why Sam was “voted out”.
