Trying to write, got an unpublished novel, The Errand Boy all ready to go. Got some poetry under my belt, gone sober in Jan 2023. Ran a few marathons. Live in a lovely part of Yorkshire. No fascists, billionaires, s*x bots, A.I.s, DMs or politics.

I came to Bluesky because X (not twitter) had degenerated into a right-wing / fascist hell.
From 20 Jan 2025 there will be no American politics on my timeline. I gave it 8 years, it gave me anxiety and disappointment. You let in the clown, he brought the circus.
Follow / unfollow, up to you.
Going for a run......it's freezing 🥶

This is quite a good podcast, good voice, and just a reading of a story and "facts" surrounding it. Usually good to listen to late at night. The Conspirators - The girl who was taken by Bigfoot.

Just watched a 1942 black and white RKO Pictures film.....Cat People, on a Friday night in December. And it's really good. #Filmsky

Fascinating podcast, The Great American Novel on JD Salinger's The Catcher In The Rye
Holden Caulfield....the proto incel! It may be a great book but it's not one to inspire greatness. ( That bit is me saying that). Worth a listen.

Well, I wasn't expecting that today! Northern 323239 in full Bee Network vinyls stood on platform 12 at Manchester Piccadilly about fifteen minutes ago.

Went to dentist today....1st time in 3 years.
It's ironic in UK that NHS brings us into the world, generally keep us in 1 piece....but doesn't give a fck if all our teeth fall out.
Anyway....looks like I'll have to sell a kidney, maybe an arm or leg but I should be able to keep chewing my food🙄

There is a strange orange tint to the clouds that doesn't really come out in the picture.

This is a fascinating podcast I've stumbled into, Great American Novel.
This episode was Kerouac and On The Road.
