A little stark but somehow I'm still insanely jealous

Please don't associate lovely vaginas with this monstrous creep!

As an A&E patient with scary symptoms from Long Covid (eg body twitching uncontrollably for hours) I was left on a hard chair in a nervy hellscape when what I needed was to lie down, and a doctor to tell me it wasnt life threatening but a nervous system response that could be calmed. But not there.

People are desperate for joy. We know there’s climate horror - and so many other horrors. I hate the AI slop but you can’t blame people for wanting some softness and beauty.

Love ‘pasting’

That’s sad. One of my best friends died with that a few years ago.

Alison Goldie @alisongoldie.bsky.social · 4d

Yes! I did that sitting in one spot in a market recently and got some lovely portraits of people passing in front of me, in bright clothes, or jogging or pausing for a think

Alison Goldie @alisongoldie.bsky.social · 4d

I love that! Such an interesting experiment - if only he hadn’t been a humourless copper. Mind you, these days he’d be in fear of a pasting.

No, I don’t take photos of kids without asking a parent. And I’m not a perv re the bums - I just like lovely shapes and beauty in general! I love looking at interestingly dressed people in the street - and try to grab photos, or ask for photos. I really like your pub characters.

The invisibility of my sex and age can be an advantage…!

Alison Goldie @alisongoldie.bsky.social · 4d

I’ve done that! Sometimes I follow a nice sexy bum down the road just for the view (I’m an old lady, nobody cares!)

Couldn’t agree more (really must break that online Scrabble addiction) 😬

Alison Goldie @alisongoldie.bsky.social · 4d

Too true

Alison Goldie @alisongoldie.bsky.social · 4d

I don’t know what that means but sure, whatever you like!

Alison Goldie @alisongoldie.bsky.social · 4d

Quite

When I was particularly knackered with Long Covid, I would exploit my local bus hub in Hackney (2 mins walk) and sit on the first bus that came as far as I fancied (frail but stationary, flask and snacks in bag) then come back again. An enlightening view of London.

Thanks for the nudge!
