As has become customary for me, and I make no apology for it, every December, I post a photo of a different robin a day. Like it or lump it.
The beautiful black robin…little goth of the robin world.

Girding myself for my next convo with the father, who loves nothing more than explaining the weather to me. He’s going to have a field day with this one. Who says the ‘tism doesn’t run in the family? 😂❄️🌨️
Summer has arrived in Australia with a bang, with fire and searing heat in the west, while a sprinkling of snow accompanied record cold temperatures in the south-east of the country.
Heat and fires in the west, while record cold delivers snow in the east

It was six years ago today that a man in Wuhan, China began feeling ill.
He would become the first known COVID case.
Covid is still with us. It’s still killing and disabling.
Clean the air. Wear a mask. Get your boosters.
Public health is a social justice issue.

Lots of excellent makers and artists here in the replies ♥️
It's a dark time for artists. Many are struggling!
It's easy to buy gifts online. When you buy from *artists*, you're supporting working people, instead of making rich jerks richer.
This fall, send your present $$ to an artist's shop!
Artists! Drop your shop links!

I remember thinking that a couple whose surname was Fairchild should be collectively known as the Fairchildren.
When Michael Foot and his wife were alive, I remember a friend of theirs wondering whether it was correct to say that he was inviting the Feet around for dinner.

I recently got sent a crafting kit by Funacrylic, including several cute little wooden trees and a set of acrylic markers.
Here is the second tree I painted.✨️ (you can see the first one in the background^^)

earnest thought alert:
the internet, and especially social media - in all its forms, and in all ‘bubbles’ - feels increasingly incompatible with my personal values and the ways I want to live my life
and yet, it’s where my friends and communities are

The importance of the Mayor’s message aside for a moment, how adorable are these wee boys! 😍
My brothers and I relied on free school meals growing up.
Proud that City Hall has now funded 100 million of them for London’s state primary school children ♥️

This is nothing more than engagement bait. Another reason to get off twitter, the more people respond to it (there) the more he’ll earn from it.

Standing in my old flat for the last time. The woman coming to do the final inspection will be here in 15 mins. I can see my landlord standing outside (he’s not meant to be here for the handover, hmm) in the rain. Prob waiting for me to leave. I’m so so sad. This place has served me well.
