Luxury! This is the face of a cat who thought 03:45 was a good time to play.

Here's mine from the day of Trump's inauguration - ironically the post that had the most likes and reposts ever 😆

I've kept my account, but only to check whether posts screenshotted here are genuine. I certainly don't miss it, though there are a few people I wish would come to Bluesky 🤷‍♀️

It is so refreshing to have an MP whose views reflect my own and who's not afraid to speak out. Well said, @libdems.org.uk Anna Sabine 👏

You've been kidnapped. The characters from the last TV show you watched are trying to rescue you.
Who's coming to save you?

Love him to bits, but given his performance on Celebrity Traitors, I don't fancy my chancesm

They do mention her age, and use her chosen name and she/her at the start of the article. But it may well have been edited again. The "biological man" bit is still very much there.
November 25, 2025 at 2:45 PM
I dunno if it's been updated again, but her age is mentioned now:

Phoenix *really* doesn't like Selkie being in the house on the cat tree. You need to watch till the end 😆

Wishing everyone a very happy #DrWhoDay

Thank you 🥰 Though I love tuxedo cats too - this is our much-missed monkey, Topsy.

Ninja level of cat servitude unlocked: I managed to extricate myself without disturbing Phoenix and Selkie 🥳 They really are the sweetest 🩶

I really need to go to bed, but how can I disturb this rare moment of harmony? 🥺

Brrrrr. It's supposed to go down to -3° overnight here, and it doesn't feel much warmer waiting at the bus stop. Not a bad sunset, mind you, even with less than optimal scenery and phone camera.

This tree along Southgate in Bath is full of (I think) wagtails. Dodgy eyes and phone pics don't do it justice.

I love Bath at this time of year. The Christmas market will be starting soon, so it's the calm before the storm, but even then I love the buzz. Some rubbish phone photos:

Poor Selkie was happily snoozing in her tree house until along came Phoenix ... They love each other really 😆

What a glorious, if cold, autumn afternoon! Spent lunchtime in the woods, kicking up leaves like a 5 year-old. I love the light on the remaining leaves, and this pyracantha (?) I passed positively glowed in the sunlight ❤️

"Oh my god - I'm 53!" 😆
I love Claudia.

Shades of our much-missed Janey. What a brilliant man.

Selkie and the birb: a story in 4 pictures.
Finally catching up on Hamza's Hidden Isles, and this is the first time either of the cats has shown any interest in TV. Selkie spent a while looking behind the TV when the bearded tit flew away 🥹

This is disgusting. It means people granted asylum will constantly be living with uncertainty, never feeling able to rebuild their lives. On a practical level, it also surely means more work and money, if claims are constantly being reassessed. A repugnant idea.

My dance of the night! Genuinely jaw-dropping stuff from La Voix and Aljaž, packed with ballroom and showbiz content, full of character and simply life-affirming. A few mistakes, but who cares?

Watching Alex and Jojo with a ridiculously soppy smile on my face. Beautiful lines, impeccable footwork and properly romantic. Loved it.

Hi Yara. A great way of expressing the shaking off of a difficult day.

A rather lazy day for me - it's been pouring with rain much of the day, so we've been snuggling with the cats. That's Phoenix on the cat tree and Selkie snuggling with my daughter x
