If you’re not responsible enough to set up mail forwarding when you move out (of your London flat), are you really responsible enough to vote?

I’m the kind of superstitious where I throw spilled salt over my shoulder and salute when I see a single magpie, but don’t think twice about taking a flight on Friday 13th if it’s convenient for me.

Larry Connor may not see your mean tweets, but your billionaire friends who are determined to implode in a $20M submarine death mission will. Hashtag be kind

It came upon a midnight clear
That glorious song of old
There were angels dining at the Ritz
And a nightingale sang in Berkeley Square

Worked myself into a lather believing a photo of me at a (professional, women-centred) event had been photoshopped into high heels instead of flats. In fact, the photo cut off my feet and #GenerativeAI had guessed outside its borders. Just another example of its weird biases.

I am horrified by this ongoing incarceration for all the humanitarian reasons one might expect, but also because lovely Johan was my next-door neighbour in Oxford a decade ago. Astonishingly poor news coverage here, eg. Telegraph "EU Poster boy" headline. #FreeJohanFloderus

‘Wolverine Woman’ by @KatieArnstein tells “one woman’s story” of a harrowing walk home at night in a way which is timely, necessary, wry and articulate. Required watching: www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/epis...

Normal people: do you remember the point at which you stopped congratulating yourself for simply acting normal and not weird? What prompted it for you? Is it coming soon for me?

[Health condition] awareness months. Generally a good thing, probably, but recently being overwhelmed by information about a condition I have caused me to spiral with anxiety. It probably happens to others, all the time. Same for social justice issues. Sensitivity needed.

Breathing a huge sigh of relief to be on here instead of Twitter/X.
