Something I love about social media is you can banter with people whom you’ve never met like you are old friends and form a bond in seconds. The disembodied affection I feel for various mutuals us weird and yet very meaningful.

David and I have clashed bitterly in the past, because we both care about what we're doing. On this issue, however, he's absolutely in the right. Universities, and social science, depend on our ability to disagree with each other.

Someone has accused me of seeing all LGBTQ+ people as predators and, this being bollocks aside, all I can think about is Gareth Roberts's brilliant quip in his book 'Gay Shame' that describing an individual as a "LGBTQ+ person" is like calling a chair a chair-table-cow-horse-window 😂

I have made no progress in shifting Christmas weight. If anything, I’ve gotten fatter in January. On the plus side, at least my boobs look spectacular. Very much a glass half-full person, me ❤️

After 3 difficult weeks, I am 10% into sorting my mess of a flat. 10% is legions better than 0%.
