I was trawling my archives the other day (because occasionally I check my stats for website views, and invariably someone has found a random article in the archives to read and I’ve no memory of what it is, so I click through to remind myself) and found the post below. I think, in this day […]

The sitch: New GP. Went in to ask for a script thingy (words are hard) for my annual thyroid blood test, because I realised I’d forgotten to do that in January. My usual GP is the kind who a) costs money and b) is booked out 6-8 weeks in advance, so I decided to use

Found this on a stumble through the archives, and it felt timely to repost. Go on. Be rebellious. You know you want to 😉 Modern Western consumer culture particularly sets us up to be in competition with each other – as men, as women, as non-binaries, as teens, as adults, in the workplace, in comparing

I don’t know about you, but I’m fairly well drowning in Weltschmerz this week (of the unironic kind). Humanity really just does seem to suck, constantly finding new ways to disappoint where values like empathy, compassion and mercy are concerned. Honestly, becoming a hermit is a super appealing (and super privileged) option right now. So,

Fight your fears! Battle your demons! Stand against the darkness that envelops you! Yeah, yeah, we get it. To have fears is to be weak, to have anxious fears (i.e. unfounded, melodramatic, or unrealistic fears) is even weaker, and if you don’t stand up right this instant with a fear-tuned flamethrower and FIGHT THE LIFE

Some inspo for your weekend today. This one tears me up every time. And you know what’s even more glorious? I actually know that I have friends who would – and have – rush to my rescue like this, to support me through dark times. If you’re one of those friends, THANK YOU. I love
