Trying an episode of the Asterix cartoon. I assume it's a newish version.

Happy Pride Month folks! πŸŒˆπŸ™ŒπŸΌ If you're free this Sunday 08 June between 15.30–16.15 and want to listen to me natter on about queer natural history then come find me at Imperial University πŸ³οΈβ€πŸŒˆπŸŒ³πŸ¦‹πŸ πŸ§πŸ³οΈβ€βš§οΈ #Pride www.greatexhibitionroadfestival.co.uk/event/queer-...

Monday again. It's like being in a time loop! πŸ˜‹

It's really tricky to know what to watch after a film like that!

Well that was a very weird film. More explicit visually than I was expecting, but then it was trying to be shocking. Story was very interesting & given the way the world is, I'm not sure that the behaviour of the very rich is out of the realms of possibility, even if we don't have the science.

The main characters in this film have too much money & not enough empathy.

This film is kinda like a weird version of Frankenstein. Creepy & messed up version.

😲 Well that was a bit more explicit than I was expecting! 😳

Weighing up watching a horror film.

Caught up with Doctor Who. No spoilers. Enjoyed it. Sad bits though.

"Junior doctors condemn gender verdict as β€˜scientifically illiterate’" Helen Joyce, of Sex Matters: β€œIt’s terrifying that a group of young doctors, all of whom have been through several years of advanced education and training in biology, have been indoctrinated by trans activism to such an extent"

Urgh - even hotter today! πŸ₯΅

Today has been too warm for me. Having yet another cold drink. πŸ₯΅

Teeny spoiler for sci-fi soap theme, but brilliant all the same. πŸ˜†πŸ˜† Eps 1-4 brilliant!

Cooking sweet potato fries to distract from the week gap before more Murderbot!

Humph - don't want to wait another whole week for the next episode of Murderbot! 😠 Putting that ep on again.

Trying to decide if my desire for sweet potato fries is greater than my desire not to make my flat hotter by cooking them! Going to watch new Murderbot while I decide.

Hello! I'll be speaking about Roman Britain at Southwark Cathedral on July 19th. It's a fun talk aimed at kids & families, but adults might learn stuff too! And there are other fab historians on after me, so come for the day! cathedral.southwark.anglican.org/visiting/sou...

For anyone unfamiliar with Big Mouth - a little taster. πŸ˜‚ They do love a musical number!

I wonder how long it'll be before shows like Big Mouth are labelled as 'porn' or whatever because they talk about sex & LGBTQ+ relationships. *sigh* 😠

Need to work out must visits list for expo. Who has cool new small press RPGs I need to look at?

I know it's a weird & crude show, but I like Big Mouth. It's unapologetic about showing messy relationships can be & both how wonderful & terrible people can be. All the characters are very different to each other, with broad spectrum of interests too. Also-female hormone monsters are brilliant! 🀣🀣

Recklessly having caffeine after almost falling asleep on way home, so I can be awake to eat dinner. Watching some old Big Mouth eps to remember what had happened just before new series.

Made more progress than I thought I would tonight given delays to starting & weird worry about some of the cross stitches.

There's someone pretending to be me --if you could report and block, that would be great.

I have decided my cross stitches tonight aren't too fat! πŸ€”

Also beautiful drag queens on my tv that can probably slide their slim calves into boots I can only dream of! πŸ˜•

Trying to decide if the measly number of stitches I've added to my lighthouse sampler look fatter than the others! 🀨

*sigh* And I thought the trains were a mess this morning! πŸ˜‘

Completed! #crossstitch

Got this far with cross stitch last night. Lighthouse is done except for some plants at the base. Not bad progress over 2 evenings.
