hard to think of anything more offensive that a US VP could have said. i really hope americans realise, and care about, what a bad idea it is to treat your closest and most reliable allies like this. we are owed an apology.

if i book a double room why would you assign me a twin room and hope i won’t complain? because you’d better believe i will march back down to reception and force you to change my room, and then complain about you wasting my time

forever cursed by fleetingly meeting guys i feel such a connection with but them always living far away, or one of us never being in the right headspace to make anything happen 💔

opened up gr*ndr for the first time since being home and it refreshed from all the hot colombian guys in their biggest gaybourhood to the guys around where i live…really felt like going from eating at a michelin star restaurant to a grim chippy

Air France is so obnoxiously French (in the best way) - we’ve already had two videos featuring the Eiffel Tower be played at us, and one telling us how elegant they are, and we’ve not even left the gate yet

(in colombia) just thoroughly bamboozled a straight guy who started talking to me at a bar by saying that i don’t follow football or any other sport, and i’m not religious. was like i’d told him i have three heads

i have never banged my head as much as i have in colombia. in the past few days I’ve hit my head on several doorways that are too small; bars on the metro to hold on to; signs dangling from ceilings in shops. this country was not meant for tall people 😅

every time i’m stuck on a tram crawling through the city centre at 5mph during rush hour, or stopped because a car has blocked its way, i curse the fact that manchester doesn’t have a tube. why did politicians from 1950-2015 always have such low ambition for this city and its huge potential?

i’m on the 0735 train from Manchester to London. this train should be packed full of people working between both cities. instead, it’s almost empty because our trains are priced so ludicrously that even a split ticket costs £125. it’s outrageous and it’s holding the country back

last night this lovely sweet argentinian guy started chatting with me on grindr… we got coffee today and spent an hour chatting (in spanish), then after we left he texted saying he wished we’d had longer. so after the gym we met up again for dinner before he flew back to ireland. such a cute day
