I chaired an internal event yesterday. Very scary. Felt exhausted after but I feel it went well and I realised it was important to deliver this for LGBT history month.

a lot of this week i have had to go to some evening event, do something activism adjacent or i just didn't have capacity for 3 hours running. today i did 4 hours but more importantly i hit a heart rate target that fitbit AI says is sufficient to keep my activity levels maintained in spite of week

Had some activism stuff and work finished late today. I wanted to do it right which meant doing it slow. It meant I only had 90 mins for running. I managed 300 points and just under 5000kcal. I usually have those numbers as my goal for 3 hours. How I did it in half the time a mystery. But I'm glad

My local train station now has a lift which makes access easier for me. I find stairs difficult. Esp when I carry the bike and pannier

And we. are. live :D www.kickstarter.com/projects/fyr... #OFMD #OFMC #OFMCTWC #theweecon

I saw (doomscrolling) someone who was an Indian heritage Freddy Mercury impersonator and the comments had these anti Indian racist comments. Benchods, do you even know who Freddy Mercury was?

Today I wasn't sure I could make the targets but I did 3 hours, 3400kcal, 430+ heart points. That is excess of my original goals. I still feel it's not enough and I didn't do enough and that I could have done better. I was at a peak in sept 2024 and I had a slow dip to Dec 24. Am I getting back?

Taika Waititi directed that Seal ad. It shows.

Do a Zardoz reboot already you cowards

Lately I've been in a number of conversations and it's happened so many times I can disclose it in general terms without it being specific to anyone: a lot of people who have had a product launch, be it a podcast, TV format, book etc have found there's little interest in covering or reviewing it...

A very Queer Happy Birthday today to the glorious Alan Cumming. I suspect everyone knows him and hopefully loves him, his list of films, TV shows and awards is huge, and he's currently enjoying being the host of The Traitors US.

We had 55,000 people at Trans Pride London last year. It was the largest Trans Pride match in history. We’ve all seen what’s happening in the US. We all know it could easily happen in the UK. This year let’s make it 100,000 and send Trump, Starmer and Streeting a message they can’t ignore 🏳️‍⚧️

NEW: An internal email obtained by WIRED from a threat intelligence team monitoring US Treasury systems advised labeling DOGE operatives an "insider threat," adding that it recommended suspending their access "immediately." | www.wired.com/story/treasu...

Exhausted after Saturday, Saturday I was exhausted after Friday. Friday I was exhausted after Thursday, Thursday I was exhausted after Wednesday...some noteworthy and busy and very serious things. Plus one fun thing. Sunday I managed to do 3 hours running to justify it all.

Hey, still sick over here! But have a pretty Ed as I disappear back into the void #OFMDfanart #OFMD

I am often in my room when I can see the sun set. There's a moment of fleeting beauty so special that it is gone as soon as it arrives. I wish I could be in it for as long as possible but I know it fades and I know i just must hold on to as much of it as I can. It's my feminine self passing away

Look, I really hate that day that's coming up, but I really love pirates and I really love all of you and last year I was busy trying to romance streaming services and this year I think I'll try and romance you gorgeous pirates instead. #OFMDfanart #OFMD

Most zero-hours workers ‘with same employer for more than a year’

I saw the band H.E.A.T. last night and now I'm oiled up for some reason

I saw a post from the band eternal tears of sorrow. A couple of years ago they announced that they tried to make some new tracks but the demos or whatever they felt didn't fit the mood of the band and will never release it. They announced, not to my surprise that there will be no further music

Today I had a reading group and it was upsetting. Speaking makes me feel very tired and disoriented. I am able to speak but it takes more out of me cognitively than most of you. Similarly walking isn't the same for me as it might be for a lot of you. I am glad of the targets reached today

Not on here much. Very tired lately. Recent current affairs moving very quickly

Dysphoria bad today :(

A lot of silence from insiders in political parties, membership caucuses, trade unions and ERGs on recent issues affecting the trans community. The conversations I have had can be summed up in three words: "They've abandoned us"

'I am asking for help'. This is something I repeat when I'm at the daytime hours. I need to use those exact words because when I don't get help and I say how I can't complete tasks or group work, I say 'do you remember the time when I said: 'I am asking for help''.
