Why is every red shoe I want to buy suddenly a slingback. I hate slingbacks. If I wanted to wear something that forced me to obsessively pumice my heels I'd buy a fucking sandal, wouldn't I?

Dreamt that McDonalds introduced the character 'Smooth Ronald', which was Ronald McDonald only perfectly smooth and hairless. It was Smooth Ronald's job to stand in the freezer sections(?) installed in restaurants and...be smooth? Awoke to the thought 'They should not use this in their marketing.'

Confession: I can't tell Julies Bindel and Burchill apart, but it hardly matters because it's not like this is a Naomi Wolf/Naomi Klein situation.

JK Rowling has a new friend named Mary. She seems very normal.

You could waste your time reading that New Yorker article, or you could listen to the Behind the Bastards episode about Yarvin that rightfully mocks him mercilessly for being an edgelord idiot that doesn’t understand history.

Finished this yesterday. Confirms my belief that the nicer the horror writer, the more fucked up the inside of their heads. Like Clive Barker in the suburbs, with visuals that will haunt you. And don't even get me started on the sounds...

Enough of this racist fiction. Enough. Not a single non-white person in England is in a job in the NHS *because* they are non-white. Not a single one. And as for the idea that England's criminal justice system goes easy on non-white people because they are non-white. Well. Just think about that.

Anyone saying ‘DEI’ here in the UK is telling you very directly where their hate is imported from.

Times like these, I am reminded of a line from Edmund Burke: I hope they get every disease and die shitting.

The way they're covering this is absolutely fucked. It's giving judge-getting-dewy-eyed-over-Ted-Bundy.

Ugh. Word updated itself and I had my first encounter with Copilot, hovering next to my text like a dystopian Clippy. No, I would not like your environmentally ruinous help with doing something I've been doing my whole life. And didn't I uninstall you? Fuck off forever.

This happens every strawberry season. I am not responsible for it, and it's a natural instinct. If a stag shed its velvet in front of you would you call it a menace and accuse it of sabotaging your diet? Of course you wouldn't. Go with the flow, and enjoy the ripe strawberries.

I know it doesn't stop them from being exhausting but please know the reason there's a relentless stream of thinkpieces from centrists or right-leaning dems going DITCH THE TRANSES is because the public opinion as a whole is "just leave them alone, jesus" and they fucking hate that

Surprised that White House press secretary's prominently displayed crucifix doesn't sizzle against her skin. What a rotten-souled little liar.
