It’s ‘LGBT activism in Ireland, 1973-2023’ workshop day … delighted to host this event (or rather, as the great Tonie Walsh says, tribal gathering) in @ucddublin.bsky.social It is so vital to gather, share and record our histories … esp in the context of the current global backlash. #queerhistories

This is my friend Christiane! We edit our writing together and I'm very proud to have helped with The Fivers – it's a fantastic manuscript set in a climate-ravaged world. Christiane is new here, so if you're interested in climate fiction, dystopian stories, or YA, be sure to give her a follow! 🌈

Dragged myself out for a walk in Delamere Forest this morning before the hordes of school trips arrived to ruin the peace. The view from Old Pale towards Manchester was amazing. Also it was a joy to bump into a couple of former work colleagues that I’d not seen for way over 18 months 🎉

“Borealis” at the Albert Dock Liverpool. Yes, it’s just coloured lights projected onto a mist/smoke filled sky but the effect is quite magical and me being me loved the new age/ambient soundtrack.

:::: sigh ::::: that point where rather than having a leisurely coffee you’ve dashed to the train station only to realise that you’ve misread the timetable and missed the train home by 5 minutes leaving you with a 55 minute wait 🤣

I’m avoiding using Amazon by catching the train and heading to Knutsford to pick up a couple of books from the local branch of Waterstones which is effectively my “local” bookshop. Sadly, not an independent but you can’t have everything!

Remember when pop music was unashamedly fun and naff (but in a good way)? I’m overjoyed to read that these guys are releasing a new album at some point this year! #swedish #sverige #sha-boom youtu.be/DzPgc6h41oY?...

It's a national holiday! Celebrate with this clip of Endora illustrating why Bewitched is a homosexual television program for homosexuals.

I think the only appropriate thing to put on my first post is “Hello world”
