I wish I had a coffee robot that followed me around and offered me flat whites regularly. I'd call him Bob, and in his spare time, we'd go bird watching.

Don't think single people get enough credit for doing life alone. Rent/mortgage is double, household responsibility and life admin is down to one person, you're your own emotional support, holidays are more expensive, you've to trap and transport human sacrifices for the solstice bonfire solo, etc.

Today I introduced my creative writing students to this excellent story by Terry Bisson: www.mit.edu/people/dpoli... Later this week I'll introduce my applied ethics students to it, too. I do love it when my two great loves, fiction and philosophy, collide so wonderfully 🙂

It's week 2 of my philosophical creative writing course with @irishwriterscentre.bsky.social! Today we will be looking at philosophical flash fiction and, of course, getting plenty of writing and tea drunk during our session this evening! I'm very excited.

I made an herbal tea to drink in bed while I read last night. Forgot about my tea. Fell asleep. I woke up to a tea that had been brewed for at least 8 hours.
