People like her who prop up a system with lies and misinformation and propaganda - there aren’t words harsh enough for the kind of person she is

I’m so happy that I was organised this morning and got tickets for this. It’s nice to have things to look forward to!

I’m at an afternoon screening of Sinners and there’s a small crowd here for this time on a Thursday. The chat about this film has been really interesting so I’m looking forward to seeing this for myself.

Oh that’s F-ing savage. I love it.

At a writing workshop this morning a participant shared that an editor in another group had put her work through chatgpt (I use no caps, it deserves none) to edit it for feedback b/c he was busy & she thought it had good points & I was just… I would flip a goddamn table

I’m embarrassed for this guy. Imagine having that much money and that little of a personality. Someone actually telling him to stop talking shite & make himself useful would be doing a service to mankind.

This is why I side eye the “young boys and men are turning to the Tates b/c women think they’re rapists/hate them” spiel. You want women to think well of you, fight against this, fight for everyone who gets attacked to be treated fairly by the system. Use your voice to support & agitate.

I watched Kraven the Hunter on dvd from the library (b/c it cost me nothing) and my question is: why was this made? Much like Morbius which at least tried to insert itself intto the overall Spidey universe with its end credit scene. Who in Sony is making these decisions & why are they being let?

This month 20 years ago I was extremely unwell & pretty much housebound. This month 5 years ago I was very unwell & restricted where I could go & do but most places were closed so it didn’t much matter. Now in this year, I’m on an even keel & have things to look forward to…

I went to this yesterday as part of my “do something enjoyable for myself 2025 campaign” and it was v interesting. He’s a v good speaker & there were some really good Q’s both from the moderator & the audience. Looking forward to reading the book now.

So because Le Zuck is an unlikeable ding dong, he thinks nobody else can make friends. Too much money wraps your brain & removes you from real life.

*reads the thread about the abdicated antipope and his former nun wife. Gets to this point * Why do weirdos persist in dragging us into their shenanigans? Have we not enough going on ourselves?!

Is there a word for when you collect frames you’ve picked & look at them on your face with the correct lenses in them & you think “oh no, I’ve made a mistake!” I think maybe I’m just not used to them…

FYI Mel has yet to steer a person wrong with a book rec & this title is available to preorder on Kobo Ireland AND is available to reserve in the Irish library system.

Tralee abú!

Some time ago the book Gifts of Gold by Rawnie Sabor was recc’d on @smartbitches.bsky.social and it is a solid recommendation! Blake is an angry woman who ends up working alongside Flea of the Sidhe with surprising & sexy results. What I liked is that she’s never judged by the author or Flea…

Are these the same people who tried to sell us on courgette noodles? Because no thank you to that also.

Dramatisation - may not have happened

I would posit that sometimes we deal with real issues all the more because of the things we love. They connect us to what’s around.

You know what? It’s a rotten rainy afternoon, I’m watching this.
