My late dad got me into the fantastic #TerryPratchett so for #worldbookday I decided to be Tiffany Aching from a hat full of sky 🩵 . . #worldbookday25 #tiffanyaching #discworld

We are experiencing an assault on science unparalleled by anything I’ve seen in my life. It’s not one issue or another anymore, the entire institution is under attack by the most powerful individuals in the country. This Friday, where will you be? standupforscience2025.org

Be aware (boom boom), that month is fast approaching! #Autism

Beautiful #snowdrop found in the woods today

So close! . #robin #birdspotting

Finished my first booknook. So many little details, every book has been cut out and folded by me, all the furniture stuck together. Really enjoyed doing it . #booknook #themagiclibrary #minatures

Bothered this local old stone for #standingstonesunday "A large fragment of an Anglo #Saxon cross, probably 10th cent., ornamented with interlaced #knotwork but much worn. (1) Classified as #AngloDanish and considered to be unique in #Derbyshire being made of limestone."

#lichen on a stone, thinking #crustose species?

We need urgent realignment with Europe, watertight counter disinformation laws, social media regulation, laws against foreign interference/foreign funding, the same re. the press plus reform, an overhaul of Ofcom and a PM that will firmly tell our insane hillbilly cousin, America, to go fuck itself.

Amazing tree in today's fog 😍 . #tree #folkhorror #fog #scarytree

Also I got a #nanoblock pyramid and sphinx to build 😁 will go next to my Stonehenge model

Autistic family and we've had a very quiet day. Presents unwrapped in your own time, no visits or visitors, food we all like and Wallace & Gromit to watch!! Perfect Christmas for us . #actuallyautistic #nopressure #christmasday

Christmas eve walk, not a soul to be seen 💚

The Prime Minister of Greenland, in response to Trump's wish to control Greenland, said that 'we are not for sale.'

Just so beautiful 😍 #lichen

Lots of twinkling lights this evening, I do love the tradition of putting lights up at Christmas ✨ . . #christmaslights #lights #sparkly

Gorgeous gooey find this afternoon 💚 . . #Exidianigricans #witchesbutter #warlocksbutter #fungi

Every single time that a famous person tries to blame their sexual harassment/sexual violence on autism, every single autistic person who has experience sexual harassment or sexual violence from within the autistic community screams a little bit louder into the void.

I just find the shapes and colours so visually pleasing . #countryfile #lichen

#standingstonesunday the amazing #stonehenge 🩵 finally got to see Stonehenge in August and despite the crowds and price, it felt amazing ✨

Feel stressed over #Christmas, 2 #autistic teens to buy for and they don't want anything. Part of me feels happy that they have everything they need but then I panic as they can't have nothing on Christmas day 😞

If only I was asleep 😭 been awake since 2am 🤷🏻‍♂️ sat watching a random train journey documentary on TV and dreading today because I'm going to feel tired and thrown off by not sleeping 😕 4 weeks of being poorly and I'm still not right. . . #whoneedssleepanyway #insomia #actuallyautistic #audhd

My evening relaxation is 2 sleeping terriers, starwars a new hope on TV and a glass of cider 👌🏻✨ . #terriers #starwars #letsleepingdogslie

Lichen love 💚 cladonia but not sure which one, think I'll be treating myself to a identification book if anyone can recommend one? . #lichen #cladonia #countryside

Dead man's fingers, jelly ears, jelly spot and turkey tail. Back in my beloved woodland after the rainfall watching the trees glisten and leaves drip 💚🩵 . #fungi #mushrooms🍄 #mycology #turkeytail #deadmansfingers #jellyears #woodland #actuallyautistic #audhd

I'm officially Autistic!! Or rather I'm Audhd 😊 NHS assessment after nearly 3 years of waiting and it was a wonderful affirming experience, I feel so happy and complete. Think I'll spend the rest of the day resting and researching! . #audhd #latediagnosedautistic #autisticwomen #actuallyautistic

Autism assessment day, appointment should start in 9 minutes 🫠 feeling anxious about the whole thing and the outcome. #autistic #autismassesment #feelinganxious

Currently watching #enysmen it's certainly very atmospheric. . #folkhorror

Solidarity with every other dog owner in the UK who's trying to convince their dog to go outside to toilet during #stormbert

May I propose an alternative framing, that is affirming rather than dismissive: Raise your hand if you support trans people’s right to use the bathroom of their identity

Well that was an experience 😱 as a woman in my mid 40s it really shone a light on the obsession, especially with women, on being youthful and how youth is worshipped. Having lost a close friend to cancer I'm just grateful I've got the opportunity to grow old. #thesubstance #elisabethsparkle #aging

Interesting find the other day . #fungi #mycelium
