Doing some writing (about the Flintstones, OBVIOUSLY).

An old school friend of mine thought it would be ironic and whimsical to hire a bouncy castle large and sturdy enough for us as undergraduates for her 21st birthday party. The “adult bouncy castle” she hired certainly was large enough, I suppose. It also required squeezing through giant inflatable labial lips to get inside. She at least didn’t need to keep telling people how to get to her house – the fifteen-foot-tall jet-black gas-engorged phallus extending proudly skywards from the centre of the castle made for an extremely handy locator.

Just starting up May, and what in the goddamn hell is this JK fucking Rowling-ass haunted doll doing on my TV screen? Why is it not IMMEDIATELY on fire?

The world's most transphobic doll stares lifelessly out of a box, judging its new owner for wearing an eye patch, which is UNLADYLIKE.

Tonight's Alkaline Trio gig was unfortunately cancelled, so we're engaging in the closest available alternative: Eldritch Horror. All female team too, because why not?

Think I'm going to get an entire bonus post out of how much this one image annoys me.

A screenshot from "Memento Mori" (SNW) in which we learn the Gorn language is a variation on Morse code, that somehow has exactly the same letters as the Roman alphabet, and which spells its words identically to English.

A day in Nottingham, lads.

An exhibit from Nottingham's Museum of Curiosities, labelled (I think convincingly?) a "Mummified Victorian Ladies Front Bottom".

This is good news, and it matters beyond the ponds themselves. It's a reminder that, as others have said, the horrifying rollback of trans rights in the UK over the last year and change has happened wholly without a democratic mandate. When the people get a say, they demand inclusion.

Article header reading "Hampstead Heath ponds to remain trans-inclusive after public back existing rules." It goes on to say "Policy agreement means trans people will continue to have access to Kenwood Ladies' and Highgate Men's ponds in north-west London". Then there's a picture of someone diving into water, below which it says "A public consultation found 86% of the 38,000 respondents favoured retaining the ponds' existing trans-inclusive arrangements.

These lads, without question. Almost the earliest writing I ever did, at like 12 years old, was fanfic for these rubbery wee horrors. (Picture from Review All Monsters)

One half of the first collection of Monster In My Pocket. Nostalgia level: genuinely painful.

On Repentance And Repair, by Rabbi Danya Ruttenberg. An absolutely amazing book on the ways in which harm needs to be identified, addressed, and atoned for, and how society's focus on "forgiveness" isn't just irrelevant to that work, it actually makes that work harder.
