For those of you who are aware of the TillyLovesBooks situation, I’ve written an open letter to Waterstones in support of her from authors. If anyone would like to sign it, please let me know by tomorrow morning.

Went on a coffee date at the weekend which seemed to go well, and texted him a bit after... 24 later he went cold and cancelled the dinner date we planned. On reflection I think it's likely still too early for me to start dating again, but also dating cisgender people is stressful.

I think there's a unique cut scene if you romance all the men at the same time

Oh yeah, I've seen stills. I kind of want to see it. And possibly will, but I've built it up in my head so need to be in the right headspace to watch it.

Yeah, I think most of the countries where that was true it was mostly for sexism reasons. "Women don't enjoy sex, so why would they sleep with each other?"

It's this. "Scary" I'm fine with. Midsommar has a reputation as more disturbing than scary, which is why I haven't watched it.

That'll be me at the weekend... at a tournament.

Counselling would have just meant I transitioned sooner.

I can do that. I don't want to most days though.

I'm trying to be optimistic and that a lot of it was because of the election, and it'll now die down again a bit.

A seed I got from a lemon I bought in tesco no less, about 2 and a half years ago now. Citrus isn't true to type, so although I call it my lemon tree, it is likely a hybrid of some kind.

Same. It'd literally mean I could update my title on HMRCs website, and maybe make a difference to my death certificate... But that's it. It's not worth the hassle for me right now, and I don't really like the idea of being on a government list of transes.

I mean, in terms of vote share they got less than they did in 2017. I think the Tories lost rather than anything labour did.

I have a half marathon there next month. I'm on the lookup for a milkshake themed t-shirt.

"Can we wait a minute for labour to actually take power before we criticize them?" No. We can't. They've shown us who they're going to be. Keeping silent now will just be used to prove they have a mandate to do the shit things they're planning on doing.

Excuse me if I'd like labour to be a left wing party again instead of this Tory lite bullshit they've turned into

Yeah pretty sure this did the rounds when I still used Twitter (which I deleted my account a long time ago now) so although they're shitty and absolutely should be blocked out of every hobby venue, I think this is old.

I have now unlocked the right to continue to moan about how shit labour are by not voting for them (I voted green).

I don't think he's an idiot, so pretty sure it's the first. He's been trying to keep his mouth shut for the optics, but with how things are going he believes he can now be more vocal about his opinions.
