I know, my friend, that now, especially now, you are frightened and anxious you are angry and distraught but if you feel you must do something and are unsure of what you should do start by putting a mask back on, yes, we must do more to take care of each other but it’s a start.

I think we should all feel proud of the male Lionesses tonight. It's not that long ago that reaching a final was pretty much inconceivable, so it's great to see the men finally catching up with the women.

I think a man kicked the ball in the net. It just got quite noisy here.

A dead trans person or a depressed trans person are apparently both preferable to a happy, fulfilled trans person. Because we can’t have that, can we?

This sums up the attitude to trans healthcare, it's not about "protecting" anyone, it boils down to "this gives me the ick and I want it stopped". In the rush to impose a ban before getting kicked out, they didn't even consider what effects the ban would have on those already under treatment

Dora doesn't care about men kicking balls either.

After their consistently masked daughter spoke out against mask bans an insider noted that her celebrity parents “support her on whatever she chooses to do” and while it is wonderful they support her, it is unfortunate they do not support her enough to wear masks alongside her.

OH is watching men kicking balls again. I am still not interested in men kicking balls.

the moon landing was fake. if the moon HAD landed, i don't think we could've gotten it back up there again.

So, I've spent the morning baking. Nothing interesting has happened in the world, right?

Freshly baked scone with butter (avoiding cream controversy) and some of yesterday's raspberry and limoncello jam. It was very, very tasty.

Jam! (3 jars of blackcurrant and 3 of raspberry and limoncello)

And just a few more raspberries.

Chris does what now?!

I hope everyone is aware of the need to be properly supervised when working in the garden. #Caturday

Blackcurrants! I left it a little late to pick them, but there are still enough to make some jam.

It's too bad this country went insane about masks, seems like they can be useful

Well, the sun may not have been out to play too much yet this year, but we have reached the stage where Friday nights are going to involve pasta with fresh pesto from our homegrown basil for the foreseeable future.

Regardless of what Tony Blair thinks, supporting disabled people is not an unreasonable cost - and listening to disabled people reveals ways to cut that cost without doing harm. Here's what I wrote for North East Bylines. northeastbylines.co.uk/news/politic...

Five ways Labour could cut the cost of disabilitynortheastbylines.co.uk Keir Starmer’s tough talk on welfare has left many disabled people fearful. But disability doesn’t need to cost as much as it does

As someone whose plans for the future went from "I should be able to retire at 65" to "I don't know if my body will hold up that long" within the span of the last two years, I urge all of you to remember this.

Because, again: Disability is the only minority anyone can join at any time, & which everyone will join, if they're lucky enough to live that long. A disease, a quirk of genetics, a bus, a bad fall from a curb. Anything. And the only thing we have that could consistently make this fact survivable…
