Finishing off the last of my decluttering this evening, serenaded by Scottish folk musicians singing in my earphones: Paddie Bell, Iain Mackintosh and Hamish Imlach. (Paddie and Iain both had Norn Ireland blood in them too, yeowww.)

We’re not supposed to be sympathise with him, are we? He’s manipulative and a complete dick (and an unreliable narrator), and there’re no actual nice characters in the whole show, except maybe Karen, but she watches shit TV so we’ll judge her too.https://twitter.com/vice/status/1081269040734183425 …

The kid is back with me this weekend. I am three quarters of the way through tidying her room. Yeah, she should do it herself. But if I do it I get to play with the Playmobil.

Hello, I’m a female academic in a movie. I wear glasses which I push up the bridge of my nose while blinking a lot, and am endearingly klutzy. My desk is stacked high with old, dusty books.https://twitter.com/_roryturnbull/status/1080183740637241344 …

Research I did for
@sexliesballots showed substantially fewer than half of Conservative supporters fantasised about BDSM and figure was not significantly different to supporters of other parties.

Me: “Day 3 of the year. I have eaten super healthily for three days, I’m on the third day of a yoga challenge, I have been for a run, and I have had no alcohol.” Also me: “why am I not thin and fit already?” Also, also me: “this is never going to work. I’m opening the wine.”

Ahhhh, the difference a bit of tape makes. The physio taped up my dodgy impinged shoulder and I feel cured. Unfortunately, when this comes off in a couple of days, I can’t actually re-tape it up myself, one-armed...

Taking the rest of this week off work so I can sort out my life, as is optimistically customary in early January every year. Normal chaos will resume shortly.

Her name was Ela Friedman Aytes. She was 3 years old. Her mother did everything she could to save her daughter in a system that gave their abuser power. Write about that. She is loved and she is missed. Write about that. She is not some horror story to sell your news,

Shame on you,
@TB_Times. Shame on you. A violent and murderous act of horrific domestic violence and you sensationalise it in an article that is both opportunistic and unethical.

On an average day in the UK: 3,700 are forced to visit a food bank. 5,400 suffer domestic violence. 4,750 sleep rough on the streets. 4 migrants arrive in boats across the Channel. Guess which one the government is calling a “crisis”?
