Accidentally went shopping in #Waitrose today. WTF did I pay for those eggs? … I think all women sayeth the same. Yep there be breakfast bangers and mush for us #BrexitLanders

As if I need eggs anyway. Accidental other purchases included a #poinsettia … well it is Xmas (nearly) … already preparing for next years #ChristmasPudding

Makes sure you take the time to tell those you care about how much you love and care for them, tomorrow is not promised.

Barely field, West Sussex.

Very happy to be here and support this new place. Pass it on...

I’m off. For the first time this year I’m properly off for a whole week, Saturday till Monday. It feels fabulous. I’m probably going to be ill, because my body can just give up for a week finally. Obviously I don’t want to be ill, I want to be reading, writing and travelling. #holidays #annualleave #relax #relaxing

I really like the favorite/boost/bookmark distinctions. I also like the fact that here you have to go back to the original post to talk--my brain says lovechild of Twitter and Pillowfort. Also, accountability, woohoo!

So. In my view.

Favorite: HEY YOU this was a COOL THING.

Boost: HEY EVERYONE this was a COOL THING.

Bookmark: HEY ME don't forget about this COOL THING.

Reply: OMG WHAT A COOL THING can we TALK about it?

The folk custom year so far in West Cornwall. Traditions endure and change with each generation down here, some seemingly more precarious than others. Wassailing, The May Horns, The Feast of St.John’s Eve & Crying the Neck are always enjoyable. A few other events I missed but Montol on midwinter will be the one most in Penzance will be looking forward for. There’s many more customs about of which I will one day I will also document. #folklore #cornwall

#niceness vs #kindness:

Niceness is the set of rules us white people established and force on everyone else, allowing us to punish anyone not seen as "nice" (as in, not playing by our shitty rules).

Kindness is giving a damn about other people and acting accordingly; kindness is sometimes speaking out but also sometimes shutting up. Kindness does not force others to submit to a set of arbitrary rules that favor white people.

I don't want a nice #Mastodon, I'd like a kind one.

Yep. The memory foam beanbag chair is all hers. She can have it. #Cat is Queen.

According to daughter no 2 - Xmas can not start too early #xmasspirit #xmasenthusiast

Ugh, these new Twitter refugees are ruining the place for long-standing community members like me who have been here for ten days.

After the rain, autumn’s end.

Happy weekend all!
