Bet you thought I’d gone, right? Well, you’d be partially correct. Everyone has been putting on a brave face around the Covid stuff but for me it’s been personally very hard. See, as you might have guessed from the content of this blog, I’m not quite the average Joe. I have a number of entertaining… Continue reading [Philosophy] Abnormal Service is, well, kinda resumed

Holy crap on the proverbial cracker, this isolation stuff is getting ridiculously hard. Partly because we have key members of the government, or at least their ‘aides’ (for aide see ‘Grima Wormtongue for details), flagrantly ignoring the restrictions because obviously they know better/are better/delete as appropriate. But mostly because it just seems to be stress… Continue reading [Philosophy] Therapy? Smerapy.

If it wasn’t incredibly sexist I’d be describing my mindset under the lockdown as ‘completely off my tits’ right now. I thought I was handling it OK but turns out not really; every day is the same, wake up and for those too short seconds not remember about the situation. Then I remember and it… Continue reading [Fashion] Strike a Prose…

Week seven of lockdown and I thought the best way to counter the rapidly growing feeling of wall-climbing and anti-agoraphobia would be to revisit and talk about Sarah’s forays into, ta-dah, the Real World (C). I know I’ve talked about it a lot in various blog-posts but given I’ve been sat on my bed for… Continue reading [Fun] The Grea-T Outdoors

Not sure where you are around the world but I’m in the UK right now and it’s an odd and very, very sucky situation. Yeah, apologies up front, this is going to be a femm-heavy first-world-problem blog, but let me explain why… We are living through a virtual pandemic. Not all of us, granted. Some… Continue reading [Philosophy] Beauty and the damn Beastie

For the normal man in the street this isolation is a pretty big pain in the arse. But I’m not the normal man in the street, cough, and for me it’s pretty damn tricky. My partner is aware of my alter-ego and tolerates, if that’s not too strong a word, my time when I’m ‘not… Continue reading [Fun] An Isolated Mind is a Delightfully Dangerous Thing

Sometimes you just have to laugh. Or cry, the choice is not that easy nowadays and there’s often very little between the two. Anyway, this is an interesting blog; not because of the content (which I hope will be interesting) but because of how I had to write it. Delete it. Write it again. Pictured… Continue reading [Philosophy] Surviving surviving, a guide to T-Self Isolation

There are times when it goes right. And there are times when it doesn’t. The last week has been…..not fun at all. And that’s a bloody understatement, See, I had a double session planned, my first since early December. The week before the planned session I had a mad runaround time with work and real-life,… Continue reading [Fashion] An Archival Cheer-Me-Up

Yeah, I know I should use the word ‘mastering’ but the whole point of this blog is to break those phallocentric norms that society forces upon us, so bear with me. It’s probably obvious to you, dear reader, that a number of the posts I put up here are actually directed at myself. I use… Continue reading [Philosophy] Mistressing the Bullies

I hate January. Well, that’s not strictly true, I love Winter, where you can put clothes on, as opposed to Summer, where you can’t take skin off, but in terms of mental happiness January is a pisser in a lot of ways. Chuck in political and societal instability and the interesting spectacle of democracy imploding… Continue reading [Philosophy] ‘The Three She-me-gos’
