One of the biggest atrocities of being an adult is that no-one asks you your favourite dinosaur anymore.

Mine is Triceratops.

I get that all the time and the only things I’ve found that constantly work are very bad for you long term so I don’t recommend really.
I’ve tried to explain it to my partner but it’s almost impossible for someone who hasn’t experienced it to understand it.

Hi everyone.

A bit of an ask, my work is very…inconsistent, and I find myself in need of more consistent and reliable employment.

I am currently an academic support worker and exam invigilator.

I have a BA and MA in Creative writing.

I f anyone can help it would be appreciated.

My partner kept getting lost whilst we were away. I found out she was using the iPhone maps instead of Google maps.

I think I’m rethinking entire relationship…

So, I could take the fact that Stone Cold Steve Austin isn’t really a big beer drinker, he prefers wine.

I could take that.

But today I find out he’s a cat person?

Is my whole life a lie?

13 years customer service experience, a BA, a MA, experience in facilitating events and managing staff, and not only do I not even get an interview for a part-time assistant librarian job, I don’t even get an email to say so until I reach out.

BSFA Award for Best Collection Last night Blood In The Bricks won the British Science Fiction Association award for best collection. Given the calibre of works on the shortlist I was absolutely dumbfounded, and still am this morning. If you love short fiction, go check out those wonderful books, you're in for a treat. Credit: Vera Brook I'm so grateful to everyone who contributed to this book.

I love that so much was made in the early Ragnar books about how important the Spear of Russ is.
Then it’s made very clear in the last book, and in books since, how much he hated it.

The 13th company laughing about how Russ would see how far he could throw it when he was drunk.

It was a blanket policy. I didn’t even get the chance to tell them who I was going with.

I had booked in to see a consultant psychiatrist who specialised in adult adhd.
