In the midst of my post Bearded Theory Festival Fibromyalgia flare: this has made my day!
There is an unexpected side benefit to having a Bearded Dragon in the house. Not only do I get regular visits whilst I'm working, from the child, Beardy & Cat, but also, I get to say the word Vivarium, which has a rather mellifluous feel when said aloud.
These three spend all day together happily.
Since he ruined my favourite playground, this is exactly what I needed today.

Went to an amazing @theguardian.com event yesterday. @zahrajoya.bsky.social was inspirational.
Please donate to @rukhshanamedia.bsky.social if you can, to help spread awareness of the gender apartheid going on in Afghanistan.
Generations of women are living in fear & growing up without education.
I just signed this important petition on Organise, please can you add your name?
PIP isn't something my family can live without - my Sister has MS so cannot work. My daughter has a specialist tutor because the school can't get her one.

When a toxic hospital consultant dies of a heart attack, fellow doctor Eitan Rose smells foul play. Nobody else does, though, including some quite crucial players like the police and the coroner. So when another senior doctor dies in similar circumstances, he's determined to prove there's more to these deaths than meets the eye. But following time off for his mental health, Eitan's friends and colleagues begin to question his judgement as his chaotic investigation and equally chaotic life spiral simultaneously out of control. Is he making a career-ending mistake, or could there genuinely be a killer stalking the wards? A deathly funny mix of mystery, murder and medicine, A PARTICULARLY NASTY CASE is the brilliantly original debut novel from Adam Kay, BAFTA-winning author of multi-million global bestseller THIS IS GOING TO HURT.
LATE NIGHT BOOK NEWS!
"A Particularly Nasty Case", the debut novel from Adam Kay,
@amateuradam.bsky.social is published at the end of August.

All this is true.
His track record speaks for itself. While we continue to resist, we should take comfort in that he is deeply incompetent, not very bright & his policies are hurting even his most devoted supporters. Let's not get in the way of his inevitable self-destruction.
Any excuse to get out of the house!
John Grant has just announced a show too!

Loved watching @michaelkiwanuka.bsky.social. His gig on Monday at Hammersmith Apollo included some interesting videos, great camera work & seamless movement between songs.
The whole night flew by & was over far too soon. His new album Small Changes is a perfect antidote to the usual distorted noise
Had an amazing Monday night at Hammersmith Apollo watching @michaelkiwanuka.bsky.social, with the wonderful @jappiah1.bsky.social as support.
Such warmth & happiness radiating out which reached us up in the nose bleed seats, the whole night was lit.
The strings & videos were a perfect touch too.
@roughtraderecords.bsky.social organised a smattering of music fans for the latest album by @thelathums
Great night despite the crappy view from the accessible area - as evidenced here. My view Vs camera held almost above my head zoomed at 2.5.
IT'S @bandcamp.com DAY!
1st up @heladonegro.bsky.social who sends wonderful music & positive vibes out with regular updates.
Then swinging by the sublime @kimdeal.bsky.social who absolutely killed it in London last week
Lastly @bellyofficial.bsky.social as the 30th anniversary of King is upon us💓

Reading @yayoikusama 's autobiography, Infinity Net and somehow just bought this dress. Have a feeling @heleneccles.bsky.social knows what I mean 🤣
Too dirty for the closet.
Too clean for the washing machine.
Welcome to chair limbo.
A book cover of yellow and orange stripes. The sub heading - The disabled girls’ guide to life - is covered in a lilac arrowed stripe.
Look what arrived! A real life proof copy of Who Wants Normal? The Disabled Girls’ Guide to Life.
Only 83% hysterical some people will be reading it soon.
Glad it's not one of her earlier New York works 🤭
I hope yall posted this on twitter too
Loving the latest Barry Adamson album, The Last Words of Sam Cooke.
Well worth an airing if you're sick of Christmas music being forced upon your ears.
We need the Living Wage for Musicians Act now!
The Media won't acknowledge this video of the farmers blocking an ambulance with its blue lights on so could you could RT it so people see it?
Blame that there band Beirut.
After they announced they were only playing two shows in Berlin, it upped the ante & I focussed on learning German (leaving the other seven languages in the breeze for now.)
Okay, so have donated to Make A Wish & Save The Rhinos.
Will track down the others mentioned here tomorrow!
