It's been a weird year.
I was scrolling through my online calendar trying to mentally summarize 2011 and I thought ‘Hey, why not make this into a totally emo Tumblr post?!’ So I did. I spent a lot of time at the student occupation. General hanging out, sweeping floors, making tea, going to workshops and meetings. Although I was glad it ended when it did, for ages afterwards it felt weird that it wasn’t...

Haha, just remembering that time when I was 17 and...
I was off ma face and having all these, like, deep insights, man. And decided to start doodling (I normally can’t draw at all), expecting it to turn out like this: Actually it looked more like this: Then I had an actual existential crisis and was convinced I was going insane so that was a bit upsetting, but then I ate an orange and felt a bit better. I spent the next hour staring at a...

Gemma: Dude, do you remember that time we got back to yours at 2am and I ate like three pickles and you totally judged me?
Me: Hahaha, yeah.
Gemma: Was that that night at Heavenly?
Me: Yeah. That was also the night I did the most middle-class vomit ever just before we left.
Gemma: Ahh right. That wasn't the same night I took my shoes off and walked along your street barefoot...?
Me: Yeah, it was.
Gemma: Oh.
Me: Yeah.

So I went to the gym for the first time in months, which was good. Though they’ve got these new machines that you can watch telly on and it reminded me a bit too much of the second episode of Black Mirror… And I forgot to bring a book so I basically spent the whole time pondering the social pressure amongst trans guys to get swole, especially guys who are on T. And then I was too...

get busy living or get busy dying: On the word... →
weill-bodies: guerrillamamamedicine: bonjoursex: As women, we are often told to “have some class.” This word has always irked me because it basically means, “Wow, look at how good she is at being a lady the right way, the socially acceptable way,” which is a weird fucking thing to say. Classy… Classy is a word I like to reclaim. The reclamation process generally involves Buckfast.  I...

cleveraintwise: What if I am actually just a total bastard? I mock a lot of things, I get annoyed easily, I’m not a big fan of people most of the time. What if I’m a cunt and what if everyone realises that I’m a cunt and then they go away and then all I have is my flawless sarcasm and angry blog \o/ I’d still love ye ya miserable bastard. <3

Internal dialogue
Me: Ach, actually I don't need to go to the library to study, I can totally do work at home.
Sensible me: Are you sure? You know what usually happens...
Me: Humph! I'm an adult, I'm totally capable of being responsible and studying at home and I resent the implication that I can't.
Sensible me: Okay, well, whatever you say...
: *three hours have passed, no work has been completed, currently looking for Twin Peaks DVD after having just finished rolling a joint*
Me: Oh, okay. Point taken.

By the time I rolled out of bed it was already dark, fail. Determined to make the rest of today productive by getting over-caffeinated (check), starting and finishing my essay on the medicalisation of trans* experience, and bin hoking.

Of which I am most proud: List from Morrissey →
factoryline: Such total bullshit. Ahahaha, oh dear Mozza. At first I lol’d because Rank is there, then I realized it’s actually more hilarious that Ringleader and Years of Refusal are on there at all.

Just got reminded that I also need to go to the post office. Whilst getting ready I made a mental list of what to get, paused on “packing tape” and have spent the past ten minutes chuckling to myself. I then googled to see if packing tape is actually the proper name and the Wikipedia article mentions ‘pressure-sensitive tape’. If I have to ask the nice man behind the...
