My laptop is in for repair right now so I can only write by hand. I haven't handwritten this much since university. Can't wait to type it all up #writingcommunity

CHICKEN RUN PIE HANDSHAKE LET'S GOOO #GBBOspoilers

CHICKEN RUN PIE #GBBO

There’s no business like Dough Business! It’s Pastry Week on #GBBO, this Tuesday on Channel 4 at 8pm🥧

One of the things I love the most about this show is thst everyone is genuinely lovely. I want everyone to win, but especially Gary. Need some more Derbyshire rep #GBBO

Love seeing Connie get her flowers #GBBO #GBBOspoilers

'Pies are gay, they're coming out' 🌈 🏳️‍🌈 #GBBO

I want someone to talk about me the way that Nigella talks about pies #GBBO

Shoutout to the panic buyer in front of me in the till line who brought six dozen eggs. Famously non-perishable.

Imagine being such a yapper that Emma Woodhouse gets tired of you #JaneAusten

Got to show my partner Over the Garden Wall. What a masterpiece of a show. Genuinely perfect for Halloween. If you haven't seen it, go and watch it right now, you can watch the whole thing in like 2 hours.

Wild how much different a change font can make to a text. I changed a doc from Trebuchet to Perpetua and that lopped off about 15 pages. #writingcommunity

It’s pretty funny to be called “elite” for supporting trans people by a cigar-smoking, champagne-swilling, yacht-owning billionaire, but hey, why shouldn’t we all bow to the opinion of someone not trans, not queer, not a doctor, not a scientist, but who’s really really rich?

A Paul Hollywood Handshake is nothing to sniff at, but a Gary Handshake would be something else #GBBO

Finally watched this week's #GBBO I've been making my partner (who's never seen it) watch with me. Got to explain the legendary Paul Hollywood Handshake™ Won't spoil it for those who haven't watched but it was very deserved

Hatecrimed while doing research

I just want a fucking tablecloth from this place, why does everything have to be AI now.

NEW BOOK ANNOUNCEMENT: The news you've (hopefully) been waiting for! Coming July 13th 2027 from @penzlerpublishers.bsky.social : SO SPEAK THE DEAD Available to pre-order NOW (US only)

Walked down the street in the centre and got accosted by a guy from an energy company. Literally, from like 20 feet away, he said 'HELLO, ARE YOU FROM [LOCAL AREA]'. Had to awkwardly walk towards and past him. Do they train them to do that or what.

Finally caught up on this weeks #GBBO It's so funny to me that not a single person got the technical even remotely right. Like if Paul and Nigella are choosing which flatbread is the least raw, at that point, the issue isn't with the contestants, but the instructions?

Stephen's old tutor, Puddle, has spent the *entire* novel saying 'Look, you're different and that's fine.' Can only assume that when Stephen does come out to Puddle, she'll say, 'Finally, go date that hot French woman.' #Readingcommunity #WritingCommunity #Booksy

Stephen is in Paris, struggling to come up with writing inspiration, which keeps making me think 'damn I really need to write more.' In order to be inspired you need to Experience Things, but then to actually write, you need to hole away from the world. #Readingcommunity #Writingcommunity

When Grammy-winning musician Rhiannon Giddens begins playing “Old Corn Liquor,” a traditional Black American folk tune, acclaimed Chinese pipa virtuoso Wu Man recognizes similarities to Chinese pentatonic music and spontaneously joins in. The joy on their faces says it all.

I can smell the Doomed Yuri (tm) a mile off.

Not to brag, but I complained about #Goodreads not having half stars Once and now they're rolling it out so,, You're welcome 💅Clearly this was just my input.

can't stop thinking about our latest Google review

Trying to read a literary analysis of a classic novel and it was clearly written with AI. #Readingcommunity

Very rude of my lamp to break a week before I move (it's my fault)
