R to @61harpy: Not unless I want to snack on ephemera from the garden, assorted socks, and dishcloths, no… 🤣

R to @edcruwys: Go get it checked out, in my extensive experience these things do not resolve themselves and the longer you tough it out, the more gruelling the recovery is… (took me almost a decade to take mine seriously and now deeply regret every procrastinated ‘brave’ minute of it!)

R to @JohnPotts2: Most of the rest of it is golden, including quite literally the flaxen-haired quartet of the dog and the boy and my mum and my sponsor, so I have much to be grateful for. Just a bit frustrating to be physically restricted and exhausted, but this too shall pass…eventually…!

R to @RadFemCat2: And yet, I (and apparently many others) make it regularly and it doesn’t end up in the bin. I’m can only apologise that my free content isn’t always tailored to your explicit and particular tastes, et cetera 😊

I thought my rinsed spaghetti hoops* were the most obscene thing a human being could do to pasta, and yet I have finally been outdone 😝

R to @Loztastique: Oh yeah this is a certain type of influencer trend where they do something outrageously daft just for the income generated by people watching it. The perfectly curated and monetised ego/outrage intersection. 😌

R to @martinimcfli: It wasn’t donated money. The guardian piece wasn’t clear on the timeline of events. I spent my own money, from a single book deal, on some nice furniture, while I was in the throes of addiction, several years ago. Patreon fed up after I got sober. I did clarify, extensively.

I’d like to apologise to the person who was standing behind me at the bus stop this afternoon while I was on the phone to my friend, because I’m sure you have some questions about the ‘oh god, I must do something about that fing head in the fridge before it starts to smell’ 🤪

R to @slimbird13: Boil it up, strip it down, deep fry the ears, strip the cheeks off, roast what remains, and make a pie, a stock, some dog food, and a loaf of brawn out of it. Naturally.

R to @Hey_Moustache_: Actually it was stashed with the ribs, a couple of hearts, and some lungs. (I’m aware I’m making this worse for myself, and I don’t care 😆)
