R to @StevenNathans1: I’ll do exactly what I said I was going to do, yes, now that the statute of limitations is up.

So lucky to be surrounded by good, wise, decent people, both on here and in the tangible world. Evening with my boy, fellowship meeting of big laughs and feels, and chess and cuddles and tea with my fave. What a beautiful little life, very grateful to still be in it. 💕

Thankyou, Stroud. What a lovely bunch of people who turned out to the talk at the festival this evening - one of my favourite audiences I’ve ever had. Full of hugs (!) and kindness and hope this evening. Needed that. 💕

R to @BootstrapCook: And if you came, and you’d like to be part of the Comments Club here on my Twitter, just hit me up in my DMs (where the trolls can’t pounce on you…) and I’ll get on it. You were exactly what I needed this evening; Thankyou all for all of your grace, decency and kindness. 💕

To the trolls buying tickets to my events in bulk to try to embarrass me with empty seats, thanks for the sales, I’ve already been asked back.

To those who come to report back in dark internet corners, don’t forget to buy a book on the way out to burn - that’ll really show us!

I do have stuff to say about the suspiciously coordinated campaign of lies, harassment and libel that’s swirling around at the moment, but not tonight. I’ve spent 10 years challenging nonsense claims - those determined to believe the worst aren’t interested in evidence anyway.

R to @WycombeComanche: I answered every question I was asked - the event overran by an hour and a half because I stayed behind to talk to everyone who wanted to. Goodnight.

R to @jeee475: It’s never made a difference before, why would it make a difference now?

R to @WycombeComanche: Why should I engage with bad faith actors, liars, bullies, gaslighters, trolls, abusers and people who wish me harm? People who won’t care about the truth because they’re so invested in their fairytale villain narrative and sunk cost fallacies? What good would it really do?

R to @eoinmonkey: The Venn diagram of the pile ons and the terfs is almost a complete circle. Curious, that.

R to @WycombeComanche: There’s nothing normal or reasonable about a lot of the behaviour here, as you well know.

R to @WycombeComanche: Do you know how many notifications I get on here? And how many of the key players in this have blocked me so I can’t see their tweets? How can I reply to something I can’t bloody read?! I’m off to bed now. It’s been a long day and same again tomorrow. Goodnight.

From sober raving across London all day and night yesterday to now driving through Brecon Beacons on the way to do a keynote talk at #HayFestival (on less than three hours sleep!) - recovery promised me a life beyond my wildest dreams and it’s certainly delivering it right now 🥰
