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 @VeronikaKoller: Thankyou for coming and for being so lovely (I’m sorry for the trolls that your kind words will attract, please don’t take them to heart, you were delightful and I’m very glad you came)
R to @SugaredPill: Thankyou for coming and for being so lovely (I’m sorry for the trolls that your kind words will attract, please don’t take them to heart, you were delightful and I’m very glad you came )
R to @chestnuttynora: Thankyou for coming and for being so lovely (I’m sorry for the trolls that your kind words will undoubtedly attract, please don’t take them to heart, I’m very glad you came )
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.
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 @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 @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
