The past couple of years have been rough, mostly due to the weasels that live in my brain Over new years though, I had a series of breakthroughs in the meditative zone that is a bath I came out with new perspectives, new love for myself and others and magically, more hope. 1/?

From last summer, at a friends wedding. Love like I cant describe, gender like I never knew, hope that I didn’t know existed.

Survived a visit to Devon, the old man is at least mellowing out in his old age. Pretty cool place though.

@WillPoole Festivals are my happy place, Shambala, Noisily, EMF this year, as well as some small friend-run ones. Those main three represent in me: Hippie stuff Electronic Music Nerd stuff Raving, love, sharing moments <3

#RideBikesAndListenToMetal Q3; do you have any festivals in the diary, whether they be music or bikes?

#RideBikesAndListenToMetal Q2; what was the first bike you had that made you realise you liked whichever type of riding you now call your primary?

@Absolutemtb1 @endura At least the rest endur-s

Arrrrrggghhhh! I’ve lost the A of my favourite coat! @endura 😩

@spacedoutsmiles Turns out that a house built in 1956 with conversion, extension, extension, extension, makes for some weeeird shapes, Nothing is square XD

@ratheruseful Also… seeing a map of your crazy house layout makes me giggle as my mental map was totally different…, Pretty sure your house has an extra dimension or two…

Been paying with UniFi networking stuff and the software to map out coverage is really funky. Now, to drill more holes in this fine house

@spacedoutsmiles Was a rad day out, bikes and adventure, even if IBS tried to kill me XD. Thanks for the photo too!

Yesterday was amazing. Got out got a bike ride to exercise and test out some new med timing. It went really flipping well. Slept like a brick when I got home.. but it was totally worth it New meds are a game changer, not a magic bullet… but they give me more options than ever

@equalsShaun Doing much better! Been on a bit of a wild journey lately <3

Been a while, universe. As always, there’s a lot on, life, love, gender. Everything’s a lot at the moment but I got this. <3

Hittin’ trails, avoidin’ snails. W/ @spacedoutsmiles

@louispilfold Eeee! Thank you, i really wanted to push myself to go more femme, the girl at specsavers was rad and spent like 30 min helping me ^^

@ratheruseful Also, how cute are those glasses!!

Also: Whittling, a good way to kill a few hours <3

Good adventure today with @ratheruseful :) Still learning about my body and working stuff out. Woo for exercise.

🧵Yesterday rocked. It’s fun to meet interesting folks… & joyful to explore new tools. Yesterday had both! We visited a startup developing a mobility scooter with nifty tech to keep it stable & upright. It’s a game changer, perfectly filling the gap between my ebike & stick

@never_bottoms @angijones @TheGayMissAfoot *her

@angijones @TheGayMissAfoot That's odd, I don't recall him bringing up the fossil fuel industry

TERF is the new Punk.

@spacedoutsmiles Dangerous business those little games, it was great to see you engrossed and having fun though :)

It was a great tunnel and lots of play. I completely lost track of the time till @ratheruseful gave me a prod. Slow start today, small cafe adventure planned while I have support. Rebuilding momentum nicely after studio visit last Friday & meds mistakes Monday.

I sorta got distracted & accidentally stayed up till 2am getting some mid 90s software running on the VR test bench. It’s been a while since I’ve had that much fun to achieve something kinda pointless. Very very satisfying tho when it finally worked :) Silly, but joyful :)

Really fantastic day. Just made it home with a huge smile. Big thanks to @ratheruseful for support today. Love this pic… nice bit of well place scaffolding to lean on! Can’t wait till the new podcast series launches! Will let everyone know when we have the release dates :)

@hibbie Fighting juice

What in seven shades of shite is this nonsense?

Out in the countryside visiting friends, it's pretty idyllic out here. Also Lola!

Sat in traffic, still a good day.
