(Content warning – frank and casual mentions of rape) I described myself as nominally bisexual the other day. It occurred to me that if I’ve ever done that before it would have been in my twenties when I was struggling to get a girlfriend, or any interest from women and I couldn’t turn around for … Read More
I started explaining to M-i-L and FJ that the biggest lesson I had learnt over the weekend was not to have a first kiss whilst in character and they started laughing.

(Content Warning: mentions LARP sucide, real life bereavement and real world mental health, is a very rambly ramble about a LARP with way too many digressions AND contains Spoilers for The Castle LARP) Photos by Míša Portychová So, The Castle, whew.

It’s still a Womanizer – I … Read More
(Content Warning: Oh gods Emotions and THERAPY AGAIN?????!!!) I heard about the death of a friend and my hands began to grieve. I could feel him under my hands, the sensations, the curves in his spine. In 2020 I got really familiar with the heaviness of grief. It felt as if I was weighted to … Read More
*(Content Warning – I do mention real world death, mostly it’s me rambling about the game though, there’s a lot of IC sex-scandals and some slut shaming oh then things went really mad over the mafia)* Yeah, it’s that game again.
