(Content Warning – discussion of suicidal ideation, remember the Samaritans are always there for you 116 123) Usually when I stay in Glasgow I end up at the Leonardo on a last minute offer because it’s pretty much unused over a weekend. This weekend that has not happened and I went for the cheapest option … Read More
(Content Warning mentions therapy and ASD, there’s a frank mention of sex at the end). I’ve written here before, about two or three years into my relationship with The Jellicle about the way I feel love most within a group of interconnected loves. M-i-L has been very grateful in the past that my way of … Read More
Honestly living in Japan was basically a gift to being poly. A whole extra day of romance! Normally I luck out and I’ve given gifts to The Jellicle on Valentines so I get something lovely today – not so this year though! I wasn’t well and was alone in the house while the Jellicle was … Read More
(Content Warning – poor mental health, description of a mental break, mention of suicide) I’ve mentioned a few times that I suffered from a mental break last year. They used to be called nervous breakdowns. Technically a doctor can’t say definitively that I did because I didn’t immediately end up in in-patient care. However two … Read More

I am feeling very done with things today. I’m fed up of The Jellicle being in isolation over at Imp’s house and I feel like job wise the pandemic has just caused everything to slide backwards. I don’t really mean for me I mean for the vulnerable people I work with. However I also mean … Read More
I mean, this takes place in Pride month so this year there’s more bunting (we don’t just have the Pride Flag we have the Bi and Trans flags too) and I managed to buy a huge Pride flag with ‘#PRIDE’ printed across it.Usually we have some Pride flags across the place but me and The … Read More
(Content Note: If you’re uncomfortable with me talking about my kinks and/or feelings then this one isn’t for you!) As ever, when I talk about labels I feel like need to write an extensive disclaimer, so many queer women find labels to be problematic. I guess I kind of don’t when it comes to labels … Read More
Last year I wrote about having a community of elders rather than a single mentor. This year I’m returning to the notion of what mentorship actually is, my sister is involved in a more formal mentorship program, obviously this isn’t a Queer thing this is a Woman thing cause my sister at least claims to … Read More
