What doesn't help is that while I'm attracted to men, I'm not attracted to many men. Can't tell if I've been single too long and just prefer my own weird solitude at this point.22 Aug 2026 09:30 +0000at://did:plc:qlpcql6duvvomlyrmx6a4pt2/app.bsky.feed.post/3mtnxo36flk2bhttps://bsky.app/profile/richwithtea.bsky.social/post/3mrz5klsn4k2oFirst half marathon in a while done.

Finished it today. And it was a delight. Queer horror is such a lovely genre.24 Jul 2026 18:58 +0000at://did:plc:qlpcql6duvvomlyrmx6a4pt2/app.bsky.feed.post/3mrfzuobnfs2ihttps://bsky.app/profile/richwithtea.bsky.social/post/3mqs4kqt7xk2aLet's not beat around the bush: sometimes you need to get drunk without caring about tomorrow. The catharsis is essential.16 Jul 2026 20:53 +0000at://did:plc:qlpcql6duvvomlyrmx6a4pt2/app.bsky.feed.post/3mqs4kqt7xk2ahttps://bsky.app/profile/richwithtea.bsky.social/post/3mqqpudssjs2wNeighbourhood green that's mowed every other week? Yellow and dying. My garden that's mowed every eight or so weeks? Green and buzzing with life. #Wildlife #gardening isn't just an aesthetic choice, it's a climate choice too.16 Jul 2026 07:33 +0000at://did:plc:qlpcql6duvvomlyrmx6a4pt2/app.bsky.feed.post/3mqqpudssjs2whttps://bsky.app/profile/richwithtea.bsky.social/post/3mqn3kml27k2gAttending a meeting at my old university tomorrow where I crashed out of a PhD due to piss poor pastoral care. Hard not to feel bitter + resentful even if leaving put me on a better path. Still stings + always a part of me that feels insecure about having quit. But it was that or a coffin.14 Jul 2026 20:52 +0000at://did:plc:qlpcql6duvvomlyrmx6a4pt2/app.bsky.feed.post/3mqn3kml27k2ghttps://bsky.app/profile/richwithtea.bsky.social/post/3mqaetbk4qc24Let's see what folks think [contains quote post or other embedded content]09 Jul 2026 19:33 +0000at://did:plc:qlpcql6duvvomlyrmx6a4pt2/app.bsky.feed.post/3mqaetbk4qc24https://bsky.app/profile/richwithtea.bsky.social/post/3mqae3w37hk24Had an interview today. Think it went well but won't hear for a fortnight. So we have wine and a wonderful homemade pizza. And yes I commit war crimes.09 Jul 2026 19:20 +0000at://did:plc:qlpcql6duvvomlyrmx6a4pt2/app.bsky.feed.post/3mqae3w37hk24https://bsky.app/profile/richwithtea.bsky.social/post/3mq2eceqjnc2iThe blackbirds and I have an understanding that the raspberries in the garden are free for all. But if they go after my blackcurrants then four and twenty of them can still fit in a pie. Also bit concerned I may have an excess of quince again this year so may retry making membrillo.07 Jul 2026 10:07 +0000at://did:plc:qlpcql6duvvomlyrmx6a4pt2/app.bsky.feed.post/3mq2eceqjnc2ihttps://bsky.app/profile/richwithtea.bsky.social/post/3mnc7fhx52c2bWhile the models chug away the yogurt will get made.02 Jun 2026 08:45 +0000at://did:plc:qlpcql6duvvomlyrmx6a4pt2/app.bsky.feed.post/3mnc7fhx52c2bhttps://bsky.app/profile/richwithtea.bsky.social/post/3mmrfkzd2b22hFirst gym session in months done.

Not going to do anything though because these were ones I bought ready to be sacrifices while I grew the proper ones from seed. Also given how much the local blackbirds enjoy rummaging in my raised beds I doubt they'll be there long.25 May 2026 12:06 +0000at://did:plc:qlpcql6duvvomlyrmx6a4pt2/app.bsky.feed.post/3mmoguondnk2whttps://bsky.app/profile/richwithtea.bsky.social/post/3mm7y43gor22jToday has been one of those days where while nothing has gone wrong or been bad, I've just not felt quite right. So to fix this I got some take away and I've got Watership Down on because I think a cathartic ugly cry might be just what I need.19 May 2026 18:04 +0000at://did:plc:qlpcql6duvvomlyrmx6a4pt2/app.bsky.feed.post/3mm7y43gor22jhttps://bsky.app/profile/richwithtea.bsky.social/post/3mm6xv4xzbc23Thought I had a ring ouzel in the garden.
