Masters student, writer, mother to an unholy trinity of beasties. Above all things I am a lover of stories. Hearing them, watching, reading, creating. Like Crack, They are moreish…especially Good Omens.
@wellthumbed.bsky.socialSaw the book as a child and was terrified. Read the book at 18, assuming the book would be much nicer than the film. Nope nope nope. The book was, if anything, darker. You know. For the kids!
@wellthumbed.bsky.socialMy mother is keeping an eye on me. She’s trying to make me watch My Lottery Dream. Compromise must be found.
@wellthumbed.bsky.social#booktober right No. 11 is not a spooky book per say, but it scared the shit out of me when I read it for the first time. Richard Adam’s world building in Watership down is fantastic. Inleh-rah was terrifying in an understated way. And general woundwort scared me off rabbits for life.
@wellthumbed.bsky.socialWhy? Why would they do that?
@wellthumbed.bsky.socialThe best treasure awaited my return home! So pretty!
@wellthumbed.bsky.socialThey have unleashed me upon the unsuspecting masses. I am free to commit my devilish intent. Mwahahaha….mwahaha…ha…ha…I need a nap.
@wellthumbed.bsky.socialThe voice of reason!
@wellthumbed.bsky.social😂
@wellthumbed.bsky.socialRight?! Like sometimes it’s real pretty, but wedding dresses would be less complicated to get in and out of. Nae eating, drinking or shaggin…but you will look fabulous.
@wellthumbed.bsky.socialDoes anyone else ever look at an illustration or a character/performer in a costume and think “yeah, it looks cool, but how they gonna poop?” Like, I don’t think enough people consider the practicalities of emergency pooping situations. That met gala fit is fierce, but what if…just what if?
@wellthumbed.bsky.social“The pharmacy shuts early on a sunday, hopefully the doctors do their rounds before then so you can get away hame…” cross everything, pray to your favourite deity for me, I will burn sage, sacrifice something. I need out.
@wellthumbed.bsky.socialReferring to the custard as “a custard sauce” implies it’s not real custard. What actually is it?
@wellthumbed.bsky.socialIt is an excellent duck. It will join its brethren in the bathroom tomorrow. I say with all fingers and limbs crossed.
@wellthumbed.bsky.socialOhhh, I’ll have to give it a go. Kid friendly do u think?
@wellthumbed.bsky.socialOne the third day of hospital incarceration my true love brought to me. 2 queer lit books, 1 witchy duck and a charcoal moisturising face mask…none of which rhymes but he is a very good boy and deserves kudos for his service.
@wellthumbed.bsky.socialAparantly so. I’ve not watched it, but I loved the book back in the day.
@wellthumbed.bsky.socialCommiserations lovey.
@wellthumbed.bsky.socialI’ve had to do the jags every time I’ve had surgery. All good nae problem. I have NEVER been able to take soluble meds without being a little bitch about it.
@wellthumbed.bsky.socialThe nurse left me my medication on my wee tray table. Why are the fragmin injections less traumatic that the soluble pain killers? It’s Awrite, I don’t mind pain if it means I don’t have to choke that down🤢
