    It is like describing an indescribable feeling.

    Thank you for caring. I ended up making another therapy appointment. I also sort of don't care about getting fired anymore, i made peace with it...

Who would be so desperate, To read this boring rhyme? You must have missed the other blogs, Every single time! Then you would have known to not, Waste your time with this. Instead of reading dreary prose, This blog you could dismiss. But just how many times do I, Have to warn you readers? That...

All o ye across this nation, Raise a brolly to precipitation. For o'er Blighty's fields o' green, From Bristol up t'Aberdeen. It always rains right through the year, Everyone in waterproof gear. Nay wonder all are miserable, When weather is reciprocal.

Fake it, don't make it. Your thirst - you can slake it, If born of the lauded, You just have to take it! A country once proud. Brought low by that crowd. Strip mined of love, Insulted out loud. My Gramps and your granny, Became our good nanny. Gave all that they had, And we sold it for fanny...

Ran out of weed yesterday and had no intention to buy more. This morning is day 1 proper without weed, as I had my last smoke yesterday morning. Recently I've been making sure I drink enough water each day, and shying away from the usual comfort eating with unhealthy foods and snacks. Still...

This is my third entry on autism and ageing because obviously the subject is dear to my heart. As a disability advocate, I also have a particular interest in people with disability who are older than the usual retirement age. They have considerable challenges regardless of disability. People...

I'd never call it poetry, it's only just a rhyme. That way I can flunk it, pretty near most of the time. Poetry is art, fine and full of feeling. Mine's more like a fart, the smell will leave you reeling. I wonder if I relish, making awful verse. I suspect the rest of you will only see a curse...

Everyday Life
Those lousy decisions, years gone past, And naught to retain, of a splendid repast. Mistakes were my own, the results I did mask, I just wanted love, was that too much to ask? But yes indeed, an arrogant hope, But surely not such an uncommon trope? Am I really so different from all the others...

The fantasy of a happy life, When all around is schlock, Is all that keeps our sanity, And stops us falling into shock. Why on Earth does sadness, Outweight the polar choice? When happiness ephemeral, Speaks a weak and fading voice? Abstraction be the way, Toward enlightenment. Reality's the...

Number 10 Through The Looking Glass! The time has come, the PM said, To talk of one or two things. Of vile folk (his voice did croak), And how corrupt are Kings? And why we'd vote for an evil goat, While tied like puppets on strings? The voters cried "We'll walk with you" "You speak to us so...

The so-called hard right in Europe such as Marine Le Pen, Nigel Farage, and their counterparts in Germany and Slovakia seem to be squishy soft in at least one important aspect. That is, their attitude towards Putin's war against Ukraine. Essentially, Ukraine is taking one for the team because...

With rotors which intrepidly revolve Crashing through deserts like a meteor Broken heart in a choking interior Blind watches measured the creator Boxes of lamb and unseen light Where should the idea itself fly To tame and to grow and try To help rejuvenate these poisoned minds Asking as if...

Why do I like to use swear words, Surely that's just really dumb. They say that swearing's for the birds, But I don't know, it just seems fun. But I think a word's a symbol, Meaning many things to some. Yet for me it's only nimble, Word play for the line to come. I have to wonder what you...

Sorry, but don't say I didn't warn you, but I say it how I see it, wrong or not. Panic Buying This is depressing prose, As only the lord knows, And so I recommend that you don't read it. For your inevitable, Conclusion is it's bull, The only other option is it's -----! Well my thoughts are...
I'm currently studying a unit on massacres and genocide. Cheery stuff but unfortunately, such phenomena is endemic to human history. The idea of the subject is not really about a body count but rather, to get an understanding of the legal concepts and why such terrible events occur. The most...

I had a not so great day today. I froze up, stared into space, and just shut off. Even though there was a task to do today. A few of them in fact. Fix the disk fixture that holds the lightbulb, in the garage. Help with trimming the bushes and cleaning up. I did neither. I shut off and shut...
Do autistic people age better than neurotypicals? Given we are often neglected, derided, and abused in our younger years, are we more used to the marginalisation of ageism when we get old (whatever 'old' means)? As I get closer to sixty, I have not achieved various benchmarks that the average...

I can easily recognise other people's feelings via body language I can instinctively pick up on tone of voice and facial expressions I feel guilt, remorse and shame a lot of the time if I feel I have upset someone (an overwhelming awkwardness) People's feelings matter to me, even if someone...

Lately I notice that I struggle to find the right words to describe something. For example, I couldn’t think of the word broth for thirty minutes and I was like you know the soup water…you know the sauce…my autism specialist thinks a speech therapist would be able to help me but I think it’s...

I am happy with a distinction I just received in the subject on Mediaeval Europe. Well, who wouldn't be? Perhaps a perfectionist who was hanging out for a high distinction. Certainly that would be nice but it didn't happen. The lecturer not only knew his stuff but he seemed to be a hardarse...
