I mean, obviously the cure isn’t from science… it’s not like the processes to find how to neutralise Covid-19 were developed by painstaking study, study that was built upon decades, indeed centuries, of research and learning. The fields of chemistry and biology clearly contributed nothing to the vaccines. This short article is based on the […]
It’s been a strange year and at times a tremendous challenge, but tomorrow is Christmas Day, and I hope you all find a measure of peace and happiness tomorrow. From me to all of you…
I’ve recently on Twitter of attempts to suggest the people behind the #WeAreStarfleet hashtag are awful. If we are to accept that, then the perpetrators of that suggestion, the self-styled #FandomMenace, should take a look at themselves, for their behaviour is no better. Exhibit A: This ‘charming’ response to Fibble.. More from Fibble… There are […]
I’ve been inspired by a friend, and there’s going to be a bit more behind this post than will immediately be apparent (in the form of a video/audio interview, but I won’t say any more than that), but I’ve been thinking a lot lately about the phenomenon of ‘cancel culture’. On one level, I fully […]
A bit of a bolt from the blue this, but I’m not complaining. Any opportunity for publicity and attention is a welcome one! Check out my interview at Reader’s Magnet!
The phenomenon of the ‘Karen’ (google ‘Karen stories’) has long fascinated me. It’s a bit harsh on women called Karen (I happen to have a friend by the name), but to explain it briefly, Karen stories are about entitled middle-class white women with entitlement complexes. A male equivalent exists, though I forget what name they […]
Ladies and gentlemen, I invite you to gaze in awe and wonder at my latest tattoo, which I have to say is beautiful!

Be warned, there are spoilers ahead for Season 2 of The Mandalorian – if you wish to avoid them, don’t read this post. . . . . . . . . . . . . . Still here? I have to assume you don’t mind some major spoilers. Season 2 of the series began with […]
… won’t be happening next week, as instead I’m sorting out my review of 2020. Stay tuned for my take on what’s been a very challenging twelve months!
In the not so distant future, I will have been blogging at Meerkat Musings for TEN years. That's sort of scary. I never set out to reach a milestone like that, but ten years on, Meerkat Musings feels like my home-on-the-web, so to speak. #BloggingCommunity
Now, this I find difficult. Of those I have tried, which admittedly is not many, I am rather fond of McDonald's fries, though Burger King's have grown on me.
I am fortunate that so far (touch wood!) I have not had many hospital stays in my life. I dimly recall a couple as a kid (something to do with my ears, something else to do with teeth), but the main occasion I remember came as a 20-something meerkat. I discovered a lump in my […]
