It’s April! Has Spring finally sprung? And why do I wear a disgruntled expression? To answer the latter question, let’s rewind to the 20th of March… Supply Chains I fully appreciate that there are some issues way beyond the control of anyone where I work, such as the on-going disruption to our supply chain. This […]
I don’t know if I am especially capable of directly contributing to a sci-fi feminist blog, though I already have one or two ideas that are bubbling away. However, I can certainly spread the word, so if any of you ‘kats wish to do so, there is an email address at the link!
It’s hard to believe that Doctor Who has reached 60 years. The show became infamous for terrifying monsters and sinister stories over the course of its original run, but it declined in the 80s, with the BBC cancelling the series, leaving the titular Time Lord hanging. A TV movie briefly restored the Doctor to our […]
If you were going to open up a shop, what would you sell? Where do I begin?! If I could only pick one, I’d steer towards sci-fi stuff, but if I could, I’d sell items from across my interests. It might make for a strange menagerie, but I’d be completely at home surrounded by all […]
Do I get to pick the universe? Can I choose multiple universes? Well, whether I can or can’t, I’m going to do anyway. Doctor Who Aside from the strong possibility of dying at the hands of any one of a variety of monsters, I don’t think my life would be substantially different. Star Wars There’s […]
What are you passionate about? If we’re talking casual interests, I can write you a fairly long list. I could go on. Star Trek, Doctor Who, The Lion King, Liverpool Football Club… these are all subjects of great personal interest to me. In most respects, these have been lifelong interests too. I know where my […]
Hmm. What can I set up for my ‘kat followers to sink their teeth into? Pineapple on pizza? Metric or imperial? Lager or ale? Is it called football or soccer? The tricky part is in setting up any form of debate that isn’t opinion-based. If I were to suggest ‘Star Trek vs Star Wars’, well, […]
I’d have to include some of my weird, personal artwork, such as the above. It would fun to receive that again, some twenty or thirty years from now. I’d chuck in my meerkat costume, for giggles. There’d be some railway stuff in there. How could I not feature something Lion King related? There would inevitably […]
This prompt requests a picture, but I don’t have a picture to share that’s my own, so I’ve shamelessly borrowed one from Ebay. I have a reasonable collection of Star Trek Micro Machines, though I no longer possess all the ones in the pic, and some of them I never owned. I sold my Enterprise-E, […]
The Muse has returned! As we approach the middle of November, I tend to pause and reflect upon the previous twelve months, as November is my birthday month. I become another year older (not necessarily any wiser mind), and I contemplate the relentless passage of time. Ideally, my birthday would also be a time to […]
Breached the 70K mark on my wip! Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah!
This is just sheer absolute, exquisite beauty.
I have eaten too much pizza.
I don't think it's up to you to decide what's best for women, nor whether or not men can find them attractive...
You may be wondering where this post will go. Well, let’s place the scene in the restaurant above. What might I deem inappropriate behaviour in this setting? A restaurant has waiting staff, who (depending on the quality of the establishment) may or may not be paid a particularly decent wage, yet will work very hard. […]
