Thorn Wilde

I've been running and losing weight (though a lot of the weight lost is simply thanks to changing my meds) and when I've been for my run I get a chocolate of some kind. Cause I need the blood sugar and I've still burned more calories than is in the chocolate. So that's how I motivate myself to do the bits that hurt, lol! A cheat moment, you could probably say.

Oh wow, that's amazing, rick! Well done! ❤️

Thank you! ❤️

I do, thankfully. Both online and irl, and both friends and family. I'll keep muddling on, don't worry. Thanks for taking the time to read and comment!

Thank you! I'm glad you're still enjoying it, and that you find the characters engaging. As for Grandmother, I promise you will learn more about both her and Grandfather soon enough. Next chapter there will be more Loz, though, so stay tuned for that.

He is indeed a gentle soul, and quite fragile in some ways. However, he is also remarkably strong and resilient. You'd have to be. Here's hoping that will be enough. Thank you so much for reading and commenting!

Morning, DiC! Hope you all have a good day. Same, lol! I'd love a third. Sigh... Well, I for one welcome intrusive musings. If there are any questions I can answer, please ask them.

Bedtime for me. Night, DiC!

Omg, that's awesome! Hope it works out.

What a dick! At least you made it home, though.

Doesn't seem like it will be very good for him, does it? Stephen and Lewis are great parents. Thanks for commenting!

Glad your brother is better! That's too bad. I suddenly know a lot of poly people. I've got a guy I really like messing around with... but I haven't in a long while cause Paul was feeling insecure. Now that he's here and things are settling I'm hoping this may change.

Here's hoping. Thanks for commenting! ❤️

Thank you! I'm glad you're enjoying it. Thanks so much for taking a moment to comment!

The new one is really good. I loved it. It's different, though, and they've changed the timeline a little bit, moved it forward in time.

‘Isn’t there anything we can do?’ Lewis was on the phone with Social Services again. Stephen sat at the kitchen table, listening to his end of the conversation. ‘I see. But—No, I realise that.’ ‘Put them on speaker,’ said Stephen, and Lewis relented with a sigh. Amanda’s voice came over the line. ‘You two would make a wonderful family for him. Mr. and Mrs. Hartman have a claim of sorts, though, as blood relations. But we’re not just sending him up there to stay forever, all right?’ ‘

I'm working my way through recordings of all the Tales of the City books at the moment. Just started on Further Tales of the City. They're good.

Absolutely. I've had two partners at the same time before, though they weren't together so it doesn't quite count as a throuple (or triad or whatever you want to call it). But I'm polyamorous. Currently in a monogamous relationship, though.

just because your friends say it that doesn’t mean you get to call me tranny you wouldn’t call someone a faggot so why do you think it’s okay to call me tranny they use that word to spit on us they use that word to threaten us they use that word to hurt us you talk about intent fuck your intent if you use that word i will assume that you are hostile i will assume that you’re a bigot and i will run the o

I feel the need to share a story that Neil Gaiman shared on the subject of impostor syndrome, that feeling that you don’t really deserve recognition because you’re not really special, you don’t belong, and any second people are gonna find you out, point and say, “What’s that person doing here??” He was at a big party full of Hollywood types, the wealthy and famous, and feeling out of place. But he ended up speaking to a person who shared his first name, who also admitted he felt like he didn’t belong in such exclusive company. So Neil Gaiman said to him, “Well, you were the first man on the moon. That has to count for something.” I love knowing that Neil Armstrong was such a humble individual, though I’m sure some would use that as “evidence” that the moon landing never happened.

Thank you, Fae. ❤️ I think in a way it would be easier for her if I just went ahead and did all the things. She’d be concerned and upset still, but she’d also have some kind of peace. But I’m not ready yet. I haven’t made up my mind about it all, and that’s okay too.

Thank you Wayne, and thanks for listening to me on Hangouts earlier, too. I appreciate you. ❤️

Good morning, DiC! Still out here on zoo island. In addition to Loke the lapphund (who has gone home) there are 4 cats and a poodle. Much cooler today. Cloudy this morning, but the sun is coming out. Yeah, the weather yesterday wasn’t great for him. It wasn’t as hot as what you’ve got, but he still handled it surprisingly well. Lay down in the shade a lot and drank plenty of water.

I want one for myself, too. He’s a wild one, though. I feel the need to share this with you too. 11:30 pm. Nordic summer. Probably heading to bed soon. Hope you all have a great day and a fantastic evening!

Thank you, Parker. ❤️
