“Full Gilead”

The Handmaid’s Tale. I’m guessing that by now you have read the book, seen the TV series or have just heard what it’s all about.  If not then get the book/audiobook, it is chilling. For a while now, husband and I have been discussing how long

“I’m not a feminist but….”

I follow ‘Man who has it all’ on facebook.  For those of you who don’t know him, he takes things that have been posted on social media or written by other people, about women, and changes the noun from female to male.  He reverses sexism in writing. Every time

Labiaplasty

Strahd’s Castle: It's all about the base (coat)

The Strahd’s Castle series The party are heading through Barovia to tackle Strahd in his domain.  I had an idea that I would try to enhance this process by crafting out Strahd’s castle, layer by layer, in map form….I didn’t really think this through before I

Names and Gender

A patient of mine, late teens, is requesting to transition back to male after originally asking to transition to female earlier in their life.  When we talked about it they told me they had realised that all they really wanted was to not be judged by their sex or forced

Terrain Building

How did I get into terrain building? I was bored.  I moved and my old hobbies, by and large, were not feasible in my new setting so I tried to find new ones. I started with growing fruit and vegetables because…well it seemed easy and I had dirt, well

What happens when I'm bored.

The dogs go to daycare a couple of days a week as a socialisation exercise.  It turns out there was a fancy dress competition....bring it on. Oh Yes! Hot glue gun, furry material, florists wire and greaseproof paper...did I mention the hot glue gun... A bit more effort
