Adopting a totally feral cat is amazing. I tamed her through reading Terry Pratchett to her, but now she demands it before bed every night. She stands at the top of the stairs and shouts until I come up and read to her, and then she gets into her hammock and listens until asleep.

At some point, the carpenter must have weighed up whether hiding this in the top of a church would be funny enough to risk eternal damnation for. Also, as slow-burner jokes go, 800 years is quite the wait. Unequivocally worth it though.

Nobody ever called Paul O'Grady a nonce, nor should they have, because he wasn't. Lily Savage was based on a sex worker, but was on prime-time telly. The only reason people are kicking off about drag queens or trans people now is because of a well-funded culture war. That's it.

I respect identities and pronouns, because I'm not a dick, but the moment it hit me that trans women are women was years ago, when a trans friend arrived at a party, upset, after being hassled by a man in a car who actually drove round and pulled over to threaten her. One of us.

For those new to this, she was *so* feral when I adopted her that she put me in hospital within the first 24 hours. Bitten to the bone on both hands and one leg. I persevered, and the Terry Pratchett books paid off. 6 months later, she's the gentlest, most loving little baby.

Whenever a chap boasts about having had sex with lots of people, I assume he's not very good at it - none of those people wanted to stick around and do it with him regularly so he kept having to find new ones. The higher the number, the more inept he must be at sex.
