On Hozier's music and cottagecore
I've seen a lot of people saying that Hozier isn't cottagecore, and while all of their reasons are very good and true I'd argue that it is cottagecore, just not for the reasons most people believe. Cottagecore is extremely anti-capitalist in a way that I don't think a lot of white people understand. Cottagecore was made for social outcasts, the people of color who are realizing that a white supremacist society was not made for them, and those struggling financially because it's not about having flowery dresses and lots of decorations and Hozier's music. It's about making those dresses and feeding yourself off the land and distancing yourself from the life-sucking hellscape that it modern capitalist society. There's a hope for happiness and better times and a little teeny-tiny bit of whimsy in cottagecore, and I feel like there's all that (and so much more) in Hozier's first album.
The people who say that his newest music isn't as good because it isn't "bog king" enough are uncreative and annoying and don't appreciate the inspiration that Black music has contributed though.

Greetings Ladies, Gentlefolk, and Domesticated Cryptids!
Hello all! Welcome to the corner of the internet dedicated to my various and varied ramblings, fandom lizard brain, and updates on the sheer chaos that is my AO3. (Yes this is Inky's personal Tumblr. The one who wrote both the 55k+ Miraculous angst fic and the one where Infinity War was avoided thanks to a tweet. I contain multitudes.)
I've seen other blogs do one of these posts just to lay out stuff, so figured I would as well :)
Basic Information
~ I do swear. A bit. A lot. It's a good stress release idk. (By swear, i mean fuck, shit, asshole, nothing worse than that--*creative* insults will also be included)
~ I'm still figuring out how the whole interface works so it might be a bit before i can do tag organizing and shit like that.
~ DNI's: Bigots, TERFs, Tories, homophobes, transphobes, Intolerant Jerkwads of just about any sort (NOT referring to those who are intolerant of people who cry persecution), racists, ableists, misogynists, Mental-health deniers, anti-science idiots, anyone who is a jerk of any sort--i reserve the right to refuse access to my blog to anyone at all at any time. I will block u. Don't fucking test me.
~That being said if you are a decent human being then welcome! :D
~ If i make a mistake, please please correct me. I'm not gonna be mad.
~Jysk i don't respond to DMs at this time. Comments and reblogs, I probably will.
~Plagarisim will not be tolerated. Reblogs are very welcome though!
~ Preemptive apologies for my copious use of meme speak. Those of you coming from my AO3 will already be aware of this.
~ Long posts will have the "keep reading" button activated
~ Please just try and be a decent human. This whole section probably seems really damn strict but i know how the internet works and figured I'd better cover all my bases. This is supposed to be a fun thing. I wanna keep it that way. "A truly tolerant society must be intolerant of intolerance"

Hey! Glad to see a new obey me blog! For a request maybe the brothers and Simeon, Luke, Diavolo, and Barbatos react to a GN!MC who practices witchcraft but also Hellenic Polytheism (someone who worships and works with the Greek deities). If this is something you need help on like explaining wise Just shoot me a message!
DEMON BROS + UNDATEABLES WITH AN MC WHO PRACTICES WITCHCRAFT & HELLENIC POLYTHEISM.
i said i'd post tmrw but ig i lied bc i had a spontaneous burst of energy and felt bad promising i'd do this req earlier </3 also added solomon anyways since i felt bad leaving the local bastard man out 😞
LUCIFER
great, now we got two shady, magic-using humans running around the devildom.
all worries aside, it's probably for the better that you know/practice witchcraft so that you can protect yourself better here in the devildom.
just don't go pulling any pranks or he'll lecture you for five hours straight 🙄
on the other hand, i don't really think he cares about your religion - y'know, as long as you aren't worshipping his father, because then he'll be "a bit" salty.
probably met a few greek gods while he was an angel + hades a couple times during meetings before and after he came to the devildom so he's chill with your religion.
MAMMON
at first, he was on the verge of throwing a temper tantrum.
this human can take care of themself! why does he have to babysit them?!
not to mention he was lowkey scared hearing you did witchcraft because he didn't need another witch on his ass
once he warms up to you though, you guys go on all sorts of magical shenanigans together (like canonically anw lol).
you save his ass several times with your magic and although he won't say it aloud, he's eternally grateful you've helped him hide 60% of his schemes from luci.
when he hears about your religion, his first immediate reaction was to incorporate it into his schemes.
specifically, he'll ask you to do rituals and/or give offerings to his good ol' friend, hermes the greek gods on days he goes out gambling so he can have extra luck.
basically all around neutral about it <3
prolly snags you stuff from time to time that have to do with witchcraft or seem like good offerings.
LEVIATHAN
another one that'll ask you to do rituals/give offerings for good luck. he can't win those limited edition ruri-chan & luminous-chan figurines 100% all the time.
sometimes will join you in hopes to double his chances LMAO
as for witchcraft, i think he'd be glad you can protect yourself when it comes down to it.
he's happy to protect you and be your lord of shadows, of course, but he admires you for being so brave to find ways to ward off other demons by yourself.
"lolol look at this normie beating your ass with their magic! oh shit - henry, you can't fling them against the wall like that! this isn't harrison porter!!"
radiates "best friend, show 'em your moves" vibes 💀💀💀
SATAN
finally, a worthy comrade.
you two most likely instantly hit it off and he's more than happy to teach you any spell you want to know as long as you teach him stuff from the human world in return.
his brothers mainly lucifer always become test subjects for you two willingly or not.
doesn't mean you guys are getting off the hook that easily when something goes down.
be the voice of reason and spare lucifer, please.
always lends you wiccan/spell books and other similar works that remind him of you all the time.
magic lessons with satan & solomon!
now about your religion, he's intrigued.
he's never met any of the greek gods unlike his brothers, so he'll definitely read up on them to understand your practices more.
sometimes joins you in your rituals and it may or may not have become a habit.
it's all for scientific research - he swears.
ASMODEUS
doesn't think much of witchcraft but is glad you're able and at least interested in protecting yourself from nasty lesser demons.
goes out of his way to buy you fashionable accessories that have a witchy/cottagecore vibe to them if you're interested <3
happy overall though because now his two favorite humans get along so well!!!
y'know, as long as you don't leave him out >:(
now, religion time. he'll also bring you items and trinkets to give as offerings to the greek gods as he has nothing against them.
actually kind of has a friendly rivalry with aphrodite, so he's more than happy to chat up with her once in awhile and put in a good word for you.
BEELZEBUB
has no problem with your practices of witchcraft and religion as long as it isn't hurting anyone.
now if the offerings you give are food-related in any way, he might have to back out and politely excuse himself.
he wants to make you happy by joining you in your daily routines, but he's just so hungry and doesn't want to upset you by eating the offering.
so as long as it doesn't have anything to do with food, whether it's edible or not and you have a bunch of food for him too in preparation, he'd be more than ecstatic to join you.
most supportive babie boy <3
BELPHEGOR
depending on your level of experience in witchcraft, the whole attic thing (mainly you dying) could've never happened/been altered.
don't get me wrong - regardless of being the youngest, he's still a very powerful demon - but i think if you were a very experienced witch, you may or may not have had a 50/50 chance or more of holding out against his attack(s) until the brothers came to find you.
anywho, moving on, he's another one that's glad you're able to protect yourself. will sometimes join you and satan in your study sessions, but will fall asleep in your lap like a cat.
loves to have the formerly anti lucifer league prank, well, you guessed it, lucifer.
as for your religion, i'm pretty sure he's very indifferent about it. supports you and is amused, but doesn't really care since it doesn't hurt his feelings in any way?
tldr: please be the voice of reason & spare lucifer p2.
DIAVOLO
great! his two human exchange students can protect themselves!
loves to hear about the history of witchcraft and magic in the human world from you during tea dates or whenever you're over.
will help you whenever you get stuck on a spell and loves to see what you can do.
overall just v supportive and wholesome <3
still, once you're romantically involved, he'll be all for protecting you so that you won't have to think twice about resorting to protecting yourself with magic.
(you wouldn't even get messed with if you're dating the future king of the devildom but anywho)
fully supports you and your religion.
why wouldn't he? it would just be another nice step to take to create peace between the three realms.
totally helps you out with rituals and offerings. even joins in a lot or whenever he has the time.
is totally friends with hades and sees him as a father uncle figure, so be prepared to meet the one and only.
BARBATOS
has a more than fair share of knowledge on witchcraft and is more than happy to talk about it with you.
feels relieved that you're so comfortable here in the devildom and are able to take care of yourself.
once again, is another one who's pretty indifferent.
helps you set up rituals and gifts you offerings/trinkets like asmo.
as long as no harm comes from your practices, he's more than glad to watch you go about your daily routines and even partakes in them with you occasionally.
SIMEON
is also relieved to hear that you have basic knowledge on witchcraft & magic in general.
now he knows the bible condones witchcraft, but as long as you aren't hurting anyone, he doesn't have a problem with it.
mainly suggests you do white magic or at least grey magic, though. bible boy doesn't want you messing with things that could potentially hurt you or backfire, really.
he's more than happy to help you set up rituals and bring you offerings much like barb and asmo.
hell, if you visit purgatory hall often, it could become a daily thing for you two.
another incredibly dedicated and supportive boy <3
SOLOMON
much like satan, you two hit it off almost instantly.
you two visit each other pretty often exchanging knowledge on different spells and rituals.
the two of you are stuck together like mf glue much to the brothers' disappointment.
study dates with a max of four including you, solomon, satan, & occasionally belphie.
your rituals (religion-wise) have grown on him.
michael may or may not be upset but solomon here doesn't care JDKSJSK
always lends you wiccan/spell books and any other items you may need that remind him of you.
basically just a very understanding and supportive relationship <3
LUKE
starts admiring your abilities once he sees them in action (aka you protecting beel and him from luci that one time).
"woAHHH, MC, THAT WAS SO COOL!!"
beside michael & simeon plus lucifer, you're his number one role model.
no matter how small or big of a spell you practice or perform, he's always an awe.
lowkey disappointed he can't play guardian angel, but soon cheers up knowing it's better that you can protect yourself this way.
if you ever need any food-related offerings, he'd be more than happy to bake you some!
as long as beel doesn't sniff it out and get to him first 😰😰
obey me masterlist.

Although I say I love Aleksander because he's hot and evil and sexy,this man genuinely makes me tear up. I love him. No,you don't get it. I love him. I have immense respect for this man and how driven and determined he is even at his worst. He deserved better,and this is a hill I'm willing to be buried alive on.
The fact that when he was a child,who was almost murdered by children his own age, decided to make this world a better place for others like him so NO ONE has to go through that,is said to be his "villain origin story" is so fucked up.
Respectfully,that's not a villain. That's a child who knows nothing but fear. Fear of living. Fear of being caught. Fear of disappointing his mother. Fear of not living upto his potential. Fear of forgetting his own name. This child was almost murdered by his own kind,but it did not make him angry. It made him understand. It made him realise that the helplessness of his people is the reason why they take such desperate measures. And he promises himself that he will make sure no other person his kind has,no matter how weak or strong,will ever go through the same circumstances. This isn't a villain origin story,it's the birth of a revolutionary, tired of being scared of merely existing.
Alot of people in this fandom say Aleksander is a fascist. Who's gonna tell them that a man fighting against the majority who allow his people to be murdered is not a stand-in for Hitler? He is the oppressed minority here,not the oppressor. He's not the one killing innocent people for existing. (Read a book,y'all)
The Grishas face state sanctioned violence,are sold as slaves, treated like lab rats and experimented on,burned at stakes like witches for simply existing. And Aleksander is a man who's seen centuries of this. He is someone who's fighting wars on three different fronts. This man is the only one in those books trying to break the status quo and bring down the monarchy. If you stop siding with the oppressed minority just because their methods don't fit into your boxes,you are siding with the oppressor. Of course he's going to be brutal,he did not turn into what he is in a single day. He was a child who strived for peace and centuries later,he's an immortal who's tired of fighting the "right way". He is the only person who fought for the Grishas. Alina joined hands with the same monarchy that ignored the violence against Grishas and Nikolai is pretty much the woke,white saviour,a product of the same monarchy. Even if it's called The Grisha Triology,it's heavily anti-Grisha and does nothing to ease their suffering. The narrative that "killing=bad" is shoved down our throats multiple times. In itself,it's a pretty centrist take. Aleksander was NOT a supremacist,he was NOT a fascist. They did not care about his motives,they just saw him as evil because those methods didn't cater to their ideals. So they killed him,destroyed the Fold,one piece of protection for the Grishas and called it a day. What about Shu Han experimenting on Grishas, Fjerda burning them on stakes and Kerch selling them as slaves? Bad guy gone,Fold gone,time to fulfill my cottagecore dreams<3 Also,Zoya becoming the Queen of Ravka doesn't solve anything. Assuming this gives off the same vibes as "Oh,a Black President,racism solved!!!" NO. Girlboss-ifying Zoya isn't the answer, especially when people have such strong hatred towards Grishas. It needs to be eradicated from the grass root level and will take years to happen.
The flashback in the show,where the king's soldiers repeatedly shoot arrows at him no matter how many times he told them he did not want to harm them and then seeing Luda being killed immediately while he kept on begging,makes his behaviour totally understandable. "But there has to be another way,right?" Try telling this to the centuries old man who has used any method possible. Served several kings and won them wars to get on their good side hoping it would make things easier for his people. His methods are shown to be brutal now because he's been trying for a long time and nothing else worked.
Given the present day scenario and minorities all over the world facing systemic oppression and their lives being threatened, Aleksander did NOTHING wrong. We can take into account the BLM and Stop Asian Hate movements. If you do not fit into their boxes of activism and protests,they claim you're the wrong ones. They do not work for your betterment,but they keep on demonizing you and belittling your cause. In the same way, Aleksander was leading a rebellion against the persecutors,while the Good Ones™ only cared about his methods and reminding us how evil he is, not giving a single fuck about his motives,or the geopolitical situation. At the end of the day,they win. Because it's easy to kill the rebel,easier than helping him in his cause and taking away the suffering of his people. If Alina and the rest of them really wanted to be the heroes of this story then they shouldn't have made killing the only man who gave Grisha a sanctuary and was trying to improve their situation as their main goal if they were going to do nothing after their woke victory moment. I have absolutely no idea how they're going to acknowledge racism against Grishas in the show and kill the only person striving to stop it without recieving backlash for it.
TL;DR: If a revolutionary man came to me, asking for help to make this world a better place for OUR people,stop their oppression and bring down the ones who use our people for their benefit but do not bat a fucking eyelash when they're killed,I would've helped him. No matter how evil or corrupted I'm being framed as. RIP to Alina Starkov,but I'm built different. (I'll also like to fuck him but we're talking about serious stuff rn and y'all already know I'm a whore for him)

Are we whiplashing back to the 70s?
First Burger King returns to its old logo.
Then I saw this at Target.
Tumblr media
Is . . . is that a Granny Dress??
There were others, too.
Tumblr media
I haven’t seen Granny Dresses since I was a teenager.  In the 70s.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
They were also called Maxi dresses and Peasant dresses.  Are these really back in fashion??
Don’t get me wrong, I loved the early 70s.  From 1970 to about 1974 there was what we’d now call a whole Cottagecore/Farmcore vibe. People wanted to escape the riots and turmoil of the late 60s and make hand-built houses, and have small communes with farms. They rejected consumerism. Girls stopped wearing makeup and doing their nails and wore their hair natural.  So did guys, including lots of beards and mustaches.  Everyone wanted to “get back to the garden,” back to nature.  So they made their own candles, bought old clothes from thrift shops and resewed them.  They marched and protested to end pollution, and they created Earth Day.
Handmade houses were built from abandoned, falling down barns and farmhouses, which farmers were often glad to have hauled away, adding bits and pieces from scrapyards and salvage yards. They were often off the grid, with no indoor plumbing or electricity.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Then the Vietnam War ended in 1975.  Guys no longer had to worry about being drafted.  It was like a fucking party.  Charlie’s Angels became a TV hit, and girls chopped off their hair and styled it like Farrah Fawcett’s, and went back to wearing makeup and nail polish.  Disco took over.  Granny dresses disappeared, except to the faithful.
I can’t fucking believe I’m seeing Granny Dresses again.  Though a lot of people like Cottagecore now, I don’t think they’re into the whole Reject Consumerism, Simplify Life, Live Without Tech mindset.
The irony is, Granny Dresses were originally part of the anti-consumerism movement.  Rather than buying new clothes, people bought clothes from thrift shops, some of which looked like they came from the Victorian Era or Pioneer days.  When the 70s fashion world saw how popular the designs were, they commercialized them.  Now Target, the perfect example of Consumerism, is selling them.
I wonder if anyone will actually wear these?
Crosby, Stills, & Nash captured the whole vibe in Woodstock, where the line “back to garden” comes from.

17 Questions for 17 People
Thanks @its-bianca​ for tagging me in this! Sorry it’s taken so long, we’re in a third lockdown and I’m pretty sure my body thinks that time no longer exists.
Nicknames: Kim, Kimbo, Kimberlim, Kimothy, Kimberley Dibberley (For some reason my family thought that a nickname based off Cat’s other personality from Red Dwarf, Dwayne Dibberley, was funny and it’s stuck with me my whole life), as well as KIIII (shouted by my sister when she was about 2 and couldn’t pronounce my name, my best friend now yells it when she wants my attention) and Kim-Kim by my Dad who refuses to believe I’ve grown up (beats Kimberley Dibberley any day) 
Height: 5'9 - towering over most men is fun, I suggest it to all of you, I’d rather round it up to six foot, but I probs stopped growing at 20.
Hogwarts House: Well I got Gryffindor when I first went on that site, but being my goth self I had to take the test again until I got Slytherin - as far as I remember I had unicorn hair (or horn?) or something of the like in my wand but I’m not gonna fuel JK’s anti-trans pockets by visiting Pottermore ever again. 
Last thing I googled: The soundtrack for Futurama’s Luck of the Fryrish episode, I knew Simple Minds were on it but I could’ve sworn Baker Street by Gerry Rafferty was on it, but apparently not. I spent a good half hour trying to sing it into google with their new song-analysis thing to no avail, so I ended up siphoning through all the songs Lisa Simpson has ever played on her Sax to find out what it was (I should be doing my dissertation proposal but my tutors haven’t got back to me yet so what can ye do).
Song stuck in my head: yknow wha I’m just gonna list the songs that have been stuck in my head so far today because it’s too many to be just one as I keep cycling through them (also gonna link them so you can see how garbo weird my music taste is)
Run - Joji Alive - Pearl Jam Clinging On For Life - The Hoosiers Tension - Avenged Sevenfold  Boots of Spanish Leather - Bob Dylan Nutshell - Alice in Chains Jaded - Aerosmith  The Sea of Tragic Beasts - Fit For an Autopsy 
I’ll add my current favourite at the bottom too for good measure (Honestly I spend way too much time listening to music and I regret nothing)
Number of followers: Currently 85. I’ve got about 2k on my main blog but I’ve not touched that since July 2017.
Amount of sleep: Good lord, so I aim for 8 hours, sometimes I only get 5.5 or something along those lines, other times I depression nap during the day and can’t sleep at all, sometimes (like this morning) I’ll go to get up at a normal person time such as 9am when my body naturally wakes me up, but it’s so dark and gloomy outside and cold in my room that I just stay in bed and end up accidentally falling back asleep. 12pm gang rise up xo 
Lucky number: 7
Dream Job: Hopefully I get somewhat successful in monetising my hobbies, I’m working on it all atm (I don’t know why but I really hate telling people about my plans because I’m deathly afraid they’ll mock me or do whatever they can to ensure it doesn’t happen, I’ve got this list of things I need to do for my own mental health sellotaped to my laptop stand that had things like when to clean the house, do my laundry, shower, exercise etc, and my old flatmate/friend saw it the other week and mocked me, so I haven’t followed it since and need to find some sort of other way of organising my life instead). But yeah, hopefully hobby based, I don’t want to be stuck in an office job all my life, and I want to leave the UK (although I don’t want to leave my family) so hopefully I’ll be successful enough to bring em all with me.
Wearing: Well I was gonna wear jeans and my Unus Annus longsleeve but I decided to go full kitchen witch and wear this black milkmaid looking dress with long sleeves that I’d bought for work when I got my thigh tattoo started (all the old men appreciated the legs but I didn’t make any more tips, oops)
Favourite song: My favourite song of all time would be The Verve’s Bittersweet Symphony , the band formed at my college, has great meaning and has resonated with me since I first saw the music video after it was played at my Stepdad’s funeral in 2002. Weirdly enough on my last day of college, right after my last exam, I went to get the bus home - put my Spotify on shuffle (bearing in mind I’ve got 805 songs on this playlist) and this came on straight away. That’s probably not important to most people, but being pagan, I like to think that small things like these are signs from loved ones that have since passed. Not too happy that it’s used as the England Rugby theme because it gives me anxiety every time as though I feel like everyone hearing it doesn’t have the same emotional connection with the song as I do, but idk. I saw Richard Ashcroft live and he played this and I legit bawled my eyes out in public, safe to say I’ll try and hold it in next time. I suggest you all have a listen to the song or even watch the music video for it, it’s the most simple but most meaningful music video to me. 
Favourite Instrument: I’m left handed and I had this Yamaha acoustic guitar that my stepdad gave me - and taught me to play when I was about 5, a few months before he died (it’s still weird to me that I had no idea he had cancer at that point and instead spent his last few months teaching me his favourite hobbies) all he had was right handed guitars, so he taught me to play Metallica’s Nothing Else Matters upside down on this 20 odd year old right handed acoustic. He hadn’t played upside down himself before but did it so I could see what he was doing. I remember sitting in our green living room on the couch with him moving my hands to the right position (I don’t know where my mum was in this scenario, probably in the kitchen). He’d brought this guitar with him the first day I met him, it was probably like 11pm but I was 4 and thought it was 3am or something, but I heard voices coming from the living room and had gone to investigate - there sat my mum and my stepdad having Chinese on the living room floor, laughing together, my stepdad saw me and had brought sweets for me and my brother for when we woke up, but he beckoned me over, gave me a lollipop, stuck a two litre bottle of tizer in front of me and told me to dip the lollipop in the drink and lick it (not a good idea as I would’ve been bouncing off the walls, but I think I must’ve had a sugar crash and fallen asleep). My mum had no idea he was coming as he’d sneakily been texting her, asking what her favourite drink was, her favourite food and flowers etc, after they met in a pub when my mum was at a hostel with my brother after my Dad had taken me. My mum told him that the council had given her a place and he decided to show up and surprise her with all her favourite things and play guitar for her after my brother and I had gone to bed, I don’t remember much time passing before we’d moved into his house (where my mum and her new husband live to this day), but they got married a few months later and I still can’t play that Metallica song (I did try to teach myself more of it though). I also had this black left handed Ibanez prestige that my Dad got me for Christmas about 9 years ago, I could play quite a lot on it but eventually just stopped. Very good at piano though. 
Aesthetic: I’m not sure what this entails but I’m a sucker for neon/RGB/cityscapes and that type of malarkey. Also space. Love da space.  Also whatever Cornwall would be considered as. Cottagecore? I think that’s only an animal crossing related aesthetic but I’m claiming it nonetheless. 
Favourite Author: I’m a big goth so it has to be Stephen King by default. I’ve got copious first editions of his books from the 70′s and 80′s that my Mum bought when she was a teen. At my flat I’ve got Carrie, Christine, Salem’s Lot, Misery and The Shining first editions and the others are in my room at my Mum’s house. I don’t tend to read for joy like I used to, or write for fun either but I’m hoping I do more in 2021. Currently reading The Outsider by King, it sounds eerily familiar to a novel I wrote for coursework in college in 2014 and I’m half pressed to think he’s stole my brain ideas. I’m watching you Stephen. Always watching. Always. 
Favourite animal sounds: I don’t have favourite sounds, but my husky Nanook is my favourite animal because he’s dumb and I love him. Also Kookaburra sounds are terrifying and you all should go listen to what a koala sounds like. When I go to Adelaide (hopefully this year, if not next) I am NOT stepping foot in a nature reserve unless I’ve got an anti-kookaburra noise suit on. They obviously don’t exist so I’m gonna have to make one.
Random: I’m part of a viking reenactment group where they use actual swords and fight each other, and we have to basically sign our lives away when we join, to say that if we die, it’s not the groups fault. I don’t actually do the fighting though, I’m part of the villager group, so I do all the crafting and food making and most of the teaching when we do shows. I’ve not yet been to a show as I’ve had uni to go to, but my parents, sister and brother do - They stayed within Whitby Abbey last year during the Viking festival where everyone did the show and the adults got drunk round campfires in the castle grounds. Zacky Vengeance once complimented my shirt if that’s something. I’m also colourblind, got glared at by Liam Gallagher in the Liverpool Echo Arena parking lot and have too accurate a sense of smell.
Sorry this was so long, obviously I felt like word-dumping and my brain has a lot to say as I find too much meaning in these things.  Thanks again for tagging me! I’ve not got 17 people to tag as I don’t interact with anyone at the moment but I’ll come back to this and add people as the week progresses :)
