Nerd Church - 39
(Warning: this post discusses human trafficking, modern slavery, racism, anti-immigrant sentiment, and the tragic deaths of 39 immigrants)
For those of you outside the UK, who may not know, 39 immigrants were found dead this week in a lorry in Essex.
They were probably Vietnamese, but the details are still a bit fuzzy..

Friday Fics Fix - HP Halloween: The Ones Who Won't Grow Old
Warning: this post talks about war and related trauma
'Even in the summer, it was cold here. Once, Ginny had been used to it, spending most of the year here, but now it was more of a distant memory.'
This is the last week of HP Halloween!
Yes, November is fast-approaching, which means our month-long Harry Potter fanfiction fest is over.

Nerd Church - Have A Little Consideration! (...And Treat Your Neighbours Right)
I think that some people - not everyone, but some people - need to re-evaluate their common decency, and the consideration that they may or may not have for the people around them.
Because sometimes, people do sh** that ain't a lot to them, but is, in fact, a big deal to other people.

They're lovely dogs. Adorable af.
But they like to chase cats. And I have cats.

Month in Review(s) - September 2019
September!
(This wrap-up isn't late, it's casually timed ๐)
September was cool.
I had another cold, but that's pretty much my life tbh.
I also had my birthday! Woo! Birthday!
Although, I did have a few mixed feelings this year...
