Exams Are Driving Me Crazy, and Shall Drive You Crazy Too

I’m supposed to be revising for tomorrow’s Physics exam (annihilation FTW) but I miss polluting you guys’ computer screens with stupidity, so without further ado… “Well played, Daily Mail, well played” via @ThePoke (Roxy). Cool friends, huh. I’ve changed my mind regarding the world’s stupidest RS question. It’s now a tie between “Christians should never… Continue reading

Old school internet (but with better loading times).

Francesca Astraea here.

When I began this blog in 2009, I was a teenager. That’s why you’ll find some posts have been hidden behind a paywall. I was an incredibly different, less eloquent person when I was a teen, so if you want to read the thoughts of that teenager, you can join the No. 1 Readers’ Club for access.

What will you find here now?

This blog continues to evolve with me. My favourite topics are books and reading, travel adventures, the extensive works of up and coming rock band My Chemical Romance and the occasional update about my life and work as an author and scriptwriter. I’m also interested in digital minimalism, how we can solve environmental issues and why it’s probably a better idea to make a cup of tea than it is to shout at people you disagree with.

Speaking of tea… Make a cup and settle in.

Leave a comment on posts to continue the conversation and tell me your favourite MCR song! Oh, and while you’re here: this is a no-gen-AI household. You may not put any of my posts through an LLM. If you’re going to email me or write a comment, do it yourself.

Here’s how we can stay in touch:
