had a day like this yesterday (the whole week tbh) & accidentally snapped at a coworker who was jokingly pressuring me to take part in an escape room i didn’t want to. ended up still doing it & when i came back there was a brand new umbrella she had bought to say sorry & cheer me up after another coworker accidentally broke mine 😭 thanks for writing this 💕
This made me shit and cry what the hell, I live all the way across the world from you but it's as though you're narrating my life as I picture yours. This was absolutely gorgeous.
Feel this in my soul, especially on my extra grumpy days. “on a good day I am struck by the beauty in everything, but unfortunately Ricky Gervais is still alive and well within my field of vision.” yes yes yes
I love love love the way you write. The full circle moment when the body spray turns out to be nice made me guffaw. You capture the waves and riptides of life so well. Also also join the LRU like your flatmate said!! https://londonrentersunion.org/join/
There's lots of cool events coming up and we're building the collective power we need to transform the housing system for the better - we need people like you! Even if you don't have it in you to be active at the moment, it's still worth being part of the movement in whatever way.

That is beautifully written. I often feel the same way- thank you for reminding me I’m not the only one.
“Pitiful and incomprehensible demoralization” is possibly my favourite line from the book. Love this piece. “Spoon-fed morsels of serenity” is 👌🏻
This is the most apt account of living in the capitalist hellacape I’ve ever read. Honest honest writing— You have a gift. Thank you !!
