Big old lefty. Non-Binary, AuDHD, general purpose nerd. Two of those I only figured out when I hit my forties.

Last Notes npub1j0gaves36qhle6uc5mvexzppyvmd493zcd2wnreq2dhejvq5f0vstq228f Troggie Aww it’s been 9 years since I got Doris, my baby grand. I loved that piano. We were finally in a place large enough to fit an actual piano and though I wasn’t looking specifically for a baby grand, I found her and I could hardly say no. npub1j0gaves36qhle6uc5mvexzppyvmd493zcd2wnreq2dhejvq5f0vstq228f Troggie Somehow, every time I’m in Southampton I forget how fucking awful accessibility is. Around Pride / The Civic Centre itself isn’t too bad but so few of the pavements around town have dropped curbs. Then added fuckery with inconsiderate construction and scaffolding. Absolute nightmare getting back to the car. npub1j0gaves36qhle6uc5mvexzppyvmd493zcd2wnreq2dhejvq5f0vstq228f Troggie Saw this on a local notice board earlier… small builder?? npub1j0gaves36qhle6uc5mvexzppyvmd493zcd2wnreq2dhejvq5f0vstq228f Troggie Today is “There Will Come Soft Rains” day. A short story by Ray Bradbury, first published in 1950. npub1j0gaves36qhle6uc5mvexzppyvmd493zcd2wnreq2dhejvq5f0vstq228f Troggie This is not the greatest pale ale in the world. npub1j0gaves36qhle6uc5mvexzppyvmd493zcd2wnreq2dhejvq5f0vstq228f Troggie Just in case it helps anyone, sitting in front of a fan with soaking wet hair provides a lot of relief. npub1j0gaves36qhle6uc5mvexzppyvmd493zcd2wnreq2dhejvq5f0vstq228f Troggie Book nook is all finished and on the shelf. npub1j0gaves36qhle6uc5mvexzppyvmd493zcd2wnreq2dhejvq5f0vstq228f Troggie Can I reach any other afab non-binary folks who’ve gone through / are going through menopause? npub1j0gaves36qhle6uc5mvexzppyvmd493zcd2wnreq2dhejvq5f0vstq228f Troggie Good morning Fediverse. npub1j0gaves36qhle6uc5mvexzppyvmd493zcd2wnreq2dhejvq5f0vstq228f Troggie I love having Aussies on my feed. When I see things like this first thing in the morning - npub1j0gaves36qhle6uc5mvexzppyvmd493zcd2wnreq2dhejvq5f0vstq228f Troggie @nprofile…ryua Hampshire UK, so it is in Europe. npub1j0gaves36qhle6uc5mvexzppyvmd493zcd2wnreq2dhejvq5f0vstq228f Troggie @nprofile…ryua Hillier Gardens in Hampshire. npub1j0gaves36qhle6uc5mvexzppyvmd493zcd2wnreq2dhejvq5f0vstq228f Troggie #SilentSunday npub1j0gaves36qhle6uc5mvexzppyvmd493zcd2wnreq2dhejvq5f0vstq228f Troggie My Dad would’ve been 82 today. npub1j0gaves36qhle6uc5mvexzppyvmd493zcd2wnreq2dhejvq5f0vstq228f Troggie I thought I saw a hanging figure in the last one. npub1j0gaves36qhle6uc5mvexzppyvmd493zcd2wnreq2dhejvq5f0vstq228f Troggie We went to look at Netley Abbey this afternoon. I do like a good ruin. npub1j0gaves36qhle6uc5mvexzppyvmd493zcd2wnreq2dhejvq5f0vstq228f Troggie **Found it - https://neal.fun/infinite-craft/ npub1j0gaves36qhle6uc5mvexzppyvmd493zcd2wnreq2dhejvq5f0vstq228f Troggie Milo would like you to appreciate his fancy feather boa. npub1j0gaves36qhle6uc5mvexzppyvmd493zcd2wnreq2dhejvq5f0vstq228f Troggie I’ve always wanted to have a tour of a pipe organ and have a go on one and I’ve just discovered that the Royal College of Organists did a whole series of events in 2025 for people to do exactly this… and I MISSED IT. npub1j0gaves36qhle6uc5mvexzppyvmd493zcd2wnreq2dhejvq5f0vstq228f Troggie Visited Winchester Christmas Market this afternoon. It was very busy and crowded but mostly nice to just see the pretty lights and have a massively overpriced but very tasty sausage roll. npub1j0gaves36qhle6uc5mvexzppyvmd493zcd2wnreq2dhejvq5f0vstq228f Troggie #ADHD Pro tip: npub1j0gaves36qhle6uc5mvexzppyvmd493zcd2wnreq2dhejvq5f0vstq228f Troggie Isn’t it weird that Amazon used to just be an online bookstore? npub1j0gaves36qhle6uc5mvexzppyvmd493zcd2wnreq2dhejvq5f0vstq228f Troggie I can’t believe it’s been 15 years since this video. I was living in Bristol at the time and took the early morning bus into London to spend the whole day with a bunch of strangers, some of whom I knew online and Mitch Benn. npub1j0gaves36qhle6uc5mvexzppyvmd493zcd2wnreq2dhejvq5f0vstq228f Troggie Don’t fucking talk to me, you’re a cupboard. npub1j0gaves36qhle6uc5mvexzppyvmd493zcd2wnreq2dhejvq5f0vstq228f Troggie Made a thing because it tickled me. npub1j0gaves36qhle6uc5mvexzppyvmd493zcd2wnreq2dhejvq5f0vstq228f Troggie Thanks for all the suggestions so far! I’m just going to add and clarify a couple of things. npub1j0gaves36qhle6uc5mvexzppyvmd493zcd2wnreq2dhejvq5f0vstq228f Troggie Can anyone suggest a wheelchair bag large enough for say a carton of milk and a loaf of bread that DOESN’T attach to the back of the chair? npub1j0gaves36qhle6uc5mvexzppyvmd493zcd2wnreq2dhejvq5f0vstq228f Troggie It’s Southampton #Pride this weekend and I thought I was sorted - I had a dress being delivered tomorrow/wednesday. npub1j0gaves36qhle6uc5mvexzppyvmd493zcd2wnreq2dhejvq5f0vstq228f Troggie Don’t forget to actually drink. npub1j0gaves36qhle6uc5mvexzppyvmd493zcd2wnreq2dhejvq5f0vstq228f Troggie The sign. npub1j0gaves36qhle6uc5mvexzppyvmd493zcd2wnreq2dhejvq5f0vstq228f Troggie Worse than god botherers: an estate agent leafleting lackey nearly deposited rubbish through my door just now. Then he saw my sign. npub1j0gaves36qhle6uc5mvexzppyvmd493zcd2wnreq2dhejvq5f0vstq228f Troggie The local bbc news is running a story about missing ponies having been found and they are using the weirdest photo. npub1j0gaves36qhle6uc5mvexzppyvmd493zcd2wnreq2dhejvq5f0vstq228f Troggie This is an extreme long shot but I don't suppose anyone somewhere near Southampton has a stage piano or similar I could borrow for a couple of hours on Wednesday? Having been trying to get hold of them for a week, the crematorium have just finally told me they only have "an electric organ" available for the MIL's funeral I am supposed to be playing/singing at. npub1j0gaves36qhle6uc5mvexzppyvmd493zcd2wnreq2dhejvq5f0vstq228f Troggie When your local water provider says you’re not allowed to keep your pretty garden flowers alive but billionaire companies can continue consuming whole reservoirs to cool their fucking AI habit, there’s something up with that… npub1j0gaves36qhle6uc5mvexzppyvmd493zcd2wnreq2dhejvq5f0vstq228f Troggie @nprofile…f2hw I did read the notes and I don’t disagree with this sentiment but those bloody rental bikes and scooters left on pavements are a royal pain in the ass to wheelchair users. They’re not the most significant problem for anyone who can walk around them easily or pick them up out of the way. npub1j0gaves36qhle6uc5mvexzppyvmd493zcd2wnreq2dhejvq5f0vstq228f Troggie The thing is, pre-cut veg *is* for lazy people. Laziness isn’t a crime. It’s also convenient for busy parents and folks working long hours. npub1j0gaves36qhle6uc5mvexzppyvmd493zcd2wnreq2dhejvq5f0vstq228f Troggie I used to think packaged pre-cut veg at the supermarket was for lazy people. npub1j0gaves36qhle6uc5mvexzppyvmd493zcd2wnreq2dhejvq5f0vstq228f Troggie Isn’t it weird that throughout this whole benefits cuts row they’ve bleated out the same rhetoric about “helping disabled people into work” npub1j0gaves36qhle6uc5mvexzppyvmd493zcd2wnreq2dhejvq5f0vstq228f Troggie Day 2 of my Day Lily! npub1j0gaves36qhle6uc5mvexzppyvmd493zcd2wnreq2dhejvq5f0vstq228f Troggie Do you own something cheap, old but inexplicably still functional? npub1j0gaves36qhle6uc5mvexzppyvmd493zcd2wnreq2dhejvq5f0vstq228f Troggie The face of a criminal who just stole a bit of chicken from next door’s barbecue. npub1j0gaves36qhle6uc5mvexzppyvmd493zcd2wnreq2dhejvq5f0vstq228f Troggie I’m still bemused by the fact that none of the French team seemed to notice how this shot would look. npub1j0gaves36qhle6uc5mvexzppyvmd493zcd2wnreq2dhejvq5f0vstq228f Troggie African daisies are looking particularly resplendent this morning.
