My name is Freddie.

I am Romani, Disabled, LGBTQ, and speak my mind. I don’t expect my words to always be popular. I don’t expect people to agree with everything I have to say. But I ask those that leave comments to create civil discourse. This is my corner of the internet. And I won’t tolerate hatred.

This used to be a day of hell – my sperm donor’s birthdayDecember 29, 2022
Just over 17 and a half years ago you kicked me out for being gay. You spread rumours amongst friends and family that we both know not to be true.

2022 – Turning 40 and all that entailsDecember 17, 2022
2022 – the year I turned 40. The year I outlived doctor’s expectations by 35 years. I could sit here and tell you how this year was nothing like I expected. It wouldn’t be a lie.

There are a string of words that could be used to describe me, that I myself use to describe me, which people automatically assume are bad. That society has deemed as bad. That when I use them, people rush to correct me. But why? They are descriptors. Nothing more. And honestly with at least oneContinue reading “Not a bad word”
Friends with a “cult mastermind”November 22, 2022
Picture the scene, it’s a cold and windy day in Milton Keynes in 2010. I’m with a group of friends at a convention and freezing my ass off so much I keep dropping my walking stick. But we have paid money to be there. There are guests we want to meet and we will meetContinue reading “Friends with a “cult mastermind””
