There is still time (just about) to buy #ValentinesDay gifts if that's your sort of thing. Here are some companies who support my site and are nice and sell good stuff.

A fabulous and timely guest blog this week from @bright_helpings - sex in the time of fascism ❤️

Here, I got you a present. It’s a special container where you can keep all your precious critique of other people’s bodies.

This is NOT A DRILL: new season of #Gladiators has a real life hot priest. She is heavily tattooed, absolutely STACKED, and I only know this cos she’s wearing vestments with the arms torn off.

“My motto in life is ‘Jesus shows his mercy’, but in Gladiators I’m gonna be showing none.”

Pls crush me. 💦

"When people treat your love like it is cheap, worthless trash, it’s easy to fall into the trap of believing that *you* are trash too. But you aren't."

This time last year, I encouraged men of London to up their game.

“Just because there are no *romantic* feelings, doesn’t mean that I have no feelings at all.”

NEW blog, ‘casual’ sex doesn’t mean you get to treat the other person with contempt.

I see racists are doing "did you know X% of kids in Glasgow/London/Birmingham don't have English as a first language!?" bullshit again.

BILINGUAL. The word you're looking for to smack them down is 'bilingual'. Most children who 'don't have English as a first language' have two languages. Sometimes more! Why do you hate this? It's fucking beautiful!

Can't remember what, probably 'do you have a Nectar card?' or sthing. The lady was quite old, and wearing niqab, so he couldn't see her face, but she just tilted her head to the side like she didn't understand and this kid immediately switched language and asked again.

Another head tilt.

And he asked again, this time in a new language.

She got it, and chatted back to him.

Blew my mind, honestly. This kid who was working a shift in Sainsbury's was just CASUALLY TRILINGUAL.

One of the things that made me fall in love with London was a visit to Sainsbury's in Whitechapel a couple of weeks after I'd arrived. I always swore I'd leave London quickly - it was dirty and smelly and busy and stressful. But I grew to love it pretty quickly, not least because when you have so many people in one place, people suddenly become endlessly fascinating.

Anyway. Sainsbury's.

A lad was scanning a lady's shopping through the checkout, got to the end and asked her something. 🧵

As someone who'd grown up in a place with very little immigration, then spent a couple of years abroad struggling to learn as much of the language as I could to get by, it absolutely floored me that I now lived in a city where people working the checkout in Sainsbury's could casually switch languages just to make it easier for an old lady to get her Nectar points or whatever.

What an astonishingly beautiful thing.

What a gift!

CN: rape

The more often we tell these stories the harder it is for stealthing rapists to pretend it was all a mistake.

Pls admire the most #London photo I’ve ever taken.

I don't hate men, but the guys in my comment section are doing their best to change that.

Give them an inch and they'll take our humanity.

Today’s post is about the pleasure of being slowly, rhythmically stroked. Over...

And over...

And over…

Fully in love with @stuart_cb’s art on this one - it brings an extra horny/evocative dimension that the words couldn’t conjure alone.

It enrages me that the #OnlineSafetyAct means I can't give UK people free audio any more, but if you're in the UK use code OSA for a massive discount (and do it before Dec 1st if you'd like a card - https://www.girlonthenet.com/blog/2025-christmas-cards/)

If you're in the UK and you're blind or need audio for other accessibility reasons, drop me an email hellogirlonthenet at gmail dotcom.

When you have just dropped the most terrible pun in the group chat and you're gleefully staring at your phone to see what emojis you get.

It wasn't just one person - multiple people in my life knew what he had done, and therefore knew that his continued presence was extremely harmful to me. And they didn't tell me. One of my closest friends actively lied to cover for what he'd done.

As someone who prizes honesty and friendship above almost everything else, this fully wrecked me. I went pretty mad. In hindsight some of the things I did - and blogged about - were the actions of someone extremely unwell.
