I do think CS Lewis was on to something when he wrote about the lure of being in the Inner Ring. (“Of all the passions, the passion for the Inner Ring is most skillful in making a man who is not yet a very bad man do very bad things”)

Blessed Imbolc, which roughly comes from I mbolg, meaning in the stomach, ie when sheep carry their young. It's the first of the 8 Irish seasons and it begins with Bridget's day.

If you enjoyed Winter Burrow OR Afterlove EP in the last 12 months, please do go and leave them a review. Both teams are wonderful people who deserve the love, and you’d be surprised how little makes it through
Small, free act you can do to bring some good in this world: add positive reviews to ALL you Steam games, especially the small indies. You don't need to write anything smart, just "game good" is enough. Every positive steam review tips the algorithm and helps your fav artists get more sales

in all this chat about Grok and explicit AI images etc, and Musk and banning the tech, we should also remember that the people who use this tech to do such things are also creepy weirdos and should be made to feel like creepy weirdos.

In the UK soldiers lifted people of the street and raided houses, busting the door and dragging kids from their beds. I know this because I was one of those children held shaking with cold and barefoot at gun point while other armed men emptied the contents of my mother’s hot press onto the floor.
One more, I am begging English commentators and journalists to remember what the UK did in Northern Ireland.
Of course what's occurring in the US could happen in the UK! It already fecking did.
