I cannot stress this enough, and I am tired of saying it: British white people, everything you are seeing in the US is coming here and you cannot watch Eurovision or Great British Bakeoff or sign petitions and think you can stiff-upper-lip or ignore your way out of this.

Scotland has passed a law that all new buildings must install ‘swift bricks’ which are hollowed out bricks to help nesting swifts and other endangered birds! Swifts are especially endangered because so many chimneys now have chimney caps. Swifts return to the same nesting spot year after year.

The art Discourse really chaps my ass sometimes; like, awesome, I'm glad you had the support to pursue art, and that's why it's so breezy for you to draw your silly little guys.
I don't recognise this "isn't art awesome???" mentality. I hate my work, I hate every single fucking painting.

Finally sorted out remastering this one, and I hope you all like the minor tweaks I've made to it. Hoping I get some time to work on some proper new music this year, but for now these remasters are keeping me marginally less insane
I have remastered the 2023 album Beyond The Dread Plains, an ambient album of haunted/haunting songs.
This new remastered version will be released on Friday March 27 on all your favourite and most hated digital platforms.

We're really proud of the platform we've built at Bold Politics in just four months and whilst we've loved having the hosts of Match of the Day and Loose Women on, it's also important that we share the stories of people without platforms too.

Now very keen to do the obligatory Two Hummingbird Patches on a denim vest for my generation, but then my Native ish takes over and I start trying to add a medallion and my hat and now I just visually look like a Pow-Wow MC in my head.

For the love of all gods, the amount of time I had to be the Black Diaspora Representative in a group of white people slavering expectantly for a Struggle Story...if I had a pound coin for each time, I could buy X back...
Please, please, please, don’t try to engage your Black coworkers in “organic dialogue” about their struggles. That’s a fucking nightmare.
I'm pretty sure I'm right. Most folks learn about other people's struggles through organic dialogue entered into willingly and with trust, and are quite fairly distrustful and offended when their bosses demand such vulnerability at work -- doubly so when they farm it out to contract lecturers

the Epstein files are really devastating because they remind me of how many girls and women miss out on professional opportunities, mentorship and careers because of how many powerful, rich and influential men only view girls and women — and interactions with them — through the lens of sex
