Changing borders by force is a horrific post-second world war precedent. Fuck Trump, Vance and Putin. And Netanyahu. Stop dreaming about and stealing land you absolute scum.

A Safe Place

Well that was quite the Edinburgh Fringe this year. Saw an incredible puppet show- The Life and Times of Michael K, a brilliant stand up comedy about chronic illness, a murder mystery musical, orchestral jazz, and more. Congrats to the performers who've earned a much needed hermit.
