Just read this post written for @folkloricmag.bsky.social and I loved it. Great piece of writing, rooting folklore as a weapon against oppression.
Whether it is the food, the stitching, the dances, the songs, or the stories, Palestinians have never abandoned their roots burrowed deep under the foundations of this new apartheid ethnostate.

Even though I live in another country, I still have a lifetime membership for The Prince Charles. Why? Because it’s one of THE best cinema in the world hands down.
I fear this is the first of many important cultural institutions facing existential threats.

The iconic Prince Charles Cinema in London’s West End future is under serious threat!

@ianmartin.bsky.social’s term ‘Outsouling’ is already a strong contender for 2025’s word of the year.
"Imagine a world in which an A.I. can analyze your reading patterns and alert you that you’re about to buy a book where there’s only a 10 percent chance you’ll get past Page 6..."
Fuck off. That's not empowerment, that's outsourcing your soul. That's outsouling.

🧵🎬🍿 So I just woke up from a dream where I watched a warm, lighthearted movie starring Nigel Farage. It’s about a father, who is also a regular donor to the Edinburgh Museum, trying to reconnect with his wayward daughter who hasn’t spoken to him for years. All set during the Edinburgh Fringe.

When Starmer says ‘AI Superpower’, why do I hear ‘Nuclear Armageddon for Jobs’? I don’t get the feeling he quite has a grip on this. Just seems desperate to try to send a message that Labour can deliver ‘growth’. But it doesn’t feel convincing. All that comes to mind is the closure of the coalmines.

I guess whoever wrote this never watched The Flying Circus to understand that they truly are surreal absurdists at their core. This ending is brilliant, it comes as a mad surprise that breaks the form of the film (although it was cleverly seeded in throughout the plot.) Plus, they ran out of money.
Monty Python & the Holy Grail is an absolute classic film. However, it has one of the shittest endings in film history. "Modern police arrive, arrest everyone, then 10 mins of lift music before the lights come up" is a literal cop-out.
