In case you missed it... some of my favorite climate fiction novels, for the NYT Book Review. No Ministry of Future as is riddled thru with errors + no The Road because I found it boring monotone. No Overstory because it seemed like an "author discovers trees" novel. www.nytimes.com/2025/07/07/b...

One of the problems of post-industrial capitalist societies is how to generate sufficient knowledge and expertise to produce profits without letting that knowledge overflow into critical thinking that could disrupt the system--the ruling class sees AI as a solution to that problem.

Dear Mr. Clegg

I have started a business, selling the contents of your house

I knew when I launched I did not have legal access your house

Without this access my company will not be profitable

Others have told me I have a flawed business model, but I disagree

Please advise how I should proceed

✨️NEW POST✨️

My latest blog post discusses the complex story of Emma Davies, who was at the centre of 'The Shropshire Hoax' in 1883. Though not a traditional ghost story, I believe her story is important.

"I worry what the world will be like for my sons. The left has no political projects and Europe’s been in stasis for decades. I always thought the fall of the USSR would reopen a lot of conflict that had been dormant for 40 years, and so it’s proved"

‘Ah Pook the destroyer is here’
After listening to the news over the past couple of days I found myself digging out Phillip Hunt’s 31 year old stop motion take on William Burroughs & John Cale’s Dead City Radio…

Labour's simplemindedness will be its downfall - and ours. You can't build and bulldoze your way out of the housing crisis. Unless you also change the system, you'll still leave millions without decent homes. My column today explains why.

Home truths: the only thing Labour is building is a bigger, more dysfunctional housing market | George Monbiot
Private developers offer politicians a simple solution for bulldozing through this crisis – build more. But it won’t work, says Guardian columnist George Monbiot

Curse of private equity.

Price of veterinary care hiked.

UK vet/pet services controlled by large companies, prices up 50% since 2015, pet vaccination cost doubled.

Competition watchdog said people overcharged, Govt sacked iCEO, as such sentiments are not conductive to 'growth'.
