Last month I heard from a friend “I don’t do Gaza” and I still think about that moment
It’s the latter that has taken me by surprise. It reminds me of that advert encouraging voting in the early 2000s where the line was “I don’t do politics”… only this time the lightbulb moment won’t be the cost of a packet of fags

My God. This broke my heart
My grandfather died five years ago tomorrow and my mom texted to remind me that some of his last words were “I think it’s gonna be Bernie.” May we all live to our 90s and go out thinking better days are coming

Ah yes, partition. That famously peaceful event where half of my family was *not* massacred on the trains.

the orange of sodium lamps. porch lights on rural roads. seeing parties & gatherings through open curtains from the street. getting a really good idea & actually being able to follow through on it. the way old pianos smell. the zen exhaustion you get after swimming in the ocean for a couple of hours
Fuck your complaints. What’s something you love?

I keep opening this app up to post, but all I want to say is “it is SO much nicer here”, like someone just rescued from the compound of a religious cult. I might just keep posting that until the trauma wears off

a social media site is not where your life lives nor the work of it, it’s a game you play on your phone. the worst people in the world want you believe it’s the former, and have become richer and more powerful by selling that lie. you don’t have to live on their terms.
If there is ONE silver sliver of lining about this nightmare, it's that I hope a lot more of us finally realize that:

a) posting IS exhausting and absolutely fucks up your nervous system

b) it's the absolute worst & least effective way to engage in politics

Twitter really is awful isn’t it? I’m finally giving up and arriving here shivering, covered in a tinfoil blanket, and muttering incomprehensibly…

Spent the summer yelling at Jonny Lee Miller. Can recommend.

Thanks to the Almeida Theatre for letting me shout in the evenings for money.
