Oh look it's me and some pals fighting the evils of capitalism in an alt universe where they manifest as demons! 😳 One of the suggestions in the book is that a community of radicals could be a church... Now there's a thought. 🤔😉😁

For any #birmingham people looking for some inclusive community this morning, this is today!

(And I am somewhat madly about to drive two hours to be there - sometimes it’s necessary in order to be in a room of people with varied worldviews singing Lean On Me)

I'm at a point professionally where I'd like to know that the people and organisations who want to benefit from my expertise and experience really value my time properly. Because what I'm actually experiencing is a substanital amount of mixed messaging and assumptions about my level of finance.

Everyone should be aware of the line that has been crossed in the Trump trans military EO.

No longer is this about "evidence," "science" or "protecting kids."

Now, explicitly, black and white, it's about trans people being "liars," "dishonorable," "false."

It's a big step towards very bad things.

Fun to binge BBC Sounds podcast series The Cipher today, @georgetakei.bsky.social making a guest appearance was a nice surprise. The theme overall being saving humanity from an impending disaster created by meddling rich guys with boffins working for them... feels like 90 of my feed!

@immykaur.bsky.social feel like I'm ready to get back into the West Mids ecosystem after my return from Northants! Hope to see you at something soon. 👍🏻

Interesting, I'm not in leadership right now but passing it on for those who are.
Hi all, I am conducting a study on responding to climate grief

Participants must be church leaders (lay or ordained), who've experienced climate grief, can attend 4 Zooms in a yr and run a resource in their church

The research was approved by the Ethics Board at the Uni of Chester in July 24 1/2

About the latest SA allegations regarding the author NG and his ex-wife AP. Every time stuff like this comes up it's a lot. Excuse me if I'm not jumping in to give my thoughts I don't want to read those articles, it's a boundary for me right now.

I just found out there's a new Philomena Cunk series coming out next week and my heart is beating in anticipation much like the thumping beat of Belgium dance band Technotronic's 1989 hit single Pump Up The Jam

In case anyone new to my life needs context for my previous post, I dated this guy in the early 2000s, like we broke up nearly 20 years ago. Our break up could have voted in the Genny Lec if it were a person. 😂
Ah my ex has made it here and I know because he's blocked my wife, this is clearly preventative blocking because the guy is a creep so he's just ensuring he can't repeat his awful behaviours, I'm guess I'm grateful but now I need to find a way to block him. 👀

Got a notification I'd been tagged. Just before midnight Christmas Eve, thought a friend might have tagged me in a work thing or a Christmas post. Nope it was this wet blanket which tells me he's been looking at my account.

Due to family Christmas logistics we've been to Cumbria and back today. I'm exhausted. 😴
