RIP Tony Harrison

He was kind enough to let me use this poem in my Texture book - one of several of his that invariably make readers cry, specifically at exactly two and a half lines from the end

Great new songs from Yonezu, for the latest 'Chainsaw Man' movie. 'Iris Out' and 'Jane Doe.' He is such a talented singer song writer. #IrisOut #JaneDoe #Yonezu

Just watched 'Suzume no Tojimari' wonderful. A magical film to honor those lost in 2011, and those left behind. As someone who was in Kanto at the time, boy it resonated. I bawled. Exquisite music by 'Radwimps' too.

GOOD NEWS! Researchers at the University of Florida have developed a UNIVERSAL vaccine that dramatically BOOSTS the immune system’s ability to fight tumors- even WITHOUT targeting a SPECIFIC cancer type. It has the potential to do away with chemotherapy, surgery AND radiation treatment.

We are outraged and deeply distressed that armed federal agents came onto our campus—making arrests on the very ground where, in 1942, Japanese American families were forced to board buses bound for concentration camps. It was a deliberate act of provocation and intimidation.

Loving the series 'Glass Heart' on Netflix. Lots of good actors. Supposedly they learnt to play the instruments for over a year!
