Keith Haring died of AIDS aged 31 on 16 Feb 1990.
One of his last works, Unfinished Painting, was deliberately incomplete, reflecting the devastating, unquantifiable loss to the arts due to AIDS.

Had a handful of homophobic/transphobic messages here today because I’ve created a Starter Pack supporting LGBTQIA+ writers.

Please follow and share this pack to help keep Bluesky the positive place it promises to be.

If you bring central London to a halt in order to campaign against catastrophic climate change then you're a "barmy" eco "fanatic" who deserves to be locked up.

If you do the same to hang on to your multimillion pound inheritance tax exemption then you're a brave freedom fighter defying the odds

Woefully behind on my Reading Challenge- a target of 65 (as part of a bet) and only just at 40. I think I have read 2.7 books a week to make it 😬😬😬

First film of LFF2023- and it was really good. Beautifully performed and filmed with a cracking soundtrack, it’s a film that will haunt you for a while
