Hello, I’m a video producer and editor, based in Manchester. This year I’m taking a slight diversion into academia, in film research and experimental film. Happy to meet you all 👋
I absolutely hate this kind of opinion. Nobody is owed access to anyone else’s body.
We do not need to supply men with sex to as a means to prevent their violence. Mens problem with violence is not women’s responsibility to solve.
This view is just the same misogyny in a different hat
We’ve been taught to believe that the menace to society was the fraternity alpha male. It isn’t. Society is being subjected to the sociopathy of a bunch of tech CEOs who, in my view, did not get laid enough as young men.

This Radio 4 today interview with Angela rayner is so irritatingly stupid - what a time for the presenter to try to force a gotcha - BBC yet again prioritising the chase for clickbait, I miss proper strategic journalism

They may have locked us out, but we will not go away quietly. We will do everything in our power to ensure that education funding continues to support our students—NOT Trump's billionaire cronies.

If they stopped calling it DEI and renamed the programmes what they are, Anti-racism Education - would Trump still be banning it all? (Sadly the answer is yes isn’t it)

I know lot of people love this podcast butI I’m glad to see some scruitny happening. When you have that many subs there is a duty of care to do basic fact checking. the idea that Bartlett doesnt realise that is disingenuous, he knows it’s unethical.

Yeah but what if he wasn’t killed for the reasons of noble vengeance, and it’s just some business rival who wants the job for themselves or something

Goodbye Barbara, and thanks for A Woman of Substance which is a brilliant epic and has entertained me many times, I absolutely love the mini series with Jenny Seagrove.

I thought it was quite unusual that the local rugby club ground was named after a Scottish darts player.

Turns out, they named it after a former club chairman who was nicknamed Jocky Wilson.

In my mind, they both share the honours.

This is a gif I made of my favourite moment in the 2005 documentary Dart Players Wives directed by Andy Humphries

I think this is Caroline Sams, married to Lionel ‘the lion’ Sams, while she’s at a hen doo in Vegas, she becomes momentarily overwhelmed at the shooting range
