Hi. So I’m landing here properly…
You will see me posting more and more here in the months to come. ❤️
Whilst working on a project in a club recently with Aref Durvesh, a friend handed me his sitar and l used my guitar knowledge to have a go :)
I thought I’d post this first. 🙏🏾🔥

It’s around 4am… I rarely get a decent night’s sleep these days. Which is probably unwise as I had a heart attack last year. Yet sleeping comfortably seems to normalise a global reality born of Orwellian nightmares, where villains are lionised and victims vilified. I will be awake till dawn… again.

I prefer my taxes to be spent on saving lives and not killing vulnerable children. Hospitals and #nhs over arms and destruction abroad. Any country that has an issue with that that can go to hell. Please like if you agree. Thanks. 🙏🏾

All you gullible, smug folk wearing your “anti-woke” views as a badge of honour because you feel oppressed when you’re not allowed to be openly hateful towards vulnerable people… remember you’re just one fascist bigot’s whim away from the wrong side of the wall… yep. Even you.

Had a wonderful time last night at the @bafta.org nominees party :) Met the very cool fellow nominees in my category… I’m nominated for my score for a stunning wildlife documentary film called “Tiger”. I’ll be at the awards ceremony for tv arts and crafts this coming Sunday. 🙏🏾💫

I don’t really care what nationality or religion anyone is. There can never be any justification to slaughter a single child, let alone thousands. Anyone who thinks otherwise is either a monster or has been brainwashed and conditioned. Compassion is all we have over AI. Otherwise we are nothing.

If you support a disgusting racist and misogynistic felon like the great orange clown then you have no values, no integrity and little or no capacity for rational thought. The fact that he was democratically chosen is an indictment of a country not of his opposition.
Likewise for child-killers.

The Nazi technocrat’s algorithms are pushing “Tah-me!!” posts demanding freedom for the incarcerated repeat offending criminal to spread more racist bile. Marching en masse through London like brain dead zombies won’t change the English legal system to appease oligarchs surprisingly…

The world is now run by an international cartel of Hollywood movie villains posing as legitimate leaders. If it wasn’t so real the writer would be sacked, no studio would back the producers and they’d only cast bitter old men with delusions of grandeur stuck in bad hair time loops.

When the world is spinning further into darkness, hate and despair we should walk towards light, compassion and hope. There is no “woke mind virus”… Only incessant propaganda designed to pollute impressionable hearts for the empowerment of greedy narcissists and oligarchs. It’s simply exhausting.

So glad to hear @nitinsawhney.bsky.social ‘s voice on here. Impossibly difficult times ahead, watching events unfold with a deeply visceral sense of unease - the facts are not even hiding in plain sight and we ignore it at our peril.
To those saying they want context for his two back to back Nazi salutes, here are two facts - one for each salute…
1. His maternal grandparents were literally in the Canadian Nazi party according to his own father.
2. He supports the German AfD.
Both facts easily verifiable online.
🤷🏾♂️
