Generally quiet, interested in too many things. This weekend is when I’ll finally catch up. No, really.

I will reiterate that if you are an independent journo/hobbyist I will happily set up your ghost install and host it for a few quid above cost price.

You set up your own stripe and mailgun accounts, and you get to keep ALL your revenue.

And post migration from wordpress/substack is pretty easy.
If there is one resolution I want for journalists this year: it is to get off S*bstack and use Ghost or any other indy publishing platform that does not fund literal nazis instead.

If you enjoy artistic shorts, this channel is all about woodworking, with an emphasis on joinery. It's beautiful.

If you yourself are a woodworker, you'll spend a lot of time shouting "OH THAT FUCKER!" at the simple but incredibly sophisticated techniques.

In a world dominated by AI & disinformation, I expect we will see a major pendulum swing culturally. People will crave authenticity and reality over deep fakes and conspiracist lies

I'm here for it, sharing #RealArchaeology

Honestly, you'd think these dumb racists would understand that the whole point of swearing on a holy book is that swearing by a god you believe in is meant to inspire you to keep the oath. Like surely it would be worse for a Muslim to swear one on a book they think is just some book

Every time someone says "I can't write X, editors will never buy it" an angel loses its wings

Those shining adamantine feathers, sharper than death, slice all creatures in their path to molecule-thin ribbons, blood raining down onto acres of land rendered poisonous for decades.

So maybe reconsider

The land has been year-walked. The future has been met in the lanes and ways. The cunning folk have conferred. On the doors of The Raven, The Woodwose's Crown and all the other pubs they use, the proclamation has gone up: 'This is the YEAR OF THE GREEN PATHS.'

Don't think of trauma recovery as a bunch of sh*t you "have" to do. That's a recipe to activate those "trapped" & "controlled" triggers.

Think of recovery as a collection of tools that exist for you to use, as you see fit, to protect what you value from your bullies & abusers.

BREAKING: This is huge news, the EU's equivalent of the 🇺🇸Supreme Court's 2015 Obergefell v. Hodges ruling.

🇪🇺Court of Justice just ruled all 🇪🇺countries must recognise same-sex marriages granted in other member states.

This effectively legalises gay marriage across 🇪🇺

It's an easy commitment to make. One, it supports individual humans with money. Two, the work is better because there's an actual brain behind it that understands the context of the thing it's working on. Three, me making it a contract point makes it easier for other authors/writers to do the same.
I’m truly delighted to hear that it is part of your contract that all work on your books (art, editing, translation, etc.) must be done by humans. I greatly admire this commitment
