If you're a non-trans woman in UK, who doesn't think banning trans ppl from toilets helps with *any* of the issues currently facing women (e.g. attempts to prosecute women who have had miscarriages for suspected illegal abortions) you might want to read and sign this petition:

Not in our name: Women in support of the trans+ community
Can you spare a minute to help this campaign?

Shout-out to the woman in the pub who asked for a bottle of wine, and when the waitress brought it to the table and asked how many glasses were needed, laughed and said she only used the one.
Madam, I salute you🍷

I vividly remember 'chocolate concrete' served at school in Birmingham in the 1970s/80s. So hard it had to sit in custard for several minutes before you could get your spoon through it.

My favourite genres are:

1) Beardy men with swords take absolutely no shit

2) Affectionate bickering

3) Baddie finally discovers a tiny shred of decency; kind-hearted hero can be startlingly ruthless

4) Overlooked side character steps up and does something awesome

5) Things get tense on a boat

I was reminded today that there are things I love and thoroughly enjoy which some other people - thoughtful, smart, good-hearted people - detest with a passion. And probably vice versa.
And at the end of the day it really doesn't matter. There should be room enough for all of us.

Former PM John Major pulling no punches in his interview with Jim Naughtie on R4 this lunchtime. A clear-eyed assessment of just how dangerous the current international political situation is re the US and Ukraine, and how people need to step up.

I'm glad LOTR:The Rings of Power has got a third season. It's not perfect - at one point I was distracted pondering just how long it would actually take a dwarf to walk from Khazad-dum to Eregion and back again - but then what is?

I'm part way through LOTR:The Rings of Power series 2, and now the possibility of Captain Elendil being lined up to be given one of the nine rings is starting to worry me...

In the 1970s, the Royal Navy created a canal fleet consisting of narrow boats designed to resemble a County-class destroyer, a Type 42 destroyer, a Leander-class frigate, and a Resolution-class sub. The fleet toured England as part of a recruiting campaign.

Once upon a time, when Twitter wasn’t utterly toxic (about eleven years ago) I tweeted for a volunteer knitter for a community WWI film project. The tweet went viral, and in an hour I had 400 volunteers and wool donated. Completely unexpected and joyous. #fashionhistory 1/

Yesterday we watched Personal Shopper on the Great Movies channel. Kristin Stewart's character went to a hotel room and heard someone moving about in the bathroom, and just as she was about to see who it was, it annoyingly cut to an ad break -

A bit about me - I am a costume historian and Costumier for Crow’s Eye Productions. We have been making dress history films for YouTube for six years, and we have had 106 million views plus. We also make museum films and have just completed a series of dress history films for Bloomsbury.

Doing a little experiment #scriptsky.

I'm curious to get a rough feel for how many #screenwriters:
1 ) just moved here;
2) returned to dormant accounts;
3) were already active posters here.
If you could like /repost this and reply with the number that *best* describes you, I'd appreciate it.
