Your regular reminder that when speaking about young people, "innocence" is merely a fanciful euphemism for "ignorance". "We want to preserve children's innocence" usually means "we want to keep teenagers ignorant".

It's International Long Covid awareness day! For many people Covid is now seen as 'just a cold' but for millions of us it's a chronic, life-limiting condition, and frankly, a pain in the arse (head, legs, lungs etc). One thing you can do to make a difference: wear a mask in public when you are sick.

very grateful to The Quietus for publishing this essay- on everyday fascism and the promise and problem of “beauty” as an inadequate but therapeutic response to the ugliness of the present - plus there are some thoughts on disco and Patricia Highsmith- this felt like a risk but I’m glad it’s out

RIP Claudia Cardinale. Much like Robert Redford, she was a rare case of a beautiful performer with a filmography full of bangers who did NOT become right-wing later in life. Here she is punching fascist Brigitte Bardot in the face in Les Pétroleuses (1971).

‘A sense of anarchy and misrule’: the osses, warring oaks and lobbed sprouts of Penzance’s Montol festival

Some buildings cast a haunted shadow. In their umbra a remberance of fear. For every castle ruin the tourist board tries to sell as romantic ruin there stands a tower which was terror warden. We live in a landscape ghosted by old violence, a landscape of psychic bruises. –

National Trust types! It's AGM time, do vote for the suggested candidates & block the right-wing, 'anti-woke', mysteriously-funded Restore Trust, who are against eg rewilding and discussing colonial history / LGBT+ heritage (last week my sister saw OOTW in an NT shop, would it be if they had power?)

How much will it take for people to give up Sp*tify? First they JUST ripped off artists, then they REALLY ripped off independent artists & flooded the playlists with their own AI nonsense, then we found out they funded weapons, now ICE ads… you can’t say you weren’t warned they might be baddies
