Being told my new music is making people feel things a lot… it’s reigniting my fire

Me: Finding a food I like 🤝 discovering it’s high choline and I can’t eat it anymore

I need to do a column on 'BLM envy' at some point. Ultimately the 'BLM moment' - and that's all it turned out to be quite frankly - a) took ages b) took really weird circumstances to bring about c) not 100 per cent clear that black people ended up in a better place cos of it:

My issue with this family is that their focus is showing off the figures they paid for and *not* following the theme. SOMETIMES YOU GOTTA BE OKAY WITH LOOKING A LIL UGLY TO FOLLOW THE THEME

It's absurd that a podcast about gender affirming care for trans youth failed to include a single interview of a current trans youth. And yet, this was considered pulitzer worthy. They were missing the entire subject of the story. Trans people are always spoken about but never spoken to.

I love how cats just smack the shit out of stuff they don't understand 😂

Sure this may be a little “fork found in kitchen”, but real reports are important. An evidence base is important. Facts are important.

May the fourth be with you. Preorder my book! You can get it in the US here: atthisarts.com/product/ex-p... And in the UK here: www.waterstones.com/book/ex-part... And in the rest of the world… Amazon, I guess?

Lots of errands done over the past few days, even on top of my 9 mile run yesterday. So today was a rest day… So that meant that this morning was outdoor skating and Pokémon with the kid, and my evening was lifting.

This feels like a water makes things wet type headline.

I feel like at some point someone could have written something about how Facebook is now just a swarm of Reform UK bots

To add to this: the girlbossification of bingo app adverts to try and dress it up as not just being gambling makes me sick

We seriously should treat sports betting ads like cigarette ads: ban them.

There are a lot of biographies about Jewish people who grew up in that era that talk about how they joined the local socialist clubs because it was the best place to meet cute boys or girls

Grown ass adults laughing at folks being poor. But ALSO complaining about gas, utilities, their mortgages/rent, and groceries.

We saw 100s of thousands of Black women lose their jobs last year. Calling one "poor" as a reason to distrust them definitely ain't ok. That is a whole separate discussion.

The Academy just made it clear... Performances must be done by real actors w their consent, & screenplays have to be written by humans to qualify for major awards. Al can't replace the people behind the work. It's not a ban on Al... it's a line being drawn on what still counts as human storytelling.

Receiving an auto reply email back from a school saying “we don’t check our emails daily” is actually fucking tilting

Everything Everywhere All at Once and Grogu

finished season 2 of “Shrinking” and holy shit everyone in this show is doing the best work of their lives

New Kneecap album predictably bangs

Funny how this is not on every news channel

Needed a rest day today cos I woke up with the achiest legs in the world. Did a few idle squats with a kettlebell earlier before I got bored, but just did a two minute plank and five pushups and the upper body pump I can FEEL is unreal. I wanna go lift something. Like a car.

History of the USA: - King of England imposes taxes - America declares independence - Things go well for nearly 250 years - America elects a moron - Moron imposes taxes - King of England gets taxes removed

"Is plastic surgery feminist?" boring/shallow/narrow "How do we get to a world with radical body autonomy? " wayyy more useful

Ive had a long day so this might not make sense but to "yes and" this post Im infinitely less interested in the comparative "feminism" of personal choices than the world someone is trying to build.

Every Saturday, thousands of people turn up to parkrun. Not to compete or prove anything, just to move, breathe, and feel part of something. That’s what makes it so powerful. There’s no barrier to being part of a community that finds joy in moving - which is why it matters that it stays inclusive.

The AI problem is an ongoing issue with tech: the average person still thinks a computer is a magic machine. In awe, instead of learning it’s a box of metal and plastic, they insist on going “oh well it definitely knows better than me” instead of observing IT IS A TOOL THAT IS LIMITED BY YOUR INPUT

Former Irish president Michael D Higgins is not rich. He’s down to Earth, a poet, an academic & a scholar. He also demonstrates how politics can be done. He’s incredibly popular* Michael D Higgins returned €2.6 million of pay and allowances to State over 14-year presidency

When I worked on an elderly care ward and got tutted at for having a panic attack and “slowing us down” when I saw my first dead body I was horrified by how desensitised everybody was and I decided I was done with the NHS. I couldn’t become that. It’s why I won’t watch the graphic imagery.

Just piss off, whydontcha

A world full of cis male abusers in power and getting away with grotesque violence - but don’t worry, wealth and media power is focusing on breaking children’s hearts in other ways too

God I hate her and her ilk. She had a viral song on Instagram and TikTok VERY recently and was playing a festival in that same period btw. In no way has her unscientific bigoted rambling hurt her (probs a bit but I wish it was more)

Film you've watched more than six times with gif. hard mode: no star wars, star trek, lotr, dc, marvel, disney, pixar, dreamworks, spielberg, cameron, wachowskis, or ghibli

Kenyans have lost the right to abortion and you’ll never guess who was behind it? White American men from fundamentalist organisations like the ADF. Also working on anti-LGBTQ legislation as the two go hand in hand healthpolicy-watch.news/womens-group....

Guys you’re meant to be satire

Yup. Right up there with “Bounce back body” after pregnancy I fucking despise that shit.

Incorrect I just had a bunch

I have cancelled every single gig I was meant to go to so far this year because life has been trying to beat my ass so hard I physically haven’t been able to do it. I’m speaking it in to existence right now: I will go to that show next week 🧿

I had to have mine redone so many times during labour and deliberately didn’t look every time before it came near me. When I said to my husband “is it really that big?!” he sorta just nodded gravely It straight up cured his fear of needles I think
