We must not become less of ourselves in the face of annihilation. We must hold to who we are, hold tight to our joys. i came into this world dead, grey and silent. I shall go out of strange, full of love and wondrous curiosity. I shall go a fully-grown changeling with a kiss of intent on my lips.

I was walking down a pavement somewhere in a dream last night and @vimtotime.bsky.social passed me going the other way down the road on a penny farthing

The train window is one of the best cinema screens It forces us to stitch together narratives from the briefest glimpse. In a blurred moment whole stories race into us. We see a track and know it is older than the line we travel. We see a track and all of its treading ghosts wave to us. – #DAKilroy

Being able to live your life in blithe indifference to politics is a sign that you are at the very tippy top of structural power, to the point you can only see the blissful 360 view and not any of the structure holding you up.

So you think what the Greens are offering is quixotic, unrealistic, even extremist. What do you intend to put forward that will give people the same kind of hope and energy? Because you don't seem to think you have any obligation to do that. But if you have no ideas, you should get out of the way.

I'm sorry this is just such a fucking appalling government. A bunch of petty disgusting bigots. Fuck them all.

Making my silly little jokes so I do not break down crying about these absolute bigots. No problem getting in bed with sex trafficking billionaires, but someone needs to put a stop to trans kids just existing. Cool cool cool.

The wonderful snowdrops at St Raphael’s chapel at Huccaby today. Built in 1868 as a combined chapel and schoolroom, it was a school during the week, the desks are now used as pews. The church shed is pictured here. #Dartmoor, #Devon. #snowdrops #photography

Without naming your job, tell me something you say over and over again at work. "No really, don't apologise, I've seen a *lot* of feet."

Sorry, I can't come into the office because my cat would be sad.

This, from Lemm Sissay’s collection ‘Listener’, is a masterclass in pace and rhythm and rhyme. It is a read it out loud kind of poem. It is playful, funny, poignant, and deep all at the same time. #poetry #poemoftheday

New episode of Monstrosities Mon Amour. See the National Theatre through the eyes of an archaeologist: @reblambert.bsky.social explains how it’s like a henge. Also her love for Dolph Lundgren’s Masters of the Universe! johngrindrod.substack.com/p/monstrosit...

This hit so fucking hard today.

This isn't good at all @forteantimes.bsky.social My interests align with the contents of your publication, but I won't be engaging with it if you're joining in with the media siege of trans people.

Made it up to the remains of Laughter Hole Farm from Bellever today. Every time I go there it seems to be have regressed further into the surrounding dense. lichen-clad woodland. Even the steel security fence around the farm buildings is now being colonised! #Dartmoor

Everything reminds me of him...

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.'

Sending love to you all, whatever kind of day you've had 💛✨

Spooner's career as a continuity announcer was short-lived

and here are two Hookland Otters [Lutra Lutra Hooklandii] in the Field of Prophecy, with some water lillies. I do think they look rather content... 🤍🐾🌿 Please note that these are two different linocuts, not just one presented in mirror image 🌘

This entire weekend
