Terrifying prospect given the image is shown as from a train moving at top speed.

Terrible news about his death. Fair to say I had long burned a candle for the lovely and brilliant Anthony Head, and he came on Front Row back in 2017 to discuss his career from the coffee ads to Buffy and more. www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/b...

What happens when communities are empowered to run things themselves? You get places like Newquay Community Orchard, combining environmental education, mental health support, and training in one space. Great to see @noahlawmp.bsky.social raising their vital work in Parliament.

A ceasefire in Ukraine that is poorly defined could provide Russia with an opportunity to rearm, while enabling the Kremlin to continue exerting pressure on Ukraine.

This is an amazing report - globaljusticeproject.wid.world/www-site/upl... (Via @english.lemonde.fr) We desperately need more of this kind of vision and constructive hope.

I was reading the newspaper headlines this morning, and saw several saying that the police officers had been "under pressure after diversity training" or some such. Which is nonsense. Someone tells you they've been stabbed, you ask where. It's pure (in)competence.

Charities Mencap, Mind and the National Autistic Society warn this could lead to “the biggest rollback of disability rights in a generation”. I am questioning the government on how it plans to respond nataliebennett.org/2026/06/03/d...

The experience of watching any nature documentary is basically going ‘aww’ and then thirty seconds later going ‘oh no’ in a constant loop

The Rebellion! exhibition on protest is now open at Newcastle City Library and will be there until the end of August. There’s a great cafe next to the exhibition and the zine can be bought in the shop on the floor below.

Aaargh! Conversation on #R4Today about university and it's *all* about money and career with no element of what universities are *for*! People! Education is a good in and of itself! (Though for that reason, we should be sharing the cost socially, but that's another matter.) Arrrgghh!

#UBI is one of those things where you can see why “give people ’free’ money” might seem too expensive to the general public, but *every time* a test run has been done, it’s turned out to be cost effective - for governments, that is; but not for big businesses, so of course it doesn’t go ahead.

What’s good, ya’ll? Here’s something 🤎 Dr Iman Abuzeid looked at a broken healthcare hiring system & built a billion-dollar company that flipped it upside down. She built a platform where hospitals apply to nurses instead of nurses applying to hospitals. That’s not DEI. That’s Black excellence.

Here is a very very very small frog I found.

I'm starting to have Things in my diary. Actual Things.

Glory be to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Ghost:

Google had perfected something to the point that its brand name became a common verb and then they decided, wait, let's fuck that up completely.

@nickebs.bsky.social Thank you for selling your book DRM-free, btw. It means I can read it on my digital notebook as an epub, not in Kindle. 🙏

The past year has been Quite Shit, but the thing about lying broken on the side of the road is that a surprising number of people do stop and get out the oil and bandages. I'm not saying I'd *choose* the former to experience the latter, but there's a lesson in it, none the less.

Great piece

Except London water is manky and bubbles are nice. Maybe London restaurants should be forced to have Vimto on hand to take the taste away.

The problem with intentionally drinking your tea cold, is that you go through your tea stocks a lot faster.

Alright Den, we’ve all had hangovers, there’s no need to make a song and dance about it.

I'm currently reading @theosthinktank.bsky.social's publication about cathedrals and it's really excellent. Theos, don't ever leave us!

This is a piece of beautiful genius.

YOU’RE LISTENING TO SISYPHUS FM, THE HOME OF NON-STOP ROCK

Off subject: Reference the Mystery Hour podcast Thursday May the 28th and the enquiry about the sequence of words Jerry and Tom and Hardy and Laurel ... this clipping from six years ago "one of the unwritten rules of English native speakers". Wish I had listened live. I would have 'phoned in.

This is really bad

I do sometimes worry that all the worried headscratching about youth unemployment might be missing the point. Everyone is always talking about how it relates to the education or welfare systems, no one wants to say "well the economy just produces far fewer entry level jobs than it once did"

"... loss, insecurity, confidence and hope are all primordial human experiences, as well as formidable social forces. ... The question is not whether we should go back. We all do, both individually and collectively. The question is how, and for what," writes Sasha Mudd for @prospectmagazine.co.uk
