So much to protest against at the moment, so many people polticised for perhaps the first time. So I'll recommend a book by my friend Dr Lynne Jones, child psychiatrist, WHO and UNICEF consultant. It's about her decades of non-violent activism. I met her during the siege of Sarajevo. Inspiring.

What a spectacular crest of cloud heading our way #N16 #Stokey #Storm

Having scraping & sanding jobs to do, I downloaded the audio of @robcowen.bsky.social’s The North Road when I first saw @robmacfarlane.bsky.social’s recommendation. Stuff happened, but today I began. Instantly bewitched, heading off on a journey I already love. Thank you both

Make it stop. No Peace Prize for someone who has the power to stop this and who plays golf instead

I think The Armando Iannucci Shows is one of the greatest forgotten comedies. What has stuck with me more than anything for nearly 25 years is the idea that everyone - except you - is getting secret help with the right things to say.

Well, here’s something to chew over …

A new immersive audio experience is launching at Orford Ness this weekend. Using geolocated sound, the new production, created by theatre company HighTide, weaves in fragments of Robert Macfarlane’s poem, Ness, takes visitors on a sonic journey through the landscape.

Harriet Tubman #quilt by my Mom, Vera P. Hall, who makes quilts celebrating Black people who fought for their own freedom. This seems to be the crowd favorite of the “We Didn’t Wait for Freedom” series. Happy #Juneteenth #quilting

Mazraoui believes cutting out fizzy drinks helps him reach no-sugar high at United

These peonies were a gift for my birthday these ten days back and still they stretch out their beauty

OK, this is wild. In September 2023, geophysicists across the world started monitoring a very odd signal coming from the ground under them. It was picked up in the Arctic. And Antarctica. It was detected everywhere, every 90 seconds, as regular as a metronome, for *nine days*. What the HELL? 1/

Here comes the rain! Wish my photo was better - it was so beautiful and dramatic. Perfectly dry where I was standing, but not for long

Mass protests happening now. Join a protest near you. #3E #HandsOff #TeslaShutDown #FiftyFiftyOne theblop.org

My favourite tree from the streets around where we live … Will take another shot to show how it reaches out over the pavement, bringing delight as you nip to the High Street shops or rush to the bus stop #Stokey #Hackney

Morning!

Simultaneously, brilliant and depressing …

Le Pen's ban from running for office is neither an attack on democracy nor a boon for the far-right. It is a move by an independent judiciary to uphold the rule of law, protect the public from political corruption, and shore up French liberal democracy. My latest for @heraldscotland.bsky.social:

The mountains and their waters are all made of myth
