I think we've found where the Conservative voters of Brixton congregate. It's a small wine and cheese bar down a side street. I guess everyone needs their own habitat and it stops them bothering the rest of us. There's not many of them in our borough, an endangered species.

I linked it deep in another thread, so people are just now discovering this old green onion cereal thread. It's wild. Enjoy!

Some good news

if you're cis and you are asked by your management to police bathrooms, "can you confirm in writing that you are ordering me to approach customers to discuss their sex?" is an email no manager wants to reply to

EHRC Guidance released: Our statement

I've just written to my MP to express my concern about the toilet ban for trans people. It's very easy to find contact details on this link and remember there is no such thing as a safe seat any more so they may be more inclined to listen to you members.parliament.uk/members/Comm...

You can get contact details for your MP here members.parliament.uk/members/Comm...

I know it’s exhausting to do this endlessly but do write to your Labour MP opposing Labour’s bathroom ban. The party does this because it thinks it’s making the problem go away.

For 20 years, Eid on the Square has brought people of all backgrounds together to celebrate the contribution of Muslim Londoners. Now it's back in the heart of the capital on Saturday 30 May to mark Eid al-Adha. Enjoy a packed day of entertainment for the whole family.

Not even a third of the way into the application period and already easily the highest quality portfolios/submissions I've encountered, which I'm delighted by (and can't wait to see all yet to come). Love putting new names on my shortlist!

Also worth checking if your meds increase sun sensitivity - surprisingly common and best to be cautious about.

What your well-dressed comics professor wears on last day of finals for Superhero class, which we had the best time start to a grand finish!! This has been buried in my closet for a decade or so, made from the great Norm Breyfogle’s classic cover to detective 587 in 1988!

London’s Jewish communities are an integral part of our city’s fabric. Now, the first-ever Jewish Culture Month is officially underway. It’s the perfect opportunity for Londoners and visitors of all backgrounds to experience the incredible vibrancy of Jewish culture.

Ok I've designed an LLM prompt to make Google AI just give you a list of links. It's longer than you might think because it kept ignoring the instructions. This is efficient. This is The Future™

packing up tarot decks to send out today, you have an hour to get your order in for this week's post!

If there's a green energy project planned near you, it's often worth speaking out in support, if you're so inclined - since it tends to be only the grumpiest, time-rich vested interests who get in touch / reply to consultations etc.

World a bit much? Get you a tomato plant to fuss over that will hopefully yield snacks in a few months.

Great British Energy (GBE) has marked its first year as the UK's publicly owned clean energy company, by announcing the location of a further 49 community energy projects "Over the last year, through GBE funding, 225 schools & colleges, & 162 NHS sites in England have completed solar installations"

Painfully true.

I know I’ve been on about this all weekend, and I’ll stop now, but this needs to be published in translation, so if you know a good publisher in your language, go hassle them about it, okay?

If the actor with British accent is evil then you’re watching Sci fi. If the actor with a British accent is good then it’s Fantasy. If the actor with a British accent knocks something over then it’s a Rom com.

Somehow it's only just occurred to me how important food is in Brixton. Yes I know there are probably hundreds of restaurants, cafes and so on but when you see people of all ages and backgrounds queuing right down the high street for a new Korean street food place it says something about the area.

It’s Saturday, and have I got a treat for you! Most of the cats I post aren’t famous, but today, we have a celebrity: Maiko, the life and soul of Lemoni bookstore on Irakleidon. #CatsOfAthens #cat #cats #Caturday

The Workers was born from protest - against the closure of a local library for the people of #Ynyshir. And now it’s a cultural centre for the community - and so much more. Come on #Rhondda, let's raise the roof and have a right good time on the 29th! www.workersgallery.co.uk/event-detail...

Today, the Thames gets its first official bathing spot. A milestone - not a finish line. The fight to restore London's waterways continues.

If you'd like to buy Noisy Valley directly from the gallery that inspired it, you can do so here with a special "Rhondda bundle" that includes greetings cards inspired by the Rhondda land and streetscapes, from the gallery's resident artist Gayle Rogers: www.workersgallery.co.uk/product-page...

3GW is absolutely massive. 🥳

Alexei has got some new moves. This is brilliant.

It took 2 years to make our graphic novel and it’s publishing in 3 months. Pre-orders determine how a book will do, so we’re a little bit nervous as this is an important book for us. Wilomina: The Land of Dreams and Nightmares out Aug 13 @scholasticuk.bsky.social Pre-order: linktr.ee/wilomina
