Wincing at details of a choppy 20s then lol at "Torn". From v good Joy is My Middle Name by Sasha Debevec-McKenney via @fitzcarraldoeds.bsky.social

Such an interesting excavation in this book and very strong stylist. Brava @lamornaash.bsky.social Totally engrossing and brain poking distinctive.

A report on Palestinian children who've had limbs amputated. Israel is a terrorist state.

I am one of the 14 authors who chose to leave the Polari Prize, and I find myself frustrated and saddened at the way this entire story has been represented. 1/

Lisa Nandy this morning: "Our message to the Palestinian people is very very clear, there is hope on the horizon" The horizon.

‘A YouGov poll in June showed that 55 per cent of British people oppose Israel’s actions in Gaza, while only 15 per cent support them. A full 45 per cent believe Israel’s actions amount to a genocide of the Palestinian people.’ Huw Lemmey on Palestine Action: www.lrb.co.uk/the-paper/v4...

Can't fault the clarity of Labour's message on protest. There are BAD protesters who must be punished (Irish musicians, anti-genocide vicars) and there are GOOD protesters whose views deserve respect (masked thugs with petrol bombs trying to start a pogrom)

Israel has murdered a classroom full of Palestinian children every single day for the last 22 months. And of course the actual number of children killed is much higher.

For my new Statesman col this week I wrote about care homes & interviewed an anthropologist who spent a year living in one. www.newstatesman.com/culture/life... @newstatesman.com

Stop starving Gaza; stop arming Israel; end the genocide

I’m currently a long way from Cornwall but I *am* by the sea, and enjoying this by @lamornaash.bsky.social very much - beautiful, unique and fascinating. I’m sad to have nearly finished it. PS many thanks to @onlyindevon.co.uk for the recommendation 🙏

For my @newstatesman.com col I spoke to some teenagers about love, and they were as funny and insightful as I’d hoped!

Out with the Quakers, out with all those beautiful people from my city and beyond, calling for an end to the genocide and freedom for Palestine

A beautiful conversation on the beauty and wonder of the Christian faith, which some are finding surprising. Gave me goosebumps at points. Thank you to the Bishop of Newcastle, @bijanomrani.bsky.social, @shahidhabari.bsky.social and @lamornaash.bsky.social www.bbc.co.uk/sounds/play/...

My atheism flavoured my enjoyment of @lamornaash.bsky.social’s fresh and idealistic piece today about Iona: www.theguardian.com/books/2025/a...

The Supreme Court sided with For Women Scotland. Not one trans person was heard. Every intervening org was openly transphobic. This ruling sets a dangerous precedent and erases trans women from protections. It’s disgusting! To our trans sibling, we won’t stop fighting for you and your rights 🏳️‍⚧️

Nothing I love more than a city Museum, partic Liverpool - the extraordinary model of a mega, never-realised Catholic Cathedral, which would have been completed circa 2100, life-size reconstruction of a Liverpool Overhead Railway carriage & birds speculating over which of them was the og Liver bird
