Do you read Sutter Cane?

Every day we stray further from God's light.

Normally I have no problems with what people get up to in their own bedrooms but this is just too much: www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

At 4pm on Saturday the 7th, BBC Radio 4 Extra are re-broadcast my adaptation of Iain M. Banks’ ‘The State of the Art’ starring the late Sir Antony Sher as the ship. So pleased that’s going to be out there again.

Spanish PM Pedro Sánchez on Iran: “Spain is against this disaster. Because we understand that governments are here to improve people's lives, to provide solutions to problems, not to make people's lives worse. 1/2

I have injected myself with the Mounjaro pen that was in the fridge and which you were probably saving for your return from Dubai

“Fuck every cause that ends in murder and children crying.” Iain Banks.

You never got this kind of cosmology with Carl Sagan.

Eraserhead.

What could possibly go wrong?

The Supreme Court:

@cstross.bsky.social For your office door perhaps?

Prince Andrew being arrested for giving away state secrets but not arrested for being a pedophile should tell you everything you need to know about Britain.

Can't, I have a note from my mum.

Not our first date, but for our first trip to the cinema I took Mrs C. to see "Pulp Fiction". She thought it was hilarious, especially the scene where Mia is given the adrenaline injection. (That's nurses for you.)

Just checking, it's now ok to flee your homeland, because you're afraid for your safety, and seek refuge in another Country? Glad we've cleared that up. Let's hear no more about immigration and refugees then.

You may laugh, but the Macbeths are a much better role model for a marriage than Romeo and Juliet. They discuss their problems (killing the king of Scotland), share their hobbies (killing the king of Scotland), and resolve their conflicts (by killing the king of Scotland).

Are you still collecting these, @cstross.bsky.social ?

I heard there was a Cohen song And all the gentiles got it wrong But you don’t really know the lyrics do ya? Cause mostly it’s about getting laid And sex and love and Jewish faith But all the Christians heard was “Hallelujah”

A few days ago, I stood in the graveyard of an 1100 year old church, getting damper and damper in the drizzling rain. A woman walked into the graveyard, waved, said hello, and, as we had previously arranged, handed me a paper bag full of human bones. The life of a churchwarden is a strange one...

Fuck this garbage. Think of all the talented artists in Glasgow who you could have chosen from to get a payday from this gig instead of the money being handed over to a slop merchant.

A joke for the history buffs.

The Government is planning to send King Charles to the US to celebrate with Trump. Giving him a royal visit right now sends a terrible message that his behaviour is acceptable. We can stop this if enough of us speak up. Will you add your name to the petition? you.38degrees.org.uk/petitions/ca...

Evergreen post.

With his horrible views on immigration and a clear desire to normalise right wing talking points, how do we know Jenrick isn't going to defect to Labour?

This is an extract of the speech made by Rob Hirschfeld, Bishop of the Episcopal Diocese of New Hampshire, at a vigil for Renee Good. It is extraordinary, and you should read the whole thing: www.nhepiscopal.org/blog

the grateful dead is one of the great symbols of american freedom. not the semblance of freedom enshrined in the bill of rights that can be stripped away by the state, but true freedom that can be taken by no one—to explore and express one's mind, body, and soul uninhibited, to fly your freak flag.

The role of VP is to deter potential assassins by showing what you would get if you succeed.
