Ooh… this is a long time coming! I’m very pleased to announce I’m touring the UK next year with @paulavarjack and her show ‘Nine Sixteenths’! I’m movement director and performer… the last time I toured was eight years ago with my own show… I’m very excited!

Anyone else thinking of the meeting between Matt Murdoch and Wilson Fisk in Daredevil S2 when watching the real life meeting between Mayor-elect Mamdani and Orange Satan today?… no?… no one at all?… not even when they both virtually said ‘I love New York, it’s my city’… no?… Just me then… cool…

Audition alert! To work with @paulavarjack.bsky.social on their show Nine Sixteenths which is going on tour next year. Full details are here: paulavarjack.com/9-16ths/cast...

OTD: is the 60th anniversary of the UK’s Race Relation Act 1965, which received its Royal Assent. The Actbbanned racial discrimination in public places, and made the promotion of hatred based on ethnicity, religion, colour or nationality an offence… www.parliament.uk/about/living...

Imma leave this here…

I heartily endorse… do check out the lecture 🤩

😱 We’re pausing the next round of Developing Your Creative Practice (DYCP), until April 2026 and using this year’s remaining DYCP budget to immediately launch a ringfenced £7.5 million Research and Development (R&D) fund within National Lottery Project Grants (NLPG). www.artscouncil.org.uk/dycp

OK, this is a direct message to Americans… for all that is in the universe, put an end to your war-mongering, deadly insecure man baby you have as FOTUS, he who loves gold trinkets & protects, pardons & surrounds himself with all kinds of nefarious ‘yes’ people, end it now… before he kills us all…

Wait… the 5 year old in chief posted an AI generated ‘vid’ of himself dumping shit on the American electorate but used an ACTUAL LIVE PERSON specifically as the first person to be shat on? The President of the United States, the top man in the US, actually did this What’s the electorate thinking?

😂🤣😂 T*ump is looking like a chump right about now! He was supposed to be speaking at 9am UK time… and he still hasn’t spoken. In the meantime, the parliament along with N*tanyahu are doing an f ton of grandstanding & self congratulation peppered with platitudes to T*ump to keep him sweet…!

I have to say it The caucasity of Orange Satan… the war mongering, anti-Black, anti-trans, anti-Muslim, misogynistic, sexual deviant in chief, who actually felt entitled to the Nobel Peace Prize… what does this revenge baiting toddler think peace is? Can’t wait to see his 5 yr old temper tantrum…

Sharing this… the moment Nobel Peace Prize 2025 winner Maria Corina Machado found out, minutes before it was announced, that she is to receive the Prize… www.threads.com/@nobelprize/...

“Man who appealed Pelicot rape conviction handed longer jail term” Good. POS. He like all the other men need to rot in hell for what they’ve done. Playing victim & forcing a replay of the trial just to claim he’s innocent is a particularly heinous & disgusting thing to do… he needs a longer term…

It’s amazing just how quickly yt men in power ‘suddenly’ need to speak to the ‘populist’ voter… it’s almost like there’s something that they have In common that I can’t qwhite out my finger on…

Wait… wut?… what??… WHAT??? From Associated Press: “Hegseth said he is loosening disciplinary rules and weakening hazing protections, putting a heavy focus on removing many of the guardrails the military had put in place after numerous scandals and investigations… 1/2

I’ve just watched this amazing doc… it’s the usual story… a march about ‘concerns’ that although it could be said not everyone there was a racist, for sure there were racists there who felt at home to extol their views… yep… the tide is turning back to the 1970s for sure… youtu.be/ez1cn8d28_8?...

Watching how known and proven racists are being received and given massive platforms to throw up their rhetoric of hatred all over the British public, without question or consequence is EXACTLY how we will follow the US into fascism. It’s f*cking depressing.

Just leaving this here…

Back on this mortal coil, I’ve come to realise that Orange Satan had a couple of mishaps at the UN… an escalator suddenly switched off as he stepped on it and the teleprompter stopped working just as he gave his ‘address’ to the UN (read moanfest). His team are claiming sabotage…

Check in: It’s Tuesday 23rd September, 3:41am and two days after Earth Wind and Fire day… I’ve just woken up and found I’m still here 👋🏾 IYKYK

Sooo… for all those expecting to be raptured tomorrow… what time will the event happen? Is it dependent on what time zone the country is in? Will it be across the full 24 hours in the day? Will it be one person at a time, or like all in one go? I’d like to get ahead of it and plan accordingly…

Damn… it’s a good job I don’t suffer from motion sickness cos this rickety ass train is moving about so much I look like I’m convulsing…

With the UK currently hosting him at Windsor Castle, Orange Satan aka Cankles McTaco Tits aka Kanks has made it known that he didn’t want the UK’s Mayor of London Sadiq Khan, knighted by the King of England, and democratically elected public British official at the King’s state banquet… Huh…

I’ll er… I’ll try asking this again…

Space Karen having put Orange Satan in place, obvs to his own financial benefit, now sets his sights on the UK. His ‘address’ to Tommy Ten Names’ ‘protest’ over the weekend was a clear call to incite violence & overthrow elected Gov using OS’s insurrection speech. I agree with Ed Davey here…

So… Racists trundle around the streets screaming NF chants yet ‘they don’t have freedom of speech’ as police look on… then go on the inevitable rampage fighting with the same police who were protecting them moments before And the response? The UK is officially in its ‘strongly worded letter’ era.

I honestly don’t know how many times I need to say this… frankly I’m now getting pissed off… so maybe if I say this in caps, people will heed what I’m saying. DO NOT CONTACT ME VIA SOCIAL MEDIA INC. WHATSAPP. Contact me via my website it’s literally on my profile! Email. Please. FFS.

Senator John Kennedy said wut now???? With a picture of a xenomorph as a presentation on the senate floor??… “It’ll kill you, even if it doesn't turn you into the alien – if you eat this stuff, I guarantee you'll grow an extra ear.” 🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣 He did that! www.independent.co.uk/news/world/a...

So apparently Lush has closed its entire UK business down for one day… online and all physical stores are shut for today… the below messages are on their website.

I really hope that all Americans have the same heat for Orange Satan and his behaviour over the E*stein Files as they do for Piotr Szczerek, the CEO who snatched a hat off a child at the US Open… They’ve practically shut down his company & forced an apology from him… so, on to the White House then?

OK… so is everyone ready to say the US is now under a fascist dictatorship? Or are we still pretending that their government believes in the rule of law and democracy?

Cankles McTaco Tits (aka Orange Satan) said what now??? He said what? What??…

Micheal Crawford has been named as a Kennedy Centre 2025 honeree by Orange Satan who installed himself after a coup as chairman of the centre and also host for this event… a man who is racist, xenophobic, transphobic and is definitely a dictator… Has Micheal Crawford accepted this ‘honor’?? WTF???

Me, just trying to live my life and having to deal with other people’s shit… *sigh…

I now know for a fact that the UK theatre crowd ain’t posting on Bluesky. Because if they were, and involved in the subsidised arts, there would be far more uproar on Bluesky over ACE closing its funding portal until mid-Sept… one thing they don’t mess with is money! 🤣

With all the corruption, job losses, BS tariffs, gerrymandering etc going on… plus the fact he still won’t release the Epstein Files because… well… no one exactly knows why… all in the first SIX months of government…

Kevin Sorbo and Dean Cain can both get in the bin… that’s kinda a match made in hell… they deserve each other…

Huh. Interesting… Because of the problems that have arisen on Grantium since 23rd July, ACE has paused all Project Grants until at the very least mid-Sept on under £30K. Over that is estimated to be the end of the month… yet I’ve not seen any activity on Theatre Sky (here) to indicate people know

We commemorate and celebrate Emancipation Day. Here in Barbados, there will be a day of events to mark the past and to look to the present and the future. True emancipation is physical, mental, and spiritual, and we pray for the continued liberation from any form of slavery in our world.

Today, 1 August is Emancipation Day, the day when in 1834 enslavement was ‘abolished’ across the British Empire… it took a further 4 years in 1838 for ‘full freedom’. It’s also a reminder that whilst the former slave owners were given ‘compensation’ by the British government

Nope! 🤣 I’m good… Everyone can email me

South Park… IYKYK

Yep… miss me with the Bluesky ‘verification process’ that means I have to give a CREDIT CARD and/or have my FACE SCANNED to verify my age… I have not lived on this Blue Marble 5 decades+ only to give my private info to lord knows who and for what? Social media?! Nah. I’ll go unverified thanks.

Oh nooo… Orange Satan’s name is in the Epstein Files… I’m shocked I tell you… I am shook - said absolutely NO ONE. In other news, I’ve been watching paint dry…

Looking at my time over the years and this post on what was Twitter… and remembering me gearing up for the Edinburgh Fringe. Yep, I was in British Vogue!

Wait… so now on top of any usual visa fees, you now have to pay a $250 ‘visa integrity’ fee that you may or may not get back just to enter the USA?… It won’t affect me cos I won’t be going but for anyone out there thinking to go, take heed.

Just seen that most of my fav profiles literally haven't posted in the best case a month, in the worst 9 months... Kinda guessing Bluesky ain't it...

Interested in collaborating with producers and writers on a short/ feature. Based in the UK, but happy to work internationally for a good story! Here are some stills from the last short I directed … Photography by Dan Ollderhead 📸

If anyone would like my first zine, Transporter, I thought they were sold out then found some in our product box from when we do our little pop up shop, and of those there's maybe 5, so it's not worth putting them back online but I do have some and they're £8 so just get in touch.

Hi folks, happy to say these are now with me. If you'd like to buy one they're £10 including UK second class postage. If you're not in the UK get in touch via my site to let me know where you are and I'll work it out for you. All details and how to pay: www.mariegardiner.co.uk/zines-and-pr...
