'When your symptoms are treated one at a time, in isolation, without anyone looking at you as a whole person... you are a category of problem rather than a person with a problem. That your suffering has an asterisk next to it.' My brother on addiction, shame, and the gaps it grows in. x

"As I went walking I saw a sign there, And on the sign it said "No Trespassing." But on the other side it didn't say nothing. That side was made for you and me." Wody Guthrie #Trees #photography #art #eastcoastkin #shotonfairphone #ClassicMono

Hard to know which is more shocking - the dire warnings of the potential collapse of our food system in the UK or the fact that governments have tried to cover it up. Their complacency is off the scale. We urgently need to switch to growing more food domestically & to restore nature now

Very unpleasant work, but we need to do it.

"Never underestimate the sheer force of an addict. I found in art the freedom I was looking for in intoxication." Amy Liptrot I'been sober for three and a half years, and in that time art has poured out of me. It's no coincidence. This is a great read. amyliptrot.substack.com/p/fifteen-ye...

“Whoever controls communications technology controls the boundaries of free expression.” ‘Infrastructure is politics’ - always has been always will be - and @ianbetteridge.com’s essay decoding contemporary policies is essential reading. www.ianbetteridge.com/the-freedom-...

Good thread on what we lost. NB: The Norwegian national wealth fund, that supports their unrivaled standard of living, is currently worth over one and half trillion pounds. Ours could have been bigger.

Do respond to this survey if you’re in the UK. The BBC is in a sorry state and strengthening it is imperative for a healthy democracy, particularly given the terrible media ecosystem of dangerously skewed national newspapers

In this current harsh world, let's warm a few hearts remembering the events of 7-8 March 1991, when the 90,000 people of Brindisi woke up to find 25,000 Albanians roaming the streets of their town. For perspective, that's roughly equivalent to 25k people suddenly landing in Hastings [Thread] >> 1

Tasty food for thought by Martha that challenges some of my AI resistance. Why are we happy to have no democratic control? Who decides & enforces the guardrails? Shouldn't those things come before we make policies to 'give' those AI corporations access ot all of us? substack.com/home/post/p-...

“Is there a technology the left is excited about?” High-speed rail! MRNA vaccines! New cancer treatments! Solar and wind energy collection! Better and longer-range EVs! That wood that's harder than steel! New apples! Fibermaxxing! Buldak Swicy ramen! Muppets! Muppets are too a technology, shut up!

AI solving climate change is such bull. We know many ways to prevent climate change TODAY, we've just chosen not to bother. Why would AI telling us new ideas make any difference?

As @dirtmeetsthewater.bsky.social says, why not head down the camino via Greyhound… #nonfiction #memoir #travel #criticism #greyhound #psychogeography

If you're interested in books that explore "the overlap between place and memory" and how we are shaped by the psychogeography of countries that aren't 'ours' then this will be right up your camino.

300 characters are not enough for any kind of book review, but it is enough to say that Greyhound by @joannapocock.bsky.social is a really special kind of memoir and you should buy it! uk.bookshop.org/p/books/grey...
