Three cool scientists introduce their work "Our new theory has been submitted to a peer-reviewed journal, but we feel its depths and intricacies are best appreciated on the limited-edition vinyl release."

I suspect the government is going to get another crash course in the law of unintended consequences when pushing through overly restrictive knee-jerk policies without properly considering implications, especially, but not limited to, students with higher support needs.

Definitely worth a watch since Robert Ames is conducting.
There's a fine line between comfort clutter and depression squalor and boy do I walk that line like Johnny everloving Cash
Ironically the BBC stumbled on a really important story: Desperate asylum seekers being forced to turn to fraudulent fee-charging “advisors” to navigate a system that is intentionally impossibly baroque and from which all sources of free advice have been removed.
But no: they chose Fake Gay Panic.

Sorry I can't be there, I'm working front of house at Symphony Hall and Town Hall today.
I guess you'll be taking a train to Kings Heath? The line opened last week so it's 13 minutes from the Heath to New Street 😀
That'll be me...

In 2010 I went to Northampton with gentleman Dave Ma to meet Alan Moore, for a cover feature for Stool Pigeon and a big feature for theQuietus [ln1k in thared].
Dave just sent me these photos which I wanted to share because... well, you would, wouldn't you?
Moore was a fantastic host... 1/?
You know folks so well.
Cis people: just nip over to your GP to feel a little perkier by taking some T.
Trans people: just spend 5 years on a waiting list, go through a few psychiatric assessments, and if you survive that then you might get a prescription for exactly the same HRT.
This kind of thing at Substack (including their Nazi problem and trans hate problem) are why my newsletter is at Ghost.org and always has been. Andrew Tate is a spectacularly vile human being accused of numerous violent crimes against women and hugely corrosive for young male minds.

Bunnies in a raft pull up next to a spaceship capsule, which has just splashed down and is floating in the open sea. Visible in the capsule, two bunnies wave at the ones in the boat.

I'm one of those trans women. I worked ground ops for Artemis I.
I am torn between celebrating the success of my friends and peers and grieving how my dream of working for NASA was shattered by hateful assholes in Tallahassee
A very astute (and upsetting!) piece that touches on four scary cultural trends: 1) The demand for spelled-out moral clarity in stories 2) A growing inability to understand different types of narratives 3) The "customer's always right" version of fandom 4) The growth of fandom as a social identity.
The platform indicator at the freshly reopened Kings Heath train station showing 4 carriages and arrival times at Moseley Village and Birmingham New Street stations. Every sign tells you how many steps to the platform and the hearing system is very clearly marked.
My first time on the reopened Kings Heath station. 2 minutes to Moseley Record Fair 😂
What's your mantra?

Saturday at the Hare and Hounds for me.

A poster by Bird and Moon for Flap dot org. In a comic-style format, a bird explains for humans that window collisions kill billions of birds worldwide each year. Birds don't really get windows, and instead see a safe space past the glass, reflected outdoor plants, a reflected rival bird (themselves), or outdoor plants viewed through transparent corner windows. What can you do? There are cheap, easy, attractive fixes. Create a visual barrier for birds to see using window tape for vertical lines, string or ribbon hanging down, decals, or window film. Put these on the outside of the window, spaced 2 inches or 5 centimeters apart or less. You can also make window strikes less deadly. Keep bird feeders and baths close to windows. One point five feet or a half-metre away or closer. You can also u screens on the outside of windows. To learn more visit FLAP dot org. Thank you, bird hero.
It's the start of National Wildlife Week in Canada and the start of spring migration, so it's the perfect time to make sure your windows are as bird-friendly as they can be.
This great poster by @rosemarymosco.com summarizes the problem of window collisions; learn what you can do at birdsafe.ca
The shop is open Easter Monday as normal & a mountain of new stock gone out recently
Title: Hunting for Easter eggs with Werner Herzog Panel one: Werner goes out looking for eggs saying “I despise this idiotic sanitized ritual, and yet I am unwilling to return home eggless” Panel two: Werner stands before an egg on the ground “The joy of discovery rings hollow against the monumental indifference of the universe” Panel three: Werner carries an egg “what, other than regret, can hatch from this empty chocolate vessel”
Happy Easter!
A digital illustration of David Lynch (we miss you) from the little concrete walled, cluttered office space he used to do his odd little weather reports from. Everything is rendered in a strange combination of textures and line halftones and muted cool colors. Cruddy lettering at the bottom of the frame reads 'Maybe it will happen today'.
