A very important thread. When I was probably no more than 10, I saw this picture of the woman known as Harlow in the Philly Inquirer. A little babygay, I was shocked that such a glamour queen could live in my hometown and even more shocked to see her described as "a former man."

I hate this Labour government more than I hated all of the Tories that came before them because we expected so much more. They have turned out to be an absolute rancid sewer of a party. Fuck them. Vote Green.

It is incredible to me how made up this issue is. No one gave a shit ten years ago. Sure there were your individual mad, ignorant bigots but *Theresa May* was pushing for self-ID because it was the last little bit of logistical sorting out of a settled question: we're ok with Trans people

A) valid
B) get you a partner like this
Been in a brace with a broken kneecap for weeks. The wife shouted 'want to see my tits' from the other room and I went flying over the footstool trying to get there as quickly as possible. The real fess is I still tried to crawl the rest of the way as I was promised tits.

In terms of what’s understood to be socially acceptable behavior, normalizing the filming/taking pictures of people in public who are minding their own business (and putting it online) is one of the worst developments of the past 15 years.

I don't want to overly romanticise the studios. Many were set up and for decades run by sexists, racists and of course ruthless capitalists. They've often seemed hostile to film as an art form. But the situation now is not an improvement. Monopoly consolidation is Not Good. Cinema is Not Better Off.

Correcting an earlier error - “You’ll have to prize it from my cold dead hands” was not, in fact, a design suggestion.
This is the most horrific trophy I’ve ever seen. It looks like a cursed object found in a desert crypt.

"It's called having range"

No, I am putting my gatekeeper hat fully on, this isn't range, it's a small handful at best. Sure, within those genres there's plenty of range, but if you want to say you enjoy a wide range of genres, you should go for more than 5.
I would like to suggest that this - indie, soul, alternative pop, Britpop and electronica - isn't really a wide enough range to describe yourself as having range

Then why not pick up one of our shirts that we ordered for our 1 gig and the courier couldn't be arsed to deliver on time and now we're stuck with a load of them

Often when I go through various AOTY lists, I don't find anything new that I really vibe with.* Went through the AOTY list of @thequietus.com and found this album composed on a recreation of a 14th Century Anglo-Saxon lyre. Hypnotic, beautiful drone/folk.

December! (Ouch! Oof)
A few years ago on the birdsite, I did an advent gallery of art.
I thought I'd do the same here.
We'll kick off with Ivan Aivazovsky's "Wrath of the Seas"

A new book! By me! About something 'orrible on the London Underground!
It's out in six months and I think you're gonna like it...
‼️ COVER REVEAL ‼️

There's something lurking in the stifling darkness and labyrinthine tunnels that run below London... something old, something vicious, and something very, very hungry.

Cruelty is anhedonic. It rarely delivers the euphoria promised because, in the abstract, what feels righteous and joyful inevitably reveals itself to be sordid and small. Then it's "No not like that". "No not enough". "No the real battle, the forever war to make this feel good starts now". Forever.
Note how these awful people are getting exactly the exclusions of children that they demanded and *that still isn’t enough for them*: they demand everyone be delighted about it and kiss their arses for being brilliant.

Hello, hi. I am glad you like my content. However, I must insist that if you intend to watch the Harry Potter TV show, for whatever reason, you don't get to enjoy my content as well. Please unfollow.

If you value entertainment over the ruination of trans lives, you don't get to enjoy us.
