Another chilling shooting by a federal agent in Minneapolis, this time of a nurse. My heart goes out to Alex Pretti's family.

We cannot let Nigel Farage and Reform import Trump’s dark politics to the UK.

New trees listed over the weekend and beads ordered for a tree request. Can ease off on the making for a bit because I'm running out of storage space. 🙃

Anyway you can find this one and all the others available here www.twystedroots.co.uk/shop

New trees! It's good to focus on art right now because the world is kinda awful and I can't do anything about it. 💚
A garnet and silver wire tree with spiralled roots sitting on my white oak effect tv unit. A green and a blue tree are out of focus behind it. A silver wire tree with chrysocolla gemstones. Tree has spiralled roots and is sitting on my tv stand with a tv and white wall behind it. A spring green bead and wire weeping willow tree on a piece of slate, sitting on my white oak effect tv stand. I've not measured it but it is around 3 inches high and 5 inches wide. Ish.

THIS DAY in 2016, Australian Jade Hameister did a TedX Talk on skiing to the North Pole at the age of 14. She was inundated with misogynist comments like 'Just make me a sandwich."

A year later she skied to the South Pole, made a sandwich, and posted to her critics that it was ready for them.

I've got lots of things to say about Jeremy Clarkson.

Really not worth it. He knows his game is over and so is resorting to personal attacks.

Piss him off instead and

Ah, 4 October! Happy fifth birthday to this marvellous thing…
Tom Hollander, A Life in the Day: I wake up generally at 3 or 4am. Not because I'm like Margaret Thatcher, but because I need to pee. I pee in the darkness using my phone screen to illuminate the target, then often take half a sleeping pill ... Sometime between 6 and 8 I wake again, turn up the Today programme gently. If my girlfriend is there we hold each other in different positions. If she isn't I wrap my arms around a pillow and continue listening to the bad news. Whoever gets up first will go downstairs and start baking porridge. ... It takes about 40 minutes to cook and we eat it in such large quantities with olive oil and salt that we negate any nutritional benefits. But we enjoy it. And while it's cooking it gives us time to look at our phones. Sometimes in this waiting period I try to do three slow sun salutations to stretch myself out, but often I don't. I brew the first of many coffees. ... Owing to forces beyond my control, life has not been as busy as it used to be. … I look at myself in the mirror and try to see what others see. Examine my bald patch, weigh myself and pull my stomach in. Then let it out. Then pull it in again. If I'm feeling positive I might get dressed at this point and go for my second coffee on the street below. I've lived in the same flat for 20 years and one of the rewards for this loyalty is that I know all the shopkeepers and stallholders on the street, for whom I have become like a piece of the old furniture they sell. Hello Glen, hello Kris, Ghino! … Then take it home and leave it on the sideboard with any post that has arrived from my stalker. Then I might call my agent. "Isn't she? No, no, nothing important... just checking in..." Soon it's time for my midmorning nap. Followed by the preparation of lunch, which I start at 12.15pm. … If it's sunny I might go for a cycle ride down the canal, ifit's raining I might masturbate and doze, or speculate on the extraordinary injustice of Philip Green's knighthood…

THIS DAY in 2021, the Daily Mail completely fabricated (of course they did) a story, for clicks (of course) about 'EcoProtestors', to incite reader outrage.

It was a filmed stunt by a Jeremy Clarkson TV Show.

And the Mail KNEW in advance.

Just a reminder to check for your name in this list of books that OpenAI trained from. If your name is there, they probably owe you several thousand dollars.

OpenAI cried that if everyone eligible author files, the company will go bankrupt, so I'm alerting every author I have ever spoken to.
