They want you illiterate so you can never build a better world. You have to fight people like Schiff and anyone else trying to force fascist technology to our children tooth and nail. Education is about education, not about prepping you to be ground down by capital.

HopeStreet made it onto the London-South East rail network! I never thought I'd miss British trains... Get it: petes-press.square.site/product/hope...

My book, HopeStreet, sits on a train seat in London. The seat cover is black with that weird neon 90s yellow/green/pink and geometric pattern which clashes with the blue/gold book cover!

10,000 words into the sequel to #HopeStreet!! It is even sillier and is soon going involve Red Footed Boobies.

So... It turns out my friend of ...twelve years... *Forgot* the fact that I had come out as bi to her a decade ago. Which is kinda funny since I've never hidden anything and for years she's just thought all my weird gay shit has been "just Bel." Reassuring, really.

Unexpectedly Went on a date yesterday. She gave me flowers. #randomhaiku

Weird but pretty false coloured flowers (teal, blue and purple, I have no idea what type of flower because the only two I can identify are roses and daffodils and it's not either of them)

Finally...with obvious bias: HopeStreet by @bel-scifi.bsky.social that I read at least half a dozen times with varying degrees of self doubt.

"It was just this sort of surreal situation where Tycho’s skills and talents - that is, being human, being unable to fly, and occasionally responding to shouts of “Be careful!” - were absolutely essential." #wipsnips #HopeStreet #booksky #sept23
