i made this abc collection a while back, when i couldn't yell, and put up a version of it. i can yell now so i wanted to see what it would be like to perform it with vocals, with a view to possibly doing a live version of it in the future... www.youtube.com/watch?v=0aKe...

This looks like a cool queer history conference!

Call for Papers: Queer Rural History Symposium
Date: Monday 15th March 2027
Venue: The Museum of English Rural Life, Reading, RG1 5EX
Lunch to be provided for all attendees
About the Symposium
Until recently, studies of queer history have focused almost exclusively on the urban sphere, given the greater availability of archival material evidencing queer lives in the city. The few queer rural histories which have been popularised in public consciousness are those of aristocrats in country homes, such as Anne Lister and Vita Sackville-West. However, it goes without saying that people with dissonant sexualities and gender identities lived and loved in all corners of society throughout the centuries, including the countryside. As such, there is a growing appetite for broader research into this area. How did queer people meet those who were like-minded in regions of scarce population density? What forms did their relationships take against a backdrop of criminality and stigma? And how did rural attitudes towards queer people differ to those in the city?
This one day symposium aims to bring together researchers of all backgrounds, and at any stage of their work, to share ideas and discuss methods on this emerging field of study. It works towards the goal of not just filling gaps in academic knowledge that exist for both rural history and queer history, but also to show queer people living in the countryside today that there is, and always has been, a heritage and a place for them.

Proposals
We invite proposals on themes such as, but not limited to, the following:
1.
Queer histories of the working and middle classes in rural areas
2.
Methodologies for recovering queer rural histories, such as the use of museum and archive collections
3.
Queer rural networks: how they met and flourished
4.
The response of rural communities to queer relationships
5.
Migration of same sex couples from the city to the countryside and vice versa
6.
The ways in which museums and archive services respond to queer rural history
If you would like to submit a proposal, please send an abstract (max 250 words) along with a short bio (50 words) to symposium organisers Tim Jerrome and Esther Rutter at t.jerrome1@uni.brighton.ac.uk. It is preferable that these come in the form of a Word document attached to the email. The deadline for submissions is 5pm on Sunday 6th December 2026.
If you would like to attend the symposium without presenting a paper, let us know via the above email as we need to ensure we do not go above capacity.
We are currently applying for funding to help cover travel costs for those who need it. Please let us know if you would like to attend but would require assistance with travel costs to do so. Priority will be given to attendees where cost would otherwise be a barrier to participation.
Many thanks to Rainbow Canopy (The LGBTQ+ network of Forestry England), the Esmée Fairbairn Collections Fund, and the staff at The MERL for helping us to fund and organise the symposium.

Once again, speaking as a professional archaeologist: "English" is not an ethnicity in any meaningful sense. You only have to go back about 1,000 years before everyone in Europe has the same group of common genealogical ancestors. Humans have lived on the British Isles for almost a million years.

A new far-right magazine is launching in France, subtly named “Civilisation” and led by Laetitia Strauch-Bonart. Influenced by Edmund Burke, she translated Roger Scruton and helped introduce his radical right thought to France. Its first issue features an interview with Peter Thiel.

Pour sa première interview en France depuis plus de dix ans, Peter Thiel a choisi Civilisation.

Technofaciste, libertarien, néo-réactionnaire, conservateur, libéral classique…
Tout le monde semble avoir un avis sur cette figure controversée de la Silicon Valley - cofondateur de PayPal et Palantir, et proche du vice-président américain J. D. Vance.

Mais rares sont ceux à l’avoir lu et plus encore interrogé.
Nous l’avons fait : Thiel a choisi de s’exprimer dans Civilisation, alors qu’il ne s’était pas entretenu avec un média français depuis plus de dix ans.

Que pense-t-il vraiment de la liberté et de la démocratie, de l’intelligence artificielle, de la situation de l'Europe ou encore de l’ascension de la Chine?
Voilà quelques-unes des questions que nous lui avons posées, et il ne s’est dérobé à aucune d’entre elles, même les plus dérangeantes.

Dès dimanche, vous pourrez lire cet entretien exclusif sur civilisation.media - et le 1er octobre dans le premier numéro de Civilisation.

One of the great feature film debuts, Jan Němec’s astonishing Diamonds of the Night (1964). A visceral survival thriller following two boys who jump from a Nazi transportation train and make an arduous escape through hostile terrain. Largely dialogue-free, a masterwork in visual storytelling...

György Fehér's otherworldly rural crime saga Twilight (1990). The unmistakable influence of Bela Tarr (credited as a consultant) in every frame - long methodical takes, ominous gloom... Heavy use of ‘Tsintskaro’ from Kate Bush's 'Hello Earth', connecting the film to Herzog's Nosferatu, love it...

It’s a Juraj Herz's double-bill with decadent baroque gothic fairytale Morgiana (1972).

Years back, when Robinson was trying to build his profile, parts of the media would try to get black writers with progressive views to debate him and therefore legitimise him. We saw the trick and we mostly avoided him, we knew exactly who he was.

one of my favourite things is when a politician/think tank/meh demands ‘you must resolve yr problem by doing a capitalism’ and then a capitalism is done and the same people cry ‘nooooo you’ve done the wrong capitalism!! 😭😭’

an extract from today’s Times: The Cameron-Clegg coalition government believed a market would emerge when maximum tuition fees were trebled to £9,000 in 2012. Architects of the fee increase thought universities would undercut each other, but the majority have always charged the maximum amount.

Just a reminder as the new academic year kicks off - the UK government has deliberately, ruthlessly, throttled the recruitment of international students, solely to pander to racists, and the resultant 25%+ fall in numbers can and will only accelerate some universities into bankruptcy.
