Apolitically ‘both sides-ing’…? Safe travels.

Jewish-American actor Mandy Patinkin in July 2025, appealing to fellow Jews around the world: “… how could it be done to you and your ancestors and you turn around and you do it to someone else?” #FreePalestine #Gaza

Posting this, not because I agree with quite how far Femi goes here (I don’t), but because it illustrates what hateful words from Gilligan and his ilk lead to. Social media discourse seems so full of it right now, but you can’t overcome hate with more hate. But his main points stand, absolutely.

Love Jen Brister. In other news, look what I spotted on R4Extra this morning! Missed it first time round — both episodes are up and available to listen now.

Speaking of agents, in our local bookshop today, we flagged up a lack of your books in the poetry section — then, a chat which began with us saying how fab you were at Quinns in June and ended with them googling your agent, promising to try to land a visit from you when your next book comes out! 🤞🏻

She was a good, decent, ‘no fuss’ woman who was brilliant at what she did for a very long time. She also honoured her husband’s wish for a life out of the spotlight and funded a global literacy programme to the tune of $millions. Artist, philanthropist and outstanding human — truly, one of a kind.

Saw this from Paul Ilett on Threads and thought of you…

Helen Lister @doodleflapper.bsky.social · 21/08/2026

I don’t disagree on either point and actually posted a reply…

In other news, I’ve just spotted this on FB and the first person I thought to tell was you…

There are some other interesting replies to Paul Ilett’s post…

He resigned NINE DAYS earlier — so where was the public interest in the oceans of coverage which not only persisted but INCREASED during those nine days afterwards… I mean, what were they looking for? He’d RESIGNED! What more did they expect him to do? It isn’t as tho they weren’t warned

I know that knot — I do. I’ve shared this before and I’m sharing again because it’s true and an apposite reminder…

Dim Kitten who tried to deny me the joy of #CleanSheetsDay last night by making it exceedingly difficult to climb into bed. (Thrilled to meet you at MH on Wednesday — Rosie esp asks me to thank you for signing her books and so appreciating her shiny garden stone — thanks so much; you were lovely.)

Could it be ‘The Heavenly Kid’…?

I don’t know…. I mean, is this👇🏻 a ‘warning’…?

Helen Lister @doodleflapper.bsky.social · 08/02/2026

Yet this is what he said at the time…

Nothing to see here… Only the UK deputy PM’s newest best buddy (who happens to be vice president of the United States) declaring he doesn’t “give a shit” about murder he endorses of civilians being Actual War Crimes…

It’s almost Spring… If you start gardening naked in your back garden, your neighbours will put up a free fence for you. (Follow me for more gardening and money saving tips.)

This Wes Streeting…? Like his boss, Streeting will always shamelessly do whatever is politically expedient in the furtherance and pursuit of his own vain, self-interested, personal ambition. He, like Starmer, hasn’t a community-minded, public-service bone in his body.

Yeah... they lied their socks off, never expecting to be held accountable; it was clear from their faces the morning after that they hadn't in a million years expected to win.

Because sometimes, only a dinosaur dressed as Santa, carrying a bauble and wearing a sporran, will do. #AdventSunday
