why does my reading have to be interrupted by having to make money

This is pretty much perfect. Clever, warm and deeply insightful. I loved this episode (yes, I do love them all. What of it?!). It felt like being part of a conversation with friends. I am going to enjoy my second viewing of the movie so much more, having listened to this. Bravo.

This is exactly why language matters: “women were given the vote” frames equality as a gift from men, instead of hard won political power extracted through organized resistance. Nobody gave women anything. Women fought, marched, strategized, endured violence, went to prison and died for it.

The very real, raw and regal Richard Ashcroft at Newcastle Arena last night…what a show. More folks on stage than ever before (strings! Keys! BVs!), elevating every song to a stadium-worthy anthem. Joy and grace abounded. Happy Easter.

Me, facing away from the camera and towards the stage in Newcastle Arena, a few rows of people in front of me. I’m wearing a black hoodie and on the back, in bold white letters, it says “Music is Power”. Richard Ashcroft’s summer tour dates are advertised on a big screen to the right hand of the stage.

It’s beyond glorious to be finding myself, once again, utterly charmed by this delightful man and his bewitching podcast. @sturdyalex.bsky.social, I could listen to you all day (in fact, I think I will).

If love and acceptance have felt out of reach, I hope this image invites you to reconsider that story. For those who don’t struggle with it, I hope it affirms what you already know.

Spent last night screaming with everybody on the Everybody Scream tour. Excellent. 10/10, would recommend. Florence is a force of nature…a woman at the height of her power is an awe-inspiring and dangerously wonderful thing.

On Sunday, for one evening only…Newcastle was Euro Country, CMAT was our Queen, anything could happen and everything felt possible. A phenomenal performance. Love, love, love her.

Scenes from Saturday evening. I’m afraid I can’t reveal any more except it was absolutely unforgettable for all the right reasons. @richardashcroft.bsky.social is better than ever. And that’s saying something. ♥️ #musicispower

A selfie-style photograph of me and my lovely friend Sarah looking very excited. We are both wearing black T-shirts and huge smiles.

The outside of the Co-Op Live Arena in Manchester, at night. A white, lit-up sign in the foreground says “Co-Op Live”. Around the screens at the top of the arena building, there is a gorgeous picture of Richard Ashcroft next to his name, written in red and in capital letters.

A selfie of Sarah and I in the Backstage Club. The low lighting is pink and lilac. We are both holding pints of Asahi lager and my T-shirt says “The Verve” in white letters on a black background

The best thing about this cartoon is the joy on the LGBTQ+ sheep's face. We all deserve to feel this joy, even if it means saying FLUCK YOU to the flock! 🧡🏳️‍🌈

I prosecute and defend the most serious sexual offences in our courts. The overwhelming majority of offenders are British-born. Overwhelmingly the victim is someone known to them, either a partner or relative. Anybody purporting to care about protecting women might start there.

Either Palestine is a state or it isn’t - it’s not a state (or not) depending on what another state is doing. This is a cowardly response which buys Labour some time; unfortunately, the people of Gaza don’t have much time left. There’ll be little and less left to recognise in September. For shame.

Few things satiate my brain and my soul in the way @sturdyalex.bsky.social’s storytelling does. Even better on the second listen (as they all are). Sigh.

Every year around #Pride Month, someone pulls out the old “Pride is a sin!” line. Meanwhile… look at the shirt they’re wearing. It’s not really about “sin,” is it? It’s about control. It’s about fear. It’s about discomfort with people living and loving freely. My response: Grow up. Learn to love.
