Tiny light, keep on shining, hold back the dark. Lives on a hill in Sicily with an embarrassing number of cats. Scruffy dilettante. My molecules will decay and hopefully I'll grow some flowers, to feed some bees - or more likely the cats will eat me

First pomegranate of the year. Not quite ready to be honest but as you can see something was already trying to get through the skin
A pomegranate in half, one side shoeing seeds, the other skin, on a chopping board. The inside is pink rather than scarlet and gnawing on the skin can be seen.

Misogyny killed Monica many years before she died
When poor Monica Coghlan died in a car crash last week, it was a result both pitiful and inevitable. The rightful order had been restored. Justice had been done. Her sad, brief life was over: she had ...

Auto transcription (I was curious, sharing for access. Agree this is fantastic.)
Screenshot of a transcript. It says: “Exactly right, but I want to say a couple things. One thing about cities that I found in this reporting: cities are very unfairly labeled as these problem centers by Donald Trump and others. And one thing is worth remembering: if you look at the population of well, all people in cities, particularly people who come to cities from elsewhere, but particularly homeless and other vulnerable people in cities, look at youth homeless. A pretty large chunk of those people who end up in cities were failed in some other parts of this country. Okay, in the fraction of youth homeless who are LGBTQ, whatever, pretty high. So there are a lot of families in this country who fail the first duty of family, which is to love your kids more than any other thing, and there's a lot of families in this country that look at some verse in some book, and their child's face, and choose theSecond screenshot says: “verse in the book over their child's face, and drive their children out of Nebraska or out of Florida or out of Idaho, and those kids come to San Francisco, and those kids come to New York, and those kids go to Chicago, and we have friends giving dinners with them. You live in L.A. You are surrounded by people who have those kind of stories, and so cities. Every time someone is sleeping on a subway bench in a city, the rest of America can sort of say, "Ah, look at these cities.” But we are holding a lot of your people who you fail to love and take care of.

1. I will tell you a great secret Captain, perhaps the greatest of all time.

2. The molecules of your body are the same molecules that make up this station 

3. And the nebula outside. That burn inside the stars themselves

5. We are the universe made manifest

The house next door has finally sold so in a few weeks I'll have neighbours, which will be weird. Nice young couple. They like cats. Today the Dad was up working & G, the only hunter I like stopped to chat, so I went to introduce them and turns out they'd worked together for years before retiring.

My partner had never seen the work of genius that is the ‘tea consent’ video, so now I’m sharing it here again, because consent explained through the vehicle of tea is the most British thing ever. And also really fucking important.

nonconsensual violation of other's bodies, whether sexual or physical or humiliating (the list is endless) is very much something young men are taught to do to other men as much as they are to women. it's the norm, not aberration.

i worry that men think being A Good Guy is dramatically and heroically intervening on behalf of an endangered woman and then being publicly rewarded on a grand scale when actually being A Good Guy is just usually saying, “hey man that’s not funny” or “wow that’s fucked up” and there is no reward

Men who yell, spit, or hog space on public transit. Men who leer at children and make women feel unsafe. Men who do that physical intimidation posturing when they don't get what they want. They all deserve to be told to knock it off, because we're trying to have a society.

Men lash out when you say something about their antisocial behavior because what you are actually doing is putting some of the discomfort, pain, and fear they put out into the world back onto the source. Remember, you didn't start it. They did.

Physical emotion, lump in throat, scratchy eyes at news of Frank Turner retiring. Son going to try to get tickets for over a year in the future. Jetlag (quoted only yesterday?) and Ballad of the Magi have worn grooves in my soul. In the end the journeys brought joys to outweigh the pain.

Re poem references, this is my absolute favourite
An old tumblr (?) post. A user called wizardarchetypes posts

hey man i see ur busy walking on your  knees a hundred miles through the desert but if you're bored with that me and my friends were thinking about getting together and letting the soft animals of our bodies love what they love. lmk

The same user then reposts the reply 

#hey I'd love to but I'm worried I'd have to be good

With the comment 

You're not gonna believe this.

The whole is a reference to the Mary Oliver poem Wild Geese, which if you haven't read may be just what the poetry doctor ordered.

The real reason to read old stuff, terminal social media heads will assert, is that posters keep alluding to the same set of poems over and over again, and if you don't know 'em, all your aspirations of becoming a terminal social media head too goes the way of the widening gyre
