Very sorry to hear that the poet J.H. Prynne has died, at the age of 89. Here, from 10 years ago, is my attempt to describe the man and the work

The famously obscure poetry of JH Prynne glitters with aphorisms and jokes

If you're on signal & haven't already, maybe go to Settings → Notifications → Content → Name Only or No Name or Content Because apparently phone forensics can scrape msgs from notifications storage. Not just a signal problem, btw. Any encrypted messaging service w/ a "msg preview" type of setting

I know we're all strapped, but if you can help Isaac (& @notrightruth.bsky.social who's the excellent human running the funder) by sharing this, may it can find someone who can help a Black trans kid? www.crowdfunder.co.uk/p/isaaccare

The whole "it's here, accept it, it's already in your life, you can't stop it, it's happening & actually you being unable to remove it (bc we designed it like that) is proof you want ir" techbro chat is pure & utter rape script. Nothing but.

Just for clarity: Wes Streeting is an bald-faced quisling, whose rights as a cis gay man wouldn't exist without the struggles and sacrifice of the trans and gender diverse people who came before him. If you believe him now I have a bridge to sell you.

When I teach LGBTQ+ film classes I spend a lot of time giving students (who are usually part of the community) LGBTQ+ history because, as Hugh points out, most gay people don’t know all that much about their own history. It’s the most meaningful work I do. Excellent thread, highly suggest you read!

I have multiple & contradictory thoughts about including non-binary writers (such as me) in IWD book displays. *if all ur nb writers are all afab, congrats ur the Women's Prize & it's a fail *if u include afab nb writers & no trans women it's a double fail & pure transphobia

An email sent out by TripleCeePee asking recipients to "help us save this Leicester Comedy Festival show" because 10 more ticket sales are needed in the next 24 hours to "ensure the show is viable and can go ahead." The show is called Ada & Bron: The Origin of Love.Cropped image of show synopsis, showing that Ada and Bron's full names are Ada Player and Bron Waugh. Zoomed in image of Bron Waugh's name.
