Limited liability is one of our weird silences. It's a massive free gift society makes to plutocrats, seldom remarked upon, let alone contested.
Shareholders should have to buy limited liability, like any other insurance. The insurers would then be liable. 🧵

This is lovely. I've been doing a daily practice exercise this last year. Mushrooms and fungi, even the most basic toadstool, are both satisfying to draw and really well received when I share them.

People apparently like a mushroom.

Ever since I finished Question Time, Reform have massively been on the attack.

Including a rant from Richard Tice entirely designed to distract from Reform and Russia.

Everyone should know about Nathan Gill, the bribes from Russia and the link to Reform.

Moving on from acrylic paint pens to gouache, cause gouache still kinda scares me and I feel I am really not that good at it yet. Do you have tips or recs for me?

Square Photo of an open sketchbook against a grey desk placed with a used paint palette, a pencil and small paintbrush.
The painting shown was done in gouache of a stack of three green frogs, they're all sticking out their tongues.

Martial arts also erase the Freeze response, because you will already have practised your responses and reactions to an assault, and your training will step in.

Bad people rely on your Freeze response. Patriarchy loses if we do weight training and martial arts 😘
