Watching (very belatedly) Star Trek Voyager and just ran into Cylon Simon in it. As in BSG, he's a complicated/complex baddie, although his character is not much more than an extra.

It cannot be made clearer.

If you continue to support the Harry Potter franchise in any way, you are directly funding the removal of trans people's human rights in the UK.

A refusal to mourn is not a celebration.

A refusal to eulogize is not an endorsement of murder.

A refusal to canonize a horrible human being is not a declaration of war.

I really really should stop reading the news at breakfast. There wasn't anything specific today, just the usual, the rise of the right, media inflating Reform and his buffoon mouthpiece, war and genocide much further down in the news. But that's quite enough.

'Canción Del Emperador' is a setting for vihuela by the Spanish composer Luys de Narváez (1526–1549)) of the song 'Mille Regretz' by Josquin des Prez. I have had the pleasure and honour of playing it with the singer Ruth Pritchard. In this occasion it is the vihuela setting, transcribed for guitar.

There is quite a long page on Wikipedia about the exploits of Gregor McGregor: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gregor_...

Listening again to @mikeduncan.bsky.social 's 'Revolutions' podcast, the part about the Spanish American independence wars. Again, so much that I wasn't taught in school in my native Venezuela. And getting now to the breathtaking story of the con-man Gregor McGregor -just wow #history #venezuela

When Michael Jordan felt boxed in by his success in basketball he tried baseball. When Gary Brooks became synonymous with country he created Chris Gaines. And when JK Rowling created the most successful kids books of all time she reinvented herself as a petty, weirdo transphobia influencer.
