in order: purchasing on bandcamp, streaming or purchasing from qobuz, streaming from most other platforms (apple music, tidal, deezer, etc.), or pirating (if financially unable to afford other options) are all valid alternatives to supporting the spotify corporation.

my great-grandparents arrived in the UK in the 1890s with nothing.
they sold pickles from the front room window, took in laundry, worked as tailors.
their children were nurses, teachers, salesmen.
their grandchildren were professors, designers, opticians, doctors, magistrates, entrepreneurs.

In S17 of #Taskmaster, Nick Mohammed dressed as a vampire for his tasks. The production scrubbed all his reflections when he's dressed like this, but the only way I knew is because someone told me about it. It's subtle and very cool.

A project I cleared my schedule for is taking some time to get off the ground, so I’m once again open for contract work. Need a writer/editor/localizer? Let me make your women angrier and your bisexuals more chaotic.

I wrote this huge, 3,000-word or so deep dive into the state of game actors’ contracts in the UK, which is a hot mess of exploitation, AI clauses and chaotic rate calculations.
And no one read it.
But you really, REALLY should.

Contracts for game actors are a nightmare in the UK
SAG-AFTRA's strike might have sorted things out in the US – but UK contract negotiations are still a mess of exploitation, AI clauses, and non-standard rates
