Christmas is hard for many. The years roll, the ghosts at the table increase. We’re haunted by the absence of voices, of laughter engines who drank and ate with us. This can be day of remembrance rituals. For what it’s worth, Hooklanders near and far are in my candles today. Be gentle on yourselves.

Very sad that I felt I had no choice but to resign from The Infinite Monkey Cage - a victory for the transphobes and other bigots - I did it because so much of the media has chosen to believe the kind and empathetic people are a fiction - they are real and so often unrepresented.

The cover of the comic I was holding when I met Peter Capaldi. Had a nice talk with him after.
If you’d like to help me get back to work, it’d be appreciated.
My only work computer died bad, and I’m without a machine.

There is no obvious limit to how far Trump is prepared to go. He wants everything. He wants everyone to swear undying loyalty to him. He is prepared to do anything to get it. “Anything” might currently seem unimaginable to us. It's time we started imagining it. 4/4

A welcome - and long overdue - step. But while it’s necessary, it’s deeply insufficient - and must be accompanied by urgent action to help bring an end to the genocide in Gaza, including boycotts, sanctions and an end to all arms sales to Israel.
