my cat would wake me up with her wet nose so persistently it felt like i was being beaten with rubber truncheons. unyielding psychological violence. a creature who could have kept pace with the torturers in the Lubyanka, or the generals on the Eastern front, I miss her very much.

Nothing these people have done lasts except the wrecks and the damage. They can't make anything but craters and scars.

On this night thirty-nine years ago, The Phantom of the Opera had it's West End debut. One of those anniversaries about which I can only have mixed feelings- like those children born addicted to heroin learning about the release of OxyContin.

watched the Kneecap movie and it pisses me off how in England you have this naked contempt for education and art and the young while Ireland is having a great cultural moment. all this wank about defending heritage and 'englishness' but hostility to English degrees, every museum under attack, fucked

there's an article in nymag about the people who put their kids through college on it. tomorrow is also the anniversary of the west end opening (I am so boring about this subject I could make ALW jump out of a window to get away from me).

delightful to see badenoch denying that her conference was half empty, while the pictures of the half empty hall are up and the journo is telling her so, and badenoch has lipstick on her teeth. England's rose.
