"Independence is not a word which can be used as an exorcism, but an indispensable condition for the existence of men and women who are truly liberated...who are truly masters of all the material means which make possible the radical transformation of society" - Frantz Fanon (1961)
Had a really enjoyable theological and philosophical discussion with two very nice women from the local Kingdom Hall of Jehovah’s Witnesses. They were doing the rounds, and were surprised that I even opened the door to them. Our respective beliefs and opinions were discussed, and mutually respected.

Can we pleeeeeeease all finally agree that Fido, as the all-encompassing, generic, shorthand name for a dog is no longer fit for purpose. I’m over 50, and have never met a dog called Fido.

I saw this fantastic painting, ‘𝐴 𝑀𝑎𝑛 𝑖𝑛 𝐴𝑟𝑚𝑜𝑢𝑟’, by Rembrandt, at the Kelvingrove Gallery in Glasgow. It’s amazing how when looking up close at the beautiful shine/light/reflection effect on the armour, each seemingly random brushstroke is revealed.
