I have heard men called “dense” and “fruity” before, but never “pachydermatous”…

I'm enjoying this book so much that it's starting to cut into my productivity. Like, instead of sitting down to write, I just want to keep reading about the history of Bigfoot and the Yeti and their ilk.

Read an article by Robin Loxton, which originally appeared in the edition of DABC’s Transition magazine, Following Their Path: How disability trailblazers are guiding today’s advocacy (Fall/Winter 2025): https://disabilityalliancebc.org/article-dabcs-trailblazing-advocate-looks-back/

Route 73 hums into Loxton Square on time, its electric motor providing a silent rebuke to the diesel-heavy, delayed reality of the wider network. Passengers heading inbound from Stockwood have found a rare pocket of efficiency in a system that more often prioritises dividend extraction

Over 90% of some wetland habitats in the UK have been lost, due to animal agriculture draining the land & peat extraction, contributing to the degradation of raised bogs, fens, and wet woodlands in the Somerset area.

I had the privilege of meeting Dr Ferrus once. In Loxton, at an ATKV event nogals. She told us the Saartjie story and read the related poem. A wonderful human 💚

Thick fog swallows the post-war estates of Stockwood as the inbound 73 arrives at Loxton Square without delay. The silence of this electric Yutong U11DD at 6:20 AM offers a glimpse of a functional city, even if the shareholders are currently dreaming of the dividends extracted from less

A high contrast black and white landscape photograph. Two large, dead eucalyptus trees with bare, skeletal branches frame the shot, one on the far left and one on the right. In the foreground, a thick bank of tall reeds and river grasses catches the light. Behind the reeds is a calm body of water, with a dense line of living trees forming a dark silhouette along the distant shoreline under a clear sky.

A nocturnal street scene in Loxton shrouded in thick fog. In the foreground, a tree with vibrant green and yellow leaves is illuminated by a striking red light, casting an eerie glow on its branches. In the misty background, a bright white streetlamp creates a hazy halo, partially revealing a vintage style building and two parked SUVs on a quiet asphalt road. The image has a moody, atmospheric feel.

A high contrast black and white photograph of a large, historic stone church in Loxton, South Australia. The church features a prominent bell tower with a tall, pointed spire and intricate Gothic-style arched windows. The foreground consists of a wide, open ground, and the scene is framed by a large tree trunk on the right and overhanging branches at the top. The sky is overcast and dramatic.

Understood. It took a couple of weeks for my copy of 'Everything Will Swallow You' to get here but it was worth it. I'm not done with Blackwell's--I'm also wanting '1983' and 'Help The Witch,' also by @dj-acid-reflux.bsky.social, and a couple of books by Alice Loxton (historian, great IG feed).
