Rod Liddle called his ex-wife a “slut and a slattern” in print before marrying a 22-year old Spectator receptionist who he was cautioned by the police after assaulting her when she was 20 weeks pregnant. But he was anti-trans, so these “protectors of women” overlook everything.

Obsessed with the final Foetus album "Halt" and its intense focus on the fragmenting present. "I can see the smoky plumes on the horizon And the warships just seem to multiply And their crucifixes look like iron crosses I will push back hard against them 'til I die"

I'm absolutely devastated for colleagues at Jodrell Bank who found out this morning that funding for the UK's e-MERLIN radio telescope array will be terminated. This is a short-sighted move, to save a tiny fraction of the overall UK science budget. #SaveJodrellBank 🔭🧪 www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

Beard's essay opens, "I want to start very near the beginning of the tradition of Western literature, and its first recorded example of a man telling a woman to ‘shut up’; telling her that her voice was not to be heard in public."
