And this is why that other injunction needs overturning. Men cannot continue to hide behind the law when there are accusations of sexual misconduct around.

PSA: Sean Shibe's playing the Great Hall at Lancaster Uni, December 3rd. Including the new Thomas Ades piece for guitar. Saw him premiere this at Wigmore Hall, Ades was there to congratulate him. Giddy times. Seriously, the lad's a genius.
It's his job to speak up for the people there. Right now he is being paid £80k a year and is unable to speak in the Senedd because he refuses to apologise for wrongly claiming his own constituents are replacing white British people. 3/3
Reform are boycotting the Senedd on Armistice Day. This means that the official opposition won't be taking part in a debate THEY TABLED on how we can better support the armed forces and veterans.
“Consent is too low a bar, hold out for enthusiasm” - Me, to my boys, repeatedly. Or at least every single time the news provokes it, which is - let’s face it - repeatedly
This was one of the most bizarre press conferences I have ever been too. Reform UK held a press conference and said they would not be carry out their jobs of sitting the Senedd today to defend the "free speech" of Joe Martin MS. 1/3

It’s Claude Rains’ birthday Do yourself a favour and watch James Whale’s The Invisible Man. The sfx still hold up admirably but the greatest special effect is Rains’ truly demented & disturbing performance as Jack Griffin, relying almost totally on that wonderful voice… youtu.be/KXMOURHEMpY?...

Man, if I could move to WA right now... Being an Archivist for Nintendo - and a technical one as well, documenting the hardware and system changes that have happened - is a DREAM. V. glad to see Nintendo take it seriously because Digital Preservation is a HUGE issue facing global heritage.
This is neat. Nintendo of America is hiring a librarian to catalog their vast trove of development documents. This person will also be conducting interviews with important Nintendo employees to make sure their experience is preserved for future devs. careers.nintendo.com/jobs/4458631...

“No tears, I’ve had a great career.” - Jess Fishlock 💙 And what an incredible career it’s been!
The mechanism of her brain got to work with a painful jerk and begin to tick in time with the clock.
Don't you hate it when you're trying to get to the shops and some jaywalker is holding up traffic? (I stood in the road to make sure they didn't get squished)
As we descend into the festive season please remember that small businesses are often run by humans, and have feelings to match.
Play it loud. Richard Lloyd forever ❤️ youtu.be/jlbunmCbTBA?...
