So many England and Union flags out all over the place in York today, it’s a bit like being back in Glasgow. Makes it easier to spot your racist neighbours though I guess. Reminded of this Fugazi lyric: “We draw lines and stand behind them That's why flags are such ugly things”

After the trans rights protest in York this afternoon - a beautiful show of collective resistance which made me feel proud to live here and be part of this community - I just keep thinking of the trans and non-binary people I saw weeping in fear and despair - some strangers, some people I love. 🏳️‍⚧️

Known as Kirie in Japanese (translated as “cut picture”), the traditional art form involves cutting intricate forms from a single sheet of white paper and contrasting it against a dark background.

These beautiful gems are the work of my wonderful partner, @kennymooney.bsky.social 🥰

It was good of Japanese Breakfast to make their forthcoming album for me personally.

As a person with a strong and specifically working class West Yorkshire accent, this does not surprise me.

Given how much I talk IRL you’d think I’d love a platform like this. Turns out that talking to no one in particular and therefore Everyone in the World yet simultaneously Literally Yourself is not as easy as they make it look. Schrödinger’s audience.
