Love this little sculpture on the facade of Glasgow University's Isabella Elder Building. I'm not quite too sure what it is (a cat perhaps?), but whatever it is, it looks rather skeletal. #glasgow #architecture #architecturephotography #grotesque #glasgowuniversity #sculpture #cat
🕎🇵🇸 #BREAKING | Hundreds of Jews gathered at Grand Central Station in New York City in a Pro-Palestine protest, "Let Gaza Live"
This is an absolutely excellent book. If you want a glimpse of why the British news media is so toxic, and so unfit for purpose, I recommend reading it
Mic Wright@brokenbottleboy.bsky.social · 18h agoI should take advantage of the opportunity here to say that I have a book. It’s sold considerably more than 106 copies but I would definitely like to sell some more and if you hate everything Braverman stands for, you’ll enjoy it. geni.us/BreakingMicW...
Leftover chips, oh what shall I do? Cook up a panful of saag chips-aloo! #NoWaste #FusionFood #NicerThanExpected
BREAKING Arrests happening today in Stroud as @labouruk.bsky.social refusal to de-proscribe Palestine Action appears to spark a wave of autonomous actions across the country. 40 people were arrested in Leicester on Thursday, most were not breaking any law. Join us: www.wedonotcomply.org
It's the end times for the 200 copies of our first book. 30 or so now still available. There'll be other books but not this one ever again. Individually numbered and sent from the village with a handwritten postcard. Great presents and we'll be sold out by Christmas. www.etsy.com/uk/listing/4...

When you iron a remnant of fabric & suddenly you have a stylised leaping green dog, which is rather lovely! #AccidentalArt
Does it include instructions on how to avoid the Yule Cat?
For clarity, you send these to friends you do NOT want to get eaten by a giant folkloric cat. If you have the other sort of friends, we can't help you, I'm afraid. The Yule Cat will be more than happy to do so!
Thomas S Brown@tomsbrown.bsky.social · 2d agoFor those of you who have friends that you *do not want* to be eaten by a giant cat, we have something for you! thomas-brown-1.sumupstore.com/product/yule...
Ohh... OH! Gentle, disturbing horror that is still somehow kindly... If you aren't reading Willerby stories yet, oh my word, you have so many delights ahead!

Just imagine if the UK had some sort of national broadcaster that had a duty to act in the public interest.

@zackpolanski.bsky.social points out that under his leadership the Greens have had their two best by-election results in the history of the party, and he concludes: "if people are watching & think, I want to see the Greens do better, join.greenparty.org.uk "
So proud of you, Zack & so impressed & inspired by your integrity & courtesy. You have achieved wonders, and we are lucky to have you!💚 Thanks to you & so many others for pulling debate & discourse away from the right. Burnham is under Green pressure & we aren't going away.
Zack Polanski@zackpolanski.bsky.social · 2d agoCongratulations to Sagal. I wish her the very best in representing this amazing place. I'm proud of the campaign we fought. To go from 10% to 33% of the vote share during the PM's 'bounce' is good - but our ambitions are far higher.
Yesterday the bank were BRILLIANT. Today they are a SHITSHOW. AAAAAARGHGHGH
On the day he is a main candidate in a very important by-election, Facebook has *suspended* Zack Polanski’s account. This ON ITS OWN should be reason to vote Green in Holborn & St Pancras. This is foreign interference in British democracy. And guess what, the media (and Labour) is silent.
Kith of The Elf Folk and others (New collection of the work of Lord Dunsany Illustrated by me) is coming out at the end of the month. Do and book site/ media/bloggers want to talk with me about it? I...have a lot to say. #booksky
This is probably one of the most helpful explanations about the Greens ‘Zionism is racism’ policy, and a useful counterbalance to some of the less accurate takes currently doing the rounds.
Annie Gottfried Cohen@annsplaining.bsky.social · 5d agoReading the news, it would be easy to believe that the Green Party has adopted a policy to expel its Jewish members, prevent them from attending synagogue or at the very least scrutinise their activities outside the party. *None of that has happened* 🧵
Today's word is PUSH. Today's #bookQW from SAVED BY THE SPELL out November 3rd. (@dawbooks.bsky.social 2026) Yes, it's another magical school novel, but this time someone asks, "Will no one think of the teachers!?" Available for preorder wherever you preorder things. Shop indie if you can.
One may, in almost any matter, be either over-cautious or under-cautious One can seldom be the exact right amount of cautious Today I feared I'd given payment info to a scam site. I'm glad to report that my bank were brilliant, informative & supportive. I was over-cautious, & have ZERO regrets!
People! Book people, people who love books & people who talk about books! Here is a beautiful thing! Dunsany's stories are rich with ancient & undiluted wonder, & they deserve to be read again. And Thomas Brown's illustrations will carry them like music, deep into your heart.

The Yule Cat cards have been so popular, I've had to reorder from the printer and it's not even mid October! Yay and also thank you! thomas-brown-1.sumupstore.com/product/yule...
Changeling. A Willerby Story. A family goes in search of a stolen baby. willerby.substack.com/p/changeling
Yesterday I sang for the Norton Court Farm Harvest event; I sang my songs of growing, farming, and the Land. It was a truly glorious thing to be part of, joyful & hope-filled. So thankful.
Labour just don't get it. They don't get how scared people are with extreme weather becoming our new normal. We need voices in parliament that will force them to take wildfires seriously, not quietly shirk responsibility.
🚨BREAKING Green Party calls for Thames Water and South East Water to be taken into public ownership WITHOUT COMPENSATION by Christmas Thames Water is insolvent, and South East Water has repeatedly failed to supply water to thousands of homes This is wonderful from the Greens
Holborn and St Pancras is looking incredibly close. Thank you to everyone joining us today on the doorsteps - we know it's only by having conversations with voters that we can win this. With just five days to go - we need you!
