He/him. Covers the Doctor Who theme a lot. Writes stuff no sane person would want to read. Will finish a project one of these days. PS Fuck the Tories.
I hope I’m wrong: I have to live here, and I’d prefer it if the country isn’t doomed to failure because our ruling class will always wreck it and immiserate everyone, rather than concede an inch of their power and privilege. But everything I’ve seen since 2008 says it is that.
Might've already shared this, so apologies. I had been hoping to finish my Keff McCulloch version of the chase cue from the TV movie in time for its 30th anniversary, but due to recent hard drive SNAFU haven't been able to. Oh well, here's the WIP again www.patreon.com/GeorgeCMusic...

Sometimes I wonder if Elon Musk read more of Hitch Hiker's Guide than the first line of the wikipedia summary, how would he manage to misinterpret the part where a single planet becomes so unimaginably wealthy that it cripples the entire galactic economy and brings about a new dark age?

Deploring Israel's actions as a state isn't antisemitic. Attacking Jews and symbols of Jewish culture in supposed retaliation for Israel's actions is however *textbook* antisemitism and these are not complicated thoughts to simultaneously hold in one's head.

The job of "influencer" has always struck me as the very deepest circle of hell. It's basically a *recipe* for burnout & mental illness. It's just so dystopian that young people see it as one of the few viable remaining careers.

Hey. Tell people when they do good job. When you like the stuff they make. When you like the characters they’ve created. The stories they’ve told. Nobody hears it as often as you think bc everyone thinks everyone hears it all the time. Trust. They don’t. Tell. Them.
Certain 'normal people' do and will destroy everything, on the basis that if they can't understand an experience, that experience clearly does not exist. You are never the benchmark for everybody. Plan accordingly.
This fucking headline. The article itself is actually a fairly thoughtful piece from an autistic writer herself, but if they'd tried putting that title on something I'd written I'd be bloody furious
The BBC edited out an actor saying "Free Palestine" from the broadcast but left the racial slur from the audience member with Tourette's syndrome in its initial airing.
