Mrs. Henderson - all about love and enthusiasm for the subject, which I hope I also include in my lessons.
Louie Stowell@louiestowell.bsky.social · 5d agoWho was YOUR great english teacher (if you had one)? For me it was Hugh Epstein at Richmond college (RUTC). I hope he's well, wherever he is!
I'm enjoying McKee's muscular writing - but it's not as dogmatic as I'd believed it to be. His insistence on high standards (and the fact most movies are shit) is also refreshing.
*standing up on the plane* Far out among the unchartered backwaters of the western spiral arm of the galaxy lies a small, unregarded yellow sun. Orbiting this at a distance of roughly ninety-two million miles is a small blue-green planet whose ape-descended lifeforms are so amazingly primitive...
Danny Nicholson (Science Fix book out now!!)@dannynic.bsky.social · last wk.*standing up on the plane* It was the dawn of the third age of mankind, ten years after the Earth-Minbari War. The Babylon Project was a dream given form. Its goal: to prevent another war by creating a place where humans and aliens could work out their differences peacefully...
Book 43 of 2026 #Booksky Violent, punchy and funny - and therefore right up my strasse. I've wanted to read Himes for a while, just a shame it's taken me this long. I will certainly be reading more of his work.
Missing you Mum on what would've been your birthday. Always there, always kind, always supporting me in whatever I did. Love you xxx
What an extraordinary juxtaposition.
Adam Schwarz@adamjschwarz.bsky.social · 2w agoWhen the story of why humanity didn't stop climate change is written, it will feature front pages like this. Even as the skies blacken with climate change-induced wildfires, right wing media continue their relentless crusade against measures to tackle it.

Book 42 of 2026 #Booksky Excellent. Not just powerfully written, but also digs into that complex overlap between science and experience. Recommended.
Well, this is a proper blast - and borrowed from my local library. Use it or lose it folks. #Booksky Himes has been on my reading list for ages, I'm just sad it's taken me this long.

Book 41 of 2026 #Booksky I don't read much fantasy, but this has been on my list for a while (I loved 'Piranesi') and I was in desperate need of some escapism. It's a beast, but I'm glad I finished it.

On the plus side, Farage could still lose to a bin.
Good lord, but watching Hitchcock's 'Vertigo' as a 52-year old man with experience of depression hits somewhat differently to when I first saw it as a teenager.
Ahead of England v Norway in the World Cup, enjoy this classic from my old pal Patrick Kidd in The Times
Just heard Farage called Nigel Fauxrage and I will be using this from now on.
His claim to be fighting for the people of Clacton would have been somewhat more convincing if he hadn't been forced to go back more than two years before finding a clip of himself there
Any Clacton residents who want to nominate your friendly neighbourhood intergalactic space warrior, ping me a line!
