Drawing created by Danielle Koren, c.1979, in the art therapy studio at Netherne hospital where she was compelled to live. This drawing on scrap paper is very small, found among Edward Adamson’s files of personal correspondence which contain many cards & letters from individuals sent after release

A cross hatched pen and ink drawing in black and white of two beautiful thin white youths dressed in Tudor clothing, doublet and hose with ruffs. Their dress is masculine but their gender is not obvious, they are reminiscent of Orlando, the one on the right is wearing lighter clothes and has fair hair and stands, arms folded, feet crossed with a ballet dancer’s grace and poise in the foreground, the one on the left has darker hair and clothes and stands hands on hips, left foot pointing out, as if preparing to curtsy. Their shadows are long across the chequered floor and the background is black

Look I know I am not saying anything new here but I am *raging* that a bunch of self-proclaimed 'feminists' are in fact doing the work of patriarchy by trying to force us all back to a place where women must conform to a narrow set of stereotyped standards. FUCK OFF. I LIVED THROUGH THE '90S.

I think we should all be particularly proud of (and I'm not the first to point this out) is that they have also been prompted to lay out in detail, via quotes, all the most serious facts and allegations against him, to a readership that was probably oblivious to them.

The Great Sun Myth, from the producers of Not Quite Walls, Not Quite Gaps: What are Doors? and Trees: What’s Their Game?, will hear from the growing number of professional opinion-havers who are boldly questioning mainstream “science” and “facts”.

The Great Sun Myth: new documentary seeks to answer question – where does it go when it’s dark?

And of course it’s not just the UK media that does this - it’s a greater issue of how civility is constantly used as a cudgel against the most marginalised and oppressed. But the way the U.K. media closes ranks to consistently do this is just…so disgusting.

Really think this is what irked me about him the most tbh. Just a very ugly writer with no real flair or stylistic quality, whose outsized influence in the industry was also indicative of rock bottom standards and scrape-the-barrel prose

The Author, Séamas O'Reilly@seamas.bsky.social · 2d ago

Haters focusing on Liddle's violence toward his pregnant partner, his galloping racism, or his repeated defences of paedophilia, should remember to mention he was also one of the worst writers to ever do it. A calorie-free hack of the first water. Just absolute dogshit, back to front.

look, if fear of having everyone on the internet celebrate your death by bringing up every bad thing you’ve done is what it takes to stop people being cunts while they’re alive, i say let’s give it a go

Being dead is not some kind of state line where, if you can just cross the border, all your trespasses evaporate. The flowers still wither where you poured salt. The living continue to suffer the consequences of your actions. People are entitled to say, he made the garden worse, and now he is gone.
