@davidmbarnett @laurenlaverne @BBC6Music I went to both the Glastonbury and the Tribal Gathering. Spent all my Glasto money on the first day on an excellent massive-collared 70s fake fur coat then made one portion of chips last the weekend..

Can't remember the last time I was so moved by a piece about the necessity of maintenance. Featuring Sun Ra, "software with INFINITE patience", and a tool that connected Bronze Age words to modern ears the world over. Must-read. https://www.inputmag.com/features/tropetrainer-thomas-buchler-torah-software

Just another day having my mind blown by the rabid insanity of all this. Transwomen are women. Detransition, Baby is a brilliant book. And, generally, if yr viewpoint aligns with the Mail *and* punches down to a group that already suffer so much, worth a speedy re-examination. https://t.co/qADzxDJsVc
