Vote to strike. Vote to protect our profession. Vote because we should be paid more than someone with a two-year medical model certificate. Vote because they’re taking the piss out of us. Vote because @rthonwesstreeting.bsky.social promised a journey to pay restoration and he’s lied to us.

Fantastic morning interviewing @robbotron.bsky.social for a paper in progress on his amazing game-comedy hybrid show The Dark Room, after an awesome show last night to kick off Falmouth's games Expo. A fascinating performer and a genuinely lovely person with so many intriguing things to discuss.

I cannot emphasize this enough: Please do not use AI tools as therapy. Not only is it not a good replacement for actual therapy, but your chat logs could be shared with the government, and I don't think you need a reminder that especially right now in the US, that could put you in danger.

TIL there’s branches of Catholics who don’t think there’s been a legitimate Pope since 1965 and honestly every hobby has these guys “Star Trek hasn’t been Star Trek since they changed the ship’s name from Yorktown to Enterprise before it went to air! I love the show so much I’ve never seen it!”

This disgusts me. The theatre company that actually programs and runs The Leadmill is world-beating. Why the landlord would turf them out is beyond me.

What different national anthems mean: 🇺🇸 We have a flag and it’s seen some shit 🇬🇧 We keep asking God to save the monarch, but have to change the title every time He decides not to 🇦🇺 We’re a new country surrounded by ocean but by Christ we’ve got a lot of natural resources, come have a look

Australia just had a federal election, where we learned the following: - Australia isn’t America, which everyone knows except the opposition - It’s possible to overcome a media landscape stuffed with U.S culture war bullshit - Compulsory voting + you get a sausage for doing it = engagement!

Fellow authors, I love you, and I know it feels like we don’t have a choice, but B&N and Am*zon both scheduled sales this week to preempt Independent Bookstore Day, a hugely vital source of income for indie bookstores. Please don’t promote their sales; please promote your local indie this week.

PLEASE don’t buy into Amazon’s booksale this week. They are intentionally trying to eat into profits from Indie Bookstore Day this weekend, a really important annual event for our important community institutions. Check out your local fave or bookshop.org.

Tomorrow, a certain online mega-retailer launches a book sale, just days before Indie Bookstore Day on 4/26. This is no coincidence; Bookstore Day is one of the largest revenue drivers for indies. Indies need our support to thrive & build community spaces for all...mega-retailers do not.

You know, clarity is so easy to achieve if you oversimplify the issue and don’t give a shit. Don’t know why I’m thinking of this particularly, probably something the UK Minister for Women and Equalities can figure out.

Here's the secret of "university indoctrination." Professors aren't doing it. Your little darlings are finally meeting a diverse group of people and realising that the stereotypes you've been feeding them are closed-minded garbage.
