Never understood ‘It’s Friday it’s 7:30 it’s still number one’ intro - what’s number one? You haven’t told us yet!? Or is #totp the number one being referred to? There were literally no other music shows

Spent weeks preparing a 10,000 word submission for a prize run by a publisher I really admire. Chased a few times to see when I might hear back, no reply. They just announced the shortlist and I didn't get on it. Rejection is part of the game I suppose but a blooming email would've been nice.

Group chats with 70k men sharing tips on how to rape women, 1% rape conviction rates, sex offending coppers and a president found liable of SA are the real threats to women. A tiny minority just trying to live their lives, are not. Don’t fall for a far right con job. youtu.be/oojg7g_hn-Q?...

The trans discourse is really depressing me. Why are so few on the left standing up or at least offering some nuance? Giving up on The Guardian and the Labour Party just feels performative I don’t know what else to do.
