It’s come to something when a photographer has to get legal advice, before displaying this photo in an exhibition, due to the risk of being prosecuted as a terrorist, but that’s exactly what I had to do yesterday. What a state this country is in.

"Christian nationalism" in the UK is essentially a post-religious identity. Unlike the evangelical right in the US, it has no theological content, does not require belief in God & demands no moral or religious commitment. It reduces Christianity to a cultural "heritage" to be "defended" from Islam

Comments on the OP are restricted but am I the only one seeing a woman’s profile on the right hand side of this image?

OK. This is darn near the coolest footage of anything I've seen.... ever.

If you like this work, it and two other working papers on rent control are on my website and a re-post would be helpful for my job market search!

The Northern Line, if it were proper Northern. (Made this a few years back, but thought I’d whippet out again.)

RTÉ News: Israel declare 'football has won' after Irish squad vote www.rte.ie/sport/soccer... Shambolic failure of principle by the FAI and the Irish team gives the cynical IFA a PR victory. FAI and UEFA should have prevented this and shielded the team but they they are adults with moral agency.

The tuition fees are £9,000 a year but you get a free 2:1.

Certain numbers accompany us through our lives, connected to our memories of people and places, of significant events. What numbers remain with you decades later? And why? This poem is taken from Whatever You Do, Just Don't (HappenStance Press, 2023), my second full collection...

A formative thing for me was that I got a temp Civil Service job one summer working in the Dole office. This was around 2012.

Keeping a Parisian apartment cool during a summer of record heatwaves, without air-conditioning, is no easy feat, @mireio.bsky.social writes. Learning how to passively regulate the temperature of your home can provide a valuable introduction to global energy management and planetary care.

I must be really old now. Radio 6M - what the?

John Healey is out and about in south Wales and honestly, every picture is a joy

They disinvented the VCR. You might think that the reason we don't have VCRs anymore is because VCRs were supplanted by DVDs, PVRs and streaming, but that's not the case. They had it in for the VCR from the very start, and they never stopped trying to kill it. Eventually, they succeeded. 1/

Nice one Carlsberg.

The full statement from UEFA is remarkable. Members vow not to participate in FIFA competitions unless the entire proposal is scrapped and assurances are made it is gone for good.

Topical this am with talk of an AI Cabinet minister.... Time to get the strategy right rather than naive boosterism....

Oppenheimer is another example where the lower-budget BBC did it better discontinuednotes.com/2023/07/24/d...

Utter, utter joke of a decision.

Was Gianni Infantino made by Gerry Anderson?
