Gift to self. New Hammer Quad. And nice to get one that doesnt have the recall sticker over Robin Stewart's wrongly spelled name!
Sian Astley's an absolute piece, isnt she? Out of all the words you could use, she find one that equates to humans that are worthless and disposable..Words cant describe my disdain. (That said, I'll start with 'absolute twat of a woman')
A double bill of powerful new drama in Rochdale this Saturday before heading to Edinburgh for a run at the Fringe 7pm Brick 8.30pm The Hunger : A £5.25 ticket gets you in for both, and lots more besides (Pay more if you can) - whats not to love? heywoodcivic.co.uk/event/the-dr...
Reality is manipulated. Surveillance is everywhere. Censorship rife. Deepfakes. Surveillance. Cancel culture. Big Brother isnt watching. He's already inside your head. Fri 8 May 7.30 Touchstones Live at AUGB Rochdale Ukrainian Club www.yourtrustrochdale.co.uk/whats-on/eve...
Data capture Uluseful I guess. Given 2 in 5 at these kinda StraightPrides tend to be Wifebeaters....

Scooping all the @nunkie.bsky.social swag tonight - Great to do our first Harrogate Theatre gig at West Park URC. And some serious Quatermass vibes going on with that backdrop!

Took a bit of a gamble programming it for Valentine's Night in Harrogate but I think it paid off!
Mariposa from De Nada dance was awesome tonight. Literally moved to tears. Didn't know a piece of dance could contain this amount of brutality and tenderness. Kudos to Carlos Pons Guerra and DeNada Dance and Spin Arts - catch it in London at The Place or Leeds at Northern Ballet.

Back where it all started (for me) at Manchester Central Library making plans today with North West Film Archive
This is not a phrase I'd ever expected to read in my home town, but delighted to be lending a hand kicking this fab initiative off today with Rafia Hussain's wonderful hard work and her partnering with Touchstones
Remember that science lesson with smoke under the microscope to show Brownian Motion? Could save em and hour and just show them Leeds station instead...
