The feeling of unity soon gave way to anger and division,
in large part due to the Iraq and Afghanistan wars,
begun by the George W Bush administration
and framed as necessary conflicts to help the US win the "war on terror".
“We launched two forever wars that were wholly ineffective at making us safer militarily,
and only sank our prestige in the world
– especially [in] Europe and the Middle East
– at the cost of thousands of American sold…

Racist violence in Belfast.
It's frightening how effectively the Russia-backed far right, assisted by Trump-linked Musk, can fan the flames in Europe.
Exploiting dark undercurrents and vulnerabilities in our societies, using their 'social' media algorithms to divide and rule.

When we asked what people loved about #TNC26 Day 2, here's what they said 👇
They were about people. About being in the same room. About reconnecting and making new friends, and yes, the good weather. Thanks CSC for delivering on your promise ☀️!
The feeling doesn't disappear today. It only gets stronger.
We still have a full day of sessions, more Lightning Talks, and a c…

Content warning: Mental Health, Pacific Northwest

I'm feeling so directionless right now. I was considering moving to the Pacific Northwest, but from the people up there I've talked to, it's getting worse.
When I visited Portland, there were so many tweakers and a furry at the convention literally got beat the hell up.
A friend mine sent me a furry chat up there and it was just filled with a decent amount of people talking about their drug addictions and delusions, was incredibly scary.
To top it off, many of the worst ind…

Doo Doo Doo Doo indeed!
I'm an 80s kid but I've never seen the videos of Bonnie Tyler's greatest hits. They are awesome.
#BonnieTyler

A group of 6 long-haired white women in flowing white gowns in front of a black void. They look like they are in a cult in the 70s and will drink from a poison chalice or stab your heart any minute now. Closed caption reads "Doo doo doo doo". It's a still frame from the music video "I need a hero" by Bonnie Tyler.

I couldn't decide what to do today and where to go. I got up too late for a longer hike due to the heat. In the end I just got on my bike and followed the road and pushed myself for some training effect.
It was a really enjoyable ride except for the last 10km where the heat got really annoying.
Is this a #silentsunday contribution? I think so... No talking, less thinking, j…

Folk who've been following me for a long time will remember that last autumn I was posting pictures of doing the joinery for a new workshop. And then I went mad, and got ill, and for most of this year there's been no progress.
But my friend Lucy has been here for a week, and between the two of us the frame is now erected. Now I need to sort the timber stack (which hasn't been improving while I've been ill), erect a roof, and build some walls. But the bit I couldn't …

Lucy standing in front of the north end truss, which has just been erected and its tenons forced into their mortices with a Spanish windlass. The truss is held upright by temporary diagonal braces. Between the pillars, various carpentry tools lie on a very chaotic timber stack.
The footing of one pillar of the south end truss on an old tree stump. The reason the building is so crooked is because it's foundations are the stumps of four trees that were blown down in Storm Arwen.
General view of the newly erected frame from its north east corner. The chaotic pile of sawn timber runs through it from north to south. Beyond, the trees on the edges of the wood are still standing, but most of the centre was blown flat in the storm, and new young trees are only slowly beginning to grow through the remaining wreckage.
Looking down on the new frame from my bedroom window. One of the new top rails still needs to be cut to length, and there's at least one brace still missing (I'll add more if I think they're needed. This is enormous progress, and a weatherproof workshop will be a great improvement to my quality of life.
