Off to see this next week. It'll be a really interesting experience to immerse myself in a world where you get punished for expressing objective truths and people try to police the inside of your own skull. ;) 1K views · 30 likes · 4 reposts · 1 replies 05 Sep 2026 · Open on X →

I usually have at least two non-fiction books on the go, plus one novel. Occasional poetry. Political magazines or lit journals too. The first two brews of the day = reading, and no interruptions. Them's the rules. Struggle to read more than one novel at a time tho! 1.1K views · 19 likes · 0 reposts · 1 replies 04 Sep 2026 · Open on X →

I've written about all those making frankly ludicrous declarations that the Lindsay Clancy trial somehow means women can't be trusted with anything ever again (link in tweet below) https://t.co/qI6CV5yxUv 3.7K views · 75 likes · 17 reposts · 6 replies 04 Sep 2026 · Open on X →

As a former teacher, I know how demoralised a kid might feel if they want to learn, get ahead, do the right thing, but those who aren't that motivated get all the praise or are handed As despite being straight Ds.

@msjlindsay Sure, and it wasn't normal from 1939-1945, yet most of us still knew what the right thing to do was. It's just sad that the victims are now the new workers of evil.` As Miriam Margolyes said' Hitler has won. He made us like him'. And she's Jewish, and she's right. 1.3K views · 26 likes · 1 reposts · 6 replies 03 Sep 2026 · Open on X →

@msjlindsay @Conviction19c I’m just reading ‘The Stiry of a Strange Time’ by Leonid Borodin today. We are living in very, very strange times. 3.2K views · 36 likes · 1 reposts · 2 replies 02 Sep 2026 · Open on X →

Reminder for those who've never worked in the arts: this stuff really didn't used to happen. It is not normal. It is not ordinary. Do not get used to it. And for the love of god, don't do it. 93.7K views · 2.8K likes · 281 reposts · 76 replies 02 Sep 2026 · Open on X →

@msjlindsay @politybooks Oh, what a bittersweet situation to be happy about a book you wrote about how also you were hounded out of the literary world. I'm still so sorry, but also so happy for you. What a beautiful cover by the way. Looking forward to reading it. 503 views · 17 likes · 0 reposts · 1 replies 12 Sep 2024 · Open on X →
