I’ve told you many many times, it’s a loud world now and the churn is high.  Listen and learn. Be mindful.  Even out here on the Thames Delta, where some of us think this is all happening a very long way away – it never really is. And stay safe. You already know all this…. But in case anyone actually for some reason needs to see me say it: fuck racism, defund militarised police, and, while we’re at it, fuck transphobes too.
