Want to be clear that the predictable violence against the police wasn't the only problem with yesterday's march

It's that 100,000 angry racists gathered in London for the biggest racist march in 50 years, and anyone not white had to steer clear

The govt can't see that because they are inadequate.

I shouldn't be shocked, but I'm still always brought up short to realize how many people think "civility" means "white people speaking in relatively calm voices" no matter what vile shit they say.

I have been ill twice in the last couple of months. At least one bout was Covid. Snot girl summer for me 🤧

This is how I do it… bsky.app/profile/step...

Can only describe this as ‘No nonsense horsey woman’ 🐴

Another gag for my show just handed to me on a plate

I have to find a way of taking my show to Edinburgh next year. I would have LOVED to have done it this year, but I just didn’t have the funds. Not sure how I will next year but a gal can dream. The FOMO is real.

Only 2 more chances to catch my solo show before I go home to sleep for 100 years! Susan Harrison: Should I still be doing this? Gilded Balloon, Appleton Tower, Pip 7.40pm. See you there?

Thanks!!

There’s me thinking oooh I’ve learnt a thing or two from Slow Horses - I think the pointing in my direction and the crossing the road after I crossed twice while the other stayed back was a bit of a give away.

I got followed by two men on my way to work this morning (I think in attempt to mug me). Just a little bit of feedback for them: You’d both make terrible spies.

(I’m ok and safe!)

My toxic trait is thinking that after diffusing ONE argument between two housemates is that I should train to be a peace negotiator

Lyn Gardner on underfunded home-grown shows at Edinburgh Fringe At Edinburgh Festival Fringe, the gap in financial support between overseas and home-grown companies is increasingly evident in production values, says Lyn Gardner

“Starved of investment, British theatre has been cut to the bone. On the fringe, you can see the bones, and you can see them crumbling in front of your eyes.”

Polished fringe shows from overseas shine an ugly light on UK arts funding, says Lyn Gardner 👇

I don't want to post things at an optimum time. I want to post things when I want. and I want the people who have CHOSEN to follow me to see what I post! That this basic demand is too much of social media companies to ask is so annoying

What if journalists could beat misinformation by using the same tactics as influencers?

Until now, only a few could - but today, many more will be able to (!).

I’m so proud to share that Sophiana, my video-scripting app, has launched on the App Store.

Tell me there was a drag artist with a sign that said ‘This Queen says no Kings!’ yesterday?! #NoKings

Always fun to watch them try to pretend they're not basically eugenicists who only want the "right" kind of people reproducing

Happening now: twelve activists including Greta Thunberg are en route to Gaza aboard the Freedom Flotilla, with the goal of bringing much needed aid to Palestinians, breaking the Israeli government’s genocidal blockade starving over 2.3 million people.

I think a chronological feed is great though. I don’t want my feed to be curated by what the platform thinks I should see. I want real time.

I also think people are so used to being fed a curated non linear feed that the linear feed on Bluesky is confusing. I’m finding myself instinctively pulling the top of the screen down to refresh the content rather than scrolling down.
