"The last few years of apparent stasis and rapid, almost convulsive, change resulting in the creation of new spaces, the loss of old spaces, and the off-and-on of the meanwhile spaces in which many of Sheffield’s creative conversations happen."

A concrete thing every UK person who cares about trans rights can do right now:

1. Email a link of this report to your MP, with highlights from the executive summary in your email. Ask them what it means for your constituency and their party - highlight trans people's legally mandated human rights

PSA - the main lift AND the goods lift at Sheffield station are not working, meaning no access to/from the main entrance or Platform 1. They're advising you exit via the tram stop and walk along the line into town/take the tram 🤪🤪🤪

Delighted to announce that I will soon be the Executive Producer at Interplay Theatre, Leeds!

Really excited to get stuck back into producing and programming a small venue, especially one focussed on families and learning disabled people!

My attempt to be helpful (while also carrying this out as an experiment myself) Anyone who needs a change should fill out form DS-5504, 2009-2017.state.gov/documents/or...
It's free (unless you need it expedited) but it'll probably be slow. I'm filling mine out today and will update throughout

Two panel comic - the first panel shows a tired looking person next to a calendar that read May 31, they're saying "Im tired". In the next panel they are in exactly the same pose but the calendar says June 1, they're wearing a bi flag tshirt and their speech bubble says "Im tired and bisexual"

Happy Pride Month everyone!

Great summary of the difference between successful and unsuccessful applications for Immersive Arts' first funding round (which I didn't apply to!).
