At work our race equality allies group will be holding an event on what proactive allyship looks like in the current climate. I co-chair it so if anyone has ideas please get in touch. We don't want the people affected always having to take up the mantle. It's on all of us to say no, not here.

Many people & organisations seemed to freeze last summer, not wanting to seem 'political', but at the heart of this is people having to have conversations with their young kids about how to get home safely and where to avoid. It's not on and not the kind of country I want to live in.

Hearing after last summer how unsafe many ethnically diverse colleagues and friends felt going about their day-to-day lives, please ask your colleagues and friends if they're OK, if they need support, if there's anything you can do that will help them feel safer

Message me if you do cos there's a recipe online but it needs a few notes/adjustments. It's still delicious though!

When I get impostor syndrome I'm going to think about the chutzpah of Louis Walsh to put out this Boyzone song, and charge forth #totp

A piece of a terrifying cross between tiramisu and a Jaffa cake.

Multitasking this evening, attempting to make the "jaffamisu" while posting #totp nonsense. Can it be done?

The Glass Essay Night drips its silver tap down the back. SHE She lives on a moor in the north. Spring opens like a blade there. I travel all day on trains and bring a lot of booksβ€” some for my mother, some for me in...

You remember too much,
my mother said to me recently.

Why hold onto all that? And I said,
Where can I put it down?
She shifted to a question about airports.

I know it's not the internet topic du jour, but for the first time in what seems like forever I'm in on a Friday night to watch and post nonsense about #totp
