British voters: we booted Labour into 3rd in Gorton + Denton and elected the greens because we are sick of suffering poverty + marginalisation while you prioritise the affluent. We need policies that will help us

Keir Starmer: I have heard the voters + will give them what they want. War with Iran

Painted for an hour, was rubbish.

Having some potato wedges as compensation; just like Van Gogh

Hannah Spencer walking into Westminster, sucking her teeth, tutting, and muttering "tell you what, you've had some cowboys in here."

I understand that generalising is bad, but it's also important to highlight negative experiences, I think. Otherwise things don't change?

I feel a lot of shame and anxiety about the practice or worship, I find it heartening that someone's said it

"Are our [spiritual] practices ... creating space for diverse ways of being faithful, or do they quietly reinforce a single, idealized model of Christian life?"

- for some Christians – particularly autistic and other neurodivergent people – many commonly assumed rules are simply unattainable.

Apologies to all of Hannah's customers!

Something exciting is happening. Be a part of it ⤵️

Isn’t Gorton Denton the police commissioner in Batman

To be clear, this is extremely evil and wrong-headed in concept, but also I'm telling you now that it'll never fucking happen for straightforward operational reasons, namely that you'll never get all those systems and databases to talk to each other.

I've taken to painting memories of places, rather than depicting places.

Oil on wooden board

I'm in full time work, and don't trust the NHS with my welfare. If I didn't have an excellent employer, I would be hopeless.

People don't see disabled et al people as full, human people like them. We're lesser, morally or something

I think about memory a lot these days. Because I forget a lot. It's like we remember feelings, rather than literal facts

I just listened, coincidentally, to the soundtrack 😂 I love it. I listen to it while I paint

Oh God that makes me HAPPY 😭

Why do I feel like we will be punished for this good weather with bad

You look SO good

see that's that bullshit

a tic is involuntary, but BAFTA not saying anything to Delroy Lindo and Michael B. Jordan afterwards is a choice

i'm logging off because this Discourse is getting Bad - lots of middle class people shouting into the void about how being middle class isn't 'bad'.

fwiw i think class privilege is bad, not class culture per se!

and that's the thing, it's an emotive issue! and people will use emotion to make your point irrelevant, which sucks

am i living in the 1960s in a terraced house without prospects and a seething bitterness?

who can tell

academically i may be wrong lol, it's just this is my experience of people
