Good old English passive aggression.

To the owner of the bookshop in Houston, Texas, who added a handwritten note to my Jane Goodall book, while apologising for the postage fee: you made my day.

"The danger is not that we create a monster that runs amok, or a plague of zombies, or a rogue AI, but that we begin to see ourselves and others as something less than fully human, as machines to be rewired or recalibrated in line with the dominant ideological worldview." - Richard King

When my colleague told me the first ever film he watched in (the old Haymarket) cinema was 'The Dark Crystal' I was in awe - but not as blown away as he was when I showed him the t-shirt I decided to wear to work today.

Techno-capitalists think innovation can save the planet. But that same thinking is what got us here An upside-down mindset is emerging around the world. We have to rethink our relationship with the environment and the technology that has caused it harm

Imagine how much Donald Trump and Netanyahu would rage.

A beautiful song by a great band, who I watched support Death Cab For Cutie a few years ago and became an instant fan of. Glad to see them back with a strong new album 'Straight Line Was a Lie'.
