We don’t begin; we rearrange. With Julian’s words in my ear, I unpack the paradox of enclosure and porosity. I follow the thread from medieval cells to modern leases to ask how desire builds and rebuilds the rooms we live and write in. open.substack.com/pub/evennowthe…

I can spend hours wandering in bookshops. Why? Perhaps to brush up against that old sensation of cultural chance: to encounter a book not because an algorithm has fed it to me, but because my eye fell upon it on a shelf. open.substack.com/pub/evennowthe…

No money for people with disabilities. No money for the elderly. No money for children in poverty. Always money for war.

Statement from Abortion Rights on Trump’s election. Kerry Abel, Chair of Abortion Rights said: ‘Trump boasted about killing Roe v Wade and overturning the decades long right to abortion. His election today will reinvigorate the most extreme anti-choice activists. 🧵1/2

We're going to hear a lot about fascism if Trump wins. Disaster Nationalism (buy now! buy several copies!) takes that threat seriously. But what are we calling fascism? Let's take a wander through the archives of historical experience. –RS

🚨Just days after @CIJ_ICJ ordered Israel to halt its offensive in #Rafah, the Israeli military has instead doubled down by firing missiles at a tent encampment in a ‘safe zone’ of West Rafah, next to an UNRWA warehouse. At least 45 Palestinians have been killed & dozens injured.

@writetoempower Congratulations Christina, how wonderful!

Still can’t quite believe I made the National Poetry Competition longlist, especially since they had over 19,000 submissions! Big thanks to the judges and many congrats to the other long listed poets! 🎉

The way Owen Jones lays it all out here is as damning as can be. The absolute adoption of Tory economic policy by the Labour Party: keeping a child benefit cap whilst refusing cap on banker's bonuses. Gaza "adding moral indeceny to dishonest & vacuity." We all deserve better.

EXCLUSIVE: A British mother being investigated for a suspected illegal abortion had her existing children removed from her care. After five months of work, @tortoise can report details of this case for the first time ⬇️ tortoisemedia.com/2024/03/08/chi…
