Somewhere in the last seventy years, the conversation got inverted. The ruminant that builds soil, sequesters carbon, requires no inputs, and produces complete nutrition from inedible grass became the environmental villain. The monoculture system that destroys topsoil at ten times the replenishment rate, creates marine dead zones, collapses pollinator populations, and requires fossil fuels at every stage of production became the sustainable alternative. The animal fat that delivered fat-soluble vitamins and stabilised cooking became the heart disease risk. The industrial seed oil extracted with petrochemical solvents became the healthy option. The traditional fermented and preserved foods that required no factory became the primitive choice. The ultra-processed food engineered in a laboratory to approximate the taste of the thing it replaced became the modern, ethical choice. At every step, the thing that worked, that had worked, for millennia, without a supply chain, was reframed as the problem. At every step, the replacement required a factory, created dependency, and generated ongoing revenue. The inversion was not accidental. The inversion was the business model. The cow is still in the field. The field is still there. The question is whether enough people notice before the topsoil runs out.

Marvel has the Avengers. DC has the Justice League. We have Gerald, Keith, and Doris. Three farm animals, each maintaining their respective ecosystems in the specific way that only their species can, connected by the shared experience of being told they are the problem by people who have never been outside. Gerald cannot fly. Keith can get through any fence in Britain. Doris got cast in a dip and walked away with such dignity that the dip hasn't been mentioned since. Their powers are: rumination, persistence, and the particular stoicism of animals that have been doing exactly the right thing for thousands of years and don't need your opinion about it to continue. The cinematic universe begins now. You're not ready.

Doris shears approximately 3-4kg of wool per year. Doris does not experience this as a political statement. Doris experiences it as relief. The shearer arrives. The shearer shears. Doris stands with the specific stillness of an animal that has done this many times and has concluded it ends well. The wool leaves the farm. It goes to a mill in Yorkshire that has been processing British wool since 1887. It becomes yarn, then fabric, then a garment that will last twenty years if treated with basic competence. The polyester fleece on the chair opposite requires petroleum, a cracking facility, a polymer production plant, a spinning mill, and produces microplastics every time it is washed that end up in the water table and eventually the food supply. Doris requires grass, rain, and the shearer once a year. We have banned the import of new petrol cars by 2030. We have not reconsidered our relationship with polyester. Doris is available. Doris has been available for approximately four thousand years. Doris will be in the field. Waiting.

@CheshirePGL @UGLE_GrandLodge @OrderWomen Pity they got so many things wrong and omitted the most interesting fact that the women’s grand lodges started as mixed sex and later chose to become single sex in the 1930s.

@fesshole There are no women in the Freemasons and I think most women could tell you exactly why that is.

I bought some Freemason cufflinks for work and a Freemasons ritual guide off Ebay. I am not one. People are suddenly telling me they are Freemasons and the conversations I am now involved in have led to a promotion. Might now join but it probably means admitting my deception.

@MasonicCatholic @Prestonian2012 @OrderWomen @UGLE_GrandLodge No mason broke an oath. Loge des Libres Penseurs in France invited Marie Desraimes to become a full member in 1882 and the rest they say is history. BTW is there still a Papal Bull in effect banning Catholics from becoming Freemasons?

1. This is the problem. Importing OES seems preferable to tolerating clandestine lodges. 2. Yes, and that’s good. 3. Yes, clandestine lodges can last a long time. That doesn’t legitimize them.

I no longer work at UGLE but I want to say a huge thank you to the wonderful Freemasons who I have had the pleasure to work with over the last 4 years. You should always be proud of who you are and the huge contribution you make to your communities and society in general.
