why won’t you let me live my life

@Aaaaannggg Hahah what a choice. Not sure I ever saw that the first time… curious now 🤔

@grrrrace Holds up the test of time, not problematic in any way! I watched Mary Kate and Ashley’s New York minute yesterday and 🫣

Bend it like Beckham

One of the many perks of working at one of the best magazines in the world 😉 (@ftmag) is that when you leave they make you something you’ll want to keep forever ❤️ Illustration by @grrrrace, as ever a perfect commission by @shannonzoe11

The Onion has had it lmao

the availability of cheap clothes made with questionable labor standards has made ppl lose touch with what clothes should cost given the work required, the cost of materials, and fair wages

1/8 It’s Children in Need season. I always feel like an absolute grinch critiquing it because it’s so beloved and obviously raises much needed cash. But my ick outweighs my discomfort at being impolite so here we go (a thread)

@sharkdinoshark whaaat

No, it's really so funny, you can write entire threads about how fast fashion literally exploits the labor of millions and is both indirectly and directly responsible for the deaths of thousands and the replies will be like "why do you hate poor people?"

Before the soup action, I did not know that British Petroleum funds many art museums in the UK. since you all have spent all morning talking about how cringe and ineffective that protest was, I now know that British Petroleum funds many art museums in the UK

5th day without power thanks to @BritishGas - another engineer not turned up, no urgency at all in trying to help even though they know we have a baby. Not sure what to do 😭 @BritishGasHelp

whyyy is this so pixelated! see - rubbish at twitter

I started a newsletter! rubbish at twitter and disheartened by instagram so thought this may be something nicer to try. Follow for occasional updates and waffling on about my work etc: mailchi.mp/455773694027/g…

at a time when the average person is struggling to afford to LIVE - so much so that they name a crisis after it - every single one of these changes is focused on making the rich richer. not even subtly but blatantly and stupidly in our faces. they fear nothing.

3/8 This is the working of a political and economic class which sets the terms of debate to be advantageous to their own position and power. They give themselves freedom to propagate their own beliefs as though it were public opinion, while gagging those who dissent.

People are like "the queen isn't responsible for all those atrocities, she just supported them in a highly public, highly symbolic, ceremonial capacity that manufactured popular consent for all those atrocities - totally different."
