If a great Irish writerโs books can no longer be published in the UK because she stands with Palestine, the question isnโt what law might Sally Rooney have broken, itโs what sort of country has Britain become. irishtimes.com/culture/booksโฆ

๐ฐ Identical front page on every UK paper today, with homepage takeovers too. Only 2nd time this has happened.

I'm winding down my toxic social media accounts. I'll be using them sporadically. For now, I'll be on Bsky and Mastodon (if I'm ever going to use anything). My @HowToBe247 will stay, but I'll be off here soonish.

Ignore the people sneering at campaigners trying to kick fossil fuels out of culture. It's the climate activists who dare to dream of art for its own sake.
