Hello. In the olden days we expressed our pop fandom via letters in Smash Hits/Ceefax and the like. What’s the modern equivalent for pop kids?
musician Gary Numan, born March 8, 1958, aged 68
actor Gary Oldman, born March 21, 1958, aged 67
Happy Gary Retrograde everyone!
The next two weeks are the only two weeks out of the year when Gary Numan is older than Gary Oldman

This is a GIANT thought in my brain atm. There are things to be done.

Happy #Valentines! This is the only story you need today. @nadiashireen.bsky.social brings Rachel Bright's words to life - reading it with classes last week I had young TAs gasping at the twist, really taking it to heart, reflecting on their own romantic paths 😁 #KidLitUK #InternationalBookGivingDay

Tweet from Bernie @Artemisfornow Er... you know that conspiracy theory about dogs being banned from certain areas? Even on a lead? Well... it wasn't a conspiracy theory. With a screen shot of a tweet from Camden Council: We're proposing to extend our Public Spaces Protection Order (PSPO) on responsible dog ownership. This could include dogs not being allowed in certain areas in our parks and green spaces. Share your views on this and other issues in our survey by 26 Feb. consultations.wearecamden.org/supporting-com... Followed by a cartoon park scene with dog walkers
Tweet from @Alexarmstrong Now why would dogs be unwelcome in parks and green spaces...

It’s depressing to see how well propaganda works😫
People on X and now out in the real world GENUINELY believe that this is all because of Muslims🤦🏼♀️
There hasn’t been a single case anywhere of Muslims in this country trying to ban dogs or trying to limit what anyone does with their dog
Yet…

Obviously zero reflection in any of this on how operating the largest empire in human history may have turned us into a multicultural nation. We are here because you were there. #Empireland

One of the best origin stories ever put to film.
#TwinPeaks
Andy Burnham - apart from looking like a character called ‘Andy Burnham’ from a 9:00 pm BBC2 drama from 1998 about an ‘ambitious Manchester mayor’- also somehow looks like *every single member* of The Smiths and New Order mashed into one.
🇺🇸 Take a look at this, even if for no other reason than just for some ideas of how to communicate an idea with power-
A magazine page of black serif text on white paper, featuring instructions on how to create a puffin egg cosy from scraps of felt, titled a good idea from Jaqueline Ackroyd. The text wraps around the head of a lovey black and white cartoon drawing of the completed Puffin egg cosy, which has a jolly smiley face and fancy trims around its feet. To the right of it, are cartoon drawings of the component parts needed to make the egg cosy with dotted lines showing where to pin and sew
That *is* a good idea from Jaqueline Ackroyd, beautifully illustrated by Jill McDonald
I am so very sad and sorry to read this, Moose. Sending all my love to you and Karen xxxxx
