I'm sure this is super obvious, but don't feel shy to lean on your publisher and their marketing people & ask for guidance - they'll LOVE to know you're up for doing essays etc and want to help you pitch/suggest good places to do stuff.

Try and hold off on the parties for the first night or two so you can have a clear head, write for 2-3 days, so you then feel you've achieved enough to actually really enjoy the following parties!

β€˜to be Hungarian is not to belong to a people, but instead it’s an illness, an incurable, frightening disease, a misfortune of epidemic proportions that could overcome every single observer with nausea’

4 years of work, writing, research & collaboration; a lifetime of thinking. β€˜The Book of Mysteries: Wild Time and The Ritual Year’ final edits went off to @pushkinpress.com on Friday - feels like a birth and a death all at the same time! Which, honestly, is very apt.

Happy birthday dear Adorno. Of course you were a Virgo.

Can Socialism Solve the Climate Crisis? Governments globally are failing to combat climate change because they prioritise profit over the planet β€” for real change, the capitalist mode of production must be overhauled.

'Our politicians like to say that climate is a complex problem and difficult to solve, but this is false. It is, in fact, extremely easy.'

Brilliantly clear eyed & important article from @jasonhickel.bsky.social on how we can fix the climate crisis right now. 🌎

I suppose it should be some weak comfort that with each ill advised, morally bankrupt lurch to the right, Labour dooms itself more thoroughly.

Another horror story of a Palestinian student with a full scholarship at Glasgow Uni trapped in Gaza because of Home Office Bureaucracy. He has two weeks until his course starts.

[I won’t be able to write from the grave] - Griffin Poetry Prize I won’t be able to write from the grave so let me tell you what I love: oil, vinegar, salt, lettuce, brown bread, butter, cheese and wine, a windy day, a fireplace, the children nearby, poems and song...

Literally wrote to my friend yesterday 'why isn't Fanny Howe published in this accursed country,' and now I find out she's dead. The og, the blueprint, the oracle. The hugest loss to poetry and art and life.

The left is/can be fun, sexy, beloved, joyful. Try and watch this without beaming - he makes his constituents so happy!

British left - this can be us baby. The only way is up. 🌞
