I started a war on the war on woke a few weeks ago with quite a sweary post. Sorry Mum! You can find that post by clicking on the button below. And I wrote about statues and whether we should put them up, tear them down or just provide some more context around them andContinue reading “My War on the War on Woke – Continued”

Brexit – Long Read
My politics are pretty plain to see. And I’m sure it doesn’t surprise you that I did not vote to leave the European Union and I did not want what’s happening now to be going on. It’s sometimes heart breaking to see what’s happened and how many people were duped into believing our lives wouldContinue reading “Brexit – Long Read”
Our New Prime Minister
Alexander Boris de Pfeffel Johnson has finally, finally left office as Prime Minister after his two month long holiday / cosplay event since being kicked out of office. That sentence probably didn’t make much sense because so many of his ministers resigned that essentially Johnson had to resign and normally when this happens, you’re outContinue reading “Our New Prime Minister”
Call to Keyboards
If you’re a long time reader of my blog (hi Mum!) you’ll have noticed every now and then that I get a guest author in to write a post. Normally they come to me and express an interest and I tell them to get writing. So far I’ve had two guest authors and I’d likeContinue reading “Call to Keyboards”
Resentment
I’ve mentioned resentment a couple of times before, last week specifically when writing about loneliness. You can check out that post by clicking on the button. I find resentment to be a clingy emotion that can smother you. Whenever I feel it, it sticks to me and I struggle to get it off. If you’veContinue reading “Resentment”
Loneliness
Loneliness has come up as a topic in my wanderings a lot recently. I read the other day that men in their mid twenties to mid forties are more likely to feel lonely than women in the same age range and I heard the topic being discussed on the radio. This got me thinking andContinue reading “Loneliness”
My War on the War on Woke
Let’s start with a definition and then I’ll get into my sweary rant: Alert to injustice in society, especially racism. Woke Fuck you with your war on woke. Fuck you if you think being alert to injustice is something to be ashamed of. Fuck you if you think you can attack me because I tryContinue reading “My War on the War on Woke”
Captain Update
Definitely first and foremost, huge, massive congratulations to the England football team who won the European Championship last weekend against Germany. A tense match, hard fought and we managed to not let the match go to penalties, because we all know that doesn’t end well for us. And it means I can use one ofContinue reading “Captain Update”
Politics
I am fucking fed up with politics at the minute. So I’m going to whinge about it some this week. Since 2016 I’ve been waiting and hoping for the day that I don’t need to think about politics too much during my day to day life. I mean I don’t actually need to think aboutContinue reading “Politics”
Richard III – Summer Show
So I come to the final post in this triumvirate of wafflings about Masque Theatre. This year’s summer show is Richard III, directed by John Myhill and superbly assisted by Becki Cockcroft. I’m in it! It’s been a fun rehearsal process so far. We’ve mostly held rehearsals outside to try and stem the possibility ofContinue reading “Richard III – Summer Show”
