So first tweet of 2020 and it has to be this - loving #JamesMayOurManInJapan? The stint at the Yamaha piano factory was like porn for musicians.
JK Rowling = a #TERF ... how does it feel knowing an entire community of people think you're a disgrace? Your grammar was always atrocious anyway and there's no adverb that can get you out of this so 'slink away snakily/ slipperily...'
Dress however you please. Call yourself whatever you like. Sleep with any consenting adult who’ll have you. Live your best life in peace and security. But force women out of their jobs for stating that sex is real? #IStandWithMaya #ThisIsNotADrill
Tories... again. Terrifying.
So proud of this story, these songs - an exploration of the heart of Bristol and the way in which a blind protagonist navigates her little world... a massive, massive thank you to @eleanor_g2 and @DamaniIrfan for performing 'Colour of Everything' and 'Tether' for us.
Episode 6 is out, and you can hear two of the gorgeous songs by @DeardsJaney with book by @OliverGeorgeCl1 from a show we’re working on. Very exciting!

I just want to thank everyone who shared their art at All That Scratch @TheOtherPalace last night. It was an honour to share the stage with you. Thank you to @eleanor_g2 and @DamaniIrfan for your wonderful performances with such little rehearsal time. xx So proud!

#HisDarkMaterials - last night I made Baileys Hot Chocolate and hunkered down with my daemon - a Fallow Deer Buck - to watch... Mrs Coulter's teal blue coat showed up and I realises that he had yet to settle... now I've an envious snake.

Pylon cut sky... just shudders on as though there's nothing at the end of it Another rainbow with no colours and no bend in it
I love how she tells it like it is!! @alexjacksondir @OliverGeorgeCl1
"You don't look blind" What does that even mean?! @LittleMusic89
This is wonderful - literally touching the universe! #astridblume

#Platform88 - keep hoping someone will catch me smashing this one... despite the lack of sustain pedal. I'll be there next Tues AM.

Oh yes... glad I took the leap of faith and bought stalls tickets. Taking my mum, to watch her cry.
