For those not aware, since 2019 I’ve been stuck in a painful and expensive lawsuit to show that I own my work. It’s difficult to keep up momentum and I’m having to re-open my legal fundraiser to get through it. Please donate/share if you can! Thank you x gofund.me/737e54c8

Just spent an incredible weekend at QEDcon. I've had three days of fascinating talks and met some amazing people. If you're interested in Skeptics in the Pub, get to Manchester next year! #qedcon #sitp

'It's the stupidest element of this entire conversation.' @mrjamesob rubbishes the 'nonsensical notion' that people who speak up against racism 'have no idea what it's really like.'

QED is coming up in October and the SitPO team is once again running the QED Attendance Fund to help people get there who would not be able to afford it otherwise. We are looking to fund both tickets and hotels for as many people as possible, and we need your help! Follow the link below if you can donate some money or would like to apply for assistance. QED is an amazing weekend and we want to share it with as many people as possible. sitp.online/qed

White privilege doesn’t mean that you’ve never faced hardship or challenges. It just means that the hardship or challenges you faced were not related to your skin colour. @JohnAmaechi explains it clearly and brilliantly here.

Them in 2022: "Pronouns are ridiculous! Kids are identifying as cats!!!" Them in 1960: "Who's 'she', the cat's mother?" You reap what you sow.

Hey, @destructo9000 I hope tonight's Dead Leg show goes great. I can't make it because I'm seeing @20thcenturymarc do his Pratchett show at Bedford Fringe. You've got an incredible line up: @paulfoot is one of my favourite comedians ever.
