We're very focused on our campaign against Palantir in the NHS but we can take a break to observe Trans Day of Visibility! Some of us working on the campaign are trans ourselves and allies.
If you're trans and in South Yorkshire, we'll boost your stuff!

£28m plans to tackle Stairfoot gridlock
More lanes doesn't tackle gridlock. We should have learnt that years ago. How about spending the £28 on more public transport and #supertram extensions to #Barnsley ?

Big overlanding trip coming up next week, but for now here's a diversion. Back in '82, long before any of that, I spent the summer three thousand feet underground at a Yorkshire coal mine. Chapter 3 of my serialized memoir is now live on Substack. Down t'pit.

I spent the summer of '82 as a trainee at the National Coal Board. Three thousand feet underground at Grimethorpe Colliery. Riding coal conveyor belts face-down. Shoveling slag. Wearing a bright yellow hard hat in a sea of white.
It was a world already disappearing, though none of us knew it yet. Two years later, the miners' strikes would begin. By 2015, every pit in Britain had closed.
I've spent forty years in the games industry, and this summer had nothing to do with that. Except, perhaps, for my first job porting a little game called Manic Miner. But that's a story for another chapter.
Chapter 3 of my serialized memoir is now live. Down t'pit."

Valeria Guarneros-Meza reflects on her work alongside Barnsley's Educational Learning Support Hub, and highlights the multi-layered ways that precarity stifles community organisations. She argues that solidarity between different social groups is key for overcoming its debilitating effects.

I moved from Sheffield to Barnsley when I was 12. Fifteen miles, but it might as well have been a hundred.
To the uninitiated, the South Yorkshire dialect of the late 70s sounded like a collision between the industrial working class and the King James Bible. We used archaic forms like 'thee' and 'thou' unironically as standard pronouns. While the vocabulary was shared across the region, the delivery was not. In Sheffield, we hardened the sound into a flat, percussive d. Thee became dee, and thou became da. Barnsley kept the softer th, so to them it was thee and tha. Because I arrived with my hard Sheffield d, I was immediately pegged as an outsider. A dee dar.
It wasn’t just accents. The small words changed, too. What I had grown up calling a gennel was now a ginnel, or sometimes a snicket, depending on who you asked.
I remember one lad, Brian Dickinson, leaning over to me and saying, “Eyup, does tha lake football?” I thought he meant like it, so I replied, “Yeah, it’s OK.” But he pressed again, “Naw, does tha 𝙡𝙖𝙠𝙚 it?” That’s when I found out that 'lake' meant 'play,' possibly from Old Norse 'leika.' I had honestly never heard that expression in my life, coming from exotic and faraway Sheffield.
This was an excerpt from the first chapter in my serialized memoir, currently being published on Substack. Read the full chapter here:

All chapters are available for free on Substack, with a paid subscription option for those who want to support the project.

While Googling I came upon this “AI overview”. I can attest that these are true, and I used all of them in my youth. My paternal Grandfather often used, “Nah then,” or more likely, “Nah den,” him being a Sheffielder:-
To say "hello" in Yorkshire, use "'Ey up!" or "How do?", often followed by "lad/lass/duck" as terms of endearment, or just a simple "Nah then", all signaling a friendly greeting like "Hello there!" or "How are you doing?".
