  4. being gay in Britain meant living in the shadows

    I grew up in a time when being gay in Britain meant living in the shadows. The 80s were loud with music, fashion, and rebellion, but silent when it came to positive queer representation... At Sixth Form, being 'different' was enough to make people afraid to be seen with you... Music became my friend, my voice, my protection. HEAR THE VERSION THE WORLD TRIED TO BURY“Quick truth.Streaming is convenience. Bandcamp is support.If you want the real version of what I create — the full-quality […]

  5. Slave wages for musicians and artists on Spotify and many other major platforms, except bandcamp and Amazon

    Now I'm going to be honest here, at three pence or less for each stream that you get you can see that you have to have over like 10,000 or more to even get something stupid like 10 pound and so that's not really enough money to pay for services and to save money you have to do everything yourself. So years ago I did this video and to help artists by giving them real money even if it is 50 pence for a song please go to bandcamp Click on link 🔗 for music in comments or bioWatch video by […]

  6. ARTICLE: “Why Artists Should Never Trust Instagram Music Promotion Ads”

    The Problem No One Talks AboutInstagram has become one of the biggest advertising platforms in the world — but for musicians, it’s also become one of the most dangerous.Every day, artists are shown adverts promising:“Guaranteed streams”“£3 promotion”“Blow up your music overnight”“AI video creation for artists”“Wholesale promotion”None of these claims are real.None of these services are legitimate.And none of them follow the rules set by Spotify, Apple Music, TikTok, […]

  7. I’ve learned something important about these bait‑posts

    As a mixed, queer artist who builds everything from lived experience, I’ve learned something important about these bait‑posts that keep circulating online — especially the ones targeting LGBT people or any group that’s easy to provoke.They’re not created for people like us.  They’re created to harvest engagement.Artists who write from identity — who build music from truth, not templates — feel these posts more sharply because they’re designed to pull emotional focus away […]

  8. the kinds of narratives that circulate online, especially when they target LGBT people

    I’m sharing this because it’s important to recognise the kinds of narratives that circulate online, especially when they target LGBT people or any marginalised group. I haven’t engaged with the original poster, and I won’t — not because the topic isn’t important, but because some individuals post deliberately provocative content with no intention of having a reasonable or good‑faith conversation. Their aim is to provoke, divide, and generate as much reaction as possible.  The […]

  9. “We are all individual and we’re different — that covers it all.”

    You’ve seen:- labels invented for fun  - labels used to troll  - labels used to vent frustration  - labels used to mock LGBT people  - labels pushed online as if they’re official  - labels preached at the public without explanation  This is exactly what happened with that LinkedIn post you mentioned — a giant list of labels presented as if they were established categories. That is preaching. And it does make people switch off.Your reaction is logical:> “If you want to be taken […]

  10. Everyone who walked into Heaven for the first time carried something with them

    The arches under the Embankment. The descent into the underworld. The first night at Heaven.I wasn’t the only one who arrived nervous.Everyone who walked into Heaven for the first time carried something with them — fear, hope, loneliness, lust, confusion, excitement, guilt, courage.It didn’t matter who you were.It didn’t matter where you came from.It didn’t matter how confident you pretended to be.Heaven stripped you down to your truth.I remember stepping down those stairs — the […]

  11. PART 1 — The Myth of “AI Slop”

    People throw around the phrase “AI slop” without understanding what it actually means. They use it as a blanket insult for anything created with AI, even when the work is original, directed, and crafted. The truth is simple: AI slop is not about the tool — it’s about the effort.Most of the content people complain about is:genericlow‑effortcopy‑paste promptsmass‑produceddirectionlessmade without intentionThat’s what “slop” really is.But people make a mistake: they assume […]

  12. First Big‑City Club Night (London Version)

    First Big‑City Club Night (London Version)A hidden London gay club, early 1990s, located down a narrow Soho alley. The exterior is mid‑century brick with a black door and no signage. Inside, the entrance hallway is dimly lit with deep burgundy walls, scuffed skirting boards, and posters for past club nights pinned to a corkboard.A small wooden table near the door holds stacks of Boyz magazine and The Pink Paper, their neon covers glowing under a single overhead bulb.The young man, now in […]

  13. Reaching for Gay Times” the moment before a young queer person reaches for a lifeline that could change everything.

    Reaching for Gay Times” A small, narrow London newsagent on a busy street in Soho, late 1980s. The interior is cramped, with tall shelves of crisps, chocolate bars, newspapers, and magazines. Fluorescent strip lights cast a pale, humming glow across the shop.In the centre stands a 19‑year‑old young man, slim build, medium height, dark brown hair styled in a shy, careful fringe. He wears a faded denim jacket, a white T‑shirt, and black trousers, typical of late‑80s London youth […]

  15. Unity
    A direction or colour of politics causes more division. I realise it is naive to not "talk about politics," but we can talk about it differently in the sense we can not add to that division.
    If a conversation subject causes friction, that's ok. It's how we learn and, more importantly, how we learn to think. If that friction is painful, it needs to be examined in a way that supports & develops individual and community growth.
    Some people find that investigation of painful experience/emotion at a particular point in life is too difficult. That's OK. It does not mean I agree with the expression of that learning or pain. It may come to a point where I can't be with that person due to that expression.
    Acceptance is not agreement. Healing has to begin with recognition.

  16. Ah, another #startup enclave where the word "curated" is thrown around like confetti at a low-budget parade 🎉. Because nothing says "empowering #female entrepreneurs" like clustering them into a techie sorority house in SF 🏠💄. Meanwhile, #Silicon #Valley bros everywhere are quaking in their Allbirds.

  18. 🔱 Alquimia Verde: La IA que convierte el desierto en huerto

    La seguridad alimentaria ya no depende solo de la lluvia, sino de la inteligencia aplicada a la biología. Este hito de febrero de 2026 marca el inicio de una agricultura resiliente.

    ▶️ - 🌱 Simbiosis Sintética: IA reprogramando el microbioma de los cultivos para extraer agua donde antes no la había.

    ▶️ - 💧 Eficiencia Extrema: Cosechas completas con un 70% menos de riego. La respuesta al estrés climático.

    ▶️ - 🔓 Código Abierto: El modelo de entrenamiento es open-source, permitiendo que la tecnología llegue a pequeños agricultores sin intermediarios.

    Pregunta para el debate:

    ¿Debemos abrazar esta evolución biológica asistida como nuestra mejor herramienta ecológica o nos frena el miedo a alterar el orden natural?

  19. 🔱 Luz Perpetua: La IA que jubiló a los apagones masivos

    En un mundo cada vez más dependiente del silicio, la estabilidad energética es nuestra primera línea de defensa. Este mes de febrero de 2026, la IA ha demostrado que puede ser el soporte vital invisible de nuestras ciudades

    ▶️ 🧠 Estabilidad Absoluta: Redes neuronales gestionando infraestructuras críticas en milisegundos para evitar colapsos durante tormentas solares.

    ▶️ 💰 Eficiencia Post-Escasez: Reducción del 22% en el desperdicio energético, traduciéndose en facturas más bajas para el ciudadano.

    ▶️ 🛡️ Seguridad Civil: Hospitales y servicios básicos blindados contra el error humano.

    Pregunta para el debate:

    ¿Estamos dispuestos a ceder el control de nuestras redes vitales a una IA a cambio de un suministro infalible y ahorro directo?

  24. Am 24. Oktober ist es soweit! ✨ Gemeinsam mit Ulla Kenntner spreche ich in der Akademie Waldschlösschen über ein Thema, das viel zu selten im Fokus steht: die Lebensrealität von queeren Menschen mit Behinderung im ländlichen Raum.⬇️

  25. 🧱 **Stronger 3D Prints Are Here!** 🧱

    Why wait for the future when you can enhance your prints today? The next big breakthrough in 3D printing is already at your fingertips! By utilizing alternating perimeter layers with a hexagonal wall layout, you can achieve stronger, more durable prints that stand the test of time.

    This isn’t just about improving your prints; it’s about challenging the status quo. The recent video "Brick Layers: Stronger 3D Prints TODAY - instead of 2040 😬" by Geek Detour dives deep into the implications of a 2020 patent that could stifle innovation. After weeks of research, it became clear that there are significant weaknesses within this patent. The more we share this knowledge, the more empowered developers of open-source slicers will feel to implement "Brick Layers" without fear of legal repercussions.

    👉 Watch on Youtube: youtu.be/9IdNA_hWiyE or on inv.nadeko.net/watch?v=9IdNA_h

    As a community, we must not let outdated patents hold us back. Remember, a patent is only as strong as its ability to be defended in court. If challenged, the patent holders may find their claims indefensible when faced with prior art. This is our opportunity to push the boundaries of 3D printing and foster a culture of innovation and collaboration.

    Your support is invaluable in this journey. Together, we can ensure that creativity and innovation thrive in the 3D printing community.

    Let’s unite and advocate for open-source solutions that empower everyone. Join the movement towards better 3D printing techniques and let’s innovate together!

  28. Heute ist Weltfrauentag - ein feministischer Kampftag ✊ 🌏
    Auch im Jahr 2024 leben wir noch in patriarchalischen Strukturen, in denen Frauen den größten Teil der unbezahlten Sorgearbeit übernehmen und auch im Bereich der Erwerbsarbeit schlechter bezahlt werden.
    Von schwerer körperlicher und/oder sexueller Gewalt ist jede dritte Frau in Österreich mindestens einmal in ihrem Leben betroffen.
    Wir brauchen und wollen Gleichberechtigung, nicht nur auf dem Papier! Wir wollen gleiche Chancen, gleichen Lohn für gleiche Arbeit, gewaltfreie Beziehungen, faire Arbeitsbedingungen, Bestrafung der Täter und ein Leben ohne Angst.
