The House of Lords Digital & Communications Committee just published their report on AI, copyright & the creative industries, and their conclusions could not be clearer.

As y'all head off to #awp26, I am calculating our author royalties. I cannot stress this enough - buy small press books directly from publishers. It's the way everyone makes the most money and art can continue to happen!

It's our final tease before the Preloved Stories issue launches on Saturday 🦝

@tracierenee.bsky.social sets the table for more than just those in the home, as a way of letting go

@jdhellenwrites.bsky.social MC struggles to move forward in life, especially when the cheese is so good

You don't have to be young to spot large-scale intergenerational theft.

The tactical voting sites are saying it's between Greens and Reform, Grafters vs Grifters. #GortonAndDenton πŸ—³οΈ

Ancient artefacts, monuments and landscapes should not be in private hands. Heritage should be part of the commons, shared by everybody. 30% of England's land and its archaeology is held by a tiny cabal of aristocrats and gentry, descendants of the thugs who stole it. Isn't it time we took it back?

Just really disgusted by this. They decided to cut a completely legitimate gesture of solidarity, but leave a slur in. Wtf?
Of course the freeze peach warriors are all conspicuous for their silence.

This election is an appeal for trust, a battle against fear and a straight fight between Greens and Reform | Hannah Spencer Thursday’s stakes could not be higher. We know Labour has failed and Farage’s Reform is poisonous. I want to win Gorton and Denton as a fresh start, says Hannah Spencer, the Green party candidate in t...

Reform have nothing to offer but divisive hate. Blaming migrants and communities struggling to get by.

Hannah Spencer understands Manchester, she knows the value of work and will actually get things done.

Thursday - it's Greens Vs Reform. Hope Vs Hate.

National Action Days - Green Party Now is the time to get involved and get Greens elected. See below for action days across the country and sign up now to be part of a winning team.

When I ran for leader, I said we're going to make the Labour Government more worried about losing seats to the Green Party - than to Reform.

We're making this happen in Gorton & Denton. This is about our country.

Volunteer in the next 9 days!

Ireland’s basic income for the arts scheme becomes permanent When piloted, initiative that provided €325 a week to eligible artists recouped more than its net cost, study shows

"The scheme recouped more than its net cost of €72m through increases in arts-related expenditure, productivity gains and reduced reliance on other welfare payments, according to a government-commissioned cost-benefit analysis."

Empower the arts ✊
