There is of course another solution to the ‘asylum seeker problem’. Start thinking of them as human.
When you do that, the ‘problem’ kind of melts away.

Last night we put on a show to a packed room and raised £300 for Gendered Intelligence and I'm just so happy. Things are difficult but it is possible to find small ways to push back.

Infuriating watching so many people with so much experience be laid off because they're seen as machinery rather than people with specific experience and expertise.

Spoke to a friend recently who had watched a video essay where a mission they wrote and designed got praised with "I hope that they did that then took the afternoon off."
They actually finished that and continued working till 2am. They can never take specific credit for that quest.
an awful part of our industry is that we are quick to say stuff like ‘auteurs are garbage, the team actually made it’ but when specific individual workers supply fantastic craft execution in impossible circumstances execs are v quick to erase that by diluting their credit/selling it as IP

Someone at ACMS did a story and the backing music was The Fragrance of Dark Coffee from Phoenix Wright: Trials and Tribulations, but specifically the jazz version of it that is out of print, not on streaming services, and that I don't think I'd heard since 2007.
So that was distracting.

You were on fire that gig. Absolute Fringe highlight.

Tomorrow doing a comedy show in support of Gendered Intelligence so let's see if I have a functional brain by then.

Oh no I'm back home from the Fringe and now I'm sad (and very tired)
