Stranger on the shore. Content Warning.
It started out as a barely-remembered, hazy and confused dream about standing in front of a canvass, painting a seascape at night. The painting was very much a vague outline and I completely forgot about the dream as soon as I got up in the morning and drank my first cup of strong black coffee. It wasn't until about two weeks later that I had a second dream.

A dishonourable member. Content Warning.
So, Sir Anthony Blair thinks "a woman has a vagina and a man has a penis" does he (Daily Telegraph, 17 June 2024)? I make no comment about the implications of this remark to the current heated transgender debates and online noise, nor about the former UK Premier's views generally. I make no political comment about these issues as I tend not to discuss politics and religion online.
