This was much fun! Thanks to Luke Dumas, @ashsmash.bsky.social, @babblewocky.bsky.social and @kierongillen.bsky.social for chatting all things villainy and corruption as part of the @britfantasysoc.bsky.social's power in SFFH event. Bring on the (complex, authentic) baddies 😎

Sure, some men are jerks. Like the ‘influencer’ who carried a bath to the top of Snowdon for a selfie and dumped it there. But other men are heroes, like the teenage rugby team who carried it down. Well done lads. We see you. Show your sons. www.walesonline.co.uk/sport/rugby/...

Yes, it's a great city and a treasure box of culture and people. London is a thousand times safer than Mar-a-Lago...
JL KaufmannI feel pretty safe most of the time in London. I am not worried about walking home alone at night. Yes, shit happens, and yes, there are terrifying shitty people out there, but frankly, fewer in London than in other towns and even in pretty villages I have been in.
