It’s been a privilege and an honour to see the Lindisfarne Gospels in the flesh. @laingartgallery has a phenomenal exhibit featuring this national treasure and it is well worth the visit. The Viking attack on Lindisfarne was the inspiration behind my track “Lindisfarnee”. The lyrics are entirely in Old English and is an account of the sacking of Lindisfarne in 793. The link to the track can be found below and on the Dwarrowdelf Records Bandcamp page. https://youtu.be/45AkMWofeTk #musiciansofinstagram #blackmetal #lindisfarne #lindisfarnegospels #viking #oldenglish #britishhistory #inspired #metalhead #headbanger #bandcamp #itunes #youtube #spotify #metalmusic #blackmetalvocalist #musician #music #release #track https://www.instagram.com/p/CkBKo0_sHQs/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

'Caretakers of the World, UNITE!' It's the school climate strike this Friday in Newcastle - 11am at the Civic Centre. The young people of our planet are showing stronger leadership skills and greater understanding of what is needed to make the future a better place for all of us. Governments, huge companies and many of us are not doing enough. We should be ashamed of ourselves... This piece called 'Caretakers of the World, UNITE!' was made in response to a call out a number of years ago made by @saw_newcastle to the return of the Lindisfarne Gospels to the North East - hence the 'carpet page' design which has a map of the World inside. As an environmental art activist, this seemed an excellent opportunity to create a piece of work which celebrated the beautiful colour, storytelling and importance of the Lindisfarne Gospels and the story we need to be telling the world - we are only caretakers of our planet and need to take care of its future. It is made using 'hooky mat' technique, which was a technique often used in mining communities to create beautiful rugs using old fabrics - reduce, reuse , recycle. #climatestrike #studentclimatestrike #climatechange #climateaction #actionfortheplanet @ukscn @xr_youth @extinctionrebellion @extinctionrebellionkids #reducereuserecycle #map #lindisfarnegospels #hookymat #hooky #matmaking #rugmaking https://www.instagram.com/p/B8euyXnJ4rh/?igshid=1ixs5p1y3ivlg

The lovely @742evergreenterrace tagged me!

Rules: tag 9 people you want to get to know better/ catch up with!

Last song: out of my mind by buffalo springfield

Last movie: my beloved broadcast news!! Treated it as a capper to the albert brooks mini series ive been treating myself to

Currently watching: I am plowing through the OC after only watching it sporadically on reruns as a tween but I'm running out of steam FAST with its shenanigans. Also rewatching the x files with my dad of an evening (as is apparent from the blog)

Currently reading: Sharp by Michelle Dean which chronicles the lives of the most famous women of letters - starting with Dorothy Parker and ending somewhere around Pauline Kael I think? I've also been dipping in and out of my Mary Oliver collection on nights I cant sleep, which are becoming less frequent with Mary's help ❤

thinking about these tweets again

'Nu scylun hergan...' So begins Caedmon's Hymn, written around 670AD. Here I've written it in runes, using willow charcoal. It means 'Now must we honour...' I only realised recently that Caedmon, who looked after the cows on Whitby Abbey plain, would've in fact used runes, not the Roman alphabet that we know: that was what the monks used and they wrote in Latin. By contrast, runes came from the 'Futhark' which was the alphabet used in the north of Europe before the Roman alphabet came into use. We can still see it today on Celtic, Anglo-Saxon and Nordic monuments and gravestones. So maybe I should have written Caedmon's Hymn in runes! 🎶✒ #runes #oldenglish #futharkrunes #anglosaxonhistory #caedmon #hildofwhitby #whitbyabbey #englishpoetry #englishheritage #angloceltic #earlyenglish #northseacoast #northumbria #stoswald #lindisfarnegospels #ancientwriting #willowtree #willowcharcoal #charcoalartist #sacredpoetry #sacredmusic # #abundareuk https://www.instagram.com/p/CQZGhwsHIel/?utm_medium=tumblr

[ID: A series of screencaps from the Witcher Netflix series paired with text posts.

1: Jaskier is playing his lute at Pavetta's engagement in episode 4. The text post is a Tumblr post by user dakotajohnsongf that reads "i would rather die than market myself on linkedin. it's the modern day version of a peasant doing a little dance to convince the king to let him live".

2: Geralt is seen from the chest up. He has one sword on his back and is looking to his right with an annoyed expression. The text post is a Tumblr post by user writhe that reads "i pulled the sword from the stone but got shy and put it back. hope nobody minds"

3: Yennefer is seen from the chest up. She is standing in a group of people (probably at Aretuza). She is looking to her left with a neutral, almost surprised expression. The text post is a Tumblr post by user jakemorph that reads "if you were in the jury of a woman getting trialed and her defense was "well im just quirky" would you let her go free? keep in mind if you don't you're a misogynist"

4: Geralt during the fight in Blaviken in episode 1. He is turning around. The text post is a Tumblr post by user my-gender-is that reads "my gender is slightly lifting up your gender's chin with the point of its sword"

5: Yennefer is almost naked, trying to call the djin in episode 5. The text post is a Tumblr post by user georgegordonbyrons that reads "i can't talk rn, i'm doing hot girl shit *reanimates a corpse*"

6: Jaskier and Geralt are walking away from the mayor's house in episode 5. Jaskier is talking animatedly, Geralt is looking at him. The text post is a Tumblr post by user gayarsonist that reads "everywhere i go i'm pursued by beautiful women 😏 pursued with intent to kill that is"

7: Yennefer is protecting Queen Kalis in episode 4. She is turning around with a shocked, almost fearful expression and blood on her left cheek. The text post is a Tumblr post by user lindisfarnegospels that reads "i'm not wife material i would kill and eat you"

8: Geralt is walking through an alleyway, wearing a hooded cape. The text post is a Tumblr post by user lezbianz that reads "freak in the streets completely normal guy in the sheets. i walk outside and people go "oh my god what is wrong with you" and i also only enjoy 100% vanilla sex"

9: Jaskier is standing next to Geralt who is pulling a net out of the water in episode 5. The text post is a tweet by user nina @ninalaw22 that reads ""rat bastard" is a really funny insult to me because it implies that not only are you a rat, you're a rat born out of rodent wedlock", sent on 27th March.
