I wrote about my experience of love—where intimacy has grown to feel unexpectedly political—and about parts of the N. Ireland I know. The binaries are more unstable than often depicted. We're still in flux. I'd say the most personal and challenging piece I've written. @MinorLits

The other night at an event, my cunning friend kept enticing people to read my essay on love and N. Ireland by telling them it was about sex. . . @MinorLits

"He was born a Catholic, and I was born a Presbyterian. We were raised on opposite ends of the Glenshane Pass. Until his teens, he knew only one Protestant family, who’d lived in a crumbling mansion."

Do read this if you're interested in love/ conflict/ the north of Ireland/ NI/ separateness/ reconciliation/ truth x

[ELON FOUNDATION @MrElonn_0]

So much wisdom here about the mentality of tribalism & how, if we let it, it will stoke the engines of perpetual discord. @crawjill's writerly talent makes her arguments fluid & uniquely articulate. Her personal experience of sectarian division makes her take entirely credible.

"This relationship is causing us to grapple with questions and burdens that belong to us and don’t ... We are attempting to decipher a puzzle that’s perhaps unsolvable ..."

"There’s no hierarchy in dead bodies and mourned human beings. The dead aren’t ours to categorise and rank. We aren’t entitled to appropriate or elide them... We must let in all the dead and remain conscious of all of them."

'"The Illusion of Purpose" (is) questioning the relevance of the physical in our increasingly virtual age, and in a world of communication hijacked by technology.'
— Victoria. J. Dean

[Jill Crawford @crawjill]

While looking for images to share with a forthcoming piece of writing, I found the work of Belfast photographer Victoria J. Dean. I love these. Am not a city one at home so, to me, the countryside and coast are more lucid, sticky and ghostly.

[Calvin Quek @clearroads]

A very well written review by Darran Anderson - textbook example for how to write an unfavorable critique with verve and conviction, without coming across as being too harsh or unfair.
