Change Trains
Hello
thanks you for the warm welcome to HIVE.
Still don't quite understand it all but we are slowly trying to get heads around it.
anyway
Now I'm posting as a person- not quite as a theatre collective.
We've got a job on today but it is so far away in a different time zone I can't even work out what time it starts. So, thought I'd share a little bit of writing in the meantime in the spirit of sharing and owning content and celebrating that.
Ive always been torn between country and city but have now lived in London for over 25 years, which is weird and sometimes terrifying. Its a big city that takes ages to cross and zaps your strength and spits you out sometimes, the inequality here is stunning :the fancy shops and conspicuous consumption set against the shameful amount of homeless and hungry people living here. But despite all the its contradictions, London is the place I call home and it is diverse and stuff goes on in it and somehow I'm still here. I do sometimes leave it though to look after and visit family. so
This is a sort of ode to London.
Gideon Reeling has got a show in mind that might one day see the light of day and this bit of writing will be in it. Perhaps we will manage to fundraise for it one day- in the meantime.
this is the station that gets me home - there are different routes you can take to the capital from this bit of England's green and pleasantness - one heads straight into central London and others ease the traveller in more gently via changes at quieter stations. Mind the Step
and this is the dog that grounds me sometimes
And this
is a piece of writing.

Hive is a bit different to other social media. The community is small, but diverse. I saw your first post did really well, but that may not happen every time.
I live close enough to London to be able to visit fairly often. @tdctunes has set up a meetup in Brick Lane next week, but there are some train strikes planned, so I need to check I can get there and back. I'm in tomorrow too for a Xmas do.
It does hit me when I see people living on the streets in big cities. I have seen it elsewhere around the world.
Hope your projects are going well. Maybe we will meet some day.

London is a crazy city and sometimes you feel like running away from all the craziness. That's a good piece of writing. I loved both the pictures of the Dog, specially the sunset one
Thanks @nainaztengra . I will let the dog know, she's a tonic to crazy modern living
Sweet stuff Hardcheese!
This could have been written about San Francisco, my home city, except that YOU were the one gifted to write this about YOUR city... well done in giving us the essence of living a grounded and defiant life in London... have you met @valorbeats and @nickyhavey and @vachemorte yet? This poem would be amazing read with some ambient music, and of course I know @stickupboys and @stickupmusic has you totally covered, but if you all want to expand your collaborations, there are some extra names to know...
Would be awesome read over a @nickyhavey DNB track....
That's part of what I was thinking ... DNB ... but also, Valorbeats is lofi ... Vachemorte is a composer that has some cyberfunk/techno/unknown but totally awesome sauce going on, with ALSO some smashing digital art skills ... all of you might benefit from knowing each other on Hive...
Thanks so much thats really nice of you to put that out there.
I'm going to look them all up - thanks for the heads up.
Yeah, maybe its something I should do with @stickupboys sometime.
But new colabs are always very welcome too.
Thanks for the mention - would be happy to have these words on a dnb track. Could work as a hybrid half-time/dnb tune as well!

After doing lots of research and speaking to many other developers on this network, it's become clear that they use these false policing services to demote other projects in order to promote their own paid upvote scams and vote-abuse systems where they demote anything thats not designed to upvote their friends.
