Got quite a shock scrolling to the bottom of this tweet about a very interesting looking article:
In 1965, Malcolm X visited the town of Smethwick following a racist election campaign. Described by the Indian Workers' Association as a “shot in the arm for the anti-racist struggle in Britain”, it’s a powerful story of solidarity.Me for @onlinehyphen.https://t.co/w2rNL8B8Hl— Taj Ali (@Taj_Ali1) June 12, 2023

Simon H?

I've texted him several times (and even left him a voicemail, which I never do in a non-work capacity) to no response, but a year ago someone here said he's doing fine so I'll take that he still is
― Murgatroid, Saturday, 15 July 2023 13:48 (two years ago)
He is.
― Toshirō Nofune (The Seventh ILXorai), Saturday, 15 July 2023 14:33 (two years ago)

He's just totally disappeared, not heard from him in many years.
― Toshirō Nofune (The Seventh ILXorai), Sunday, 16 July 2023 11:13 (two years ago)
I messaged very briefly with him about a month ago!
― Benson and the Jets (ENBB), Sunday, 16 July 2023 11:15 (two years ago)
Ok it was April and just about something that reminded me of a meme we both liked so no info other than he’s still alive and kicking.
― Benson and the Jets (ENBB), Sunday, 16 July 2023 11:16 (two years ago)
Glad to hear that.
― Toshirō Nofune (The Seventh ILXorai), Sunday, 16 July 2023 11:18 (two years ago)
Yeah, I didn’t think he would respond but was happy that he did.

The Pinefox is missed. I hope he reappears, but not in an outdated photo on a milk carton.

Pinefox is always around, he pops in every few weeks in his own inimitable fashion.

Ally

I talked to Ally for a split second at the Morbius memorial but I don't really know her, that was the only time I ever met her. Sund4r I have been in regular contact with, I owe him an email.

say hi to sund4r from me!
ally is fine afaik (we are mutuals on, like, everywhere, tho she doesn't often post anywhere currently)
― mark s, Monday, 20 November 2023 19:45 (two years ago)
Saying it again, for classical peeps seconding Sund4r and also voting Pomenitul again
― deep wubs and tribral rhythms (Boring, Maryland), Monday, 20 November 2023 20:47 (two years ago)
ya i don’t know ally, but i miss that so-long-ago voice too. there are quite a few of those voices, and it makes me think “i should quit.” but that’s quitter talk. i’m more of a “get fired” type.
