When we first started recording Prizefighter, Gracie Abrams and Aaron Dessner were working upstairs at Electric Lady. We’ve followed Gracie’s career from the beginning, right from when she started, and think she has turned into one of the world’s most interesting artists with the most amazingly lazer-like sensibilities, taste,...

People are trying to make sense of why Reform have put forward Laila Cunningham as their candidate for Mayor of London. Is she a real Muslim? Is Reform containment? The simplest answer is that Cunningham is only interested in politics as a path for self-promotion. She's a grifter. She saw Reform are likely to form the next government, rote-learned the slick "British values" talking points to get ahead in a party desperate to not be called racist, and was pushed as the progressive-proof face of the party. Everything she does is to increase her personal advantage. She made headlines with her "supermum" citizens arrest stunt. She was in favour of hate crime legislation when it benefitted her. She wrote Woke poetry about how London's diversity was its strength — words which could have come straight from the mouth of Sadiq Khan. Then she jumped aboard the Conservatives when they were in power. She took selfies with everyone she could, because it was more important to be seen at functions than to be actually doing anything. She went to Pride and hosted the first Iftar event as a Councillor for Westminster North. The contradictions don't matter. She doesn't believe anything consistent. These are just the rituals of being a part of liberal political circles. The passwords you have to speak to be part of the club. It gatekeeps in favour of shameless grifters. She only pulled out of being the Conservative Parliamentary candidate for Rotherham right before the 2024 election. What connection does she have to Rotherham? None, since she loves London so much that she's always lived there and wants to be Mayor. She just took the seat as a nonwhite Muslim woman, until she realised she couldn't win and it would damage her future prospects. We shouldn’t trust Cunningham. Not just because she's a Muslim, and both the British right and public at large don't like Islam. We shouldn’t trust her because her entire political career appears to be about making her famous. She wants to be in power and on camera for the sake of it. She isn't really all that interested in philosophy or policy. Otherwise, she wouldn't be reciting insults like "far right" or pushing the incoherent platitudes of "British values", because neither stand up to scrutiny. It's a grift. And if we want an effective right-wing in this country, we shouldn’t reward it.

Amina had always believed fire was alive. 🔥 When she was little, she would sit by the cooking flame and watch it dance, whispering promises to it. While other children feared the heat, she dreamed of mastering it. She wanted to be a fire magician not for fame, but to turn fear into beauty, to shape flames into light that could inspire people. Years later, under a quiet night sky, Amina finally performed her first real fire ritual. Her hands trembled, but her heart was steady. The fire rose higher than she expected, wild and untamed. For a split second, it slipped beyond her control. A sudden burst of heat flashed toward her face, and the world filled with brightness and pain. When she woke days later, the mirror beside her bed told a story she wasn’t ready to read. The fire she loved had left its mark. Her once smooth skin was scarred, and with it came a wave of grief. Amina turned away, feeling as if her dream had burned with her reflection. For weeks, she hid from the world. But one evening, as the sun dipped low, a small candle flickered on her windowsill. She stared at it, her chest tight. The flame was gentle, almost apologetic. In its glow, she realized something: fire had never promised to be safe only honest. Slowly, Amina returned to her craft. This time, she didn’t chase the fire. She listened to it. She learned patience, respect, and balance. When she finally performed again, the audience didn’t see her scars first. They saw the way she moved with the flame calm, graceful, fearless. And as the fire spiraled around her hands, Amina smiled. Her face carried the memory of pain, but her spirit carried something stronger: resilience. She had not lost her dream to the fire. She had been reshaped by it, just like the flames she now guided with quiet mastery.
