Launched our beautiful 6th issue last week!! Wild. Theme = FLUX. And given pan-global wtf-ery has only amped since developed that 9 months ago, makes for a mad intriguing read. Really though, that’s down to our brilliant contributors.

Ever so slightly over-excited about 🦀 Ta very much @finandflounder 🧡

“Perception is not something that happens to us, or in us, it is something we do.” Lost 90 mins to looking, smelling, touching, contemplating, smiling, crying @olafur_eliasson sublime In Real Life. Serious treat for body, mind + soul.

Hanging out with the Sun Voyager about this time last week, giddy after a crazy early start, marvelling at all the new blues in Iceland. Happy summer solstice 💙

Every few months, I restaurant-hop sampling weekend menus to bring you the feat of hard-hitting reporting that is the Eater Brunch Map – a heinous task ... Still, the world’s going to pot so why exacerbate the misery with crap cookery. 📷 of new highlights: @jolene_hackney @twolightslondon @pachamalondon (east) @rovi_restaurant @neptunelondon Full thing up @eaterlondon Oh and cheers to discerning dining partners @sophie_hodges_ + @rossaribelfer : )

One day I‘ll learn to take snaps of humans at events. But, for now, here’s a pic of our gorge new issue at last night’s glorious launch party. Gigantic thanks to all who came out to support in that misery-making weather. And special shout out to the dude who trekked out again to the cash point to secure his copies 💕💚

Eek. The next issue of Somesuch Stories has arrived!!! It’s about the role of redemption – and salvation, sin and forgiveness – in today’s society as explored through riveting contributions on pop culture, sexual liberation, spirituality, literature, yoga, film icons, gothic teens, conceptual art, recovery, misogynist AI, queering failure, bad romance, friendship and more by truly exceptional writers. It’ll be in shops soon, but in the meantime you can pre-order via @antennebooks The gorgeous thing was designed by @frasermuggeridgestudio (Also 📷)

Spending the evening with these riveting creatures ahead of Thursday’s @quovadissoho salon. Can’t wait to talk outsiders, imposters, betrayal, gossip, devastating friendships + more with their exceptional authors. Join us from 6.30pm🍸 (Link in bio)
