Trump says "the war is very complete," and he's considering taking over Strait of Hormuz

“Resisting” is a strange way to spell guillotining

Fossilised politics What I’ve found over the last few years, particularly as I’ve engaged with the lives of environmental activists through the now concluding OHEM project is that the continuing arch of the twenty-fir…

Spain's migrants welcome amnesty: 'It will help us in every way' Madrid cites humanitarian and economic reasons to give undocumented workers legal status.

Oh look, a humane, decent and responsible policy towards immigration that the frothing-at-the-mouth racists say can't be done...

Stage with large screen showing a title card of Terminator 2. The stage has all the percussion and synth instruments that will play the live score.

Outside of the Hammersmith Apollo bathed in multicoloured lights, with Terminator 2 live in red letters on the hoardings

Watched T2 live last night and it was 🔥 - not only did the live music emphasise the emotional punch of the film, it also highlighted just how good an action film it is (and blimey does all the Skynet/AI stuff hit A LOT harder today)

That's the unfunniest thing anyone's ever written since Mrs Brown's Boys

Hyperbole is like saying "she smashed it out of the park" or "that's the best ice cream in the world". Calling for someone to pushed out of a plane at 30k feet isn't. Believe it or not, context matters in this world. We all need to dial down the temperature a bit, or is that too hyperbolic?

Given the OP has 'disconnected' my quote tweet but not deleted it, here's @katebevan.com skeet calling for the murder of someone who had the temerity to play music a bit loud.

Yes it's annoying. But the hateful discourse on people who play music on public transport has reached utterly insane levels. Can we save our righteous ire for the people incinerating children please instead of calling for the murder of our fellow passengers?

People need to really get their priorities in order. The world is totally screwed in multiple ways and now we're calling for death (however jokingly) to people who play a bit of music on a plane?

Liverpool and Manchester United complain to X about 'sickening' Grok posts The UK government says it is

“Grok has responded to some users on X explaining its actions.”

Once again, the BBC using Grok’s responses as some sort of spokesperson. The journalism is almost as irresponsible as the actual platform itself

The consent isn't going to manufacture itself

Just fascinating to see Blair, a man whose reputation was ruined by the Iraq war, advocate joining a war that is exponentially stupider and more chaotic. How is it possible to learn nothing from the worst mistake of your life?

This is a straight up war crime. Where are the prosecutions?

The BBC News page still on BIG BREAKING NEWS format with the large header I see. You know that once it reverts to normal, the war would have become just another part of the background noise of the current fascist conjuncture

I appreciate that you have to promote your own books in this overcrowded mediascape, but my word, it's such a guilt-inducing process. I very much admire those who seem to have no problem at all beating their own chest with glee.

Ruben Ray Martinez: Footage shows US citizen shot by ICE agent in Texas traffic stop The Department of Homeland Security did not disclose Martinez was shot by one of its agents until almost a year later.

Newly released footage shows an ICE agent killing Rubin Ray Martinez, 23, in his car in Texas.

"He was shot at point-blank range through his side window by an ICE agent who was in no danger."

Centrism is going to kill us all

This may or may not be the case, but I do think saying this sort of stuff publicly - without hard evidence - particularly when everyone is so crippingly anxious anyway is not a great move....

More evidence that the US is a memeocracy - governed purely by spectacle and necrocapitalism

The House of Lords Digital & Communications Committee just published their report on AI, copyright & the creative industries, and their conclusions could not be clearer.

Almost like appeasing Trump's and Netanyahu's bloodlust is a disaster for everyone.

This is of course all sorts of wrong on a myriad of levels, but perhaps the 'flawless victory' at the end might not go down too well with the families of the dead US military people.
