Last night of vacation. I went to the belfry of Ghent and they were selling copies of this book in the gift shop. @swantower.bsky.social

It's really important to pay attention to the fact that Lula beat the fascist candidate not by compromising and trying to meet fascist voters in the middle, but by sticking to his guns, promising prosecutions for election interference, and mobilising his own voters to turn out in greater numbers.

Serbia: The Serbian Progressive Party (SNS-EPP) has admitted defeat in today's parliamentary elections. The Student List (SL-*) has won a majority of votes. #Serbia #Srbija #Izbori2026

Så… I engelskspråkiga IKEA-appen kan man lyssna på uttalet på produkternas namn. Kul! Och en del låter helt rimliga, men andra är absolut nån pårökt AI-vibe-svenska VAD FAN HAR NI GJORT

Gary Neville commentating on the Man Utd match in the same tone that Walter Cronkite used when announcing JFK had been shot #TheFootball

I am quite genuinely fascinated by the psychology of this. After two or three Facebook posters for local events which were so busy they honestly made me feel a bit nauseous, I snapped and said that AI posters give me headaches. And the person who made this this asked me HOW I CAN TELL IT'S AI:

In 2016, we published potentially the largest single feature to ever appear in Game Informer magazine with a full oral history of the legendary studio, BioWare. We've made that feature available online following reports of the studio's impending closure. gameinformer.com/feature/2026...

We come back to the idea of Execs who really don't understand art or why people make art, in any way, finding ways to absolutely annihilate those that do, in a death of a thousand cuts and then one big 400-person cut. It's heartbreaking. The western games industry kills a NIntendo every year.

In case you're wondering how European "liberalism" is doing today, Sweden's L leader said: "We stand closer to the Sweden Democrats (than Social Democrats) in the direction we want to take Sweden in." SD is a neo-Nazi party that had a former SS member among its founders. www.svd.se/a/8G1za2/sim...

Every five years, three women are incarnated as Sugababes. they are loved. They are hated. In two years, they are dead. Sorry, getting handed a note, apparently they are NOT dead, they are just rotated out like crops

I think about Dave's video about this a lot: bsky.app/profile/demo...

Funny seeing there's a number of men thinking that was an invitation to talk about what they think is a good look on women; and guys - the issue isn't that the poor fashion victim has preferences (square and boring though they are), it's that he thinks women should adjust themselves in accordance.

Guy Siner – 79 today. One of the few actors to have completed the 'Allo 'Allo, Chucklevision and Seinfeld triple crown!

Hivemind, are there any good podcasts on history of Lebanon civil war? Read Pity the Nation years ago but really like to hear podcast/audio series

The news is out! I'll be taking over writing the daily and Sunday strips for The Phantom, with amazing artists @drawmanley.bsky.social and @jeffweigel.bsky.social.

"Styret i Sveriges näst största region, Västra Götaland, är klart. Det blir ett majoritetsstyre med S, V, MP och C. – Vi vet att vi är olika. Men för invånarnas bästa så har vi sett att vi behöver få till en majoritet, säger Cecilia Andersson, Centerpartiets gruppledare."

Drog fram en kassa ur garderoben och hittade en gammal Pop, och kan inte låta bli att undra om @andreslokko.bsky.social fortsatte lyssna mer och mer på Creedence för varje år.

”Tonårsutvisningarna har blivit en symbol för Tidöregeringens brutala migrationspolitik. Ungdomar som bokstavligen drömmer om framtiden på svenska ska skickas iväg från sina familjer och vänner till ett land som de ofta knappt känner till.” www.folkbladet.nu/2026-10-10/s...

New working paper: the Norwegian wealth tax was a huge success. The "exodus" of wealthy people never happened (less than 100 individuals left). Tax revenue increased by 71.5%. No changes in business activity or investment. www.nber.org/papers/w35854

This, bluntly, is BS. No creator EVER who is not working for an ESTABLISHED FRANCHISE ought to sign a Work for Hire. Next: illustrators who are commissioned for cover or interior art for a story sell rights FOR THAT PUBLICATION and retain ALL OTHER RIGHTS going forward. The author has no 'say'.

Anyway back to Dana Wynter.

1963 - Françoise Hardy - J'suis D'Accord The story is that yé-yé got its name from The Beatles, but Françoise was already putting out hit records while they were playing in Hamburg. In terms of film clips, France was clearly far ahead of the UK, as you will now see.

A funny thing that few people outside the specialism realise. "Sámi" is a pretty wide ethnic category that includes groups who don't understand each others' languages. This means that when you talk about the Sámi in contrast to Norwegians and Swedes during the 1st Millennium, you need to use a […]
