Stuck a few quid into the author's crowdfunder for this a couple of years back and, this morning, a knock at the door - my postie must hate me! - another tome for the shelf, and a lot of other nice extras. Keep the faith!

"There was a time when men devoted their thought to machines, in the hope that they would make them free. But this only allowed other men with machines to enslave them." No that's not an AI prediction, that's from the book Dune printed in 1965.

Trump’s a Russian asset, Farage’s party is a racist enterprise, Putin wanted Brexit & if you tried to make a list of all the UK politicians & pundits who’ve backed all three, you’d be here for hours.

Ireland against Fascism
@irlagainstfascism.bsky.social

Chants of 'Don't protect the women, we can fight. We don't need your fascist shite' rang out in Glasgow tonight. As anti-fascists, women's rights groups and trade unionists protested against 'patriot platform' and their supporters pushing their racist agenda in the city. Things you love to see ✊

If you're enjoying the Cymande doc on BBC4 right now, Tim who directed it hooked me up the Patrick & Steve from the band a few years back for this Bandcamp Daily piece. Find out about their surprise (to them) 2 Tone connection, and which 80s pop hit Patrick sang on daily.bandcamp.com/features/cym...

An honour to listen The Maestro talk about his career at PMS CSC charity afternoon today. Paul's vibe with the punters today was like he was on the park: different class 💚🍀

There aren’t a huge number of folk in my industry I truly, truly admire. DENZEL however is one I very much do. “So what a responsibility you all have, to tell the truth. Not just to be first, but to tell the truth.”

Replying to @georgemonbiot.bsky.social

We can spend our lives debating the justifications (I more or less have); but we are wasting our time. What we need is a massive clampdown on the influence of money over politics, including lobbying transparency, campaign finance reform, an end to the revolving door between politics and lobbying.

In 1847, during the Great Famine, the Choctaw Nation collected $170 to help Ireland — a huge sum at the time. The Irish never forgot: in 2020, they donated €2.5 million to a Native American tribe affected by Covid-19. 🍀☘️🇮🇪🕊 #Ireland #Choctaw #CelticFC #Eire #Celtic

Joe Rogan says that Trump fans are "nuts". The problem with that is that he is a Trump fan. Over the years we will see the worlds stupidest people trying to walk back their support of him like it never happened. Fuck these people.
