I moved to Canada, got married, and adopted these two brats. I also got back into crafting properly, and it makes me very happy.

At a press conference on Thursday, the head of UK Counter Terrorism Policing, Laurence Taylor, said the threat from extreme-right wing terrorism was rising and had been a key driver of the decision to raise the national terror threat level from substantial to “severe” in May

Let it be known that Katherine Johnson was the reason for the first astronauts in space. And now Vanessa Wyche, head of the Johnson Space Center and NASA's highest ranking civil servant, is the responsible for the longest manned space flight in history

I represented a Client charged with obstruction for filming a cop who pulled a gun on him for driving whilst Black. The state's attorney argued that Client was trying to entrap the cop by goading cop into shooting him for a payday for his family. So no, "just follow the law" is bullshit.

I represented a client charged with obstruction for not exiting a vehicle. Client was deaf and therefore didn't hear the command. State's attorney argued that Client chose not to get a cochlear implant so Client planned to obstruct cops.

I represented a client who was charged with obstruction for, this is true, not letting a cop sexually assault her. Client said "no" when propositioned, cop grabbed her genitals, she said "no" again, and the state's attorney charged her with obstruction.

Let's talk about the "you should have just obeyed the law" response to police violence. A study several years ago found that police are the sixth leading cause of death for Black men in the United States. But it is, if you can imagine, worse than that.

You'd think they'd want to discuss how it won as many awards as The Matrix, ET, Fellowship of the Ring, Raiders of the Lost Ark, Parasite... How it has the most wins of any Vampire movie ever... How its success further cements that Coogler's deal could be Hollywood's future. But alas. It's Black.

Remember that in the UK, in space year 2026, it is *still* illegal to rip a CD you bought with your own money to play the resulting MP3s (or whatever) on your computer. That is not considered fair use. But AI companies eating all of our creative work for free soon will be. Fuck off, Labour.

The US was fascist since its founding. If public concern is lacking, it may be because people have noted how often public concern didn't matter to the people who have power in the past (see: public concern about AI, rifles, etc.)

The Green Party has 200,000 members but fewer than Reform, which has 270,000. Wrong. Reform is a limited company entirely owned by Nigel Farage. So it only has 1 member. The other 269,999 are just a mailing list. Unlike Green Party members, they do not elect leaders or determine policy.

Reform repeatedly invokes “women and girls” when it wants a wedge on migration [or trans people], with Nigel Farage framing women’s safety against human rights protections in a way that casts migrants as the threat while sidestepping the policies that actually keep women safe.
open.substack.com
Reform UK is a threat to women's rights.
Behind the slogans lies a programme that weakens women’s rights while shielding powerful men.

My point was everyone keeps comparing what is happening in the US to Nazi Germany, when Nazi Germany literally ripped off ideas from the US. This isn't new or unusual, we've seen it bubbling this whole time, because y'all let it. The whole system is right of centre, and it led to this being the norm

This is completely unethical and goes against all ethical standards indeed there was a huge scandal about this at Oslo University Hospital last year. Any "research" that comes from this will be invalid.
