Worrying scenes in the Channel today, for all interested in asylum policy and maritime tactics. A small boat from Normandy spent more than 30 hours at sea. Those on board now on their 2nd rescue vessel as Border Force forced to play cat and mouse with far-right activists who have their own boat.

Widespread uptake of doorbell cameras paved the way for this. People really struggle to grasp that they are laying down the foundations of privately owned mass surveillance with every “personal” decision to buy this crap.

I think the worst part of Labour's response to the fascist mobilisation is Andy Burnham's absence. He's the most popular politician in the country, with social media reach and actual powers of persuasion, and he's saying nothing in public. He can actually be of use here but he's choosing not to

When blackshirts are marching through the streets of Dover and Portsmouth, the focus shouldn’t be on the disruption they cause, but on their fascist ideology and deliberate intimidation of migrants and people of colour. [1/2]

Yep (e.g. the amount of effort my disabled wife has had to go to get her PIP & try to get a tiny council tax reduction). The system is designed to wear everyone down. Imagine if we could able to see the stats for how much money businesses & the government saved by intentionally making people tired.

The cache of training materials also suggests that vetting checks only cover potential candidates’ online profiles – not, for instance, whether they have any criminal history. One of the slides on selecting candidates states: “They have to be vetted, but this is just their online profile.”

The tactic of sharing a list of houses is straight out of the NI paramilitaries handbook and its spread to England is troubling. The police should really be looking to prosecute anybody sharing it with all the conspiracy and aiding and abetting charges they can think of.

A letter from the mother of Alex Pretti, six months after he was murdered by ICE.
suzpretti
18 hours ago

Today marks the six-month anniversary of Alex's murder. No one has been held accountable, no apologies, not a single phone call from any governmental official, hospital personnel, or the mpls police dept. Six-months of pain, a roller-coaster of trauma over and over. Every time another a death, another mention, a picture, a tribute, a sorrow so deep. I wonder how to move forward. Will I ever get over this loss and this pain?
Will I ever be able to enjoy life again? How does one live knowing that I have no power to change what has happened?

And yet the outreach not only from Minnesota, but from around the world has been nothing less than spectacular. Every card, every gift, every heartfelt letter has been read, touched, held, and cherished by us all. The kindness you've all shown us is beyond words. Please never forget Alex and what he believed in ~ equality and peace for all. I will remember the things that made you, you. It will never take your memory. As long as I'm here, you will never be forgotten.

For all you asking what you can do. Continue this fight. Never give up your right to speak out, protect your neighbor, your community and don't forget to spend time with those you love...

Last week, about a third of the History department were able to gather together on graduation day. Rather than lend our intellectual authority to the official procession and ceremony we invited our students to come and celebrate their achievements with us in a shady courtyard. They came. 1/
A group of world leading historians in their finery, some in gowns, stand together under a tree. Some carry signs saying 'Historian at risk', other raise a glass to the camera.

When you say “AI models went rogue,” you manage to skip the part where OpenAI manually removed its cybersecurity blocks and ran tests on a machine with a live network connection. Remember that when they insist they’re the “AI safety” people.

It's a weird kind of bigotry (specifically TERFism rather than common or garden transphobia) because it arises from middle-class liberalism. It means the default mode in which these people express their politics is a sort of smug condescension, as if their beliefs are self-evident.

This is wild. 93% of the renewable electricity generation added to the Irish grid over that last decade now powers data centers, rather than reducing fossil fuel use. Data centers have pretty much annihilated the health and climate benefits those renewables could have provided.

When something is so obviously a terrible idea, it is ok to just...say no thanks and ban it. We don't have to wait 15 years and then slowly ban if after a whole bunch of irreperable damage has been done to individuals and society.
