I've started watching Sergei Bondarchuk's War and Peace and I thought in the interest of balance I'd do the Napoleonic War from the southern front, and watch Sharpe concurrently. There's a lot less swooning in Sharpe, tbh.

"So much of Ms. Pike's experience reflects widespread and systemic failures that surface in death penalty cases," said an Amnesty International USA researcher, urging an end to capital punishment "in Tennessee and beyond."

I'm kind of tired of pretending that "sense of brotherhood" is a real, meaningful term and isn't just a euphemism for men's spaces where they bond over misogynistic humiliation rituals and coach each other on how best to commit sexual assault.

First Nations children are still waiting for safe schools, clean water, adequate housing and equitable services. Meanwhile, Canada somehow finds urgency when the “national interest” is pipelines, mines and major projects. Reconciliation has to mean more than wearing orange once a year. 🧡

I see that Marilyn Manson's canceling has carried him all the way to Wembley Stadium.
theguardian.com
Heavy metal is about uplifting the downtrodden. So why is alleged abuse by Marilyn Manson so easily forgotten?
Slipknot sharing their stage with a man accused of wrongdoing by more than a dozen women is the antithesis of everything the genre should stand for, even if he denies it

why would rapists bother to pretend to be trans in a culture that treats rapists better than trans women

On this day in 2000, 12-year-old Muhammad al-Durrah was killed by israeli troops in Gaza. These images capture his father's desperate attempt to shield him. He was pleading with the soldiers not to murder his son. They killed him anyway. Never forget. It didn't start on October 10.
A four-panel composite image showing the final moments of 12-year-old Muhammad al-Durrah, alongside his father, Jamal, in Gaza on September 30, 2000.

· Top-left panel: Muhammad, wearing a blue and white patterned shirt and blue jeans, crouches alone against a rough concrete block wall, looking to his left.
· Top-right panel: Jamal, wearing a white t-shirt and blue jeans, crouches behind his son, wrapping his arm around him to shield him. Jamal's face is contorted in distress, his mouth open as he looks toward the camera.
· Bottom-left panel: Muhammad crouches low against the wall, alone and facing away from the camera.
· Bottom-right panel: Jamal sits against the wall with his legs spread, looking toward the camera with an expression of anguish.

The sequence captures the desperation of a Palestinian father trying to protect his child from murderous israeli military terrorists, in the midst of gunfire with the Palestinian Resistance.A grainy, zoomed-in frame. It shows Jamal al-Durrah, a Palestinian man in a white t-shirt and blue jeans, crouching against a rough concrete block wall. He is desperately shielding his 12-year-old son, Muhammad, who is huddled in front of him. The father's face is clearly visible, his mouth wide open in a scream or plea, as he tries to protect his son from incoming israeli fire. The image is low-resolution and heavily pixelated.

you have to read the epstein files with the knowledge that this is not the only bubble of powerful men talking about how they abuse women and then in the next wmail whining about how they get unfairly accused of abusing women, it’s just the one that we can publicly read.

Tennessee plans to execute a woman tomorrow. She was 18 when she committed the crime. She's now 50. Like most on death row, she's also a victim. And like most on death row, she's a far different person now than she was then. No one humanizes the condemned better than @lilianasegura.bsky.social.

All five men arrested in RAF base plot are British nationals
The five men who were arrested and subsequently released on bail are all British citizens, home secretary Shabana Mahmood has just told the Labour party conference.

She adds that the scene is “now safe” and the residents living near to the RAF base are now able to return home.

“Let this be a reminder: you will never defeat us,” he says.
