When people ask me if I have any good stories from when I used to interview rock stars for a living my mind often goes a bit blank, and to be honest a lot of it was quite ordinary and unremarkable, but on the other hand there is this.

24 years ago I was sent to a London pub by a newspaper to interview and drink whisky (no “e” over here) with Lemmy, who was in the band Motorhead and, before that, slightly less famously, Hawkwind and, before that, much less famously, Sam Gopal. We had a good chat: about being from the part of the Midlands north of the River Trent, about books, and about roadying for Hendrix in the mid-60s (him, not me; I was minus nine at the time). When the record company PR sidled over to tell me my time was up, Lemmy waved him away. “No, no, I’m enjoying this,” he said, commandingly. I realised at this point that I had another question I’d been meaning to ask but hadn’t. “Are you scared of anything?” I said to Lemmy. “Nothing,” he replied. Then he paused and frowned for a moment, as if an idea had suddenly occurred to him. “Oh, maybe snakes,” he said. “It’s because they’ve got no shoulders.”

ICE shot and murdered Lorenzo Salgado Araujo (52). He spent 35 years as an honest, tax paying neighbor with 3 kids, all US citizens. He worked hard to get his citizenship. And ICE killed him before he could, then confirmed he was not even their intended target. 1/3

When a legislator sees an excerpt of their email I didn't tag them in where I use their words literally and ask for opinions on those words and their response was it was a "gross mischaracterization" of their words I have to wonder... did they not read the email back before hitting send or...?

By erasing the construct of international law, Putin and Netanyahu win the war. Many who claim to oppose them will cheer their own demise, handing over this world to criminals and democracy to the incinerator.

Please consider helping Palestinians right now. As Iran and the US and Israel all go to war, Palestinians are caught in the crossfires. Maher is in the West Bank. Most of his family is still stuck in Gaza. Everything helps keep them fed, sheltered and medicated. #Iran #israel-uswar #Palestine #gaza

Look at this smug criminal piece of shit lying his corrupt ass off, Netanyahu belongs in prison along with the rest of the Epstein network. It’s not official until the regime denies it, Epstein worked for Israel. Netanyahu is a criminal.

Jeffrey Epstein's unusual close relationship with Ehud Barak doesn't suggest Epstein worked for Israel. It proves the opposite.
Stuck on his election loss from over two decades ago, Barak has for years obsessively attempted to undermine Israeli democracy by working with the anti-Zionist radical left in failed attempts to overthrow the elected Israeli government.
Barak's personal fixation led him to engage in activities publicly and behind the scenes to undermine the government of Israel, including fueling mass protest movements, fomenting unrest and feeding false media narratives.

One of the most crucial steps to removing the Epstein network is to cut off all funding and intelligence sharing with Israel. It sounds like a big task but the future of our collective democracies depends on our ability to route out traitors, spies, and Trojan horses. Israel must go.

Almost certainly the best photograph I have ever taken from an Iron Age hillfort of the sun setting over an estuary as summer segues majestically into autumn.

The sun setting over the Severn Estuary as seen from the top of Uley Bury hill fort. I took this photo in September, 2021, on the most perfect windless evening, feeling euphoric having finished the edits on my debut novel, Villager. The whole walk felt like I'd temporarily stepped inside a Kit Williams painting, which was apt since for the last several decades he has lived not far from here, and the landscape was a prime inspiration for his masterpiece Masquerade.

So simply naming someone is doxxing, but taking photos and license plate numbers to create a database of the opposition for government stalking and harassment purposes is not? Naming someone is not doxxing them, and moving them to another city to kill more is conspiracy against rights.

Alex Pretti was an American hero. He saved lives. He protected people. He cared deeply about his community, unlike the murderous thugs who killed him. The very last thing he did was try to help a woman who had been pepper-sprayed and violently shoved to the ground by ICE. 1/

A man was killed in Minneapolis yesterday. His name was Alex Pretti. He was an ICU nurse at the VA. He started recording after federal agents were harassing people in his town. They systematically took him to the ground, pistol whipped him, took his legal firearm, and then agents unloaded rounds.
