Palestine Action have WON their judicial review in the High Court! A massive victory for free speech, freedom of association and the right to protest. A massive defeat for the draconian attempts by Keir Starmer's government to curtail our fundamental rights.

EXCLUSIVE: So far it's been unclear what proof Rockstar Games has to justify its firing of 34 union members, who it claims were leaking "confidential information in a public forum". PMG has now seen some of the messages which contributed to this decision being made.

Once again reminding folks that the ethical replacement to using Spotify isnโt another streaming platform; itโs buying music from artists when youโre in the financial position to do so and pirating them when youโre unable to do so. Or simply ask an artist for the files, like actually.

By the way! Did you! Know! I made the Lightners Live minigame for Deltarune! The mechanics, the charts, the silly details โ everything but the music, writing and final art was me. I even built an entire chart editor from scratch, because manually timing each note sucks so so bad
