The world's largest academic association of genocide scholars - the 500-member International Association of Genocide Scholars - has passed a resolution saying that the legal criteria have been met to establish Israel is committing genocide in Gaza. genocidescholars.org/wp-content/u...

During the next week, many of us will experience our last 8pm sunset until next April. It has already happened for some southern and eastern parts of England! We've been losing 3-5 minutes of daylight per day through August.

Well I guess we're not likely to see the Dragon Horse for a while.

The Dunmore estate near Falkirk. The house ruins are as haunting as the Pineapple is spectacular. Now reading a book on the 4th Earl who at 15 was a page boy for Bonny Prince Charlie, and became the slave owning Govenor of Virginia who fermented the American revolution by being an ass.

Spot the #BorderCollie

Spoilt, much? 😂 Lil #Normie’s livin’ the dream.

How does a dog manage to get this many seeds on him in the space of five minutes? #BorderCollie

Ooo missus, look at the size of my marrow!

How's my weekend been? Well, a bit up and down. Mostly up for me, and mostly down for the cyclists at the British Downhill MTB championships.

Height of summer. The kind of day that fades from the memory in Dec/Jan/Feb

A bit scrappy, but I'm happy with my contribution to Prague's John Lennon wall. #FightWar,NotWars

The 2025 lineup of Greg Ginn's Black Flag are damned fine. Lead singer of the Flag has to be one of the toughest gigs in punk, but fair play she's bounced and bawled for an hour. (But let's face it, we're all here to see Greg). #Punk

10:30pm in the Central Belt of Scotland. #NoFX

Lovin' a bit of Orbital. Night y'all #StereoUnderground

Hehe 1980s 12" versions were a bit mad at times. I could be happy... if Claire would sing. #StereoUnderground

I think I've broken my #BorderCollie

In a world full of strife, there are simple pleasures. #BorderCollie #OneDogAndHisStick

I watched this happen on the morning of 4 June 1989 in Chang’an Avenue, near Tiananmen Square, the morning after the night’s massacre. Don’t believe the propaganda lie that no massacre took place: I saw 40 people killed in front of me before giving up counting in despair. pic.x.com/zhqZhT6iPB

Panic ye not. It's only #StereoUnderground on the mighty Mixcloud. Evening Undergrounders.

Well, my good friends. Another night of good music and great chat. Take care of yourselves. #StereoUnderground

"island of strangers"

I've seen bands that are really really loud - Black Sabbath, Motorhead, ELP but nothing compared to a 5 year old's birthday party in a soft play centre. My ears are still ringing.

New words I've written for you: (When Precious Friendships Wither Like Autumn Leaves, They Scatter Seeds of Wisdom That Bloom into Unexpected Peace) gurdeeppandher.substack.com/p/precious-f...

Tim Leunig here, with a warning to all those MPs who want to just allow universities to implode: in 100 constituencies the university is one of the top three exporters. Take Huddersfield: the uni there easily outstrips in turnover the biggest local company. timleunig.substack.com/p/internatio...

This is, genuinely, important music. Benefits-Constant Noise. Oh, and btw, it's on Bandcamp.com. and it's Bandcamp Friday tomorrow .

Pedestrians who are hit by SUVs are 44% more likely to be killed than if they were hit by a conventional car, new study finds. Children are 82% more likely to die when hit by an SUV than by a car. In children under 10, the risk of death was 130% higher. Regulate vehicle size now.

hi everyone it's Bandcamp Friday this week, when 100% of the income of anything bought on Bandcamp goes directly to the artists. Always a great date for doing some music shopping.. Here's a little list of ten acidy tracks for you to play loud on the dancefloor: www.buymusic.club/list/posthum...

Going to see the immaculate Benefits at The Rum Shack in Glasgow tonight. I may have peaked too early. #gigs

10 bands I've seen, one is a lie. Carcass Manic Street Preachers Roy Harper Chuck Berry Suicidal Tendencies Ice-T Gene The Stranglers Ian Drury & the Blockheads Ozzy Osborne Kenickie

Apparently, I am NOT too old for a mosh pit. #SOAPBOX

Mad bunch SOAPBOX are absolutely ripping the Glasgow School of Art Union tonight. #Punk

Sad, sad news. #StereoUnderground

Does anyone know where I've put my capo. It's always within an arms length of my guitar, but I must have put it somewhere. But where!!!!

This is beautifully written. Such a welcome counterpoint to the ridiculous hysteria over who goes to which toilet.

The great thing about #WildFlowerHour is that you start noticing what's around you. It's still chilly up here, but then I find...

Anarcho-Punk: Music And Resistance in London 1977-1988 by David Insurrection – Book Review #punk #anarchopunk #earthislandbooks .....a virtual tour of spots in London that formed part of the anarcho-punk counter-cultural landscape in the 1980s. louderthanwar.com/anarcho-punk...

This daft big lump loves his boxing glove(s). Great fight games, chase games, or just chewing them. Cost me £7 a pair, so cheaper than many doggie toys.

Forgot I was on a phone call about council tax Them: What band are you in Me: Erm, The Charlatans Them: Your council tax band? 😬

Legs are oot

This is most of my block list. I don't mind relevant politics, but tbh, I just want music, collies, and banter.

If you're ever at a loose end around this time on a Friday(9pm in the UK) there's a fine punk party to be found on Mixcloud www.mixcloud.com/live/punkafr...

Somehow, this has snuck onto my turntable. Windows rattling, wife complaining, son gobsmacked, but I care not a jot!
