The Financial Conduct Authority is planning to share your financial data with the increasingly transparently fascist US tech company Palantir. FCA staff are pushing back. I've supported them by signing their petition.

Apart from the actual stats, the most reliable indicator that immigration is plunging (to our obvious economic detriment) is Nigel Farage turning his dishonest attentions to the mythical millions of benefits claimants.

Good morning! Would you like to come and collage with me? #Cardiff #Arts #Workshop #AreWeDoingHashtagsOnBluesky?

Today I customised a clipboard to keep my pins and glue dots together while I put up posters, then I found a bunch of brilliant new collage material in a charity shop 💖

EU: The European Union will require sale of mobile phones with “user-replaceable and longer-lasting batteries” starting in 2027. The regulation demands “availability of spare parts and manuals for 10 years to curb planned obsolescence”.

Never should it be forgotten that whilst the Covid vaccine was a huge achievement the failure of the government to give them to children early on led to child deaths and disability. Clinically vulnerable children were left with no protection for two years. No adult had to endure such trauma.

Lobbying needs to be banned, Pro-Israel, Private Healthcare, Fossil Fuel, Water Companies... If you take a penny you shouldn't just be fired. You should go straight to jail.

I’ve been watching #SortYourLifeOut with Stacey Solomon on the BBC and I am *so* disappointed to see them putting AI generated art into people’s homes 🙃

Connection with real people requires an emotional vulnerability that feeding your soul into AI does not. But, frankly, the latter creates a very different vulnerability that is far more dangerous.

Frank Frazetta, “Frogs on the Moon” (c. 1973).

Open call for the full ethnic cleansing of Palestinians from Gaza on the Jerusalem Post. This is Israeli political culture, and as the author note: “This is not radical right-wing radicalism. It is merely sound and sober political science.” Genocide as as a science.

My first Sunday Session takes place this weekend, 2-4pm at Unstable Arts in #Roath, #Cardiff. Some tickets still available here: www.creatrixcymraes.com/shop/p/colla...
