WATCH — Trump’s ‘Meet the Press’ Tantrum (longer version, with context) When Welker pushes back on his unhinged lies about the election and grills him on the $1.776 BILLION fund for seditionists who attacked the Capitol he still won’t say is dead, Trump loses it and leaves.

Russian journalist and solidarity activist Adele Shoko reports from the town of Shuqba near Ramallah, in the occupied West Bank, where Israeli settler militias burned Palestinian crops earlier this week, causing significant economic damage to local farmers.

seriously rattled. he really can't cope being asked for evidence for his bullshit.

What does it mean to reconnect with your heritage? For a growing number of musicians across Wales, the answer can be found in a room full of fiddles, violas, cellos and double basses, playing tunes together late into the evening

Overhead at Pride yesterday: the organiser saying the fire station (who have taken part every year) cancelled at the last minute because they were told to withdraw Reform went straight to cutting out everything they detest

Israel destroys two residential buildings in Gaza airstrikes - Israel won’t be satisfied till every building in Gaza is destroyed, how many more thousands will die? news.sky.com/video/share-...

I made a very important purchase at the medieval festival

I went to a powerful session on Palestine at the Jaipur Lit Fest @britishlibrary.bsky.social yesterday. The standout was a horrific 10 minute presentation on the IDF's deliberate targeting of healthcare workers and children by consultant surgeon Nick Maynard. Read these: 1/3

- with the promoter at the next gig The Upshot did. "Ah" he said. "Well. What happened was that your tracks sounded so much better than the others and they stood out like a Dobermann's bollocks so we had to, er, dis-improve them." But whatever. The Upshot were on a proper record. An achievement-

I’m adore the Beatles, but we’re really at the “publish a book on what the Beatles did on 14 August 1965” stage now, aren’t we?

So 1) don’t do this (because it’s actively, regularly completely wrong) and 2) if you decide to be a damn fool and use an “AI lawyer” anyway, remember that your chatlogs are not privileged and can be subpoenaed by the opposition (that’s bad, chat)

Indeed. My guess is she took it but was inwardly seething, and didn't want to pass that down to him.

Went to a car boot sale, about to look at some vinyl but changed my mind as the stall holder was shouting in agreement at the next table how woke snowflakes have stopped you being able to abuse various minorities 'in a friendly way'. Because when his mum came over from Ireland she didn't mind it.

I made the gates and all the fences with materials from the site

Pretty pleased with how this is coming along. What was it Dolly Parton said, “it takes a lot of money to look this cheap”: substitute time for money.

we were chatting last night following the sad news of Anthony Head's passing and remembering the Buffy episode where the book of spells was as Gaeilge and I spent a solid 2 hours hunting down the original source of the news about the bus route in Dublin and reader, I found it #speirgorm

BBC Radio 6 Music Cerys Matthews Now Playing Gorky’s Zygotic Mynci Patio Song

AS PER MY PREVIOUS years of pointing this out would happen: the age verification sector is now behaving as privatised law enforcement, based on the user’s mere use of a non-big tech privacy-centric OS and not any actual offense committed. I get to name this, so let’s call it “grassware”.

If there's a sign, there's been an incident

“the greatest gift is to be remembered” Sarah Lane: guys, what the hell

OMG, yes. Or Suranne Jones. Or Bridget Christie.

As ever, Cory's thread is brilliant. And as ever, because it's tackling the US tech industry and its international hangers-on, it's all very familiar to those of us in the transport sphere who continue to have to respond to relentless tech bullshit in transport. Driverless cars as king among them.

The suffering in Gaza hasn't gone away. Can you help Soad and her son. Even a small amount means so much - the feeling of being forgotten and abandoned are part of what makes this all so hard for Soad xx

I still think Emma Thompson would make an amazing #DrWho www.theguardian.com/film/2026/ma...

“The Bullshit Asymmetry Principle, also known as Brandolini’s Law, states that the amount of energy needed to refute bullshit is an order of magnitude bigger than that needed to produce it.” Useful article. As we look at solutions though, our priority is demanding upstream leadership. #UrbanTruth

“Amsterdam is set to ban climate-damaging advertising [fossil fuel & meat adverts] in public spaces, following a trend spreading across Dutch cities. France has also enacted legislation outlawing adverts from non-renewable energy companies, & one Italian city has plans to do the same.” #UrbanTruth

This only happens when the perpetrators know they are morally wrong...

Leaked documents reveal a secret program led by the Israeli Ministry of Defense to train hundreds of influence experts to carry out offensive operations aimed at distorting facts, penetrating societies, and bypassing the algorithms of

I didn't realise that the BBC's soft peddling of fascism started as early as 1989. www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/p...

Reform UK’s former Leader Ian Cooper resigned after we expose him as a white suprematist. The party is trying to let him return to the party stating they have investigated him and cleared him. Here’s a reminder for them why he resigned: hopenothate.org.uk/2025/12/03/r...

I particularly enjoyed the bit where they keep asking the Tories where the data comes from, and they don't get back to them (bar an acknowledgement), so they send their working of why it is completely wrong, and they still don't respond...

💥 In Donetsk region, birds are building nests from drone fiber optics.

Interesting way to avoid saying that an Israeli occupation soldier shot a 7 month old baby

Spent the afternoon running errands by bike in Brooklyn and Manhattan and, holy moly, bicycle traffic is off the charts. Always helpful to get offline and out of community board meetings and into the real world. We are winning The War on Cars.

Absolutely, what a feeling... #BookSky

Nail on the Head, for many of us.

Just been to see a friend play in a field in terrible weather. Suburban and rural types, please nurture your non-driving friends who come out in terrible weather. It's very hard for us to know there's only one bus (full stop) we can get (which didn't turn up and we got a cab).

Friends fear she has been thinking about nodal tidal cycles again

5. We (local Evil Cycling Lobby) have written to LBHF & discussed the problems here with cabinet members & officers constantly for the last 5 years. But they are too afraid of the motorist backlash that Tarsh et al will whip up if they do the obvious thing to fix it: close Weltje Rd to the A4

Here’s the thing about Tony. He turned up in the NEVERWHERE studio the day before he was booked to be in. He didn’t have to do that but he wanted to get an idea of how the production sounded in studio and how the team worked. A total pro and a lovely human being.

Recently another unsolicited request to speak at an event where they take sponsorship money and pay everyone bar the speakers. When I pointed out I had said no previously, the response was "We thought you might take a better approach this time"
