A non-problem intentionally turned into a national travesty by the world’s most malignant media outlets, who recognised the self-radicalisation of their nastiest colleagues was an excellent opportunity to push back hard against ideas like equality and inclusion, and to beat down people they despise.

It is a disgrace beyond words and of historic proportions that, immediately after watching the undeniable truth of what Israel is doing to Gaza, the world responds by letting it lay the groundwork for the very same in Lebanon

This is incredibly funny to try because even if it *was* true, then it would mean Streeting was defending Mandleson in September for the love of the game.

Not only does the University of Edinburgh have net assets of £3.1bn, but they have a surplus of £43mn. Yet, in the name of savings, the university continues to pursue redundancies which harm students, staff, and the institution itself. An utter disgrace.

@gianttank.bsky.social was interviewed for Into the Noise, great wee podcast with some other interesting episodes.. give it a wee listen eh 🥰❤️ podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcast/i...

The diplomatic "achievement" of the ceasefire was to recalibrate the tempo of the genocide sufficiently to get it off the front pages and the news bulletins, thus alleviating the political pressure on Israel's western accomplices. www.theguardian.com/world/2025/n...

This is *right up there* with all of the other horrendous betrayals Labour have enacted since July 2024. Members of affiliated unions should start pushing to end affiliation immediately - I certainly will be www.theguardian.com/law/2025/nov...

For those of you in the UK, especially if you are a UK citizen, can you please take part in the consultation on changes to Indefinite Leave to Remain (Settlement) that were just proposed by the UK government. We need as many people as possible to reject these proposals. www.gov.uk/government/c...

We've joined Cantilever Music, a new artist centric streaming service that really focuses on music, first up we've gone into the archive with Loraine James - 'Gentle Confrontation' with some accompanying words that look back at the release: www.cantilever-music.com

Help us out, will you?

Mr Former Human Rights Lawyer, once again demonstrating his commitment to the removal of human rights from as many of us as possible

All of this white paper is heinous in the extreme but this is hideous [Alt text added]

To suggest that having lived a life so grim that even an English tribunal will grant you asylum, and to have somehow managed to get here at great risk to life, is a "golden ticket" is absolutely fucking contemptible. Shame on this so-called Labour Party.

Just imagine the Krakatoa of enraged, flailing bullshit we would get, if it looked like Ed was going to thrash Streeting in a leadership election.

Celebrate @gianttank.bsky.social birthday by coming along and watching some more great music! It’s also a special lady, who we loves big brilliant 50th birthday! So let’s party!

Kind of drives me insane that there isn't a journalist who has access to these people and says "yes, that's exactly what it means what are you on about?"

I'm available for private lessons (on zoom) on Max & Ableton, in areas such as: - composing electronic music - sound design & synthesis - algorithmic music and weird shit I'm a Senior Lecturer in Music & Sound Design at LSBU with 10+ years experience teaching at Goldsmiths, Brunel & Newcastle unis

Hope to see everyone for the return of another bunch of Giant Tanks TFEH events @fruitmarket.bsky.social on Sunday 12 October www.ticketsource.co.uk/whats-on/edi...

Read this very carefully: *61%* of all the people who have died of starvation in Gaza over the past 22 months have died in the past *3 weeks*

Holding important meetings, lamenting bad things, urging people to do good things. The same routine for 20 months. And all the while the arms exports continue, the surveillance flights continue, trade and investment continues, normal diplomatic relations continue. Complicity in genocide continues.

I'm genuinely gobsmacked that the Home Office think this is a good idea. How do they envisage "training" technology to verify the age of a young person from (say) Darfur or Iraqi Kurdistan? They might as well get the calipers out and start doing phrenology

BBC host: ".. how long can people survive.. obviously people are appalled by the images we are seeing" Juliette Touma from UNRWA "We should be more than appalled. We've passed the threshold of being appalled many months ago... the people of Gaza are being deliberately starved"

“ 'I’ve been searching for something to feed my children but there is nothing.' Daily 🆘 messages are coming in from our starving UNRWA colleagues, every day. Food is available only a few kilometers away. Inaction is complicity and makes us lose our humanity." - UNRWA Commissioner-General

getting kicked out of the tech leaders slack for continuing to call weekends "microdosing sabbaticals"

A key thing to remember is that the players who make billions of dollars from these tech bubbles do NOT need the tech to actually work in order to personally profit. If you have access to capital, you get in early, spend years hyping up "disruption", then time your exit before the bubble deflates.
