I love London so much. So much. Did you know that London has the lowest level of ethnic violence of any city of comparable size in the world? Multiculturalism has in fact worked here. They just don’t want it to be true because we happen to have a Muslim mayor.

Went to the early show. It was fucking incredible. Dark, occultish, trance, drone. Loved it. And loved the early start time #oldman

Tonight’s listening, with the only acceptable cover version:

PART CHIMP - LIVE at NO90 Hackney for Baba Yaga's Hut 19th Anniversary Celebration 🥳 Very pleased to have captured this. I love Part Chimp and it's great to finally record them with good sound - no mean feat considering they're one of the loudest bands around. Full film in the comms 👇👇👇

With under two weeks to go until our big summer party at Number 90 London and I thought would pass on the stage times and other information!

Amazing journalism. Time for a Salt Path sequel in which Gillian Anderson and Jason Isaacs play really angry versions of themselves. observer.co.uk/news/nationa...

This is relevant to ALL my interests

Up on @resonancefm.bsky.social for Baba Yaga's Hut radio today at 2:30. Tune in: www.resonancefm.com

This was incredible! Oh man, what a treat. A great Q&A with Ross Lipman too. And had a lovely chat with a very old friend of the director Richard Beymer. The joys of Ayahuasca were mentioned.

Was really pleased with this mix I did for Mantis radio. Thanks so much to Mike for asking!

Part Chimp are one of the very best to ever do it. Here we offer ten points of entry into their throbbing back catalogue: thequietus.com/interviews/s...

IT’S FUCKING CHESS What POSSIBLE advantage, even in the warped mind of a transphobe, could being transgender give you at chess? They’re so nakedly hateful they just can’t stand any trans person winning anything ever. Pathetic.

If opposing the IDF is inherently antisemitic, it follows that there is nothing the IDF cannot do. And in a context where they are perpetrating a genocide against an encaged population in territory they control while pursuing an escalating war of aggression against Iran, that is very much the point.

Stefan Golaszewski is a genius. I was recommended Him & Her after waxing lyrical about Mum and I’ve just watched all series in about two weeks. He has a new series called Babies coming out this autumn.

1 Month to go until our summer anniversary party with Part Chimp, @familydrone.bsky.social, Rainbow Grave, Michael, Haress, Dawn Terry, Spirit Data, Barbican Estate, Wayne Adams, @teethofthesea.bsky.social DJ's boat takeover, Proteus & 2Rana3Crana! dice.fm/event/ry7req...

Donald Trump just unilaterally bombed Iran. A masked gang is terrorizing our streets. America has rapidly devolved into an authoritarian state. That's why, today, The Onion has purchased a full page ad in today's New York Times with a simple plea to Congress: Sit back and do absolutely nothing.

Team America is on C4 right now.

This thread on Loyalist paramilitary involvement in the Ballymena pogrom, and the puzzling lack of interest in it from UK news media & the judiciary, is well worth your while:

rest in peace, Harris Yulin. one of those legendary character actors.

Elon posting on X that Trump “is in the Epstein files” was definitely not on our bingo card.

Got a Baba Yaga's ad in this one. Not familiar with the cover star but DJ Scotch Egg's jukebox!!

At a time when people are understandably focused on the daily chaos in Washington, these articles describe the rapidly accelerating impact that AI is going to have on jobs, the economy, and how we live.

The Trump administration’s billion-dollar cuts to the National Institutes of Health include a $2.7 billion blow to the National Cancer Institute slashing more than a third of its funding. “For the past 50 years, every significant medical breakthrough, especially in the treatment of cancer,

Drugs poison him that so fell sick of you.

Can’t wait for this tomorrow at the Barbican Centre. An incredible line-up.

Reminder that our massive summer party is coming up in two months! Two stages of live music headlined by Part Chimp and Teeth Of The Sea DJ's take over a boat stage. Chimp finish around 10:30 and then we have after hours fun til 2 with Wayne Adams, 2Rana3Crana & DJ Proteus. dice.fm/event/ry7req...

Last year my wife had breast cancer and a double mastectomy. This morning, for the first time ever, she was challenged in the changing rooms at the swimming pool. Her breasts were not what make her a woman - but, breasts or not, she is entitled to dignity and protection from vigilantes.

Brian Eno calls on Microsoft to cease its partnership with Israel and pledges to donate the original fee for his Windows '95 chime to victims of Israel's genocide in Gaza

This is happening right now. www.theguardian.com/world/live/2...

People who are still shouting that Israel is not committing genocide must be clapping their hands over their ears every time an Israeli minister steps onto a podium because

Just realised: “24-carat mensch… living antidote to cruelty and…astonishing comet of kindness blazing across social media’s dark night skies” Simon Ricketts would have been 57 yesterday. I suppose the best way to mark the occasion is to post some nonsense that you think will make someone else laugh

JFC. What’s happening in the UK?
