THURSDAY: Jon Wozencroft's latest Sound Seminar 'A Short History of Happiness': tinyurl.com/Wozencroft 'Can we still say that the quest for happiness is the prime motor behind perception, feeling and behaviour? Or just give up? [...] Isolation is not the answer. Happiness is not a warm gun...'

There is a serious failure in UK govt, politics & media to take sufficiently seriously what Musk said & meant with "fight back or die" = Violence (interethnic civil war) is inevitable so pre-emptive violence - vs migrants, minorities & political opponents - is necessary to avoid existential erasure

Long ago I reported on a racist authoritarianism that surely - surely - would never return. Here’s 16 minutes of unheard archive from then, remixed as a warning for now .. #trump #art #apartheid

WHO#29 is “Switch Off That Machine” by Nigel Wrench. the-tapeworm.bandcamp.com/album/switch... We live in dystopian times. This is a response. Wrench’s compelling soundweave of unique, disturbing archive from apartheid South Africa is of the past. The resonance is now. @urbanshep.bsky.social

Democracy, annexed

Final results now prob tomorrow. If Sarah Wagenknecht's party gets in, everything will be much more difficult. But: There will be a centrist democratic government in Berlin. The overall tone tonight was reassuringly calm, serious and civilised. So much for the glass half full. #Nitenite

Important counterpoints that need to be added to the overall relief that the AfD didn't win more than expected in Germany tonight. (A relief I share, but Tanja is right nonetheless.)

Wow, Linke took Berlin-Neukölln. Stunning result for Berlin city politics

This is the most wretched campaign of deliberate, explicit persecution the United States has perpetrated against a minority group in decades. Many of the most important people in politics and journalism are busying themselves trying to figure out how little to say or do about it.
