Our legal team worked very hard last week, and we have now submitted our application to appeal the High Court's decision on the EHRC's interim guidance.

every shot-on-video, made-with-a-camcorder horror movie that's just some teenage friend group fucking around in the woods with some fake blood and a monster mask contains more artistic merit, human joy and creative light than anything AI has ever made or will ever, ever make

I hope this is just the beginning of many, many men being arrested, convicted and jailed.

Sometimes I get a little upset when I live in a collapsing dystopia for many years

Hey so I finished writing my first draft of this and I'm v proud of myself! I've called it Sharp Edges, subtitled "Hot NPCs to fight or fuck". I've tried to include something for everyone (including the monster fuckers 😏) Next step is finding an artist!

I said when this was announced that the only ethical response was everyone leaving and joining trans inclusive groups in protest. I’m impressed by the hundreds of women who have:

UK PEOPLE - PAL ACTION is STILL PROSCRIBED pending appeal & further action by the courts!! If you are rightfully celebrating this huge win against the state it is STILL a terrorist offence to announce direct support for this organisation. Be CAREFUL with how you POST about this victory 🇵🇸✊

BREAKING: government’s decision to proscribe Palestine Action under terrorism law ruled UNLAWFUL This matters for everyone. For years, the right to protest has been under sustained and deliberate attack. Thousands of people have been arrested for something that should have never been a crime.

The High Court has ruled on our challenge to the EHRC’s interim guidance. The judgment contains some good news for trans rights – but plenty of bad. Read our analysis goodlawproject.org/update/high-...

Discord is already starting to walk things back a little, so people should keep doing what they're doing (cancel Nitro, leave feedback/criticism, direct contact through support tickets/phone/email/etc)

Two days later I'm still thinking about The Bone Temple. I've said before that the art I most appreciate is the kind that has something to say and shouts it loudly. Good lord did that film deliver. ...and ofc I always have a soft spot for weird-yet-kind older men. Dr Kelson you will live forever.

My actual job description is activist and here’s what I tell people in despair all the time: do not underestimate how much harm you can prevent by being just a little bit annoying.

Mandelson’s malign influence runs right through the heart of this Government. Not least in the govt’s NHS data deal with Palantir – a spy-tech firm co-founded by a man who thinks the NHS should be ‘ripped up.’ I've written to Wes Streeting urging him to ditch this dangerous deal.

The Deepest Dark, aka DIE IN A CAVE is crowdfunding! I've never played a game where the ambience is crafted in real time 🤯. We'll be back tomorrow with the second half of our one shot on the @tincanaudio.co.uk twitch channel! In the meantime, catch the p1 vod here www.twitch.tv/tincanaudio/...

I just backed this! Looking forward to reading it =D

Makes you wonder just how dangerously invested the UK is into ai stock and companies if they’re pulling a move this desperate lmao

Abolish ICE. Abolish the border. Abolish the police. A better world is possible if we fight for it.

The UK version of “Project 2025” by the Reform party includes a British ICE, a concentration camp for 24,000 people, mass surveillance and withdrawing from refugee, anti-torture and anti-trafficking conventions. It’s on their website. That’s how comfortable fascists are in the UK today.

I came to Minneapolis to report on what's going on, and one of the main questions I showed up with is "just what is the scale of the resistance?" After all, we're all used to the news calling Portland a "war zone" or whatever when it's just some protests in one part of town.

Ok, I could *really* do with a vague idea of how many people might be interested in this event, otherwise finding a suitable venue is a nonsense. I've set up a temporary event page here: ti.to/tabletop-unc... If you're conceptually interested, please click through and register your interest!

as performance art, this is infinitely better than anything you could generate with AI

This isn't the first time I've had to post this. So I hope you understand by now that I haven't forgotten.

When I think of the death of children in USA school shootings and the shooting of children in Gaza - I think “how many more children need to die to change governments’ opinions and actions “ and yet again i discover , they just don’t matter.

“Uruguay did what most nations still call impossible: it built a power grid that runs almost entirely on renewables—at half the cost of fossil fuels. The physicist who led that transformation says the same playbook could work anywhere—if governments have the courage to change the rules.”

Gentle reminder that EVERYONE shot by ICE or the police is innocent. Every single one. Cops aren't Judge Dredd. A person is innocent until proven guilty IN A COURT, so until a person is found guilty by a judge or jury, they're innocent. They're ALL innocent.

I cannot emphasize enough the importance of finding one constructive real world offline thing you can do to use your particular skills in service of fighting fascism as a psychological defense against the constant drumbeat of fuckery

“You think your pain and your heartbreak are unprecedented in the history of the world, but then you read. It was books that taught me that the things that tormented me most were the very things that connected me with all the people who were alive, who had ever been alive.” -- James Baldwin

important message to all bluesky users

I truly have to believe this (and I do! like, I think it is absolutely true). But I need to remember and hold it inside my heart these days.

"I'm calling to demand the immediate dismantling of ICE for the murder of a woman in Minneapolis today and the impeachment of the President for his support of that murder" is the easiest call to my senators and representative I've ever made

Justice for the people of Minneapolis. Justice for immigrants, for queer and trans people, for poor people, for Black and Brown and Indigenous people, and for anyone and everyone struggling against imperialism and colonization and racism. ABOLISH ICE. ABOLISH ICE. ABOLISH ICE.

Wish I could internalize this

To all those saying "but if our government spoke out, there might be consequences", please remember that not speaking out also has consequences. The history of appeasement is not a reassuring one.

Screaming "wtf" and waiting for a spontaneous uprising is going to discourage you. There won't be a spontaneous uprising. That's just not where the people are at. Organize for the long term. Build community. Build resilience. Have a strategy for whatever corner of this thing you're working on.
