"Ball wasn’t just a bloke from Blackpool – he, too, was a radical, as bold and as forward-thinking as any of his contemporaries." Thanks to @paddyclarke.bsky.social for this lovely tribute to Dave Ball of Soft Cell and The Grid thequietus.com/news/remembe...

Not the WSJ having the only even moderately acceptable push alert here. NYT and NBC with basic journalism fails here.

We are so sad to hear that Dave Ball, the keyboard genius of Soft Cell, has died. He was an electronic pop pioneer and with Marc Almond made a unique catalogue of songs, completely original in sound and content. Our love and condolences go to Marc and all those close to Dave. Neil and Chris xx

This is the asymmetry in our politics and media. If this was the other way around, Biden had pardoned someone then charged with trying to kill Trump, it would be the biggest story in America and every Republican commentator, congressman, news outlet, would be screaming about it in unison.

Pedro Pascal was spotted at the LA No Kings protest with the best sign there.

At this point, if you're interviewing a Republican about the president's latest transgression and you *don't* have the video or post or whatever cued up and ready to show them when they pretend they haven't seen it yet -- I'm just going to assume you're in on the con yourself.

Finally came across video of an arrest at a #NoKings event yesterday. 🙄

Both-sides-ism at its most dangerous. Call it what it was; a completely peaceful demonstration.

The BBC are accidentally running the subtitles to Mrs Marple over the Mercury Prize, and it’s rather wonderful. A few of lines could plausibly have been written by Jarvis.

Q: Politico reported on a group chat of young Republicans. Does this just reflect some bad apples? HOCHUL: Some bad apples? These are the future of the GOP. This is so vile it's hard to find the words to put into context ... there's gotta be consequences ... this bullshit has to stop.

The inflatables have made it to Broadview.

Trump, speaking in the Israeli parliament, boasts about the weapons the U.S. has provided and says "you obviously used them very well." An estimated 20,000 children have died in the war in Gaza.

Watching the Bibi & Don Show treat this like some grand victory, while people returning to northern Gaza dig the rubble for loved ones' remains, is pretty revolting.

I’m a #Meidas super fan, so great to get more of their backstory in this piece from The Guardian. Meidas is the news and information we all need and deserve. They help make sense of - and reframe - the bizarre, lopsided, and unhinged MSM “reporting” in these times.

"A future president, even dumber than you, will allow Qatar, the country that harbored Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, the architect of the plane attacks in NY, PA, and DC today, and whose royal family will help him escape capture by the US, to build a military base on US soil to train Qataris to fly jets."

Do I get arrested if I put this up? #FreePalestine

Huh: TikTok took down my 8-second video featuring this image of Debbie Brockman — the news producer just detained by Trump’s CBP agents — saying it violates the “joy of TikTok”

Bad luck Donald. Maybe next (life)time. #NobelPeacePrize

Everything Trump is doing now is a preamble for his regime's real goal: to invoke the Insurrection Act. I don’t want to unduly alarm you, but you need to be aware of this imminent danger. Let me explain what’s going on.

FACT! Alongside Julie Walters, Patricia Routledge is the only person to have been in Victoria Wood As Seen On TV and Talking Heads, apart from Tina Weymouth, who played bass and Miss Babs in an establishing shot of Acorn Antiques.

What has Yvette Cooper’s proscription of Palestine Action done to this country? Beyond absurd. It’s extreme authoritarianism. These police should be arresting rapists & crooks, not neglecting those duties to spend time arresting citizens standing against genocide. It undermines police and the law.
