This comes from quite a mad project of personal oral history interviews with all the people who were chosen by lottery to be part of Antony Gormley's spend-an-hour-on-the-fourth-plinth thing.

TIL that cartoon baddie Roger Wratten went on from demolishing Tony's Cafe in Broadway Market to throwing coins at homeless people in the name of art. wellcomecollection.org/works/wq8uqnvj

40 years ago we’d have congressional hearings falsely accusing metal bands of putting backwards messages in their songs that told kids to kill themselves & now we have a planet-killing chatbot that’s all like “bet you won’t commit suicide chickenshit bitch” & the government is like here’s $5 billion

A long shot, but does anyone out there have a copy of this Doris Troy album, and if so would you be willing to rip me some audio of 'My Father's House'? I would be eternally grateful 🙏

Great investigation of the Nazis, racists and criminals mobilising the flag-on-lamp-posts movement. This is the kind of journalism that the national media could and should have conducted: manchestermill.co.uk/the-men-who-...

New article on the datacide website: In June 2024 the Interior Minister of Germany took the unusual step to ban the far right media organisation 'Compact' Magazine & TV. A year later the highest court has decided to lift the ban. Context and background: datacide-magazine.com/compact-maga...

AI always calling your ideas “fantastic” can feel inauthentic, but what are sycophancy’s deeper harms? We find that in the common use case of seeking AI advice on interpersonal situations—specifically conflicts—sycophancy makes people feel more right & less willing to apologize.

I took this pic a few years ago but walked past this sign at the weekend again and instantly had "walk my little doggie..." echoing around my head RIP Dave Ball

After an afternoon traipsing through Nunhead cemetery I have found the location of The Cramps 1990 photoshoot with photographer Joe Dilworth, full details here (updated post) transpont.blogspot.com/2025/10/the-... note @frazerlee.bsky.social @johnedenuk.bsky.social

you can be glad a child sex offender is dead and also feel discomfort that this disgusting prison system gets to decide who it extends protection to and who it doesn't

So: 1. Bray gets fascist death threats 2. He leaves the country. 3. The administration uses this to claim that the leaders of the “antifa terrorist network” or whatever are fleeing the country so they’re not arrested

30 minutes of U Roy on the Blood & Fire soundsystem in Japan in 2006 at the end of this. Really really nice performance and sound quality. "Now hear what my mama say: if you can't be good be careful!" www.nts.live/shows/blood-...

Today's statement about "Fighting Back Against Antifa Violence" from the DHS contains a false conspiracy theory about our member crew Rose City Antifa. RCA has not doxed any ICE agents, a fact confirmed by going to the URL DHS conveniently censored from their photo. RCA did not put up this flyer.

#OnThisDay in London policing history, 1999: cops shoot Harry Stanley dead in Hackney, after a chair leg he is carrying in a bag is mistaken for a gun. wp.me/p74yfw-vM

youtu.be/eQDyeEfExtM?... new Dave Ball remix. 🎃

We need to understand the libidinal composition of anglofascism. It's a carnival, it's pints and packet on a Saturday. It's the feeling the cruelty might finally be worth it, because you get your share, laundered through the images of owned lib, sad migrant, and the cheeky, horny, deporter in chief.

This is the way to report on the far right. UK newspapers take note

This made my day today. Police pulled over a dalek outside DSEI, London's arms fair, scanned the QR code on its lanyard and were taken to my fake Royal Navy recruitment website - royalnavy.org.uk

TIL that Martin Price of 808 State is the same Martin Price who worked at Eastern Bloc records and successfully defended the shop in an obscenity case brought by "God's cop" James Anderson in relation to a window display of Flux of Pink Indians' album "The Fucking Cunts Treat Us Like Pricks".

Finally a reckoning for this creep. The unstated story here was always the C of E letting him get away with it all for so long.

Sad to hear that Channel One studio engineer Barnabas died yesterday. He helped shape the legendary Channel One sound in the 70s/80s and was also the DJ on their sound system. He made a few appearances on vinyl, like on this 12"... youtu.be/FOzg8nyicbQ?... #reggae #reggaesky #vinylsky #musicsky

Taking part involves an online questionnaire and would be much appreciated.

Balli in the area!
