In case you're wondering, authoritarians use this strategy of escalation to manufacture crisis, provoke outrage, then use the reaction to justify repression. It’s not about restoring order, it's about creating a spectacle of chaos they can claim only they can control.

The conditions that have led to what’s happening in the US today exist in democracies around the world. They are an inevitable outcome of our collective failure to adapt to fundamental changes in the information ecosystem on which our democracies were originally built.

We love Lionel Richie…but for less than the cost of a ticket to see him live (even the cheap seats!), you could spend three full days at Supersonic Festival — discovering cutting-edge, independent new music. That’s pretty wild Support independent artists and organisations doing things differently.

That about wraps it up for the sun at @trentbridge.co.uk

I don't read reviews because my brain just can't deal with them, but I like this photo and I very much appreciate LeftLion, Nigel and Michael for giving me my first coverage in the Nottingham music press!
