ICE is now responsible for 66% of the homicides in Minneapolis this year.

Alex Pretti seemed like an awesome guy who was doing what every person not being targeted by ICE should do. But even if he was an asshole, no one should be executed by government thugs in the streets. There is no statute of limitations on murder so their day will come.

Had a delightful time at Black Box in Belfast - now 4 hours sleep to then fly to Birmingham to take train to Cardiff to do show at 2pm tomorrow gfsboxoffice.com/event.php?id...

"Keshed is original, difficult and revelatory. There are echoes of James Kelman and Hubert Srlby Jr but Hennigan's voice is entirely his own."

I try to avoid hyperbole when it comes to Trump policies, but this is absolutely frickin’ insane—on about eleventy different levels. Massive, systemic Fourth Amendment violations because … reasons.

Here’s a short poem about the power of poetry to change the world.

Awesome 5 star review of @billtaylor-beales.bsky.social and Phil Okwedy’s Blues Echoes show! I know I’m biased but - got to say I totally agree with everything that is said here!! www.buzzmag.co.uk/blues-echoes...

New— An American citizen boarding flight from Boston to Lisbon just now told me after showing boarding pass, every passenger stopped on jetway by two ICE agents demanding to take their photo. When passenger asked why, ICE threatened to detain them. If they said no photo, couldn't board/TBD detained.

Superb musings on the nature of counterculture here.

It was a joy to go on this lovely podcast and talk of four songs that mean a lot to me - I decided to be half childhood and half 21st century - much great rebel music talked of podcasts.apple.com/nz/podcast/4... #music

The hunger strikers have ended their 73-day strike after forcing the cancellation of Elbit’s £2 billion contract. This is a people-powered victory—but it comes at a horrific, lifelong cost.

Little shout out for ‘ Becoming Victoria Wood ‘ doc 🙌🏼🎬 #comedy #music #documentary #performance ❤️🙌🏼☀️

When I was a freelance BBC science presenter, I wrote in support of Professor Dorothy Bishop and was then told I should not be critical of the Royal Society. Now I’ve resigned, so I can say I think @profrachelgan.bsky.social is making an important point here.

Really looking forward to this! Folks in and around Cardiff area come along!!

Hugely excited for our first new An Uncanny Hour podcast on 31st January - @alicelowetime.bsky.social David McAlmont and Mark Gatiss www.kingsplace.co.uk/whats-on/com...

People in Cardiff turned OUT. So excited how fast our movement is booming! Join us: Join.greenparty.org.uk

And despite it all, this is Tehran 🇮🇷

A considered piece about Robin Ince and his stand. Some excellent writing here, I implore you to read it. skepchick.org/2026/01/the-...

If you read one thing today, let it be this: “An Elegy for My Neighbor, Renee Nicole Good: Fellow poet Danez Smith memorializes the Minneapolis mother's call to witness” ❤️💔 www.harpersbazaar.com/culture/feat...

New post up, for all the self proclaimed poets & those who proclaim love and beauty - for Renee Good. “If someone smiles or cries, feels less alone or more enthused, when you read your work out aloud you have made something wonderful.” thecosmicshamblesnetwork.substack.com/p/the-world-...

hiding the child porn behind a paywall just means you've officially turned the child porn into a business, babe.

she was a poet among other things where do the poems go when the poet has been killed? I picture the snow in Minnesota falling on a lake and want to write her name— Renee— on its cold white page

The ICE agent who murdered Renee Good must be prosecuted for murder. He enjoys no immunity from state murder charges. Then, Blue state governors must call up their National Guard to protect us from the armed ICE terrorists. My latest in @thenation.com www.thenation.com/article/soci...

'Small Bird' by Kate Boxer, contemporary UK painter and printmaker #WomensArt

The end goal of Grok sexual harassment is to make women afraid to be visible. It’s a punishment for daring to exist in a way the perpetrators can’t control. There’s no one solution to this, because the problem isn’t just technological. It’s cultural. It’s misogyny. This is just one expression of it.

I'm writing about the Palestine Action hunger strikers at the moment, any of whom could die at any moment, and the astonishing media and government silence surrounding them. The Establishment seems to have become even crueller than when Thatcher was PM.

Release the unredacted Epstein files.

Not one word of condemnation by our government of Trump's illegal act of war in Venezuela. Not one word.

Spray paint a plane and they'll detain you without trial and call you a terrorist. Kidnap a foreign head of state - and Keir Starmer will make it clear we've played no part in it but will wait for the scheduled press conference in a few hours before potentially condemning it

Unless I'm missing something, and I'm pretty sure I'm not, Twitter's AI is cranking out CSAM deepfakes, Elon Musk is making jokes about it, and nobody is doing anything to stop it or hold anyone at Twitter accountable for its creation and distribution. Is that right?

The utmost respect, awe & admiration for Robin’s fiercely principled stand which is entirely representative of the caring compassionate person he is. In a just society, nothing he has said would be controversial or even necessary, simply basic human decency. All love to him for trying to make it so

Total respect for Robin and the reasons for his choice to resign (and personally think his speech said all that needed to be said in the Goldilocks zone of a good speech length!)

Sunrise, 1916 By Georgia O'Keeffe #WomensArt #NewYearsDay2026

Happy 2026! To start the year, here's a tree ring chiton, a 5cm ocean mollusk that sticks to rocks. Instead of having obvious eyes on a head, it's got 100s of tiny eyes embedded in the hard plates on its back, each with a rock crystal to focus light. Its top is one big eye spying on the world above

Bob Dylan wrote it, Jimi Hendrix brought it into full colour, and Rick Lollar channels Jimi’s approach as the band and I crash through “All Along The Watchtower” at the Bowery last November. The most fun you can have invoking an apocalypse, I reckon…

On 13 February 1990, from a distance of 6.4 billion km, NASA's Voyager 1 spacecraft turned around and photographed our homeworld. About halfway up on the right side is a tiny speck of light, about one pixel across. "That's home. That's us. A mote of dust suspended in a sunbeam." —Carl Sagan

It’s conventional on New Year’s Eve to do a review of the year. The year I have decided to review is 1964. (Artist: Ronald Lampitt, Look and Learn)
