Tom Baker beat Death in a drinking contest in some Soho basement in the 70s. He's not going yet.

Rape is the distillation of the far-right worldview that Trump embodies: a gleefully sadistic act of domination carried out as fulfillment of a supposedly natural hierarchy. It would be weird if Trump wasn’t a rapist, given his ideological commitments—which is before you get to all the accusations.

Part of the reason I didn't rush to join the Greens is I knew there would be similar issues over trans rights as in Your Party, this time with the Green's old liberal guard. I think momentum is on our side though and it will be less of a battle than with the Your Party MPs

Am I right in thinking Democrats have been sat on this Epstein info?

Spotted some Skullcocks today

7,261 elderly/vulnerable people in care homes given ‘notice to quit’. Major reason: "revenge evictions’. people “threatened with eviction as a result of raising a complaint" Care homes are mostly in the private sector, owned by corporations and private equity, profit margins of up to 40%.

You think they're exaggerating but Wes Streeting has just occupied Heathrow under the guise of an anti-terrorist training exercise

Horrific if this long-standing rumour turns out to be true metro.co.uk/2025/11/12/t...

I wish I could understand Dwarf Fortress

Wood & Goldstraw rebuilt the Alexandra Palace in Longton in 1927 after a fire. It became the famous Shelleys Laserdome Out soon, 'Designing the Future, Respecting the Past: The Wood Goldstraw Yorath Story' Detailing the 150-year history of Stoke-on-Trent's oldest architectural practice

I wish someone would remind Hegseth and Trump that small conflicts have a way of becoming big and nasty wars very quickly. Can't imagine what would have happened if we'd had these amateurs in charge during the Cuban Missile Crisis. www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...

It's the anniversary of my friend Tom's suicide today. He was living independently when he died, but had spent a lot of time sectioned at this hospital www.theguardian.com/society/2025...

Thought of a church poster which says "the opposite of anti-Christ is Christ" with a picture of Jesus

I'm the new James Bond and I have a Licence to Post

Lots of incredible self owns in the guardian atm

I've waited a lifetime to find Striated Bird's Nest fungus, and this week I've seen it twice! Also a magnificent colony of Coral Slime-mould, a troop of another slime-mould Physarum sp. with a lime-encrusted peridium and a heap of Witch's Butter. At @wildlifebcn.org Old Sulehay NR 📷🍄

The problem from their point of view is that rapid decarbonization requires public, collective decisions about the organization of production, in a way that threaten capital-owners' authority over both the production process and the political system.

Remembering my life drawing teacher in Deptford who told us about the time he went naked horse riding on Lesbos with Brian Sewell

Coventry war memorial unsurprisingly banging

Anxiety is the most common mental health condition globally. It’s estimated that 4% to 5% of people in the world have an anxiety disorder at any given time. Long-term surveys in the United States suggest that around one-third of people experience an anxiety disorder at some point in their lives.

Lots of hard, shitty lessons being learned from this presidency. And one of the many I hope you're learning is, white supremacy is incompatible with reality, and cannot exist without historical revisionism.

You'd think people would learn that you can never pander to the right wing enough to stop them turning on you the second it's convenient

I’m old enough to remember when the BBC used old footage of Johnson at the cenotaph, to cover the fact that he was hung over and looked like a burst mattress on a tip. The DG didn’t resign though

I’m not sure why people are surprised that the BBC is biased. From its inception it’s always been biased in favour of the right wing establishment, from the use of BBC English to diminish the voices of those with regional accents to the staggeringly biased reporting on the Troubles to banning

And politicians shrug and say "Something wrong with young people today. Mystery. Can't figure it out. Guess we'll have to bully them some more."

Remembering when I went to buy a t-shirt in Canada and the bloke asked me my fucking name

Fucking cgi I hate it It has removed all the happiness from TV Even with the foil they put a lot of effort in to try to create like an unreal effect Yeah it's obviously foil but they're trying very hard

Spotted Richard III Society repeating the myth that rude carvings in churches were put there by unpaid masons. Instead they relate to a form of spirituality called negative mysticism: achieving salvation by resistance to temptation. More here: triskeleheritage.triskelepublishing.com/2022/09/26/m...

Off to see a Lithuanian film at the pictures don't know anything about it!

Great that when you clean the bathroom your hands smell of cleaning the bathroom forever

Holy shit you sad bastard

OVER A MILLION USERS DISCUSS SUICIDE WITH CHATGPT EVERY *WEEK* what the fuck are we DOING here

our common life depends upon each other's toil

Impact over power is an important concept for the left. The right are flailing and unable to deal with imminent crises, when the shit really hits the fan they will look to us for answers and steal our ideas and that is GOOD

Govt scraps all electrification investment. Midland Main Line to stay forever diesel Leicester Nottingham Derby Sheffield. Hugely embarrassing and inexplicable www.ft.com/content/5ecd...

Incredible that WWII has been the origin myth of the West for 80 years - saturating the culture, looming large in political rhetoric - and yet these leering beasts have been allowed to just saunter back into power as if no one has read a single history book.

Good literary translation requires understanding (language, culture, genre--on both sides of the translation) and an ability to write well. "AI" can't do that. There are no shortcuts. Treat your work and foreign language readers with the respect they deserve. You won't fool anyone with this.

Anyway, here’s Maggot Brain

We don't get enough numbers at our counter demos here, it's a big ask but if you fancy making your way over to be called a paedophile, faggot or fat cunt by someone in a British National Socialists cloak (yes) there's nothing to do here afterwards and it's no fun whatsoever x

The politics of arguers. Pretend not to hear if it's too hard. A party forged in slagging off Corbyn
