Happy 80th Birthday to Robert Wyatt. Here's one we made a while ago featuring the great man @glassmodernr.bsky.social @gidcoe.bsky.social @thepastels.bsky.social @finlaymacdonald.bsky.social youtu.be/2xDXNq19liE?... glassmodern.bandcamp.com/album/tutti-... glassmodern.bandcamp.com/album/orkest...

What's happening in the US right now can, and if these people are elected will, happen here.

They are murdering citizens in the streets because releasing the Epstein files will bring down the whole system.

With the appalling BBC coverage of the murder of Alex Petti by ICE in Minneapolis: leading on "contrasting narratives" when the video evidence speaks for itself, people in England are finally waking up to what we in Scotland have been saying about the BBC for decades.

in case you're curious about how angry Minnesota is about ICE, it was -20 today

💘 Celebrating the captivating Nastassja Kinski on her birthday. 💘 On the Criterion Channel, watch her iconic performance alongside Harry Dean Stanton in Wim Wenders's PARIS, TEXAS (1984) alongside archival interviews, deleted scenes, and more from our edition of the film.

The greatest Glasgow film.

🚨URGENT - we need to stop the DWP from targeting young disabled people - give evidence to the latest consultation www.thecanary.co/uk/analysis/...

Autism is often described as a “difference, not a disability.” That framing is usually meant to sound affirming. And I understand the impulse behind it. But it misses THE essential point. Autism is a neurological difference. It’s also a disability. Those aren’t opposites.

Autism is a neurotype and a disability. Yes, in a world built around neuronormative assumptions, productivity, and independence-as-worth. But also because some of the things that comes along it - sensory and physical things. Naming that isn’t pessimistic or ableist - it’s real.

And being real is what allows us to build lives, communities, and systems that don’t require constant self-betrayal just to survive. That’s the point folx.

'Berman's lyrics are often melancholic, deceptively simple, funny and modest, with a sense of acute intelligence and curiosity that has somehow fallen in on itself under the weight of it all, left standing bemused and amused in the wreckage' The Strange World of #DavidBerman buff.ly/wf8j77h

The media needs to start calling Trump's Republican Party America's "far right" or "extreme right." They are no different from Germany's AfD, France's National Front, or Hungary's Fidesz parties. Why isn't this happening?

When Trump dies we get Vance. Thiel’s pet. They'll blame a lot of stuff on Trump AND try to fast-track an even uglier white supremacist techno-Christofascism. We must prept for this now & organize accordingly. Grassroots activism, coalitions. Dissent. Sand in gears. Strikes. Every angle.

Happy Birthday, David. You are so missed.

Where the hell are the damn unions? The fascist Starmer regime is a grave threat to civil liberties and human rights. @unison.org.uk @andreaegangs.bsky.social @unitetheunion.bsky.social @tuc.org.uk @rmtunion.bsky.social

Fucking fascists. Get them out now!

Like fleeing Jeffrey Dahmer's house and running past three verified safe houses to the house of Ted Bundy, above whose front door is sprayed 'I am also a serial killer, and you are my type. lol'

Healthcare is to keep people alive. Housing is to stop people being homeless. Education is to stop the world ending up like the USA. There should be no profit in any of them.

Europe is making a fatal mistake in it's reaction to Trump's imperialism; its naivete is deeply dangerous.  European leaders still think that they are involved in a negotiation with Trump. They think that polite diplomacy will work, but this is no longer a rules-based game.

Ffs people - pay attention to Palantir

Keir Starmer has NOT condemned the murder of Renee Good by ICE. Think about that.

Who is Palantir UK's Louis Mosley and why is he on the BBC? Grandson of a fascist working for one of the world’s most evil and dangerous organisations now embraced by a Labour government in defence and health. Madness

🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 If we had decent, fair media coverage in Scotland, we would have heard about this on the news. But we don't, so I'm sharing it on Bluesky in the hope that you'll do the same. Thanks @snp.org. 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

One year gone, never forgotten. #DavidLynchForever

Have you ever wondered why Germans didn’t do anything about Hitler? Well, the rest of the world is wondering exactly that about Americans and Trump.

Poor guy. I hope he sues the scumbag fascist thugs. Every decent human being in the US needs to resist these bastards, because they won’t stop here. Sickening.

periodic reminder that your creative and artistic work has ripple effects beyond your field of view, and that it's good for your soul and happiness, and yes that's important. please keep going, keep making and sharing, especially when it's grim. don't ever stop, we need you

Stop the "Catapult Killer Influencers": Across the UK, children and teenagers are buying military-grade catapults hunting for "content". But now there’s something we can all do to end this sickening social media trend. Add your name: you.38degrees.org.uk/petitions/en...

Unhook ourselves from oil and gas and we unhook ourselves from dependency on dictators, autocrats and expansionist regimes all over the planet. Renewables and other low-carbon energy sources are not just good climate sense. They are also good political sense.

Please remember, there's no perfect system. Yes, renewables cause damage, but it is far, far smaller per MWh than the damage caused by fossil fuels. Yes, there are some dirty interests associated with clean power, but ditto. Yes, we need to limit our energy demand. But we still need sources.

Many of those who complain about mining for batteries / solar / wind power have curiously never raised a squeak about the far greater extraction required for fossil energy. Funny how they become concerned about the planet only when fossil fuel interests are threatened.

The same goes for people who express a new-found concern for the poor when an energy transition beckons. They attempt this gambit even today, when renewables are cheaper than fossil fuels. In reality, such people couldn't give a damn about the planet, or poverty. They are concern trolls.

Protesters snatched from the streets after being interviewed on TV. This isn't some foreign dictatorship. This is the United States.

Béla Tarr, RIP. One of cinema's great philosopher poets. He crafted work of sublime beauty & humanity. A huge loss.

I will never, ever, understand people who want to outsource their humanity. Learning how to make something feels amazing. And I mean the whole process, including the frustrating times. Because then you know you MADE it. You can't feel genuine pride in something you didn't make.

Hell World. Hell World. Hell World.

Here's an idea: Rob Reiner's daughters should sue Trump for $20 billion dollars (evidently Trump's favorite number) for slander, defamation, inciting violence, and intentional infliction of emotional distress.

URGENT: If you can make it to HMP Bronzefield PLEASE go, the state is trying to kill her

Yeah. We do own too much stuff. But not owning anything makes you a serf.

The whole of my life, the anti consumerist, anti corporate, anti capitalist message was that we all “owned too much stuff”. But it turns out that owning stuff can actually be both a comfort and a rebellious act, because making you rent it keeps you on a much shorter leash, at their whim.

Great record.

@stereolabgroop.bsky.social were great at @swg3glasgow.bsky.social tonight. Probably my favourite show of theirs since the 90’s. Buzzing! 😊

The new Half Japanese album is really good! They sound amazingly fresh for band who formed in 1974. Jad Fair is in that category of "enthusiasm kept me young". The perfect fit for #freshingredients
