"My Name is Cow" could be a powerful thriller.

CW: rape US military bases in the UK are effectively acting as consequence-free rape centres. They should all be shut down. Why aren't the "protect our women and girls" crew storming these bases?

Ugh sympathies ♥️

Students from Gaza being denied visas to study here because they can't supply original bank statements or account for gaps in their education. Shameful. www.rte.ie/news/educati...

I am not sure where my degree certificate is, and because I used to have a job arranging replacements for lost degree certificates I can confirm this is not an uncommon situation.

Home Office genuinely needs to be abolished and its responsibilities split up, with immigration and asylum under an independent authority. Even by its low standards, standards which are being supported by the reappointment of Mahmood by Burnham, this is sickening. www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2026...

Suddenly reminded that Anne Widdicombe was obituarised favourably as a person who always enjoyed an argument, and in my experience that is a useful indicator of how thoroughly I will dislike a person.

1/3 Companies such as Palantir supply technology to the Israel Defence Forces that is used in attacks on Palestinians. Yet, instead of holding these companies to account, the UK Government continues to award them taxpayer-funded contracts.

I have the ebook. Genuinely good novelisation of an RPG campaign and benefits heavily from the focus not being on combat. Also fitting the mood, it is sometimes quite gruelling.

Maybe this is me being overly rose-tinted, but I don't remember "(non-explosive) property damage is terrorism" being a common opinion outside local Tory councillors when I was younger

And this is why disabled and older people in England are currently forced to sit in their own urine because they can’t get to the toilet.

It’s astonishing how liberalism in Britain just laid down and died, probably around the time the spooks went to the Guardian office and smashed those hard drives. If this had happened in the 2000s, half of the press and parliament would’ve been up in arms. Now, hoping it all just goes away, at best

I am not a lawyer, but I do not believe seeking asylum is illegal, and is in fact an act protected by international law, but perhaps I do not understand the intricacies of UK law

Really glad that a Labour government decided to dilute the legal definition of terrorism to look tough. Especially glad they did it when we're presently heading towards a far-right government, I'm sure that won't have any unintended consequences

shithole government.

This should be a "you no longer have a contract and you are locked out of the professional bodies" situation

One thing you can absolutely guarantee in life. When Labour ministers talk about difficult choices, it's never the rich and powerful that will be taking a hit.

And I don't think a single senior officer went to prison for conspiracy to rape.

2 Israeli settlers were killed yesterday when a Palestinian they were attacking managed to take their gun off them. That man, Farouk, was then killed by the IOF, along with 3 of his neighbours & the fascist state has launched vengeful pogroms in response. This is Zionism, & always has been.

The silence on Washington's looting of Venezuela from other Western capitals is really deafening. Imagine what that stolen $13 billion could do for Venezuelans after the earthquake destroyed their country.
