Holy grotbags, the Venom bit in @andrewoneillcomedy.bsky.social's History of Heavy Metal has left my face aching because I've been laughing so hard.

Go watch it at your earliest convenience and try not to feel like a bellend because you absolutely should have seen it live.

This book is so good. Anyone interested in music will find gold! From punk to psychedelia to acid house. From handing John Peel a punk 7" to introducing banjo to the masses on Top Of The Pops!
The paperback version of my memoir 'Strange Things Are Happening' is out on 12th Feb. Read the Times Literary Supplement review here - www.the-tls.com/regular-feat...

I'm not putting on any parties or launches for it yet - if you'd like me to talk or DJ at an event for you, please let me know :)

Minneapolis residents are painting tunnels onto brick walls and ICE agents are running into them. This is not funny.

maybe the 6 month old they tear gassed was driving right at them, maybe think about that before you pass judgement

I teach a history of antifascism course @ruhistorydept.bsky.social and figured I'd start an ongoing thread this semester to share some insights from course readings and recommend some great works on antifascism.

Some protesters have reported being hit with rubber bullets close to the scene of a reported shooting in north Minneapolis involving federal agents in the area of W. 25th Street and Lyndale Avenue N.

Federal agents have deployed chemical irritants. Updates here: bit.ly/4sI4z3q

Latest @unraveledpress.com is onsite (thread / videos) and has reported some use of tear gas as well as a CBP BORTAC truck arrived but some federal agents have departed in recent minutes.
Near Lyndale and 24th Ave in Minneapolis tonight, feds have reportedly shot another person.

Preliminary info is shaky for now, hearing two people injured.

BORTAC just rolled up in an armored vehicle. A crowd is gathering outside the police tape—MPD presence as well.

We are aware of reports of a shooting involving federal law enforcement in North Minneapolis. We are working to confirm additional details.

Obviously not - BUT.... they should have varied check in/out times. I work in the evenings, rarely asleep before 2am, usually later, very often don't check in before midnight.

Please can I have a full night's sleep, breakfast and a shower before being booted out on the street?

Every now and then I catch myself imagining what the more advanced people in the future will think of us. Eg. buying fully-charged batteries and throwing the dead ones in landfill.

Then I remember that human progress is not inevitable and things seem to be regressing horribly.

HAVE A GREAT DAY!

Time I mentioned this pod again because I've had quite a lot of new followers as people flee the burning wreckage of 'X'. Some of you would really like it and it's the perfect time to catch up, as it doesn't return until the 25th*

*how can I know if it's a perfect time for you? Podcasts (1/3)
Episode six will be out tomorrow, after which there's a two-week break (25 eps in total). It has been lovely how people have responded to this. You might like it: podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/m...

#GVerse The Black Panthers have re-entered the chat!

The Panthers are a revolutionary socialist group that fed & protected the community.

They were such a threat to the dictatorship of capital they were falsely labeled “terrorists.” Their reemergence is necessary.
