A furious but optimistic woke, progressive secularist and proud MD ANT! Still absolutely livid about Brexshit, angry at the state of politics and horrified at the climate emergency.
A gem!
I'm always amazed, not only at the new versions @marshfamilysongs.bsky.social manage to put together, but the speed at which they get them out after events occur.
Possibly, very possibly, their best to date, certainly top 3.

We hope the good people of #SanFrancisco will forgive us for adapting a song about their city in 1967 to address the shocking and tragic events in #Minnesota in recent weeks. This is dedicated to Renée Good and Alex Pretti, and in solidarity. Our version is called "Minnesota" ❤️

In September, Musk tweeted “this is false” in response to a Forbes article based on previously released documents that stated he “planned a trip to Epstein’s private island.” He also wrote “Epstein tried to get me to go to his island and I REFUSED.”

Yeah.. okay. Emails here:
Musk to Epstein: ‘What Day/Night Will Be the Wildest Party on Your Island?’
New emails show Musk has been lying about his relationship with Epstein.

It's minus 12°C outside in Ukraine.
The room where the youth orchestra rehearses is also cold, and due to the lack of electricity, they have to use a speaker and a battery to recharge it. But despite this, rehearsals continue.

It hasn’t gone unnoticed that all four people arrested today, including two journalists, were Black.

And now we find out the charge is “conspiracy to violate civil rights,” a statute rooted in the Ku Klux Klan Act.

Sit with that.

The actual story in the copy: SNP is "clear ahead" of Scottish Labour in this poll, there is "recent evidence that Reform's support has peaked".

The framing: Reform surges ahead of Labour

I am *so* fed up of this

Amazon just announced another round of 16,000 layoffs, months after it laid off 14,000 workers.

Reminder that Amazon CEO Andy Jassy raked in over $40M in 2024.

And Amazon is spending at least $75 million producing and promoting the Melania documentary.

The system is rigged.

Way to go, Philadelphia! The city has introduced new legislation putting real limits on ICE activity. Federal agents will no longer be allowed to operate anonymously no masks, visible identification required, and arrests must be backed by warrants signed by a federal judge.

I wrote this song on Saturday, recorded it yesterday and released it to you today in response to the state terror being visited on the city of Minneapolis. It’s dedicated to the people of Minneapolis, our innocent immigrant neighbors and in memory of Alex Pretti and Renee Good.

Electoral Calculus has Greens gaining Gorton and Denton from Labour.

If this transpires to be the case, it will be the first and biggest by-election th Greens would win.
