You've traveled this far on the back of every mistake,
ridden in dark-eyed and morose but calm as a house
after the TV set has been pitched out the upstairs
window. Harmless as a broken ax.

If ever there was a mask off moment for this administration, this is probably the most blatant example of just what their priorities are.
A reminder for those who are not aware: "remigration" is the process of deporting all non-white people from a country. It includes citizens and is, by definition, ethnic cleansing.

And to be clear: this is not fake. I just screenshot it myself.

Experimentation, risk-taking, invention, whatever you call it, is everything. And when entities of outsized power, whatever the form, begin to impede that process, it is every single layer of this industry that suffers. https://bit.ly/4rw43oW

PSA - Barbotage suuuuuuuuuucks. F'king hell, man. Can barely move my arm today it's so stiff and sore.

I gotta say, I am not loving my fifties so far. Definitely like a solid 4 outta 10 at this point. Would not recommend.

MAJOR: The Trump Administration has been caught lying about the D.C. shooting suspect.

The truth: He was vetted by Trump. He had a CIA badge, worked with the CIA in Afghanistan, and granted asylum by Trump in April.

The call campaign is having an effect! The pressure right now is integral, if you are making calls, PLEASE KEEP CALLING. If you havent called yet or took a break, now is a GREAT time to hop on and add to the pressure!

The European Council has agreed on a version of Chat Control that it wishes to push forward in 2026.

This version contains "voluntary" mass scanning, mandatory universal age checks, and isolating minors from apps.

Chat Control still needs to be fought.

CALL YOUR MPs/MEPs!
Reality Check: EU Council Chat Control Vote is Not a Retreat, But a Green Light for Indiscriminate Mass Surveillance and the End of Right to Communicate Anonymously
Contrary to headlines suggesting the EU has "backed away" from Chat Control, the negotiating mandate endorsed today by EU ambassadors in a close split vote paves the way for a permanent infrastructure...

Whenever fuckers like the Tories or that slimy Russian bootlicker Nigel Farage talk about getting rid of the NHS and replacing it with the American system, THIS is the shit they're talking about.

People being denied lifesaving care to promote a company's "swagger".

Fuck these people.

If you've never checked this game out on Steam, I highly recommend it. It's honestly a great time, with some gorgeous, retro art design. It's great to see folks like Spaceshipper shouting it out.

It's less than £13 on Steam!
I'm glad, and honestly surprised, that 300 people have already read this article about a recent indie sci-fi turn-based game, which is obviously not very well known. Bsky is magic.

It's always a risky bet to devote time to a non-franchise topic, but I'm happy with the result.

Aw boo. Always loved Udo in everything he was in, the man always delivered even when in utter dreck. Got to see him dripping disdain in my recent Blade rewatch for spooky season.

🇺🇦 Zelensky: The crux of the entire diplomatic situation is that it was Russia, and only Russia, that started this war, and it is Russia, and only Russia, that has been refusing to end it throughout the full-scale invasion.

So we finally got around to watching The Witcher season 4 with Geralt from Wish and fucking hell. I mean FUCKING hell.

That was bad. That was nothing but fluff and filler with Geralt wandering around accomplishing basically nothing until it ended. Good God.
