Happy Death of Captain Cook day! May all would-be kidnappers be handed their arses! Strength and solidarity to all indigenous peoples standing in their sovereignty against agents of oppressive racist colonialist states!
An old trading card showing a drawing of the syphilitic, tubercular racist Captain James Cook about to be righteously killed by the people of the island of Hawai'i Back of trading card, text reads: Death of Capt. Cook Among England's syphilitic, tubercular scumbags wasCapt. James Cook. He voyaged all over the Pacific from tropical islands to the icy shores of Bering Strait spreading death & disease and racist colonialism to the mighty continent of Australia. On Feb. 14, 1779, he visited Kealakekua Bay, Hawaii. There, on the shore, he was killed while trying to kidnap Kalani'õpu'u. MAN'S PAST is stained with BLOOD; His FUTURE can be bright with PROMISE - if in the PRESENT he will wage PEACE. 1950 Bowman Gum, Inc., Phila., Pa., U.S.A. 47- in the Second Series of 36 Wild Man Picture Cards There's also a logo with stars that says Picture Card Collectors Club

Palestine Action have WON their judicial review in the High Court!
A massive victory for free speech, freedom of association and the right to protest.
A massive defeat for the draconian attempts by Keir Starmer's government to curtail our fundamental rights.

Chloe Kim so gracious. She and her father struck up a friendship with Choi and her father, bringing the latter to Mammoth Mountain to train with them. She calls it a “full-circle moment.”
Chloe Kim's protégé foiled her Olympic three-peat dreams. She's celebrating anyway
Korea's Gaon Choi, 17, rebounded from a hard fall to win gold — and end her role model's historic bid for three in a row in the Winter Olympic halfpipe.

Well holy fucking shit. Ring cancelled their partnership with Flock. Keep pressure on them to stop volunteering their feeds to state, local, and federal agencies, though, because that part's still going.

Happy 30th birthday to Daniil Medvedev, one of the great philosophers of our age. I’m sure @girinathan.bsky.social will agree with me here
A screenshot of a Medvedev quote: I think it’s actually easier to enjoy life when you have no brain. Because then you just scream - no matter if the guy is serving or not - you just scream and enjoy life. I wonder what that is, I want to see how it is inside because I have no idea.

Of all the Olympic scandals and dramas so far, the Finnish ski jumping coach getting sent home for drunkenness is somehow reassuringly quaint: at least some things are as they always were.

It's fitting testimony to both Chris Minns' political acuity & the sheer bravery of NSW Police that it took six of his uniformed goons to tackle a septuagenarian opposed to the crime of genocide to the ground.

This is obviously not any sort of apology to the Muslim community. This is in fact directly offensive, and a deliberate provocation.

Personally, I condemn the actions of police that may have impacted on the religious thing on there, regardless of context.
Mal Lanyon also said the act of dispersing people was not targeting any religion or religious process. "I have apologised for any offence taken by the actions of police that may have impacted on the religious thing on there, but it needs to be put in context," he said.

If you have a ring camera, it is possible to return it and get a refund, and looking into doing so might be well worth your time.

Something compelled me to make this
A screenshot of a mocked-up Guardian headline, which reads: "Ignore the smears: I was never the one who ate a full tub of Lurpack off the kitchen counter." The byline is: "My dog." And there's a picture of my dog, posing with a serious expression, like a journalist. She is a black labrador type dog with brown eyes, grey muzzle and shiny, silky fur on her face, wearing a pink collar. Underneath the headline continues: "Listen, I'm a good girl. I don't know how butter stealers thrive in our political culture, but it's clear there was a failure of moral seriousness." There's then a link to another article, headlined: "Footage of Lola eating the butter, which cost her owners £300, was captured on a dog cam." It's a parody of this article from Wes Streeting in the Guardian: https://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2026/feb/09/peter-mandelson-wes-streeting-vetting-moral-seriousness
