Despicable human scum. Worse than a dog. Perpetrator of thrice-cursed acts of treachery. JoJo fanboy.

Decided I'm going to start a thread of lesser-known live bands I think are (or were) great. Firstly, on the back on the announcement for their first album in 12 years, wonderful Icelandic glitch-poppers múm:

This is an incredible read about how one editor at a Toronto publication uncovered the fact that a prospective freelancer was a fraud who's been getting AI-generated articles published across the globe.

The kicker says a lot, too. Just give it a read. Amazing from @nickhunebrown.bsky.social.
Investigating a Possible Scammer in Journalism’s AI Era | The Local
A suspicious pitch from a freelancer led editor Nicholas Hune-Brown to dig into their past work. By the end, four publications, including The Guardian and Dwell, had removed articles from their sites.

Just seen people make the "not an anti-semite, just an anti-Zionist" argument about Grzegorz fucking Braun, directly under an article about his speech at Auschwitz where he screamed "Poland For The Poles!" and now I feel
very depressed.

Last night of a 6-gigs-in-5-days marathon, and how the hell did I ever manage this on the regular? (Was tempted by MBV as it's a rare gig on my side of London, but I chose Avalanche Kaito, as they look much more fun)

All I'm going to say is, I understand FB were even worse a decade ago...
Meta was aware that millions of adult strangers were contacting minors on its sites; that its products exacerbated mental health issues in teens; and that content related to eating disorders, suicide, and child sexual abuse was frequently detected, yet rarely removed.

RIP Mani. I was *obsessed* with the Stone Roses when I was 16, so this one hits hard.

The reaction to these sensible measures was extreme..

She received death threats & was told by a BBC journalist 'You're only a woman, you don't drive, what do you know about it?'

This report from the time shows some of the attitudes to the change!

The bus stop near Watford General Hospital is situated in such a liminal space, it feels like you've glitched out-of-bounds in a GTA game.

If you've never seen Masaki Kobayashi's Harakiri today would be a good day. Not only is it one of the greatest films ever made (and one of the most beautiful) it's also a piercing critique of the ruling classes, systems of power and how oppression often masquerades as "tradition".

The Human Condition! Ran! Harakiri! When A Woman Ascends The Stairs! Seven Samurai! Yojimbo! High and Low! Kagemusha! The Tale of Princess Kaguya! What an absolute God-tier career. RIP, Tatsuya Nakadai.

Just finished Cobra Kai. Bunch of cheesy old nonsense, yet at the same time a thoroughly enjoyable martial arts soap opera that (sometimes) tackles toxic masculinity but mostly tackles the righteousness of kicking wankers in the face.

Striking how much of the vile anti-Zohran campaign has mirrored 2016's anti-Sadiq campaign, including the claim that all women would be in burqas within a year (hasn't happened in London yet!) Just pray he receives less open assassination threats...

Being a Brit on BlueSky means seeing 1000x more messaging about an election in New York than your local council. Might as well message Zohran about my bin collection.

Let’s take a look at the whole “there are too many black people on TV” thing, shall we?

After Pochin claimed Black people in TV adverts “made her mad”, all her supporters tried to use 👇🏼 as their excuse for why she was somehow justified in her overt racism.

Spoiler - she isn’t! 🤨
