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.

Took in a 'dog friendly' screening of Hamnet yesterday. The film starts with Jessie Buckley whistling at a hawk, but the entire canine element in the cinema took it as a signal to go for walkies and it all kicked off.

Definitely some strong choices, but not *quite* as insane as I was hoping for.
Per an email Defector got, apparently Jim Steinman's house is still on the market after his 2021 death, originally at $10 million, now down to either $3 million with all his stuff or $1.5 million without. In viewing the relevant site's photos, there's a lot going on.

WTAF is Louis Mosley of Palantir doing on Laura Kuenssberg? Why is an executive of this predatory big data firm, owned & run by far-right fanatics & central to the genocidal machinery of the Israeli state, given privileged airtime on the BBC's flagship politics show?

This would be like when Scotland claimed to be world champions after beating England in their first match after the 1966 final win against Germany.
I swear, I almost posted that this is where things were headed a few days ago to timestamp it, but somehow neglected to.
So pathetically predictable.

The last family in the Palestinian village of Yanoun left their home last week, joining a growing list of communities that have been erased from existence through the establishment of Israeli "shepherding outposts" in their place.

WH sources say Venezuela's opposition leader committed the "ultimate sin": She accepted the Nobel Peace prize.
“If she had turned it down and said, ‘I can’t accept it because it’s Donald Trump’s,’ she’d be the president of Venezuela today,” one said.

There's a global solar energy revolution happening led by China and it should have been one of the biggest stories of 2025.
While the US is committing to a suicide pact with fossil fuels, the rest of the world is leapfrogging into cheap nearly limitless energy.

Well done to the US for heroically deterring Russia and China from considering regime change abroad by doing it themselves and suffering absolutely no consequences whatsoever up to and including having their allies fall short of actually criticizing them for it.
