It's the anniversary of the 1936 London International Surrealist Exhibition. Dali nearly suffocated in a diving suit, Dylan Thomas carried around a cup of boiled string asking people if they'd like it weak or strong, and Scottish performance artist Sheila Legge did this. More of this sort of thing.

Idk man but when the administration that tried to reject humanitarian aid for Los Angeles when it was burning tries to justify their illegal military occupation by saying they aren’t going to let LA burn it kinda sounds like bullshit

It’s great to see investment in the NHS, social housing, and free school meals. But it makes no sense to cut disability benefits at the same time. Making disabled people sicker and poorer will only increase pressure on the NHS, push them out of independent homes, and deprive their children.

I have no problem with police showing up to a protest but their use of violence is undermining their legitimacy :/

Watching nearly every political party in the UK chase the same 20% of the worst people in the country, ignoring the other 80%, just to please the papers. Nothing will change in the UK until the papers are taken in hand. Not all the media, just the papers. The rest will flow from there.

Good news for the people who are now getting the payments, but what an absolute waste of time, not to mention worry on the part of the people who'd lost it. The outcome? Another U-turn which eats even further into the government's credibility www.theguardian.com/society/2025...

if Thunberg is brave enough to repeatedly put herself directly in harm’s way, then journalists can be brave enough to say that a civilian vessel was illegally seized in international waters, and its crew abducted

Could this be any more obviously politically motivated? And we allegedly have a human rights lawyer as a prime minister. Pathetic. #freeWilliamPlastow www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2025...

Israeli forces have destroyed Gaza’s only specialised dialysis facility, Al Jazeera reports. The bombing and blockade have long left disabled people without life-sustaining medication and equipment whilst disabling tens of thousands more. Thinking of every disabled and chronically ill Palestinian.

If white people across the country started singing “Free Palestine” to the tune of “Sweet Caroline” when a little drunk this summer at their white people bars in their little polos and $70 flip flops I think the worst “journalists” in the world would actually implode
