NEW: Multiple reports of Russian missiles pouring into Ukraine tonight, targeting civilians. The US has shut off the intelligence Ukraine needs to protect itself. This hotel in the southern city of Kryvyi Rih took a direct hit. Trump has the blood on his hands of every Ukrainian casualty tonight.

Israeli soldiers murdered these medical workers, buried them in a mass grave, libelled them as terrorists and then lied about it. One of the ambulance crews' last words were: "I only chose this path because I wanted to help people." www.bbc.co.uk/news/videos/...

Hold tight Los Angeles. You fucking heroes.

We’re waiting, JD.

Anti-genocide protests happening across Israel today. In Jerusalem Israeli protestors held up images of Palestinian children murdered in Israel’s ongoing genocide campaign in Gaza. (🎥 arixegal) #3E #EndImpunity #FreePalestine

*SPOILER ALERT* According to my daughter, Toy Story 5 will include a new character, Knifey. She also has an idea for Toy Story 6 which I'm not allowed to reveal.

Death Cab For Cutie perform "I Will Possess Your Heart" on Kimmel (2008)

I love Ploughman's Wood. I used to run around there all the time. A trip from my home in Sherwood over Mapperley top, along the Lambley Dumble, round Ploughman's and back was roughly a half marathon distance. Great race training.

Voters in next week’s Peterborough local elections have an unusual choice at the ballot box. Despite repeated public exposure and damning evidence of sexual misconduct, undercover spycop and one time infiltratror of the HSA, Andy Coles is running for councillor www.huntsabs.org.uk/hauled-over-...

This is an image of 100,000 people, now double and add 30,000 That's how many the Tories killed. A conservative estimate. Irony intended.

Here's a new Wordings for Easter! It's a poem jlukeroberts.substack.com/p/wordings-t...

From this angle, you can truly appreciate how one tiny bollard can stop the enormous and truly gross Cyber Truck. What a magnificent sight! #WorldBollardAssociation

Happy Easter

For anyone in or near Nottingham, UK today, there's another #TeslaTakedown protest from 11.00am at the Tesla dealership in Loughborough Road, West Bridgford. Everyone's welcome. Please RP.

“Sickening and heartbreaking” Someone who was at the Marge Greene town hall where folks who dissented were arrested/targeted/tased by police — who has voted for both parties — writes about what she saw 👇🏽

Harvard has set an example for other higher-ed institutions - rejecting an unlawful and ham-handed attempt to stifle academic freedom, while taking steps to make sure students can benefit from an environment of intellectual inquiry, rigorous debate and mutual respect. Let’s hope others follow suit.

New York Fucking City. A full mile of people filled to the brim. Fascism is going to lose.

Tesla sales are tanking. Let's keep the pressure on and make this the most successful consumer boycott in history, people: electrek.co/2025/04/02/t... #TeslaTakedown #LFG

Before I was first elected in 2019, I pledged to take a worker’s wage and share the remainder after tax with my community. I obviously donate any MPs’ pay rises as part of this. My first donation this year is £4000 to two local disabled people’s organisations linked below:

I may be tired and a little hoarse, but as I said again and again on the Senate floor, this is a moment where we cannot afford to be silent, when we must speak up.

Turns out Le Pen is not mightier than the fraud.

“Now’s the moment to speak honestly about Brexit’s colossal harm. Most know it already. Even 54% of Britons who voted leave …say they would accept free movement for UK & EU citizens in exchange for single market access” Spot on ⁦‪@pollytoynbee‬⁩ Labour urgently needs to start making the case 👇

lmao getting fact checked irl

If you release balloons/lanterns for any reason, it's not justifiable and you're a wanker. You may dearly miss your loved one, but now you're going to kill live stock and damage the environment. Slow clap.

I took my 4 year old swimming but she really didn't want to practise. The only way I could get her to swim a length was to play 'The Great Egg Race' where we both pretended to be sperm hurrying to fertilise an egg at the other end of the pool. Follow me for more parenting tips.

Join Andrea Jenkyns on her march against solar panels today! Just a note team. Steer clear of the ones with a plaque reading: “This solar panel represents the 16,120 solar panels that provide solar electricity directly to Wakefield Manufacturing Site. Opened by Andrea Jenkyns MP 8 September 2017”

A 10-year-old U.S. citizen girl recovering from brain cancer, was detained at an immigration checkpoint while heading to an emergency medical checkup and promptly deported. Thanks to Trump and Musk. www.nbcnews.com/news/latino/...

Becky Burke of Book Island (a picture book publisher in the UK founded by my fellow Tokarczuk translator Greet Pauwelijn) was "detained" by ICE at the Canadian border on 2/28. Her father asked that her story be shared in case someone can help her. He writes:

He nails it.

This is what patriotism looks like. Chris Kluwe, a former NFL player was arrested after speaking out against plans to install a MAGA plaque at a Southern California library. What a legend. The irony is that it’s unlikely a MAGA supporter has ever set foot in a library.
