I still think the Woodstock ‘99 doc is our most politically explanatory film. Young white men, unhappy that women are on television, and unaware that they themselves are locked in an anarchocapitalist prison, generate sociality by stewing in their own filth and eventually burning down everything.

“This is bad, full stop. It creates a class of person who are forever excluded from civic life no matter how long they live here. It’s also a clear breach of the refugee convention.” Damn straigt, @colinyeo.bsky.social www.theguardian.com/politics/202...

Your imposter syndrome should have died laughing at this point. You're doing great. You didn't author a bill to rename Greenland "Red, White, and Blueland." You can do anything.

🚨 NEW: A Russia-linked Telegram network is inciting terror and hate crimes in the UK. Already responsible for attacks on UK mosques, the network appears to be based in Russia - and it's gunning for violence on British streets. New from me & @hopenothate.org.uk hopenothate.org.uk/2025/02/10/e...

🎶 Bad Bunny's latest album has been both a critical and commercial triumph. Dr Andrew Green, Lecturer in the Music of Central and South America, suggests it resonates deeply by connecting with Puerto Rican traditions amidst growing discontent with the United States ⬇️ #BadBunny #DtMF #PuertoRico

Blimey. The very notion that even while paying some of the highest tuition fees of any public HE system, domestic students might be considered by some institutions as an expense, tells of an incredible level of systemic incompetence and short-sightedness going to the very top

The tariffs are mad; but what’s equally mad is that they somehow come as a surprise, when Trump has campaigned non-stop on this and controls all branches of government Precious time has been lost, but it’s not too late for countries to mount an effective response 1/x

Based on 32M tweets from parliamentarians in 26 countries over 6 years, reaserchers confirmed that "radical-right populism is the strongest determinant for the propensity to spread misinformation. Populism, left-wing populism, and right-wing politics are not linked to the spread of misinformation."

Pin this, save it, we’ll need it. “When a prison camp opens in your town…when a DREAMer is disappeared from your classroom…when the President destroys what’s left of the Constitution…They will all say they didn’t know this was coming. And I want the American people to know that they did.” AOC 🔥🎯

If you think that you have to fight tooth and nail to get arts funding sometimes, spare a thought for the Cuban National Ballet, who literally wrote to Fidel Castro to ask for funding in the 1950s while he was a guerrilla fighter hiding in the mountains

This picture of a man in a Spongebob Squarepants costume next to a HTS fighter will forever be remembered as the historic image of the Syrian Revolution. It will appear on book covers. There will be murals of it. Syrian space rovers will carry it with them as they search for alien life

What if I told you that the only reason I am bald is that I’m afraid of a Ratatouille situation? What if I told you that I’d have so much hair if not for the fear of a rat using me like a puppet? These are modes of control, Neo. This is how they manipulate us. Ratatouilles, Neo. Rats that pull hair.

It's not just about Twitter. The entirety of corporate-owned social media makes money out of their websites being toxic and depressing places. Digital commons can be life-affirming and fun - but not if they're taken over by private companies.
