Today marks nine years since Jo Cox was assassinated by a far-right extremist, a terrible loss to those who knew and loved her and to politics. Zero lessons were learned though and the far-right continues to be pandered to. With more political assassinations in the US it all feels too familiar.

It feels like we should be doing something else with our time as a species than finding new ways to bomb and oppress each other. I know we've had those going for a long time, but maybe we should try and switch them up for something less awful and more effective in achieving anything.

I said this when Trump was promoting Teslas from the White House lawn, and I'll reiterate it now that he's got his stupid parade, it looks pathetic and humiliating and embarrassing. What a joke.

It's a real problem that as an English-speaking nation we get most of our ideas from the US and the UK because they haven't been sending their best recently

So, the next few posts are going to be showing off what I had as my exhibits at the fabulous RetroFest 2025. I HAVE to start with my awesome Aquarius II. An extremely rare beast, sporting the first.. and only game written for this software-less gem. Note the developer 😉😎👍

OK folks, really need your help. Trans Pride NI is getting zero funding, nothing from the council or Belfast Pride and if they don't hit £5k, it won't happen. They're over £2k now. Can we get this to target? Please share. Thank you ❤️🏳️‍⚧️

Céad Míle Fáilte Romhat - Welcome!!! "I know that efforts are being made to spread this sort of poisonous ideology from the UK to Ireland. But the impression I get is that this type of attitude just won’t be welcome in Ireland. Ireland is a very different country.” archive.is/PVxUB #SpeirGorm

Nice warm day but 90 degrees in the workshop, let’s take the repair outside! This is a Sharp MZ80K expansion unit which came with a dual floppy drive unit. It’s best described as ‘a little foxed’ though it’s possibly been badgered too. I was going to leave it bent as I already have one, but… 😀

Mid & East Antrim will hold their first ever Pride parade this year in Ballymena on 28 June. M&EA are going to need a lot of us to show up for reasons that should be obvious given what's happening in the town atm. Numerous counter-protests have already been registered. This is what Pride is about

This is how. Greta Thunberg spits fire and gives you the only media training you may ever need.

In this era of vicious transphobia and a broader backlash against LGBTIQ rights, it’s lovely to see the pride flags waving in the sunshine along the Liffey - don’t say this very often but, well done DCC #speirgorm #pride2025

I hate the term "torture porn" because it comes off like a moralizing value judgment, like a regurgitated "video nasties" moral panic that never took off, implying that people who enjoy such media are getting off on the suffering. It's not torture porn, it's called Taskmaster and it's art.

Day 159 - #retrorandom - It was a happy day in 2020 when I eventually got one of the most stylish little computers ever made - the Alice 90. What does it have 90 of? No one is sure. Not kilobytes of memory, that's for sure (it has 32). But who's going to nitpick when you're this gorgeous?

Exactly. This is a dangerous proposal and will be used by so called "moralists" as a cudgel to beat minorities with.

Reminder that the BBC platformed a rapist in order to accuse trans women of forcing cis lesbians to have sex with them.

This guy's whole talk rubbed me the wrong way, like you're saying "I'm sick of playing Call of Duty every year" as if there isn't a thriving indie retro FPS scene? There's amazing FPS games coming out the wazoo, from some extremely talented developers, it's quite frankly never been a better time.
