It's insane that the guardian journos were walking around the green conference all weekend and seemed to be unable to interview any of the 1000+ people on why they voted for the zionism is racism motion? But have posted several columns from people in + out of the party who oppose it

Something AI is responsible for that doesn't get enough talk:

How, when it scrapes a website to illegally steal everything on it, it uses up a ton of its bandwidth allotment, crashing it or racking up massive fees for site owners.
Yet again, the Game UI Database is being scraped to the point that it's getting knocked offline. Even Cloudflare's "I'm under attack" mode isn't working.
I just wanted to create a resource for real designers. I'm getting so fucking sick of this.

icymi! - I’m happy to say even over 12 hours after release I’m not filled with a deep resentment and loathing over this one, which means it’s pretty good!

also I’m really sorry to say that I’ve really been fuckin w/Lanterns. I started it contemporaneously with Reacher (mostly wanted to see one of the books I’ve read on-screen), and was struggling to engage with Reacher at all because everything it did was being pissed on by Lanterns.

Polanski is one thing but why John Swinney has not brought the full force of Police Scotland to bear on the far-right gangs trying to burn down houses in Glasgow and then parading the suspects on TV in cuffs whilst saying how much Andy Burnham can learn from the Scottish Government is beyond me
I think the most appalling part of this is that even the liberal/left opposition seems genuinely incapable of a hard hitting attack on the government here
If I'm Zack Polanski, I'm taking the UK Government deserting RNLI to hordes of fash and plastering it on every leaflet and billboard

and also, while I’m here: I’ve done two radio shows in the last week, one a 2 hour party mix for Glasgow Uni’s freshers week. subcity.org/show/wherefo... I loved doing it and I’d love if you loved listening to it

I had to delete Bluesky off my phone after I read a post that was like: “Cute. Apple has launched a new phone. Well, I won’t be touching it with a bargepole!”. Man what are you posting that for.

U need to talk about this directly with people who say that these fascists have “legitimate concerns”, u need to bring this up to make it absolutely crystal clear that this isn’t happening in a vacuum

Why exactly did they need so much manpower for notting hill?
The response of the police on Saturday was probably explicable because of manpower. They didn't have the numbers to make arrests in Dover, the weekend after Notting Hill and during the football.

But what is going on here?

It may feel good to poke fun at them, but every one of those fash has 30+ pounds on me, they’re better organised than we are, more mobile, have a clear vision, better funded, and are willing to do things, while I’ve screamed myself hoarse to get a milling crowd of leftists to physically back me up

Coming down harder than ever on the side of 'if you interview with the times or the telegraph and people misinterpret the headline, you deserve a public furore' than ever. Like read more about the proclaimers on THE TIMES website to give nuance to their response to the pro fascist newspaper on

If the police & security services didn't see this coming, it was a massive intelligence failure.
If they did, but still gave the impression of being caught on the hop, it's something worse.
