This piece to camera went so far off the rails so quickly. Filming in Niddrie on bonfire night… cameo by Police Scotland’s finest.

This is how I engage with elections.
if you don't enjoy the schadenfreude of seeing republicans sobbing and screaming and freaking out you have no heart. if you think the democrats are going to actually do anything you have no brain.

This is categorically a very good take but not in a fraction of the way she thinks it is
“Does Israel have the right to exist?” is the new “What is a woman?”

Mohammad was for my generation who Hind Rajab is to today's youth. We watched him die, live. We promised to never forget him, never stop fighting for justice, and never stop demanding freedom, safety, and dignity for all Palestinian children. And here we are, promising again
September 30, 2000. Your daily reminder of what Palestinians have endured for decades.

someone from the same frat gives you a job after you graduate and you can use that to donate money to the university. if the university does anything about the rampant torture and rape the the former frat members stop giving money. Basically a white collar street gang.
as a non american genuinely what does a frat contribute to university other than rape

It IS time and I can't wait. But as far as I can find there is only one single showing in the whole of Scotland. I'm rallying people to go but it's a shame there aren't more.
UK, Ireland, Netherlands, Germany, Brazil, Australia- I Love Boosters will be in your cinemas in October/November. It is time.

They admit it's "yet to deliver justice for those affected" whilst also claiming "It’s only right that we ask those affected themselves about the future of the inquiry" They asked, we answered, they locked down the building rather than take in the responses of #spycops survivors

In 1946, Welles spent five weeks on his radio show bringing attention to the beating and blinding of a Black WWII veteran by police. He ended the first episode “You're going to be uncovered… I will find means to remove from you all refuge, Officer X. You can't get rid of me.”
Been going back to the old Orson Welles interviews and I love this part with BBC where they ask him what he would do if a millionaire gave him all the money he wanted, and he immediately started talking about police violence

*Struggles to build a simple bench* "Well at least I'm not African" White identity politics in summary
Found this schematic on google and just loosely copied it. (Forgot to account for the overhang of the table, whoops) Even with the imperfections, Africans could never. And no i am not done yet, needs sanded and painted.

He should have wrote a handwritten apology in our member's copy of Public Order Law by Richard Card, which he stole during hearings for Austin Saxby vs Commissioner of Police for the Metropolis at the Royal Courts of Justice, & has yet to return, when he was still a pretend hrl.
NEW: Am told Keir Starmer wrote handwritten notes for every single member of No 10 staff - in the hundreds - thanking them for their public service

Lots of Boomers seem to be remembering the summer of 1976 with rose tinted spectacles, & think that they ‘just got in with it’ Let’s have a look at what the newspapers of the day had to say in 1976…. 🧵

"why don't they go just to the park?" Because you'd call the police and demand summary executions if you detected anyone under 40 in a public place without just cause

A bit concerned by the historical optics as Haiti, home of a pivotal revolution which overthrew slavery, face Scotland, a nation whose economic history was transformed by trade and commerce linked to Caribbean plantations.

I ran a script to replace every instance of 'whale' in Moby Dick with the word 'lesbian', and I have to tell you, Captain Ahab does not come out of it well
Replying to @ZackPolanski
Replace "billionaire" with "Jewish" in all Polanski's polemic and propaganda, and his antisemitism becomes clear. It's all just Zackshit.

They moan about two tier policing. But if this was a block this size on its way to smash up an arms factory and not people, the cops would be cracking skulls.
Hundreds of people gathered in Glasgow, many of them masked men, to call for an 'end to mass immigration' following a stabbing attack in Belfast

Younger people who are presumably the most exposed to abs familiar with generative AI are also the most against it. The last assumption tends to be the opposite in pressure to be seen as ‘relevant’ by including AI in teaching and assessment.
‘Backrooms’ director Kane Parsons has criticised AI as “cultural rot” and said if he could snap his fingers and make generative AI disappear forever, he would - but would the British public? Would: 42% Would not: 36% Link in replies
