I want you to watch this videoclip that I sampled from a Babylon 5 episode (from 1997). It perfectly explains what happened and still happens in America right now. This is all known. for almost a century we knew. But still, we let it happen... again:

When I used to DJ (a hobby I am ready to get back into) I loved blending 2 (or sometimes 3 or 4, if I had the decks) songs together to create a new sound.
DJing, to me, is more than playing one song after the other, it's about creating something new that will never be heard again.

I had hundreds of Orks. Still do 🤣
In the years since I've added hundreds of tanks, copters, planes, drednaughts, Kans, stompy stompas, and just a few Gargants 😍
Still like to play the last iteration, Epic Armageddon.

Brexit Bin 🇪🇺 🇬🇧 🇩🇪 @brexitbin.bsky.social · Oct 10

1. The European Convention on Human Rights (ECHR) is the ethical DNA of modern Europe.
2. It was created after WW2 as a safeguard against the types of crimes committed by the Nazis.
3. Leaving the ECHR would leave you defenceless against the criminal whims of whatever politicians are in power.

Dad’s books are full of empathy, common sense, and a healthy suspicion of the powerful. But at its heart his work is also about how systems keep people poor while pretending it’s their own fault. So I hope Kemi’s taking notes as well as reading the jokes.

Me on Saturday mornings, when I was 6, would be sitting in front of the TV intensly watching cartoons.
My son, 6, on Saturday mornings is intensely watching others play Minecraft.
