Owing to the overwhelming demand for tickets - and the runaway success of Cardiacs’ long awaited new album ‘LSD’ - the unwavering benevolence of THE ALPHABET BUSINESS CONCERN has deemed it appropriate at this time to ‘upgrade’ TWO of the venues on the forthcoming jaunt up country, to larger capacity shows, so as to allow YOU to avail yourself of this generous opportunity of extra tickets should you have missed out on in the rush.
Manchester’s performance will now take place at the princely ‘Albert Hall’.
Glasgow’s show will now take place at Queen Margaret Union, hereafter known as the QMU.
There will be NO change to the London venue.
Your loyalty demands swift action on this arrangement as they are sure to sell quickly and nobody loves a sluggard or stop-a-bed do they?
PLEASE NOTE
There will be NO support slots at these shows.
All previously purchased tickets remain valid.
with respect
the ABC

The great Dr Jane Goodall, ethologist and campaigner for great apes and much else, has died at the age of 91.

She loved this _Far Side_ cartoon, and wrote a forward for a later Gary Larson collection.

De AIVD gaf vorig jaar aan dat dit EU-voorstel voor #chatcontrol gevaarlijk is voor de digitale veiligheid. Dat inzicht is niet veranderd. Het scannen past ook niet hij onze fundamentele rechten en diverse wetgeving zoals Cbw (en AVG). Onze algehele security online staat op het spel en het […]

Weer de valse tegenstelling van security vs privacy:

"Het scannen of strenger toezien op versleutelde chats zoals in Snapchat, is omstreden vanwege het recht op privacy, wat ook voor kinderen geldt."

Scannen van onze communicatie mag om veel redenen niet en het zou onze online security juist […]

These guys believe men are the default and so anything that isn't about men is a deviation from the norm. It's a version of their peers who get mad at superhero movies with female leads. Masculinity is seen as "neutral," while femininity is seen as "political."

Im not the sharpest tool in the toolbox... but "gender neutral" and in the same breath "male standard" kinda contradict each other no?

Hegseth is an unqualified idiot.

Despite everything I still have fundamental faith in the American people turning this around and making things better.

Danish Minister of Justice says no one has the right to communicate in a way that cannot be overheard, recorded, and understood by the police (and other snoops):

@jap Uiteraard heb je helemaal gelijk, maar dat helpt niet of nauwelijks. Een andere DNS-provider gebruiken (of het zelf doen) maakt de zaak vaak alleen maar nóg complexer en foutgevoeliger.

@bert_hubert Klant van registrar hier. Als je wat haat kunt overbrengen over het feit dat je bij een wijziging van registrar altijd zo zit te klooien om de zone data over te krijgen, dan graag. Dat zou verdorie best automatisch moeten kunnen, of op zijn minst d.m.v. export/import of zone […]

Over vorige post ^^, ik schrijf hele pagina's vol over wat er allemaal mis gaat bij onze overheid, maar ik ben steeds zo onder de indruk hoe men in gesprek treedt met critici & kennis neemt van de zorgen. En vaak ook uitlegt hoe het nou komt. Keer op keer weer blij mee. Kunnen ze in andere […]

The interests of suspects in not having a confession beaten out of them is ultimately an interest in evading the law, which is not an especially weighty interest.

I’m still trying to wrap my mind around Kavanaugh actually writing this, as if the Fourth Amendment only protects people who have not done anything illegal. This is so foundationally wrong that it’s hard to know where to start.
In any event, the balance of harms and equities in this
case tips in favor of the Government.
The interests of individuals who are illegally in the country in avoiding being stopped by law enforcement for questioning is ultimately an interest in evading the law. That is not an
especially weighty legal interest.

Capsule Review: If you have never seen "This is Spinal Tap", watch that first. Partly, because if you didn't like it, you won't like the sequel. But mostly because the sequel really requires you to have seen the original to appreciate it.

With that said, Spinal Tap 2 is *joyful*, and absolutely […]

Political violence disproportionately hurts people with less power, not people with more power. Political violence will disproportionately hurt people of color and women and LGBTQ people. It’s not fair, but that’s the way it works. Celebrating political violence means at best indifference to that.

Political violence is bad. It usually begets more political violence.

Celebrating political violence is bad. It usually encourages more political violence, against various targets.

Campus shootings are bad. They make everyone on campus less safe.

It's bad that what I wrote here is controversial.
