Love this. I've degoogled to a considerable extent, but I'm only about halfway out of its clutches. Signed up to see if this initiative can help extricate me from the rest. degoogle.tech

A fascinating and enraging scandal. What the article neglects to mention is that it’s normally very difficult to obtain Malaysian citizenship - even for people with Malaysian mothers. But here ‘discretion’ was gleefully used, while the government pretends that the system is fair and reasonable

Mm-hmm and then we have a reference to "Gaza's Hamas-run health ministry", to encourage some doubt over whether Israel is starving people to death

"Because you rejected cookies, lower-quality ads may be displayed" oh my god what?? I'm sorry I'm sorry I didn't realise what I was doing

A great read from @edgeofsports.bsky.social on right-wing US attempts to infiltrate Ireland through sport www.thenation.com/article/soci...

That would be the fault of the murderous state that frames people’s attempts to stay alive as “frivolous” and has people like you pushing its propaganda. Don’t pretend you give a damn about his or his family’s suffering, you’re not convincing.

Datch died, and people loved him. @kirstenhan.com describes the final wait, the final cruelty, and his mother finally being able to touch her son again, after so many years, after Singapore killed him.

Truly nothing like it. I loved Tyres so much for his authentic NI representation

I had a friend in Melbourne who had a huge pigeon tattoo on his chest. It was beautiful

This book looks like a delight. Al got into birdwatching lately so I have been pushing pro-pigeon propaganda

Delhi police have arrested 30+ African refugees, mostly from Somalia and Sudan. Accounts of racial targeting, refusal to accept UNHCR cards, detention in inhumane conditions m.thewire.in/article/righ...

Many in the media are “unprepared […] in dealing with the terminally online”, while doing the journalistic equivalent of scrambling to yell “FIRST!!11!” under a celebrity’s brand-new Instagram post.

Extremely poor show: NEXT reports record profits, approves multimillion-pound executive bonuses, and fires its only unionised garment workers in Sri Lanka. There's a protest message you can click to send here: www.labourstartcampaigns.net/show_campaig...

This is a great look at why people in the island nation of Malta feel largely disconnected from the migrant deaths that take place in surrounding waters blogs.law.ox.ac.uk/border-crimi...

A beautiful start to my day thank you

Oh I have to check out this album! First time I went to see them I didn’t get in because it was a small Belfast venue and I was underage. I solved that the next year by landing myself on the guest list so I could review the gig.

This one, right? www.jezebel.com/we-paid-some...

In a rare effort to keep up with US developments, I just looked up Charlie Kirk on Wikipedia, and wow, what a waste of a life. He had 31 years to do something worthwhile with it but he failed. So sad.

I spent years yelling about the uselessness of Malaysian government websites but now I'm wondering if Malaysia and Malta have been exchanging information on how to ruin the user experience

Noooo (but I always appreciate a Clue reference)

El regreso de la queeee? Anyway 😢

Death to Smoochy

Scottish Councils demanding that trans children out themselves to their classmates is obviously institutional transphobic abuse, and schools should absolutely refuse to comply. The obsession with policing children's bodies is disturbing.
