🎶 Part-catchy pop, part-botulism
But let's go sick with old-school TISM, TISM
Everything is shit, except for TISM who are shit
Reforming after so long, yeah, I know it sucks
But Good Things offered ten million bucks
I feel like Kerry fuckin' Packer
That's more than the Optus hacker
Erectile dysfunction is a given
But let's do bed with old-school TISM 🎶

But Israel is investigating, so it's all good.
“There’s a saying here: ‘The dignity of the dead is in burial.’ When someone is killed, there should be immediate burial. It brings some small relief to the heart. But until now, we’ve received neither the body nor the right to do anything,” said Salem.

Iran demands US compensation for war damage before any talks
Iran will not return to nuclear negotiations unless the United States agrees to provide compensation for damages sustained during last month’s war, Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi told the Financial Times.
"They should explain why they attacked us in the middle of... negotiations, and they have to ensure that they are not going to repeat that," Araghchi said in an interview published on Thursday.
The official added that the US must take responsibility for striking Iran during ongoing diplomatic exchanges and that talks cannot resume without financial redress.

Sincere people in the US are saying 'if you didn't vote for Harris, you're responsible for #Trump'. I'm not in the US, of course. But I reject this. On both sides of the Atlantic, politics is so corrupted that it matters very little who you vote for. Your only choices are between different kinds of supine, corrupt, incompetence. An essay I wrote a year ago explains why.

The Triumph of the Mediocracy

@gilesgoat @BLTpizza @smallcircles Well, yes. If we carry on with capitalist liberal representative democracies, we are indeed doomed. These juggernauts cannot be turned around.
Which is why it's time to move to the politics of our neighbourhoods and communities, and the streets.
💯 this. I am looking myself into analogous approaches online, tailored to grassroots movements and their empowerment. This at coding.social

Pourquoi sommes-nous condamnés à l’impuissance, condamnés à pleurer sans fin au son de «plus jamais ça» larmoyants et de jérémiades hypocrites? Parce-que jamais nous n’arrachons le mal à la racine «hinc et nunc» (ici et maintenant).
