21 years ago, British journalist Tom Hurndall died after spending 9 months in a coma.
Tom was carrying a Palestinian child out of range of Israeli army gunfire when he was shot in the head.
We will never forget him, nor his vision of a free and independent Palestine.

Sam Altman thinks RAM sitting in personal computers is a waste when it could be put to better use in data centers.
Weird. I was just thinking that all those billions sitting in billionaires’ bank accounts could be put to much better use in our communities.

May be the first time in history a Zionist bombed and no children were killed.

Your computer will be some kind of dumb terminal incapable of running anything more demanding than Notepad, and you'll need to connect to a data centre to get anything done under this glorious future envisaged by the tech bros.

You were Deputy Prime Minister during three of those governments.
You spent a substantial period as *Acting* Prime Minister during one!

It appears the Russian Storm-1516 narrative laundering campaign has finally come for the U.S. midterms.
Yesterday they placed a false story on X saying James Talarico sexually assaulted one of his students in 2012.
This follows the Russian playbook. Let me show you how.

🚨 10:00 AM ET: A 15-MINUTE BATTLE FOR THE ENTIRE INTERNET BEGINS.
Today, a critical zero-day vulnerability (CVSS 9.2) in PHP—the backbone running nearly 80% of the web—goes public at 10:00 AM ET / 7:00 AM PT.
Forget the technical jargon. Here is what actually happens:
The second the patch drops, hackers will use AI to reverse-engineer the fix in seconds and unleash automated exploits worldwide within 15 minutes.
This is not just a problem for developers.
When e-commerce sites, apps, and platforms collapse, your leaked home address, passwords, and credit card numbers flood the dark web.
⚔️ The brutal reality today:
Engineering teams deploying patches in minutes vs. Oblivious companies gutted before lunchtime.
🛡 3 things you must do to protect yourself right now:
1. Turn on Two-Factor Authentication (2FA) across all critical accounts.
2. Stop password reuse immediately.
3. Beware of fake "emergency password reset" phishing emails flooding inboxes today.
Cyber warfare changes forever this morning.

Imagine if in 1943 FDR had decided that the US would stop helping Britain and instead would side with the Third Reich. That's a bit like what President Trump is now doing by cozying up to Russia as it tries to destroy Ukraine. Utterly shameful. A humiliating moment for the US.

"The reason I keep bringing up the Palestinians throwing rocks to protect Heidi is because, I mean, I can’t emphasize enough how much these young men are . . . Yesterday, they put their lives on the line. There were soldiers there, and soldiers will shoot when somebody is throwing rocks. These young men put their lives on the line to protect a sixty-three-year-old Jewish American journalist. And, I mean, these guys are heroes. If they were not doing that, so many villages would’ve been overtaken. They are literally the only defense. [On Saturday] I was in a village called Jalud, and the exact same thing happened. We got attacked by settlers, and it was these young men, whom we call the shabab, who fought them back with rocks. And the reason I just want to put a fine point on this is because, for me, just in terms of where things are going with Israel-Palestine politically, I think that a sort of discursive shift in how we talk about Palestinians’ right to defend themselves needs to happen." @infinite_jaz to @IChotiner
Absolute legend. Of course he did not return with 52 dogs and was apparently a little chubbier.....
On this day in 1911, Roald Amundsen and four companions left the Bay of Whales to begin their historic journey to the South Pole.
With 52 Greenland dogs, four sledges and meticulous planning, they set out across Antarctica's frozen wilderness. Less than two months later, they became the first humans to reach 90° South. More at antarcticreport.com

“The Voice of Hind Rajab” is heartbreaking story of a small girl trapped in a car with dead family members killed by 🇮🇱army in #Gaza. Eventually she & 2 ambulance personnel sent to rescue her are killed too. Hind spoke to #RedCrescent for hours: theguardian.com/film/2025/se… #HindRajab

If Putin stops fighting, the war ends. If Zelensky stops fighting then his country will be occupied, leaders murdered, language banned, businesses stolen, children kidnapped. That's what happens in Russian-occupied Ukraine.
Simon's always a great and thoughtful read.
My Hopetown post on Substack this wknd features gangs + politicians incl Rob Muldoon, Max Harris, pay equity + Chloe Swarbrick: “That tells you everything that you need to know. This is not so much a cost-of-living crisis as it is a cost-of-greed crisis”
