Happy birthday to Betty Boo. Here's a reminder of the time she rapped with Public Enemy in the McDonalds at Shepherd's Bush back in 1987 (look out for the unimpressed manager!)

Claude Sonnet 4.5 describes the image as: "This image shows an elaborate theatrical or science fiction costume featuring striking otherworldly makeup and design. The character wears an iridescent costume with shimmering shoulder pieces in blue and green tones that catch the light dramatically. The garment appears to be a white or silver tunic with decorative fastenings down the front. The makeup is highly stylized with bold black and white face paint creating dramatic geometric patterns across the face, complemented by distinctive red accents positioned above the eyebrows. A tall, pale headdress or hair piece extends upward, adding to the alien or fantasy appearance. The costume design suggests this is from a science fiction television production, likely from the 1980s or 1990s based on the image quality and aesthetic" Blakes7Bot, version 4.0.44.

Young Woman Being Harassed by a Man
This is Judith Leyster's amazing 1631 painting βYoung Woman Being Harassed by a Manβ.
She was well known in her day but SURPRISE! her works were later misattributed either to Frans Hals, her local contemporary, or her husband, Jan Miense Molenaer.

Press Association comment from Quakers in Britain This evening, for the second time in a year, the Metropolitan Police raided a Quaker Meeting House and arrested a number of young nonviolent activists who were meeting there on the grounds that they were conspiring to commit a criminal act. The room in Westminster Quaker Meeting House was let to Take Back Power to hold nonviolent direct action training. Quakers support the principle of nonviolent direct action, which aims to protest without harming people. Oliver Robertson, head of witness and worship for Quakers in Britain, said: βFor Quakers, faith and action are inseparable. Peaceful protest, prayer and nonviolent action are integral parts of many Quakers' religious life. βWhilst we take the planning of criminal acts very seriously, we believe that this incident is a deliberate targeting of committed young people who want to make our country a more equitable place. This raid is part of a systematic stifling of dissent. βThat this is the second time in a year that the police have raided our meeting house dramatically illuminates the broader trend in the UK of cracking down on those who disagree with the government. The right to protest is fundamental to our democracy. It's a key part of how people make their voices heard between elections.β
Statement from @quaker.org.uk about tonight's police raid on Westminster Meeting House. Guys, I don't think they're buying the Met's line about it all being a cover for plotting "mass shoplifting"
You won't hear much about this result in the media

Iran: look, it's simple. We literally just paint the silhouette of a plane on the ground. We literally just nail together some boxes in the shape of a tank. We literally just pull looney tunes shit. Their AI will make them spend $100 million to destroy $5 of arts and crafts.
