Yeah, god forbid people of different races to your own be allowed to have a story centred on their experience.

This kind of politics is dead. Grandstanding speeches that are disconnected from reality are part of the reason we're in this mess.

Change is coming from the ground up one way or another, and that's where political leaders need to be. Even Farage knows this, unfortunately.

Greens are the only serious option at this stage for anyone even remotely interested in actual democratic socialism.

Some people with blue eyes like bananas. Therefore all people with blue eyes like bananas.

Congratulations on your completely broken thinking.

Went to a friend's birthday over the weekend, and it was amazing!! Basically a massive jam session full of truly gifted people. Here's a snippet of an impromptu bass solo.

Reform will probably win at the next election.

No one is interested in actually addressing the cause of these problems (ridiculous wealth disparity), and the media are already setting us up for a Farage government.

Hope I'm wrong, but doubt anything Starmer does will change that.

It's honestly less hassle for them to just sell the phone and your data than cash out 'future of finance' crapto.

Carl Sagan called it decades ago. Hopefully there's a way out.

Had my first DJ gig The Lighthouse in Deal on Saturday. Brought my bass too, why not.

Here's some jamming over over Dilla's 'Life'. Love this track (excuse the crowd noise πŸ˜„).
