Remnants of the British Black Panther’s Lost Legacy
Britain’s black power movement is at risk of being forgotten, say historians
The Cambridge academic Robin Bunce said: “There is a fundamental danger of erasing the very notion of a struggle at all. I’ve been researching this for four and a half years and there have been so many occasions when people have said to me: ‘There was no black struggle in Britain. You’re thinking of South Africa or America.’“
The narrative that feeds it is the one that Britain is the utopia of fair play. We have such a commitment to individual rights, we have such a commitment to common sense and decency that there is no systematic racism in Britain.”…
Bunce said it was not just politicians, but wider British society that would rather not dwell on the less palatable.
bat at hornets nest maybe but "there is no ethical consumption under capitalism" refers to low income communities needing to choose between survival vs being eco friendly. not you continuing to watch the harry potter movies

There's an open pit in the middle of our office plan that drops down into a bunch of very sharp spikes that kill you instantly. This is bad. People keep falling in there and dying. Someone put a sign up, the other day, all bright yellow so you can't miss it, that says "Beware!!! Spikes!!!"
The office immediately split into two factions over it. One says that if anyone falls in the spike pit it's their own fault for being so stupid and not watching where they're walking, so we should remove the sign. The other says that the sign is an insult, there shouldn't be a spike pit in our office at all, and having the sign up like that is just normalising the existence of the spike pit, so we should remove the sign.
We ended up removing the sign. Probably for the better. Still... for a while there it looked like it might have worked...
Nobody has ever been capable of writing a scathingly harsh and well formulated satire about the perils of modern capitalism, that doesn't just get immediately one-upped by some random food service worker talking about their actual week.
Hey folks, I'm afraid I need help again. I'll be posting actual content on this blog soon so that I can start properly monetizing my project without having to keep asking for help directly, but we're unfortunately still in a transitional state with regards to our lifestyle and don't have anything to fall back on. So I'm just desperately hoping that maybe someone here can help us.
We're an AuDHD queer trans couple, both FtM, and we've been rejected by both of our families. We've been surviving off the grace of friends, but they're struggling to keep us afloat right now. Which is a pity since Whispers of Wonderland is getting so close to getting properly released. But the universe doesn't like to follow my ideal schedule, heh.
We're staying in a hotel since we can't get a landlord to rent to us at the moment. We don't make anywhere near enough for them to be willing to take a chance on us. We're barely hanging on by a thread with the hotel as it is.
We are currently overdue to pay the hotel bill for today, and we still need $65 to just barely make it. I really hope something works out somehow, and quickly, or we're going to be in so much trouble. I realize that no one cares about my project at the moment since they don't know it yet, but I'm hoping that maybe people care enough about my husband to keep him alive, or at least that someone cares about giving underprivileged people the best chance of survival possible. I struggle with feelings of unworthiness and so have a hard time asking the wide world instead of just my friends, but I'll do it to protect my husband at any cost.
Here are some ways you can support us if you're so inclined:
Ko-Fi (Good for a one-time donation of any amount)
Patreon (Good for helping us to pull out of this over the longterm)
---
And of course, please share this around and signal boost it as much as you can! We really need the help as quickly as possible before we get in trouble with the hotel and then get kicked out with nowhere to go. Anything helps!
Thank you so much for even reading this far. I deeply appreciate that, and I hope to be able to simply entertain you all in the future instead of needing to ask for help like this. But I thank you all for your patience while I get things set up over here. I appreciate that more than you can imagine! ❤️
Do you have a specific body of water you would let kill you?
Pacific Ocean
Atlantic Ocean
Other ocean/sea (saltwater)
Specific lake you've been to
Specific lake you have NOT been to
Specific river you've been to
Specific river you've NOT been to
A little gal-pond/stream/creek etc.
Some other watery place
I don't have this kind of relationship with any body of water
This isn't about whether you think it's likely that you'll die in this body of water; it's about which body of water you would give the right to take you.
For example, for me it's Lake Michigan.

So to catch you up to speed
Luigi Mangione is an innocent man who has not been confirmed to have been involved in any crime.
We have police documents confirming he was not DNA tested or fingerprinted, and confirmation no usable DNA or fingerprints were recovered at the crime scene due to incomplete prints and immense DNA contamination of New Yorks streets.
No evidence has linked him to the crime.
No facial recognition has even remotely come close to identifying the cctv suspects face as that of Luigi. His own family and friends do not see a resemblance. Most people agree the features in the cctv do not match the very well documented features of Luigi Mangione.
Luigi Mangione has no history of violence nor with firearms. He is a vegan pacifist with no history of mental illness and an aversion to killing even bugs.
He is still only a SUSPECT and all involvement in any crimes are merely ALLEGED at this time. Alleged by the most corrupt police force in the entire nation; the NYPD who do more organized crime than they've ever stopped.
Luigi Mangione's attorneys confirmed they have been shown absolutely nothing that even places Luigi at the scene of the crime.
People have repeatedly tried to recreate the entire timeline of events and found it is not physically possible to do what was alleged in the time frame police gave. Especially dubious for Luigi Mangione to have done given his recent, crippling back injury.
Luigi Mangione in his own words has said police planted evidence on him and are not being honest about his arrest or what he had on him at the time.
There is no body cam footage of Luigi's arrest.
There is no autopsy report for Brian Thompson.
Luigi has so far been:
Stripped of his hat, jacket and shoes and forced to walk in the cold in December wearing wet socks.
Forced to urinate on himself where police then took and published humiliation photos of him.
He was then stripped of his shirt pants and socks and put in a blue psychiatric gown and strapped to a chair inmates called "the torture chair" and left for prolonged periods of time. To the point the entire inmate population at the prison protested in anger.
He was slammed unto a brick wall, choked, and shoved by various police officers for no reason.
Was marched through nyc at gunpoint by officers with military firearms, forced to wear chains
Was called a murderer by the mayor of NYC on national television.
Was then placed in solitary confinement for weeks. Something extremely damaging psychologically to be exposed to for even just a few days. Something usually reserved for cannibals.
He is now being forced to sleep on the floor despite again, a crippling back injury.
Again, he has not even had trial yet. He is an innocent man by the very definition of the law. He has nothing tying him to any crime. And even the crime itself was a nobody being shot in a city where nobodies are shot everyday, seven days a week. And those shooters don't get this treatment. Cannibals don't get this treatment. Serial killers don't get this treatment. Why are they doing this? Because we entered an oligarchy and they want people who are rich to matter more than people who are not. The NO ONE, no name, insignificant person that Brian THOMPSON always was and WILL ALWAYS BE is more important because of his net worth, to the fascist oligarchy we've entered into, than the innocent man, data scientist and robotics engineer with a promising future that is Luigi Mangione.
The NYPD doesn't want him to be innocent. They are torturing him gleefully and postponing his trial because they know he's innocent. They just want to scare the public into understanding that the ultra rich, even those who's names will never be remembered as anything other than markings on a never visited tombstone, are the only persons who matter now. Not yours. Never yours. You're poor. They'll torture you without a trial too. Your life means nothing to them. Your children dying in school shootings means nothing to them. Pinning a crime on an innocent man they can beat to scare the public out of class consciousness is the only thing that matters to them now. Depose them.
CHAPPELL ROAN accepts the Best New Artist award onstage during the 67th Annual GRAMMY Awards (Feb 2, 2025)
ever think about john boyega, daisy ridley, and oscar isaac’s collective enthusiasm during the force awakens era and then by rise of skywalker they were dead inside and never want to look at star wars again. makes me want to commit a violence.
Never forget how Isaacs went from begging for Poe’s homeworld to be Yavin 4 and then off-handedly saying he’d only do another Star Wars film if he needed the money barely five years later.
back to my roots or whatever
I, a hearing person who likes subtitles just as a preference, shouldn't have to read a subtitle that's obvious nonsense, go back a couple seconds, and listen again in order to figure out what's going on. An accessibility feature should not be the most half-assed part of a professionally made production. Scripted media has absolutely no excuse for not having subtitles or having subtitles that aren't perfectly verbatim. Professional captioning services should be ashamed of the shoddy work that they put out. Captions should be treated as a part of the production, just like filming, editing, audio balancing, etc - and anything that releases with missing or bad captions should be seen as unfinished
Is this actually a community wide or systemic problem or did you just meet one annoying guy
