I remember when Pride WAS a protest.. before it became a pinkwashing exercise for council and corporate types.
I was there (and I'm in this video looking late 20's and cool in my denim and shades) .. and we marched down Oxford Rd with all the traffic and riot police and everything.. A friend Geoff Stafford has video of the actual march which was on his website, but for the life of me I can't remember the name of it

"Trumpaganda"

(make of that what you will)
Everyone’s still talking about Bob Vylan, and rightly so. A crowd full of westerners happily being led through a chant of “Death, death to the IDF” at the 2025 Glastonbury Festival was a historical landmark moment for the 21st century, and the group’s persecution at the hands of western governments is once again highlighting the way our society’s purported values of free thought and free expression go right out the window wherever Israel is concerned.
globalresearcBut one thing that’s not getting enough attention is the fact that many, many other acts also spoke out in support of Palestine at that same festival, and that the crowd was full of attendees waving Palestinian flags. Supporting Palestine and opposing Israel’s genocidal atrocities is just what’s cool now.
This is a massive cultural development, because it means we are seeing the emergence of actual, meaningful rebellion in western counterculture for the first time arguably since the Vietnam War. The artists and their fans aren’t just talking the talk of sticking it to the establishment anymore.
For generations the ruling class has been successfully stomping out all politically relevant counterculture, first in the form of direct frontal assault by official government operations like COINTELPRO, and then by the way all major platforms and studios are owned by plutocrats who benefit from the imperial status quo and refuse to elevate anyone who might pose a threat to it.
There have of course been countless artists in every generation who put on a rebellious face and give the finger to authority, but they’ve never presented any kind of threat to real power. Punk rockers who sing “fuck the man” but never advance any actual tangible causes. Satanic panic bands and shock rock superstars scaring church ladies and stirring culture wars. Bands voicing criticisms of the Iraq invasion but making it about supporting the Democratic Party. Celebrity musicians promoting social justice and equality without ever saying anything that might inconvenience the oligarchs and empire managers who rule our world.
The rich and powerful don’t care if you dye your hair or pierce your nose or kiss a member of the same sex or say Hail Satan. They don’t care if you support one mainstream political faction over the other, or if you yell empty words about anarchy and revolution that aren’t pointed toward any real material goals. They care very much, however, if you are undermining public consent for military and geopolitical agendas they’ve worked very hard to propagandize the public into accepting.
The establishment never dropped the hammer on Marilyn Manson. Lady Gaga never ran into trouble with the state for singing that gay people are Born This Way. Ozzy Osbourne is living in the lap of luxury with an estimated net worth of $220 million. But groups like Kneecap and Bob Vylan are being subjected to police investigations and visa revocations for taking a stand on Palestine.
Which, of course, is only going to make their position more popular among young people with a defiant streak in them.
It’s hard to imagine how western governments could make support for Palestine look more attractive to western youths, really. Here’s this unimaginably horrific mass atrocity that they can all watch unfolding on their phone screens in real time every single day of the year, and they’re being told “You’re not allowed to oppose this. We, the stuffed shirts in Washington and London, command you to obey. If you think unauthorized thoughts and chant unauthorized chants, we are going to get very huffy and upset.”
I mean, can you think of anything more fun?
This is after all the generation who’s been told that they need to accept being poorer and sicker than their parents and grandparents and that they’ll never own a home no matter what they do, knowing full well that the crusty old bastards finger-wagging at them for opposing an active genocide are the same freaks who’ve refused to do anything to steer their planet’s ecosystem away from looming disaster. They have every reason to want to express defiance, and nothing to lose by doing so.
A real, politically meaningful counterculture has been born in the western world, and our rulers are already showing us that they’re afraid of it. This is a fascinating time to be alive.

This is a great example of something being pushed that most really do not want.
Big Tech is very focused on winning the AI war. Problem is, that in their eagerness to do that, they focus just on what they want you to do, instead of what you want to do.

It is amazing how fast and stable becomes Windows when all this bloatware, spyware and services "to improve the user experience" is thrown out, which Windows brings by default.
Cripes these disc brake pads are a nightmare. There is apparently only a small metal clip/spring and two pads, however there is no retaining screw or cotter pin. Damned if I can get the fucking old pads out... They wiggle. But they are impeded somehow that is not immediately apparent.
I may in fact wind up just buying new caliper assemblies and installing those. It's about the same price.
OMG I got it out. AND I found the right replacements:
Should be fun getting them back in.
I have no idea how to get those two tabs to clear the channel in the housing of the caliper. Unreal.
I may buy new calipers if only to acquire a better mounting system.

Kuinka paljon ja kuinka monille voi pienestä pihaniitystä olla iloa?
Oon monesti täällä kertonut pienestä niitystä, joka perustettiin vuosi sitten tähän vuokraluhtitalon pihaan lupia keneltäkään kysymättä.
Harattiin hylyn hallussa ollut paljas maa ja kylvettiin muutaman euron niittysiemenpussi siihen. Ympärille vedettiin naru, eikä kukaan sen jälkeen ole siitä kulkenut.
Ekana kesänä tuli mm. ruiskaunokkia, pellavaa, kurjenpolvea.

Yläkerran naapurin mukaan hänelle ja hänen tutuilleen on tuonut valtavasti iloa nähdä päivänkakkaroita kaupungissa. Niitä ei kuulemma ole maalla vietetyn lapsuuden jälkeen saanut nähdä oikein missään.
Tänään oli pihalla oikein suurempi kokous ihan vaan ihmettelemässä mitä uusia kukkia nyt avautuu. Niitty synnyttää yhteisöllisyyttä ja keskustelua ihan itsestään.
Kukaan ei tätä tallo tai revi kylttiä pois. Meitä on käyty erikseen kiittämässä, että kylvettiin tämä.
Niin pieni iso asia.
