  1. very cool article about us in the #canary with a very cool video from us about the #OUPSG activism disrupting careers events at #BAE & #Cisco who are 2 #WeaponsManufacturers heavily involved in #genocide & dominating the #OpenUniversity, privatising it effectively from the inside out.
    there's links in the article encouraging you to join in our actions & support us.

    the #OU is the biggest online university on the planet, & we're probably the smallest protest group against #warcrimes & genocide so your help is very much appreciated!

  2. Yesterday, I got to take a visiting Mastodon mutual to bao, the dimsum restaurant on Valencia St in the Mission.

    It is one of very few places where you can have dimsum for dinner (sit down dimsum is typically a breakfast / brunch thing).

    The standard was as good as any other high quality dimsum place I like. They have a much smaller menu compared to a traditional dimsum hall, but large for a Chinese restaurant in the Mission. They have all of the classics.

    I would try everything there except the xlb (I’m picky and don’t think Cantonese people do it well). The standard dimsum classics (har gow, siu mai, turnip cake, woo kok) were all good.

    They have plenty of veg options as well, well marked on the menu.

  3. consider signing this #petition set up by one of my #FreePalestine 🇵🇸 activist student pals who are holding the #OpenUniversity to account for their active complicity in the #genocides their 'partners' are waging with our tuition fees. #BAE #Cisco #Alphabet #Google #Microsoft & others.

    “The aim [of this article] is simple: to illuminate the mechanics of modern arms trading when it is most brutally relevant -when profit & power speak louder than the lives destroyed in their wake”

  12. There will be over 100 grassroots organisations and #activist groups converging on 🎴🎴the #ExCeL Centre in #London on SEPTEMBER 9 🎴🎴to #protest #DSEI – one of the world’s largest #arms fairs. There will be an #Israel pavillion, with #Elbit, as well as other #genocide tried & tested weapons from British #BAE Systems. Many #faith-based groups, #climateaction orgs, #Palestine solidarity and #disarmament groups will be there. Be counted!!

  13. After waking up with the news that the entire remaining AlJazeera team of journalists in #gaza has been murdered as well as 500 arrests of mostly elderly pensioners peacefully protesting the #PalestinianGenocide and supporting PA in #london yesterday, i have postponed my #CrimPsych course at the #OpenUniversity for the second yr running.
    i have told the #OU exactly why:

    as long as the uni uses my tuition fees to fund #BAE #cisco #alphabet (#Google) #microsoft & others carrying out #warcrimes, i refuse to finish my degree, not only because of that, but also because i can't cope. my personal life mirrors the situation globally, i am recovering from the same narcissistic abuse my ex-partners have put me through that increasingly state institutions and most multinational companies subject me to.

    the OU has not engaged with me in any meaningful way about my complaints, nor my fellow students & staff who are tirelessly campaigning for over 2 yrs now.
    the OU should immediately divest from these parasitic companies and behave like a public institution should: for the public, by the public.
    outsourcing work to commercial monopolies undermines moral integrity, academic development and democracy itself.
    universities will become meaningless propaganda machines brainwashing ppl into servitude to the capitalist system.

  15. BAE Systems hat das Design des UK Combat Air Flying Demonstrator vorgestellt. Der britische Tarnkappen-Überschalljäger soll 2027 abheben und ist der erste neue #Kampfjet dieser Art aus UK seit 40 Jahren. #BAE winfuture.de/news,152313.html?

  16. my complaints to the #OpenUniversity sent on the 23/06/25 for which, besides 2 emails saying they'll reply within 10 days, i am still waiting to get a meaningful reply:

    i am a student criminology and psychology at the #ou. i am hereby complaining about the fact that the ou spends student's tuition fees on contracts and so called partnerships with companies that are actively involved in the mass murder of fellow human beings for profit.
    the university has a legal duty to uphold domestic and international law, including by cutting ties with companies linked to ongoing #warcrimes.
    #BAE weapons have been linked to mass civilian deaths in both #Gaza and #Yemen, confirmed by #UN investigations and independent human rights organisations.

    BAE arms authoritarian regimes including #SaudiArabia, #Egypt, #UAE, and #Bahrain—all of which are known for state violence, #repression, and #torture.

    In 2024, BAE posted record #profits of over £2.5 billion, profiting from #weapons sold to governments actively involved in #MilitaryAssaults on civilian populations.

    BAE has faced multiple major #corruption scandals, including a £286 million #UK settlement and a $400 million fine in the #US over #bribery in arms deals.

    #University partnerships whitewash BAE’s image, giving it legitimacy and access to students—despite its central role in the global war machine.

    The Open University’s #collaboration with BAE helps normalise the arms trade, making #students #complicit unless we speak out.
    War is not only deadly—it is #ecocidal. BAE profits from destruction that fuels #ClimateCollapse, yet the #OU claims to value #sustainability.
    why is the ou engaging in this #criminal behaviour for years now, whilst teaching me about so called #crime?
    the university has a moral imperative to defend freedom and justice across the world, including the human rights of its academic colleagues in the #Palestinian territories.
    #Israel has destroyed all universities in Gaza, and over 300 #schools and #libraries. Education is a target in Gaza, and the OU’s academic peers are at risk.
    i demand the open university to immediately #divest our tuition fees from b.a.e. , #microsoft, #alphabet, #cisco and others involved in supporting and enabling #genocide and war across the world.
    i am currently on a year off from studying because of #MentalHealth conditions, which only have worsened because of this.
    i am seriously considering ending my studies because my #MoralIntegrity is more important than anything in my life, and i am not willing to get a huge debt that i know is being used to kill people. that makes me complicit with war crimes and genocide.
    besides , i can't take the study material seriously when the ou is #enabling, #normalising and #funding criminal conduct by the companies it contracts to deliver services and infrastructure, and then refuses to take #accountability.
    shame on you!

  17. Like any technology, it’s a race: UK’s largest #ammo maker rebooting chemistry to break NATO’s dependence on #explosives imports

    #BAE is hastening to fill the demand that #Russia’s #invasion of #Ukraine has created for armaments both in Ukraine and elsewhere

    Its U.K. branch is, however, unique in banking on a new chemical process that moves away from a key import entirely — and may well be the template for Ukraine to make more explosives of its own.
