    "Public laments are vivid refusals of state violence and corporate complicity. But they also enact an intimate politics around the ways we need each other."

  2. How to Wheat-Paste Posters 🧵

    archive.ph/xVAKX

    "Consider your safety and your privilege. “Don’t go out alone,” says Strandquist, who, as a 34-year-old white man, can poster the city in broad daylight with an impunity he knows won’t be extended to artists of color. Many of the group’s posters were put up with permission, but some are what he calls “uncommissioned.” Amplify the work and words of artists from the neighborhoods where you’re postering.

    A wheat-pasted poster might be ripped down after an hour or slowly fade over a year. Think of the layered aesthetic of a collection of posters as an ongoing public conversation. “It’s a way for artists to respond to a crisis,” Strandquist says. “And help us imagine a better, more equitable world.”

  3. How to Wheat-Paste Posters 🧵

    archive.ph/xVAKX

    "To cook wheat paste, use four parts water and one part flour. Start by boiling your water. In a separate bowl, whisk the flour with enough cold water to create a lump-free goo, then pour this mix into the boiling water. Turn the burner down low, and stir continuously for 20 minutes. Remove from the heat, and stir another 10 minutes. Wait until cooled to use.

    Print your poster on thin paper so the paste can seep through, preferably 20-pound, uncoated bond paper. Once on site, use a wide paintbrush to add a layer of paste just slightly larger than your image. Press your poster into the paste, pushing out any air pockets. Paint another layer over the top to seal."

    “Wheat paste is a way to get art and messaging into public spaces,” says Mark Strandquist, an artist from Philadelphia."

    “Wheat paste is a way to get art and messaging into public spaces,” says Mark Strandquist, an artist from Philadelphia, who was walking around his neighborhood in early March, past storefronts covered over in plywood, when he realized those boards and empty windows could serve as canvases. He put out a call to artists, and within a few weeks the project, called Fill the Walls with Hope, had collected dozens of downloadable images from them. Strandquist and his fellow artists have put up more than 1,000 posters with a home-cooked glue concoction made from flour and water. Many of the posters share messages of public health and safety, among them, “Mask Up” and “Don’t Let Racism Go Viral.”

  16. Risks to our rights steadily increasing


    Our monthly report on trends in the UK is worrying

    May 2026

    Government appeal against Palestine Action ban

    Good Law Project warns that if the Home Secretary Shabana Mahmoud wins her appeal against the lifting of the ban on Palestine Action th the combination of the Online Safety Act 2023 and the Terrorism Act 2000 could be used to silence support for anti-genocide campaigners.

    The problem lies in the very broadly drafted offences which even the police have found hard to apply. Online platforms might share this difficulty and fear heavy fines if they don’t remove references to action for Palestine. The Online Safety Act obliges platforms to remove “priority illegal content” from the internet in the UK. At the top of this list is “terrorism content” which includes posts that relate to section 12 of the Terrorism Act, such as “inviting support” for a terrorist organisation or “expressing an opinion or belief that is supportive of a proscribed organisation” while being “reckless as to whether a person to whom the expression is directed will be encouraged to support a proscribed organisation”. See also a previous post on this site pointing out the risks inherent in using this firm.

    Palantir Data Privacy Concerns continue

    The Good Law Project is supporting Democracy for Sale to raise a challenge about the information commissioner’s decision to keep secret documents sent to Wes Streeting Health Secretary and Health and Social Care Minister Karin Smyth that will reveal truths about the risks of Palantir’s data platform. The British Medical Association has expressed concern about handing sensitive health data to the company which has ties with the Israeli Military and ICE. See our previous post about the threats to our rights from this firm. Statements by the firm’s chief executive are illuminating.

    Equality and Human Rights Commission

    Following the Good Law challenge in the Supreme Court, the Equality and Human Rights Commission (EHRC) has been obliged by Education Secretary Bridget Phillipson to revise its guidance on the application of the Sex definition in order to provide ‘legally accurate, practical guidance’ and ensure ‘all service users are treated with dignity and respect’. Parliamentary approval will be sought in May. Recent testimonies from trans patients suggest that their health concerns are sidelined by some doctors.

    Democratic decline

    Amnesty International warns the UK is increasingly reflecting, rather than resisting, global trends towards weakening of democratic norms. The 2026 report can be accessed here and download the full report which is divided into countries.

    In 2025 – 2026 the UK has:

    – used counterterrorism powers to restrict peaceful protest

    – overseen the mass arrest of peaceful protesters, with courts ruling aspects unlawful

    – intensified hostile policies towards migrants and people seeking asylum

    – increased surveillance and policing powers

    – continued arms transfers to Israel despite clear risks of use in serious violations of international law

    – cut international aid amid escalating global humanitarian need

    – defended the use of national security vetoes in legacy Troubles cases, undermining truth, accountability and justice for victims and families

    – pursued economic and social policies that risk pushing more people into poverty, weakening protections for economic and social rights.

    As we have noted on several occasions before, successive governments have got themselves ensnared with various unpleasant regimes because of their desire to maintain arms exports. We continue to arm UAE despite their support for the rebels in Sudan and other destabilising actions in Libya and Yemen for example, and as noted, we continue to arm and support Israel despite the genocide in Gaza.

  23. Why I'm leaving #GitHub

    source: jorijn.com/en/blog/leaving-git…

    TL;DR

    • GitHub logged 257 incidents in May 2025 to April 2026, 48 of them major. The CTO publicly apologised and said capacity needs to scale 30x to keep up with AI-driven load.
    • In August 2025 GitHub stopped having its own CEO. It is now a unit of Microsoft's #CoreAI division, the same group building Copilot and the broader AI stack.
    • On April 24, 2026 GitHub flipped #Copilot Free, Pro, and Pro+ user-interaction data to opt-in for AI training by default. There is no repository-level opt-out.
    • US-jurisdictional risk under #FISA Section 702 and the CLOUD Act is unresolved. Microsoft's own attorney told the French Senate under oath he could not #guarantee #EU data was safe from silent US #government access.

    So tell me why do they still use GitHub?
