Government style ad in watercolour. Image of a burglar stealing a painting from the wall of a home. Tagline: "It's not theft... if you say you're using it to train your AI algorithm". Body text: "Theft is now legal, so we can boost the economy by eliminating jobs. If that doesn't make any sense, ask a chatbot to explain it to you." HM government logo in the corner.

Virginia Guiffre statement to Maxwell read on the day of her sentencing.

This is Virginia Guiffre's statement to Ghislane Maxwell, read by Guiffre's attorney in court the day Maxwell was sentenced.

I had to divide it into 2 parts. Please read each & share.

These are the words of a child rape victim, a victim of the monster Trump now protecting & arranging her freedom.

This is excellent, but given how recent ICJ rulings have been ignored by the likes of Israel, will it make any difference?

This popped up on the shuffle and I’d forgotten quite how good it is - just perfectly crafted main room house music. Worth a re-rub I reckon; maybe making us of that ecstatic synth line at 4.30…

All that Glasto has got me reminiscing about Scotland’s version: the mighty T in the Park.

My first experience was in 2001, where I fell in love with techno among the 15,000 wonderful souls of the SLAM tent.

Some lineup eh?
