Edward Colston statue replaced by sculpture of Black Lives Matter protester–Archie Bland
“I’ve always felt it’s part of my job to bring the world into art and art into the world,” said [sculptor Marc] Quinn, who previously made a series of works inspired by the riots that followed the police killing of Mark Duggan in 2011. “Jen created the sculpture when she stood on the plinth and raised her arm in the air. Now we’re crystallising it.”
Beautiful!
¡Y la trama ya nos ha traído a Uppsala, a las frías tierras libres del Norte!
En esta entrega leemos nuevamente sobre las penurias de la #migración. Nuestres protagonistes están cada vez más mayores y más cansades de cambios y viajes... pero al menos han dejado atrás lo peor del #cisheteropatriarcado.
Empezamos a ver también las primeras semejanzas y diferencias entre territorios #ecoanarquistas del Norte y del Sur. Y me meto también una pulla autocrítica sobre lo problemático que es hablar sobre las opresiones que no se han vivido de cerca, por buena que sea la voluntad que se tenga.

Today is the 35th anniversary of the MOVE bombing in Philadelphia, where the City dropped a bomb on a black liberation group and blew up 60 homes.
Here's an excellent twitter thread on it with tons of links to resources.

I saw Janet doing the rounds on the internets in the past 24 hours.
I came across it several weeks ago, and it looks interesting, especially with the ability to embed it easily (a la Lua).
But for personal projects, I like that there's the Joy web framework and bindings to SQLite available. I've had the idea of running a dead-simple minimal wiki for my personal knowledge-base, and the idea of building my own with something like Janet sounds fun.

This shouldn't be possible.
AR-Cutpaste "copies" objects from around you in reality, using your phone camera, and "pastes" them on your graphic design.
Sometimes, every now and then software really feels like magic. Really clever.
Watch the video.

@haitch imagine the panic when the 5G conspiracy crowd discovers that both their microwave oven and their home WiFi operate at the same, 2.4 Ghz frequency LOL
“One of the victims of censorship that I’ve never heard anyone else talk about ... is the later future capacity to tell histories of the period when censorship happened.” Read more from our fascinating interview with historian and author @ada_palmer https://www.eff.org/pages/speaking-freely-ada-palmer
