"I imagine [Harmony] Korine and his crew approach cinema much like [Brian] Eno’s friends thought of sound back in the 1970s... It’s a score that is as compelling as it is subdued; it bumbles along throughout, but with few of the usual gear shifts that characterize mainstream film scoring: no sudden drops, no shrieking stings. Instead, it maintains a consistent emotional tenor, becoming—in Eno’s words—continuous, a surrounding. Even the gunshots are not so loud as to poke out from the overall aural wallpaper."

I find it interesting that when publications hold favour for artists they are quick to use the quote/rank/opinion for their social assets and promotion, but when these same platforms are critical they weaponise their platform and fandoms and call said pubs “irrelevant”

Macron built up the far right and attacked the left. He thought it would give voters nowhere else to go but him. He pursued austerity and copied Le Pen's anti-migrant rubbish. It has ended in disaster for him and chaos for France. Lessons to be learnt. bbc.co.uk/news/articles/…

Our MP continues to be a huge embarrassment to all in Bermondsey. Harder to get away with the 'Corbyn made me do it' claptrap now. Retire already Neil! End the misery!

Jeremy Corbyn
Jeremy Corbyn@jeremycorbyn·
I am deeply alarmed by the raid on the Kurdish Community Centre by large numbers of riot police. The Centre is an important cultural space for the diverse and inclusive communities of North London. It provides support for refugees who have fled war and persecution, and a space for the Kurdish community to come together. Its services and classes are a lifeline for many. Attacks on one community's institutions or its democratic freedoms is an attack on us all. I am proud to represent a constituency with a vibrant Kurdish community. They have changed our part of London for the better – and their resolve is an inspiration to millions of us seeking to build a more just and peaceful world.

So get this. New analysis shows that: 🚜 Non-farmers were responsible for 56 per cent of farmland purchases last year 🚜 With 400,000 hectares of agricultural land taken out of use for farming in the same year 🚜 Experts link this to financial advice that recommends the potential tax breaks of investing in farmland

There are fun bad movies and then there's the lowest-rated movie on IMDb, which is anything but a pleasure to watch (guilty or otherwise). slashfilm.com/1713466/worst-…

@monsterbobby Sadly, I doubt there's a very big pool of, say, committed leftist hackers who have the expertise but are content to use them punishing rapacious corporations

the fact that we get quite regular high-profile cyber attacks on things like NHS hospitals, the British Library, & the Internet Archive, but never, like, insurance companies or the offices of rightwing politicians really makes it hard to believe in the existence of 'good' hackers
