My little obit for James McMahon – a funny, creative, passionate and occasionally maddening friend who I had an absolute blast with in my early NME days. RIP Jam x theguardian.com/music/2024/n…

Home Office admits it does not tell families when asylum seekers die in its care. Utter contempt for people who die in their care and their families. There is clear disregard for their legal and moral responsibility. Shameful. theguardian.com/politics/202…

There aren’t enough voices speaking out against Netanyahu’s strategy. 20,000 dead. Mostly children. Gaza has an average age of 18. It will always be ok to criticise a government. And there is just no logical reason this makes Israel safer.
Bidding farewell to his third child in around two months.. Aljazeera correspondent Wael al-Dahdouh lost his eldest son Hamza in an Israeli airstrike today. In October, he lost his wife and 2 other children in the ongoing Israeli attacks. xitter.cf/KhaledSafi/status/1743…

Hi @DHLParcelUK - your customer service sends me in a loop so I can’t speak to a human. Despite 3 people being home, you say you can’t deliver due to no-one home. No calling card left + instructions to leave in porch of flats ignored. How do I get to speak to a human please?
