Last week, I joined @PeteForsaken on his @LiftedIcons radio show to discuss our favourite video game and film music. We had a great time talking about our favourite tracks.
I also shared a half-hour mix of my own original music, both new and old.

It is with great sadness the family of John Pilger announce he died yesterday 30 December 2023 in London aged 84. His journalism and documentaries were celebrated around the world, but to his family he was simply the most amazing and loved Dad, Grandad and partner. Rest In Peace.
Thread: What is happening in Sudan!

Help Sudan!!
If you see it, its your responsibility to spread it.
You can’t say “Black lives Matter” and not talk and what is happening in Sudan 🇸🇩.
You can’t say “Stop the Genocides” and not talk and what is happening in Sudan 🇸🇩.
You can’t protest against “Islamophobia” and not talk and what is happening in Sudan 🇸🇩.
Sudanese are black, Afro-Arabians and Muslims .. they are worth fighting for and they are in need for your voice and your support.

Having personally met him, I feel compelled to share his story.
I don't understand how the world can allow what is going on in Gaza to continue any longer, especially by so-called governments that claim to stand for democracy while turning a blind eye to people's suffering.
Fast forward to now, I've just learned that Mohammed was arrested and jailed for a month before being forcibly moved to Gaza. This innocent and kind person has been moved to one of the most dangerous places on earth. He has conveyed extreme fear about his situation.
A month later, when symptoms recurred, I sought his advice, and within an hour, he visited me, organizing additional tests. The kindness and assistance he provided were truly remarkable, and fortunately, no serious issues arose.
This summer, I had the privilege of spending three months in Palestine, specifically the West Bank, where I volunteered at a hostel to improve my Arabic language skills and immerse myself in a region I had always heard so much about.
My friend took me to Jericho's local hospital, where I received outstanding treatment from a doctor named Mohammed. Not only did he attend to my needs, but he also maintained regular contact to ensure my recovery.
One memorable night, my friends and I camped by the Dead Sea to witness the sunrise. I was plagued by mosquitoes and various insects throughout the night, leaving me feeling unwell the next day.
During this time, I experienced incredible moments, receiving a warm welcome and a sense of acceptance that deeply touched me. However, life under occupation for the local residents tells a different tale.
This is an abomination. As Jews, to see this being done in our name... horrifying, despicable, words fail.
This is what our government supports in Gaza. Thousands of children murdered, people being rounded up, stripped, and G-d knows what else.
Ceasefire NOW, end this nightmare
BREAKING: Over 1000 trade unionists at multiple sites across Britain are blockading arms factories that are supplying arms to Israel! 🇵🇸
#ShutItDown4Palestine
The BBC's been bombarded with complaints about its skewing of language to obscure Israel's role in killing Palestinians in Gaza. Yet it keeps running headlines like this one.
In fact, Israel's role in killing these 42 family members isn't mentioned *anywhere* in the story
