What is this generations Nirvana, Limp Bizkit, Tupac, or Rage against the machine?
I feel global political oppression or global wars usually produce great music but Macklemore might be the peak.
Nothing against him, some of his songs are good, but I expected real rage inducing stuff with everything going on. Or is this just the state of music as a whole?
The Biggest Applause Line From Graham Platner's Labor Day Speech Was About Ending US Bombs in Gaza | Common Dreams

Former Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg called the conflict in Gaza that's killed more than 63,000 Palestinians and starved hundreds of people "complicated," while Rep. Ritchie Torres (D-NY) last week accused a Jewish comedian of "justifying antisemitism" for noting that more than 80% of people killed by the Israel Defense Forces were civilians. Both responses garnered condemnation from Palestinian rights advocates and progressive commentators.But on Monday—before a packed house of more than 6,500 in Portland—Platner took a much different approach.
"Our taxpayer dollars can build schools and hospitals in America, not bombs to destroy them in Gaza," said Platner, leading the audience to stand up and applaud for a full 30 seconds.
Platner, a military veteran and oyster farmer who is challenging Collins—a vehement supporter of Israel—has previously spoken about Gaza in an interview for Zeteo, calling Israel's US-backed attack on the territory "the moral test of our time."
He repeated his message on social media Tuesday, saying: "It's not complicated: Not one more taxpayer dollar for genocide."

Drop Site Daily: Sept 4, 2025At least 54 Palestinians have been killed by the Israeli military across Gaza since dawn today. Israel has killed 84 Palestinians and injured 338 in the past 24 hours. Three more Palestinians have died from famine; this brings the total of famine deaths to 370, including 131 children. The Israeli military warns that it will impose direct martial rule over the entire Gaza Strip. Marco Rubio signals an assent to further West Bank annexations. A federal judge reverses Trump’s defunding of Harvard research, calling it an “unconstitutional retaliation.” Israel strikes a construction equipment repair warehouse in southern Lebanon, again violating the ceasefire. Rubio met with Mexico’s Claudia Sheinbaum and defended the recent U.S. missile strike on a Venezuelan vessel. Iraqi officials claim to have busted a global Islamic State “financing network.”

I have a few friends in this situation.
My wife and I sometimes say that we are happy that we are done with the going out dating night life scene.
We both had fun times dating when we were younger and single, but we are older now and are happy to relax on our home on a Friday night.
One of our single friends said they were tired of going out to date and stuff, and I don’t blame her. As you get into your late 30s, the appeal is kind of gone.
I’m sure I don’t speak for everyone. But I just wanted to share my experience.

Police Officers Admit They Feel ‘Ashamed’ Enforcing ‘Mad’ Palestine Action Ban
Enforcing the Palestine Action ban is exhausting, unsustainable and making cops miserable, Met officers, government lawyers and the police federation have told Novara Media.
One officer described feeling “ashamed and sick” when they arrested a disabled person on terror charges. “That feeling won’t leave me anytime soon,” they said. Another told an arrestee it’s “not the work I came into the police to be doing”.
A Police Federation spokesperson, meanwhile, criticised the fact there are “no ‘extra’ officers” to police Palestine Action protests, putting London’s Met police in particular at high risk of burnout. “Officers are emotionally and physically exhausted,” the spokesperson said. “The demand is relentless. And it’s not sustainable.”

Hamas to Trump: We Are Ready to Release All Israeli Captives in Comprehensive Ceasefire Deal
Three weeks ago, Hamas agreed to a U.S.-Israeli-drafted ceasefire, but its offer was ignored. Now, the movement says it will accept a comprehensive deal in a renewed bid to end the genocide.Jeremy Scahill (Drop Site News)
They'd probably accept demilitarization as well with enough security guarantees. And then, what more could Israel ask ?
Men are opening up about mental health to AI instead of humans
Men are opening up about mental health to AI instead of humans
Men are turning to AI for mental health support, finding digital confidants where traditional therapy falls short.Luna Awomi (AI Indexes)
This reminds me of ELIZA, a natural language processing program from the 60’s that induced what they coined as the ELIZA effect, a tendency to anthropomorphize the computer. Joseph Wizenbaum, the computer scientist who created ELIZA, wrote Computer Power and Human Reason: From Judgment to Calculation in which he contends that while artificial intelligence may be possible, we should never allow computers to make important decisions, as they will always lack human qualities such as compassion and wisdom.
Most people STILL have no concept of how digital mass surveillance functions, what it can do, and how it can be used to manipulate them right now, today. Now, it’s common practice to pour your heart out to and have intimate extended relationships with AI systems controlled by the very same corporate surveillance complex.
The danger is not that AI will become self aware and turn against humanity, it is that people will not realize that it has already been turned against us by its masters.

CBS News Is Turning Into An Israeli Propaganda Network (Video 10mins)
As a new owner acquires CBS and Paramount, we expose a disturbing partnership with Bari Weiss's "Free Press," a media outlet that has been used by Israeli leaders to justify genocide. Emma Vigeland and the MR crew connect the dots from a multi-million dollar settlement with the Trump administration to the cancellation of popular liberal shows to the consolidation of media power under the direction of powerful conservative interests.

UK complicit in Israeli war crimes, Jeremy Corbyn's tribunal hears
Thursday was the first day of former Labour leader Jeremy Corbyn's highly publicised Gaza Tribunal, which aims to hold Britain accountable for its role in enabling Israel’s ongoing war crimes in Gaza.
The independent MP, now a key figure in the establishment of a new left-wing party, put forward a bill earlier this year for a public Chilcot-style inquiry into Britain's military cooperation with Israel.
But the Labour government blocked the bill. This unofficial two-day inquest is taking place instead.
There was nothing trivial about the tribunal. Eyewitnesses, UN rapporteurs, journalists, medics and academics all gave evidence on Thursday.

As a British Palestinian, I urge you to keep (or start!) speaking up for Gaza and Palestinians. The situation in Gaza and the West Bank gets worse daily. But please do not succumb to hopelessness or assume that you are powerless to change things. While it may seem like nothing will shame politicians into meaningfully upholding international human rights law, your voice does make a difference. Writing to your MP; protesting; donating; supporting the Freedom Flotilla Coalition; advocating online; boycotting companies such as Airbnb which profit from illegal settlements. These sorts of things do make a difference.~~___~~
