UK here, checking labels and boycotting anything that's from the USA, as well as other USA products that might be made here in the UK or EU.

Fascists fuck off!!!

For anyone who likes my DJing, I've got two streams on at https://twitch.tv/airadam13 over the next few days;

- Saturday, 1800 UK time - Hip-Hop & More - the foundation show of the channel, mixing it up on a Saturday evening, and no need for you to get a taxi home 🙂

- Monday, 1900 UK time : 45 Funksters - all-45s (always hilarious with my massive hands), one-hour funk set as part of a larger raid train of DJs!

My event calendar is always @ http://events.airadam.com btw!

An alternative to Labour's cuts exists.

Polling shows the vast majority of people in Scotland back a wealth tax on the super-rich. It would be fair, popular, and long overdue.

Ok UK. Let’s boycott as many US products as possible.

Ideas:
- Proton for cloud storage, mail, password protectors, VPNs etc.
- Using non-US browsers
- Avoiding US fast-food chains, Starbucks, Coca Cola, Pepsi etc.
- Avoiding Asda, shopping at Tesco, Sainsbury’s, Lidl or Aldi.
- No holidays to the US.
- Switch clothing brands

And of course, ditch Tesla.

With most tech made in the US, it’s tricky to boycott entirely. But we can make a dent.

This Global #Recycling Day, let’s talk about our favorite way to reduce waste: repair!
Recycling is inefficient, complex, and time consuming. It should be the very last step in a long line of alternatives. While Reduce and Reuse are the best options, we think the missing R is Repair.
Here's why: https://www.ifixit.com/Right-to-Repair/Recycling

The British are devilishly good at this.

We must not fall for cynical attempts to divide us.

#InternationalWomensDay is a reminder that the fight for women's rights must be united, international, and inclusive.

I was also honoured to DJ as part of the Hip Hop Chip Shop closing party ❤️ I've played there quite a few times over the years, and during quarantine in 2020 they played my Twitch streams on their projector setup for the staff and people coming to collect orders!

If you are thinking of doing something for #IWD2025, please use the UN's theme
https://www.unwomen.org/en/news-stories/announcement/2024/12/international-womens-day-2025-for-all-women-and-girls-rights-equality-empowerment

The top return on search engines is a commercial site that has hijacked the day for non-political fluff. The UN day focusses on rights.

I didn't realize how fucking useful the word 'fucking' is for eliminating AI

Turns out, it's really fucking useful!

Scotland is being held back by disastrous decisions made in London. 65 countries came to the same conclusion and now celebrate their independence from the United Kingdom. Scotlands best days will come with independence.

Positive.News: The bakery that offers pay-as-you-can-afford bread.

"Our bakery is part of Granton Community Gardeners, a local community charity in a less affluent area of Edinburgh. This is a grassroots community organisation that provides opportunities and support for local people to grow, cook and eat food together. We provide regular weekly community meals, free of charge, but where everyone is invited to do something to contribute, from growing the food to collecting dishes."

#oppression to #tRUMPSamerica is IMPERATIVE

On 22 January, GB News presenter Josh Howie repeated a homophobic slur linking the LGBTQ+ community to paedophilia. This is offensive, wrong and unlawful. Join me and @GoodLawProject to file a complaint to Ofcom https://action.goodlawproject.org/ofcom-stop-gb-news-broadcasting-hate

I mean, if an EU citizen’s initiative to tax the rich cannot get a paltry 1 million signatures (less than one quarter of one percent of the population), I guess we really must deserve this bullshit system.

You still have five days, sign this ffs:
