Pretty hard to take that it's now public knowledge with irrefutable evidence that the IDF has a unit dedicated to training dogs to rape people and people still are not ashamed of supporting Israel. And those people have names like penny Wong and Anthony Albanese and Chris Minns

Two years of lying about bombing Gaza's hospitals – supposedly to target "Hamas control and command centres" underneath – has really paid off. Now Israel bombs Lebanon's hospitals and doesn't even need to pretend there's a military rationale.

I understand why this is confusing: you're used to the press saying poor people deserve to die and not rich people.

MAMMAL BULLYING A REPTILE: Nice body temperature dude. Did the sun pick it out for you

Israel killed the son of a chief negotiator in the talks over Gaza's future in an airstrike. He is the FOURTH son of Hamas' exiled Gaza chief killed by Israel.

Daredevil reborn is peak American liberal television. The kingpin creates a police state, arrests hundreds of people without charges and literally murders 30 people with his bare hands in front of witnesses and at the end it’s like no charges, just let him get a deal and go away.

Albanese really does push the "almost beyond satire" line hard.

Today's free newsletter is about the dangers of treating AI as being more than it is - a website or app built on expensive technology, with dubious reliability and inherently unsustainable economics. The rhetoric from AI labs has to change. www.wheresyoured.at/i-will-never-respect-a-website/

At this point I don’t think anyone should consider engaging in negotiations with the United States.

“Senior advisers to…Trump would prefer Israel strike Iran before the United States launches an assault on the country… These Trump…officials are privately arguing that an Israeli attack would trigger Iran to retaliate, HELPING MUSTER SUPPORT FROM AMERICAN VOTERS FOR A US STRIKE.” [emphasis added]

I don’t think we should have ceded control quite so quickly and without so much as a fight.

Just learned that David Harbour named the apartment where he has sex "The Dojo" and tbh even if I was really into someone, the instant they call their home "The Dojo" I'm out. That said it they take me back to an actual dojo for sex? I'm in.

There is a better version of this world where Trump remained just NYC guy who eventually became the bitchiest host on Ru Paul.

Hate to break it but if you think mitigation of climate change is doomed inevitably to eternal failure due to social, economic and political limits.. ..I have some v v bad news about the social, economic and political requirements for CDR to work at scale, or for geoengineering to work at scale

Who would have thought the nuclear power plant that went into melt down because of a tsunami would be at risk from another tsunami?

Labour’s civil war had next to nothing to do with antisemitism and even less to do with actual policy, left OR right. Labour had spent two decades turning the party into a well-oiled money-spinning op between big business and MPs, and Corbyn’s desired reforms imperilled their phoney-baloney jobs.

The very first line of her Foreward implicating Jews in a genocide prima facie meets her definition of antisemitism.

This wouldn’t have happened if we’d still had Peter khalil’s steady hand as envoy for social cohesion.
