I was at Sprüngli in Zurich this morning for a hot chocolate. A dark skinned woman came in and asked for a table. She was told to wait. A white lady came in just after and was seated immediately. And honestly, the hot chocolate wasn't even that good. Definitely taking my money elsewhere from now on

Hi there! I'm excited to announce that I have a short story published in @thewritelaunch.bsky.social this month. Parent-child relationships are always complicated, much more so as we get older. I try to explore that here. #writersky #writing #shortstories thewritelaunch.com/2025/09/she-...

TIL that GoFundMe’s execs are full of IDF & IDF adjacent & it makes 👇👇👇 make infinitely more sense

Genocide.

Of course not. Tony Blair is in on it

Israeli drones dropped grenades near peacekeepers in south Lebanon, UN says

I had read that if someone at a store like Sephora gives you a basket it's profiling. I thought it was just a US thing but I just went into Claire's in Zurich & the woman accosted me with a basket. She followed me around & didn't stop until I left. There were many others in the store, all ignored.

Why do countries keep saying they will wait until September to recognise Palestinian statehood? Are they waiting for the Palestinians to all be dead first, so they don't have to, all while looking like they tried to react? Either way politicians, we see you. We will remember. #freepalestine

I just learned about this today after using the terms Gazan & Palestinian interchangeably when discussing Gaza specifically. Someone kindly educated me, & now they have educated you too. I initially got defensive & almost missed out on learning something really important.

Gladys needs to ship that sister-in-law off to the Dowager House ASAP. Get her out of there ! #TheGildedAge

I’m disgusted with Justice Maria Carroccia, the Ontario Superior Court of Justice and the Canadian Justice system on the whole. Today is a sad day for women in Canada. Take note, you are not safe and this country doesn’t care. #hockeycanadatrial

Hockey players will always be protected in Canada. I knew this was going to happen, even though I hoped for better. Keep an eye on their big NHL contracts now. Next time these b@stards will kill someone, and it'll still be fine. EM deserves better. We all do. #hockeycanadatrial #canadasky

so when you… • force this tech on most everyone • block it from acknowledging trans people even exist • remove lgbtq people from human rights reporting & allow ICE to conceal info on trans people in custody …it seems like a good time for cis folks to stop considering political “compromises.”

BBC = Bumbling Bunch of Clowns Genocide enabling racist b@stards - NOW they're worried about their journalists? 🤡 #freepalestine

Aaaaand Soad’s voice been silenced by the Bluesky arm of the IOF. This is her campaign. She was asking for $167 USD to pay for treatment for her son’s excruciating medical condition.

We have failed them. #freepalestine #gaza #poetry

I just watched the final episode of Vera and it felt like the loss of an old friend @itvx.com #tvsky

CBS said it wasn't political. Of course it was. They are now fully a propaganda tool of the US Government. Hopefully Colbert and all of his staff find a new home for their fantastic show. #StephenColbert

So, the IDF are now shooting teenage boys in the testicles ensure they cannot reproduce but yes, please, let's complain about how musical artists and 83 year old protestors with cardboard signs are a danger to us all. #FreePalestine

Overhead at the nail salon (in Montreal): the Egyptians can build the pyramids that last thousands of years but here they have to repave the corner of Sherbrooke and Cavendish every two years. 😅

Flying Air Canada after flying Emirates is like taking a Swiss Train and then a rickshaw

I'm watching CTV news and the amount of Israeli propaganda I'm hearing is exhausting. Real, fact-based news doesn't exist anymore, all of the Western media has been bought and paid for.

I know an amazing father in Gaza who built a tent in the beach with his own blood sweat & tears to shelter his family during a genocide you’re complicit in. His name is Fathi & that beach was massacred this morning. He hasn’t opened his messages yet. #SaveFathi

Stop saying "pre-emptive." The correct words are: Unprovoked Illegal Terrorism

Marc Carney visiting an art exhibit about the Oct 7 attacks not even commenting about the ongoing genocide and kidnapping of the freedom flotilla crew isn't a surprise, but a disappointment. White supremacy first and foremost. Always #FreedomFlotilla #FreePalestine

Somalis take a ship and detain its passengers and everyone screams piracy but the Israelis do it and silence ...

Most "Western" governments are complicit. Mainstream media is complicit. We need to keep pushing #freepalestine genevasolutions.news/peace-humani...
