Never fun to write about but had to be done. To give an insight, having walked in those shoes, into why @Uz_Khawaja felt the need to let out all his emotions. He isn’t playing the race card or playing victim. He’s letting you know how it feels & so am I

Everyone talking about Segal's racist husband as if that's what makes her unsuitable is ignoring two things: 1) we do not need an "anti-semitism envoy" 2) even if we did, she is not equipped to fulfil the role. She is a Zionist lobbyist with numerous conflicts of interest.
the AFL community is a cesspool of bigots, so for tilly to come out and share their story is incredibly brave. we have a very long way to go, but shining a light on issues like this is such a huge step in the right direction. everyone deserves to feel like their authentic self.
What can Australia do?
1. Expel Israeli Ambassador.
2. Ban the export of fighter plane parts.
3. Recognize Palestine.
4. State unequivocally that Israel is committing genocide.
5. Ban subsidies and government contracts for any enterprises that supply the Israeli war machine.
New emissions data is out - and it’s not good news. Carbon pollution is going up, and it’s higher than under Morrison’s Libs.
Labor’s approval of new coal and gas like the North West Shelf has consequences for the planet.
Two climate tests so far - and Labor’s failed both.
Labor have just approved a 45 year extension to our most polluting gas project faster than Peter Dutton said he would if he won office.
They sold out to their fossil fuel donors a long ago, and it's never been clearer.
New findings out of UCSF! Psilocybin was safely administered to people with Parkinson’s, and the results were remarkable. In addition to improved mood, participants also saw lasting gains in motor function and cognition, with no serious side effects.
This is the first time a psychedelic has been tested in a neurodegenerative disease, and the outcomes are promising enough to launch a larger clinical trial, supported by the Michael J. Fox Foundation.
A powerful reminder: nature holds deep potential to heal.

dev patel, one of the few working class brits allowed into showbiz via the class-conscious casting of skins, reaching a level of stardom where he can make his own projects and exclusively making movies about poor people slaughtering the rich and powerful .. im seeing the vision

KNEECAP STATEMENT:
Since our statements at Coachella — exposing the ongoing genocide against the Palestinian people — we have faced a coordinated smear campaign.
For over a year, we have used our shows to call out the British and Irish governments' complicity in war crimes.
The recent attacks against us, largely emanating from the US, are based on deliberate distortions and falsehoods. We are taking action against several of these malicious efforts.
Let us be absolutely clear.
The reason Kneecap is being targeted is simple — we are telling the truth, and our audience is growing.
Those attacking us want to silence criticism of a mass slaughter. They weaponize false accusations of antisemitism to distract, confuse, and provide cover for genocide.
We do not give a f*ck what religion anyone practices. We know there are massive numbers of Jewish people outraged by this genocide just as we are. What we care about is that governments of the countries we perform in are enabling some of the most horrific crimes of our lifetimes — and we will not stay silent.
No media spin will change this.
Our only concern is the Palestinian people — the 20,000 murdered children and counting.
The young people at our gigs see through the lies.
They stand on the side of humanity and justice.
And that gives us great hope.
Kneecap ❤️

“I look forward to the day when there will be an investigation into the role of Western corporate media in this genocide.”
“Because this is not just a genocide that has been overlooked.”
“This is a genocide that has been justified and enabled by the media.”
