...i have every intention of asking for a reasonable pay increase once this first round of upgrades/onboarding is finished, on top of which, when it's all done (fingers crossed end of year?) i plan to ask for a % of net profit paid out either quarterly or semiannually...
On this day in 1953, MI6 and the CIA overthrew Iran's democracy.
British officials wanted "a non communist coup d'état" in Iran to install a "dictator" who would promote UK oil interests, declassified files show.

A St. Louis County woman was arrested after police claimed she repeatedly attacked two officers. Bystander video shows a much different scene -- instead showing the officers hitting HER. Yet prosecutors continue to press charges. New at @stlmag https://t.co/48ezXduqoJ
There’s an anti-war action at the DNC on Thursday the 22nd. Here’s my official stance on voting for Harris. Not going to argue genocide.

🚨This will be the last post we share here.
We believe there is no point in telling our human stories anymore; everyone has grown accustomed to seeing us killed. It's no longer worth the risk to send our voice out to a world that is content with mere solidarity. Even many of our human stories no longer interest people (even our voice is being ignored).
It's time to stop waiting for a savior and to help ourselves survive.
Please try to keep us in your prayers.
“The Israeli army is carrying out a systemic policy of torturing the roughly 10,000 Palestinians currently held in Israeli custody … In the United States’ Guantanamo Bay detention camp, nine prisoners were killed in twenty years; in Israel, it’s sixty detainees in ten months.”
BREAKING: spread the word. The Melbourne Symphony Orchestra #MSO just canceled a musician because he played a piece dedicated to Palestinian journalists killed in #Gaza in his previous performance. This is the email they sent to those who wished to attend his upcoming concert in two days on why they cancelled him: "During Jayson Gillham's performance yesterday (Sunday 11 August) Mr Gillham made a series of introductory remarks prior to giving the world premiere of the Conor D'Netto piece Witness, a late addition to the advertised programme.
Witness was accepted for performance at the request of Mr Gillham on the basis that it was a short meditative piece. Mr Gillham made his personal remarks without seeking the MSO’s approval or sanction. They were an intrusion of personal political views on what should have been a morning focused on a program of works for solo piano.
The MSO does not condone the use of our stage as a platform for expressing personal views. Mr Gillham will not be performing in the advertised concert with the MSO this Thursday night at Melbourne Town Hall. Customers will be advised of this change to Thursday's program as soon as possible.
The MSO was at no point made aware of the content of the remarks Mr Gillham was intending to make. They were made completely without authority.
The MSO understands that his remarks have caused offence and distress and offers a sincere apology. It has been a priority for us to address this difficult situation today.
The MSO’s values are Respectful, Collaborative, Innovative and Diverse and they are at the heart of what we do and how we act. They guided why we accepted the work to be performed, and why we’ve acted as a result of the unauthorised statements. Music brings people together and that is why one of our guiding principles is “We unite our individual strengths and celebrate our unifying love of music, fostering understanding and belonging”. In standing for humanity and peace we seek for every one of our performances to be a welcome and safe place for all"
Yours in music,
Melbourne Symphony Orchestra #Palestine #Israel #Gaza_genocide
