So you're literally just window shopping for somewhere you don't have to treat people with respect and decency. No wonder you're being identified as a chud.
No tolerance for the intolerant.

It's like his politics start and end through/with violence.
I wish I could remember - there was an Italian word for it. Oh well.

In protest? This is pure spite and a straight out refusal to go through with the ceasefire they agreed to.
Fascist cunts.

I hope you touched wood after saying that.

Attacks?
What in the pearl clutching

Bin diving fruit/veg and the rest from local shops - it's very circumstantial but I'm honestly kind of shocked how well it's working out. I'm eating better than when I was spending three times as much.

Well that checks out.

And it's Australian - which means all it's staff are obligated by law to place backdoors into their software for essentially whoever asks provided they flash a badge. If you don't, it's a one way trip to gaol.
If you trigger a canary in the coalmine somewhere, gaol.
Speaking as one - don't trust Australians with your security. Ever.

That's the neat thing, he doesn't!

Agreed. Feels like grief whenever I think about it knowing the current trajectory, to be honest.

Which is why Jews across the world have said Israel is genuinely the greatest source of danger to them in terms of antisemitism - because it has linked its atrocities to their identity, regardless of their personal support.

Because Palestine is a multifaith, multicultural country and Israel is a colonial foothold & apartheid that is actively and systemically trying to erase both Palestine and Palestinians.
Resistance is justified, oppression is not.

Read the fourth, most recent IPCC report - it's essentially a metastudy synthesising a lot of hard science.
The picture is grim.

Sorry you don't like their tone but they're right.

Only if you're ethically bankrupt, or a liberal.

Cop is a distraction. A meeting to schedule a meeting to schedule proposing a plan for a potential framework to reduce the environmental impact of participating Nations.
Meanwhile, the planet is being killed by people with names and addresses.

We have had and continue to have a democracy. It may not be the form of democracy you like but no need to pretend otherwise.
- slave owners addressing their "uppity" plantation workers

There it is. The thinly veiled Islamophobia.

I doubt that's going to work in the Hague.

Thoughts on street art? (graff, murals, posters etc - and would you guys like to see bits of it posted here every now and again?)
Personally, I think it's a really cool craft - there's a lot of technique and know-how just to control a can properly, let alone to pull off a composed piece or calligraphy. Some people do learn their basics on the fly for sure but I think it's a gift to the public when writers are given space to perfect their art.
Calling it broadly cultural is a bit wanky in some respects, but I think it is! In some ways, I think it's similar to why here is so interesting. Given the risks of participating and the lack of any kind of tangible reward outside recognition from other people involved, this/it exists largely because people've decided they want it to; and I think that's a pretty special thing imo - especially as a niche in our cultural ecosystem.
Anyway, just a little enthusiastic rant - I think graff' and street art represent a really neat subsection of our cities latent underground 'come-as-you-are' DIY culture. We have a pretty strong tradition in this respect, but it's only really som

Twitter is looking to sue Meta for "stealing trade secrets" amongst other things regarding Threads. Could/would they also take aim at Mastodon?
Given that threads is aping Mastodon, could they come after front ends here? Or is this just megacorp slap fighting/ an unexpected (but maybe predictable) outcome of the Twitter staff purges?
