if everyone before the courts was shown the same leniency as killer cops, we could shut down all the prisons.

anyway I had the privilege of listening to actual experts this evening. Three brilliant and indefatigable Palestinian women Lana Tatour, Randa Abdel Fattah and Paula Abood launch Race and the Question of Palestine (Tatour and Lentin 2025) at Gumbramorra Marrickville.
Randa, Lara and Paula on stage against a red backdrop. In the foreground a sign reading RACISM NOT WELCOME sits on an embroidered keffiye two middle aged white women (self and friend) holding up copies of Race and the Question of Palestine for a selfie. Bowl of traditional Palestinian sugar dusted biscuits.

the laughable idea that giving NSW Police more powers can solve social problems.

yup. They will shift seamlessly from how it was going to benefit humanity to how it was going to benefit humanity but damn the bubble burst. Meanwhile it in fact delivered billions to billionaires and caused extreme harm everywhere else.

they have a choice. Long term returns and not pumping up bubbles and avoiding crashes are better fund management.

They are not redeemable, they are not your friends, and if you would call the American police for any reason other than, "I literally have to because of a car accident or because there is a dead body here and I don't want to get in trouble," then we cannot be friends. That includes wellness checks.

Ive sat in on DV response training courses 4 cops & they spent the whole time shooting spitballs at the ceiling, making jokes about abusing their own spouses, arguing w the presenter in a "less a question more a comment" way, & the women bragging they were even harder on hysterical victims than men

Seeing many posts about how ICE isn't trained. That's not really the problem. The problem is what they were sent to do, not whether they're qualified to do it.

the answer to what it got wrong will also be wrong - and different every time. It is basically glorified predictive text programmed for engagement.

not to upset anyone but <people> have <feelings> this is a basic trait of our species. Organisations that demand feigned objectivity in the genocide are colonial to the core.

these journalists who compromise every fibre of their being to distribute Israeli propaganda about two years of livestreamed genocide across the west are definitely objectively “reporting” on the Trump 20-point plan right. No conflict of interests there. If journalists are not people.

Next month, the world's lesser bureaucrats will again make their annual pilgrimage to fancy hotels in an exotic place, to share platitudes and make vapid promises ... this time in Belém, Brazil, on the Baia de Marajó, actually an abandoned mouth of the Amazon.

I now allocate a tutorial to critical ai literacy, in the weeks before a major essay is due. Most students know the slop is slop, and quickly learn it is planet-boiling slop. If unis can not educate students about ai what the fuck is the point is my view.
