The war isn't over. Israeli officials are already posting on social media that they're going to finish the job once the hostages are released. Israeli settlers are still attacking Palestinians. The IDF is still shelling West Bank. It's not over.

People forget that they also benefit from a lot of accessibility modifications. And that they'll appreciate the modifications are in place when (not if) they need them.

Palestinians returning to northern Gaza say they have no means to rebuild amid what they describe as indescribable destruction by Israeli forces, as limited aid trickles in but remains scarce, according to officials.

Spending 40 seconds talking about people returning to Gaza with no food or shelter and a few aid trucks starting to distribute food, then spending 10+ minutes talking about a state of the art hospital in Petah Tikva and interviewing settlers isn't "balanced reporting".

Good Morning!
Starting the week thinking about the birds. Vote here.

Excellent folks at Friends of Paganini and Food Trees for Black Cockatoos are both doing a great job in providing food and watering stations to support our local Karrakin.

The impact of a livable welfare safety net on this World Mental Health Day

I’ve written plenty before about how different aspects of Australia’s public health care and social welfare systems have helped or hindered my mental health. Getting DSP was a huge fact…

It's for their D&I stats. It shouldn't be a mandatory question, but should have a 'prefer not to answer'option.

This two-parter below is exactly why it's hard to make clothes in the United States.

Let's look at how much it costs to produce a button-up shirt in the US. 🧵

Someone on Twitter replies to me: "meh. buy american or stfu."

Two hours later, in a separate thread, the write: "$30 for a single button-up is ridiculous unless it is decent quality silk."

What about now?

Have @safety.bsky.app / @aaron.bsky.team reinstated @spacelawshitpost.me yet?

Link did nothing wrong. He is the backbone of the community and someone who brings hope and support to many in need on here. The way he's been treated is unforgivable.

Home again! Have @safety.bsky.app reinstated @spacelawshitpost.me yet?

@aaron.bsky.team this is getting a bit silly. We all know Link did nothing to deserve a permaban and y'all are probably sick of hearing about it so do the right thing, please.

Sometimes you just want to gab with your friends. Sometimes you just want to vent. Sometimes you just want to watch the pretty people pass by. You don't always want to defend your dissertation.
