On Monday, a man threw a homemade bomb into a crowd of First Nations families and allies, and we get: a reluctance from police and media to call it an act of domestic terrorism, the attacker’s identity suppressed to protect *his* safety, and some empty platitudes from politicians.

www.youtube.com/watch?v=y-37... it flew under my radar from 2024 but Universal Language is a very funny, very clever little film. the hardest i've laughed at a movie in years comes from a repeated cut-reverse cut gag. barely 90 minutes and a cheap streaming rental, you have no excuses

We are horrified and shaken in the wake of the mass shooting at a Chanukah event in Bondi this evening, which has left at least ten people dead and injured many more.
This is the first night of Chanukah when we gather with loved ones and friends to light the Chanukiah. 1/4

you can either choose to be the FM radio host who advocates for teens to be kicked off social media or the FM radio host who advocates for harsher criminal sentencing. those are the only two options as far as I'm aware
