Israel has officially come out in support of Russia. Netanyahu brags about being in daily communication and coordination with Putin. Israel is also invested in attacking the EU due to Europe still upholding international law and the ICC.

i see a lot of people, frustrated with tech, wanting to "go analog" or give up on tech. i totally get it! a lot of tech we use right now sucks. but my 2026 wish/resolution is to put more energy towards figuring out how we can wrest control of tech from a powerful few and find ways to use it for good

Stop looking the other way and then demanding a gold star because you don’t assault women.
That can’t be the bar anymore.
Not assaulting us isn’t good enough.
We need you to fight for us. To call out your fellow man. To fight rape culture & patriarchy. To demand better.

To express his disdain for balancing both sides of a one-sided issue, Edward R. Murrow often quoted something Winston Churchill said to him, about how that would be like giving “equal time to Jesus and to Judas Iscariot.”
The greatest examples of investigative journalism don't adhere to balance.
They center ethically upon accuracy and veracity.
There's a difference.
Ida Tarbell never interviewed John D. Rockefeller for "The History of the Standard Oil Company."

Albo had already given $36.5 M plus free policing of Jewish schools & synagogues prior to the shooting.
I found the ABC'S coverage very anti-Albanese, as if he had pulled the trigger. PM Albanese has expressed his sorrow, regret, and offered condolences....but 'apologise'???
Wtf for??
Someone tell the LNP and associated media to stop politicising such a horrific crime.

What do we want? - "Social cohesion!"
When do we want it? - "Just after we finish booing our political opponents at a memorial service!"
That one might need a bit more work.
