I told my tiny son that I love him and he swallowed his milk, looked me dead in the eye and said, "thank you."

Palestine Action Group has lost the legal challenge over this Sunday’s march. This does not mean the march is prohibited — it means that it will not have immunity for eg. obstructing traffic.

They should march to the Opera House anyway. Minns made it a symbol, so we should too.

You can't fix offsets, because they're not really broken

They are designed from the ground up as a way for polluters to falsify climate action, and for disgustingly rich bankers to divert funds away from frontline communities

As long as fossil fuels exist, offsets will exist

Good paper! -->>>
Are Carbon Offsets Fixable?
This article provides a systematic review of the literature on carbon offsets. A growing number of studies have found that the most widely used offset programs continue to greatly overestimate their p...

Damn. This is amazing. £325 per week, paid monthly, for 3 years - and the result was a profit for the Irish economy:

Post from Threads user rodneyowl: "Ireland has declared the Basic Income for Artists scheme permanent. This will be officially announced in tomorrow’s budget. Details to follow. Congratulations to all who fought for it and the present and future artists of all sorts in Ireland. That includes me 👌We’re just comin to the end of a 3 year pilot scheme. It’s been a roaring success. For every €1 paid out to the 2000 participants, the government got €1.46 back. Can’t argue with that. Other countries are already taking note."

Judge Diane Goodstein crossed the Trump administration last month. Yesterday, her home burned, her husband was injured and it's being investigated for arson.

The incongruence I am experiencing between *knowing* this this and still just going about my life is making me feel completely unhinged.

Whatever *this* is, system collapse, economic collapse, ecological collapse, social collapse, it is very clear we are in it. It's not starting. WE ARE IN IT.

ABC News had three separate stories on Palestine tonight. Not one single mention of the six Australians kidnapped and tortured by Israel.

Have you considered the theory of change though?
ellybaxter.bsky.social
Yeah the idea that some random guy in a cap can just arrest whomever is wild.

Not for the first time, Australian citizens have been illegally plucked from the sea and detained by Israel. Our government will do NOTHING. Remember, none of us matter to these ghouls.

New:
Labor’s climate policies are genuinely atrocious, yet Aus political commentators gave Albanese the big thumbs up for the quality of his announcement.
Time to inject a bit of reality into issue, instead of regurgitating Albanese’s talking points.
The media regurgitated Albo's PR, but there's no commendable 'middle path' on climate targets
The Albanese government sailed through its week of climate announcement, courtesy of media coverage that obsessed over the political fallout instead of the actual policy.

🚨 The Sumud flotilla is under attack in international waters.

The violent Israeli response, of drone and the violent naval attack, on an aid flotilla in international waters confirms the brutal illegality of Israel’s genocide in Gaza.

On the Gaza flotilla live stream, one by one, boats are intercepted by IDF & blasted with water cannons until comms are jammed & the feed for each boat goes down.

Israel is illegally kidnapping civilians on international waters, & they're preventing the world from witnessing.
