Maldives bans Israelis from entering country, in protest against Gaza's 'ongoing genocide'
The ban was done in 'resolute solidarity with Palestinians' and also applies to dual citizens

This stunning white pagoda built by King Bagyidaw in 1816 is one of my favourites and so iconic that Lonely Planet even used it for a cover.
It is one of multiple pagodas destroyed by the Myanmar earthquake.

A black #tesla #swastikar covered in Punisher logos with a personalised Belgian number plate saying HELLFEST just zoomed past us on the E411 to Liège. Funny what some idiots think looks cool these days. 🙄

Before I left the Philippines for this two-month trip to India, some dear cis male friends felt it was their duty to warn me: the misogyny is terrible in India, dangerous even. Such warnings were vague. Misogyny is misogyny as “Rose is a rose is a rose is a rose,” I suppose? Please #read on…

There's been a shocking amount of misogyny and casual racism in the food world for as long as I can remember. It's become so normalised, folks don't even notice anymore. Dump both Wallace and Torode, the arrogant twats. No shortage of decent, better-qualified presenters to fill their shoes.

Reminder that years ago, I cooked at an event for Gregg Wallace, who said my name was silly and proceeded to call me "You-You" for the rest of the day.

In our house we have always referred to the BBC's MasterChef series as "Shut Up, Gregg."
I hope they take him off the air forever.

Peace depends on holding those responsible for these crimes accountable — both inside and outside of Israel.
There can be no justice without accountability, and there can be no peace without justice — that’s just silencing the oppressed.
We must not stop until Palestine is free

Yup. These days I have almost nothing in common with my siblings/peers who are into bible study and golf, listen to Michael Bublé, stay silent on genocide and hate that I write fuck without the asterisk. I don't miss them.

The Archers, from a non-British perspective: anxious, occasionally fractious country folk who spend an awful lot of time gossiping, insisting they're fine and apologising to each other.

Ah no, I thought it was blathershite all this time.
Blatherskite [BLATH-er-skahyt]

-One who speaks overmuch without saying anything of importance or without making much sense
-One who blathers on and on
“That blatherskite really needs to stop talking before he gets himself into some truly serious trouble!”
