As we wrap up another Trans Awareness Week filled with celebration and pride, let’s take a moment to observe a more solemn occasion - Trans Day of Remembrance. Today we honour & remember those who have tragically lost their lives to transphobic violence, discrimination and hate.

UN approval of Gaza β€˜Stabilisation Force’ slammed as β€˜Denial of Palestinian self-determination’ CodePink said the plan β€œwill leave Palestine in the hands of a puppet administration, assigning the United States, which shares complicity in the genocide, as the new manager of the open-air prison.”

β€œCodePink saidβ€”that β€œthe resolution, while disguised as a peaceful and humanitarian proposal, is in reality a blueprint for the internationalisation of the Israeli occupation and a complete denial of Palestinian self-determination”.”

CodePink is not alone.

The $9tn cost to Australians: how a β€˜misrepresented’ figure on net zero took on a life of its own A network of climate academics called Net Zero Australia say the actual cost of building a low-carbon energy system to Australians would be about $300bn

Spending $300bn to secure $9tn in investment upgrading infrastructure across the entire economy would match the scale of the climate crisis and rebuild the economy for the 21st century. Instead of talking about opportunity we're stuck fact checking bullshit. www.theguardian.com/australia-ne...

Aboriginal teen mistakenly pulled from bus at gunpoint after 'racial profiling' The family of a 17-year-old Indigenous boy says he was racially profiled when he was pulled from a Canberra bus by police officers who handcuffed him before realising he was the wrong person.

'The family said they were heartbroken by the incident but determined for change.

"We are here because we want answers, we want accountability, and we want real, immediate change to ensure no other First Nations child is ever treated like this again," they said.'

Warsaw / Gaza
For every Nazi soldier killed by the Jewish resistance in Warsaw, the Germans murdered 50 Jews. For every Israeli killed on Oct. 7, the the IDF has murdered at least 60 Gazans.
The "only democracy in the Middle East" is a bloodthirsty barbaric terrorist state.

The continuing crisis in the Liberal Party For the Liberals to rebuild, they need to confront a truth they’ve refused to acknowledge: the party has been captured by agents of chaos who have nothing to offer.

Not sure if it should be titled β€œthe continuing crisis in the Liberal Party” or β€œthe end of the Liberal Party” but, either way, it’s bad news for the LNP. And they don’t deserve to be anywhere near government. Latest New Politics analysis. #AUSPOL open.substack.com/pub/newpolit...
