Famine in Gaza is a "choice" made by Israel, says Alex de Waal, author of "Mass Starvation: The History and Future of Famine."

Black People Were Enslaved in the US Until as Recently as 1963 White landowners enslaved black Americans for at least a century after the Civil War.

very sadly people were enslaved in the American south on plantations up until the 1960s btw. Outside of a more cult like situation I mean. www.livescience.com/61886-modern...

It's the time of year when I really miss walking along the Rideau & Ottawa river. It is so beautiful there you have no idea. Ontario kind of looks like a greyish brown parking lot covered in wet grey slush that somehow costs 2 million dollars for most of the year, but damn that place is gorgeous.

The Spanish Navy said Wednesday it is sending the warship Furor to protect the Gaza-bound Global Sumud Flotilla after activists said drones had attacked their boats near Greece. This comes after Italy earlier committed to sending navy vessels to escort the flotilla.

@erincorbett.bsky.social the slug one

lol what

yesssss agree!!

ok so they've pressured Disney to remove Jimmy Kimmel, are they just not smart enough to pressure Disney to take down Andor?

I really hated weapons I think. I think it said nothing except old people with cancer are gross and suspicious possibly? And had a very visceral violent scene of a gay man's skull being bashed in. So that's a no for me buds. I don't think horror has to mean anything, but like ew.

I'm really in love with my new local library, but I cannot understand why the community centres are in constant disrepair and the public programming/ fitness program is run so very poorly, with so few spots available for classes etc. Please stop spending all our money on the police @toronto.ca

Glad to have found a physical copy of this, it's a really compelling and candid interview with Wendy Carlos' about being trans in the 70s, I recommend any trans person to read this and be reminded how for everything that changes, a lot stays the same.

it's always a weird threat of being left behind lol. Why not just try to sell me something I might actually want instead of trying to twist my arm. I don't want to live in the shitty world these cowards have in mind.

ngl kinda don't at all like how lgbtq friendly travel is usually just code for - this is fun for gay cis men and sometimes maybe lesbians. I mean I get it, they're the ones with money I guess.. but like it's annoying.

best part of the lighthouse was the giant cool mermaid vagina.

not just in interpersonal relationships, but also at work. It's manipulative pick up artist type behaviour, and you don't have to put up with it. Your value is not something someone else can grant back to you, actually.

Some grifter behaviour: ppl who talk a lot aren't smarter, sometimes they are trying to overwhelm you & reduce your ability to think. Ppl who neg you/ threaten your sense of self worth are not then the only ppl capable of granting it back to you with scraps of attention, affection, etc.

omg they were writing about the concept of dead internet theory in cyber punk novels 30 years ago of course it was possible wtffff

I don't care how can someone please get this on his desk before it's too late, get Jamie Clayton as Christine Jorgensen, idk who can be Magnus Hirschfeld. Lewis Black? Idk

There's so many fucking biopics of all the wrong dudes, why are you telling the boring dramatic saga of a famous rock star when you could be casting Danny DeVito as Harry Benjamin, founder of WPATH, in a historical comedy biopic about Sex Change Operations

been receiving a lot of it lately tbh

that's nuts.. Taylor Swift is richer than like God at this point. Why on earth would they do that?

you know I like my job, but every day I'm a little bit angrier that people I love just wouldn't have to work so much if the EXTREMELY wealthy didn't hoard as much.

Earlier today in Ottawa, Pride was cancelled by Capital Pride (the official organization hosting Ottawa's Pride Parade). They tried blaming Queers for Palestine Ottawa.

The very same parade was uncancelled by Queers for Palestine, who then continued to lead — now without any police protection.

ngl not doing super hot rn.

YouTube video by Netflix MENA The Perfection | Official Trailer [HD] | Netflix

The movie Tar really captured how annoying classical music culture is, and how dumb conducting is, and how we give a lot of power to people for honestly no good reason because we have decided what they do is important, when it's basically not. Also good movie about classical music: the perfection.
