Floyd, of the K floyds

East Berlin, Kronenstrasse, 31 July 1960. I post photographs taken on my many Berlin visits in the 1950s and 1960s. 180 unique historic street images of East and West Berlin are in my book "Berlin in the Cold War" (Amberley Publ.). #Berlin #GDR #DDR

I’m Australian. The Australian senate fails Australia every day that it continues to exist. The Australian senate caused the dismissal of an elected government by a viceregal drunk. The Australian senate prevented a carbon trading scheme being implemented. The Australian senate is a clown car

Well any tiny number of people can be "everyone" in a given space.
I assume the dresses didn't clap

Yeah, join the guys who propped up a Tory government and broke a major campaign promise. If that doesn't show how much you dislike Tories, nothing will

When you first heard me speak against this genocide, you heard my words as betrayal. But they were meant as love | Sarah Schwartz Not speaking would go against everything I was taught to honour: the righteous among the nations – those who refused to be bystanders to injustice

A letter to those who taught me my Jewishness, and who now sit on the other side of a deep chasm.

That's certainly what we're seeing now #rightnowism

Yeah, I remember how LEAN totally stopped Plibersek from approving any coal mines or gas fields and thwarted Murray Watt's attempt to extend the NorthWest Shelf, great work guys, if that's not success, what is?

Press release from Labor for Gambling Reform made me chuckle by talking about "successful internal Labor groups" like the Labor Environmental Activist Network.

Peter Hartcher describing a Japanese PM who denies war crimes, hangs out with actual Nazis, doesn't want women to be able to choose their own surnames after marriage or a female emperor as "conservative" .....is very Peter Hartcher

Groovy 'we're changing the future' tech companies are still capitalist companies

Gaza i ruiner

Israel is demolishing Palestine while families still live in the buildings. 200,000 razed to the ground by weapons of war - and thousands of families erased from existence by a massive, genocidal government intent on wiping out an entire people

Everything is awesome, apart from the things that could do with improvement.

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...

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! -->>>

Taylor Swift says she’s having a destination wedding - but she won’t say where (yet)

Does FAFO stand for Fuck Around, Find Out, or Fool Around, Find Out?
The latter sounds more like someone's afraid of swearing

This is Labour trying to be more sophisticated than the Coalition but doing the same thing. Coalition's excuse was "we're helping poor people in India", Labour is "we're building world peace"

Greta Thunberg will be in history books. never stop Greta. you are a beacon of hope. More guts than every leader in this world.

Amazing job by the presenter here.
Wonder how Robert Jenrick's rowback to "We want people living in mixed communities" means he wants some kind of houseswap with urban + rural Britain?
Are mostly white communities "living essentially ghettoised lives"?

Textbook drug dealer's defence (note: some drugs are good and cool)

You don't hear it about other harmful stuff ("If we didn't build and sell defective, deadly children's toys, others countries would just fill the gap, so we gotta do it")

Australian citizens have the right to return to Australia. Calling them 'Isis brides' does not change the law. They are Australian.

Actually Albo .. didn't Australia abstain from a ceasefire vote in Oct 2023, saying "We can affirm Israel's right to defend itself"?

Just saying bc your second last par says "consistently part of intl pressure for a ceasefire in Gaza"

Yeah Nayman, get a wriggle on
