I kinda need someone to buy this for me so I can frame it. 🤔

Meta is an unethical company run by Peter Thiel’s techno-fascist billionaire protégé—Mark Zuckerberg—and is part of the Trump regime’s surveillance state.

It’s time to leave Facebook, Instagram, and WhatsApp—and while you’re at it, drop Amazon, Google, and OpenAI as well.

Why Does Elon Musk Have Such a Straight View of Antiquity? Musk and other conservatives often omit the role of queer soldiers in ancient military successes when extolling the virtues of Greek warriors.

See, a dysfunctional selection for a dysfunctional category. It all came together! Hope your Australian listeners are happy either way.

Hmmm. One of these is still an Anglophone text, just saying. 🤔

Other than lusophone authors, I’d love to see a nod to Latin America literature - Borges or Marques - and my favourite, Marguerite Yourcenar.

As I know my choices are probably not the most likely to be read, Master and Margarita is a great one, and also Susskeind’s “The Perfume”.

This is all I want to talk about today.

Te Pāti Māori MPs to be temporarily suspended from Parliament over haka MP Hana-Rawhiti Maipi-Clarke faces a seven-day suspension for her actions.

Hey world, remember when you thought this was awesome? (Which, by the way, it was). Yeah well she's been suspended for a week now because of it; it's coloniser rules and forms of expression allowed only, indigenous people must only be angry in white ways.

In a reasonable world, these statements wouldn't be considered anti-Christian but Rubio definitely thinks of them that way:

-- The meek shall inherit the earth.
-- God and Christ are always superior to Trump.
-- Judge not, lest ye be judged.
-- It's very difficult for the rich to enter Heaven.
