Quote by George Jackson which reads: “Settle your quarrels, come together, understand the reality of our situation, understand that fascism is already here, that people are already dying who could be saved, that generations more will live poor butchered half-lives if you fail to act. Do what must be done, discover your humanity and your love in revolution.” with the text in the style of magazine cut-outs.

The Palestinian photojournalist who Israel killed an hour ago, Yahia Barzaq, was a newborn photographer.
I’m sharing here some of his photography.

It was hard to miss the story about the what Melbourne CBD's anti-genocide protests allegedly costs in police resources.

We look into who 'broke' that story, where that figure came from, the timing of the release of such a figure and how outlets like the ABC ran with it with little interrogation

"We're standing here for a bit. I want to make sure that everyone understands that every single organisation is complicit if it does not cut ties with Israel"

breaking news: mainstream media cares way more about the death of one (1) conservative influencer than the entire population of Palestine who are facing genocide at the hands of Israel

Israeli settlers are attacking Palestinians and their homes in the West Bank, unchecked and with impunity.
These acts of violence are thuggish and inhumane.
The silence of the international community is a disgrace.
Shame on this world.

I’m sharing a Palestinian account every day and today is Darin. Darin was studying business administration and her husband Fesal was studying accounting. Darin gave birth to their little girl Lareen during the war. They’ve lost everything and Lareen was injured by shrapnel recently. They need help ❤️

a screenshot of an Fortune article about Mark Zuckerberg giving noise-cancelling headphones to his neighbours as he flouts local regulations with construction. The screenshot features a disclaimer that the article's initial draft was created by AI and then edited by a human.

the irony of using technology which is destroying our environment to create an article about billionaires flaunting local regulations

Antipoverty Centre: stop the harm and suspend Centrelink debt activity. The Antipoverty Centre has also responded to the the government announcement it will waive some of the unlawful income apportionment debt, but says that doesn't deliver in the promise to implement the Robodebt Royal Commission recommendations. It wants the government to work with it for more meaningful reforms to ensure no one else is harmed. Antipoverty Centre spokesperson and JobSeeker recipient Jay Coonan said: It is a relief to see the government beginning to take some action in response to its unlawful debt recovery, but we know these changes will not protect poor people from the harm done by debt raising and collection practices. They do not go anywhere near implementing the Robodebt Royal Commission recommendations that the government committed to two years ago. It should not have taken so long and it should not have taken so much work by welfare recipients and advocates for this progress to be made. The government must work with welfare recipients to make bigger changes that will ensure we are safe, and have stability and control over our lives. This must include the reintroduction of the 6 year time limit on debt recovery, which is glaringly absent from this announcement.

Nothing the government has announced can adequately compensate for the distress, wasted time, financial strain & other impacts of being pursued for unfair debts over such a long period.

That is all.

With news of further bombings of hospitals in Gaza overnight, Jewish Council executive officer @sarahschwartz.bsky.social explains that this is deliberate, this is a campaign of targeted killings of journalists and we need to take action and end the two-way arms trade with Israel now.

the fact that bluesky are banning Palestinians' accounts is so disgusting. it makes me not want to even be on this platform anymore. God I'm so sick of jumping from one at-first-hopeful platform to another when they inevitably turn to shit

Israel bombs Khan Younis hospital, killing journalists and rescue worker Initial bombing hits the upper floor of Nasser hospital, followed by a strike on response teams attempting to rescue the wounded

BREAKING: Workers at Yosemite and Sequoia-Kings Canyon National Parks just won their union elections.

They are the first national parks to unionize in several years.

If I went to a funeral a day for every Palestinian child killed in this Israeli genocide, I would spend all the days of my 58 years at funerals.

The Pro-Israel "Combat Antisemitism Movement" is funding councillors to go to the Gold Coast.
