A screenshot of a Facebook post where a person named Andy ask the Well now “What the hell is transgender?” The Royal Canadian Air Force account response with “That’s a pretty big question asked in a pretty small way, Andy. ‘Transgender’ putting describes someone whose gender – who they know themselves to be – doesn’t match the sex they were assigned at birth. It’s not new, and it’s certainly not a fad. People have lived this experience for as long as people have existed; we’re just finally talking about it openly. You don’t have to fully understand it right away, most learning takes time, but we can always start from a place of respect. That’s how decent folks handle things they’re still getting used to.”

Massive shoutout out to whoever handles the Royal Canadian Air Force’s social media account. They responded to every single comment on their already very solid Trans Day of Remembrance post and they responded like this…

Lessons fr NSW Biodiversity Offsets Scheme incl #PayToDestroy
👎when devs only required to 'consider' the Mitigation Hierarchy, Avoid gets ignored & gov regulator has no clue
👎Trust managing offset obligations of devs has excessive flexibility & discretion
👎public effectively derisking private devs

The surviving Palestinians in the "red zone" will of course remain imprisoned—persecuted and tortured and starving and dying among the devastation—at the behest of their oppressor, and Israel will continue to murder and kidnap Palestinians at will.

At least 680,000 dead, for this.

The so-called "peace plan" will lock-in a new form of occupation under the guise of stabilization & reconstruction.

And this is what the genocide is all about. Illegally occupying the "green zone" where they'll build lavish homes, motels/hotels, retail for Israelis & tourists.

Trump’s ploy at the UN is American imperialism masquerading as a peace process The Trump administration is pushing an Israeli-crafted resolution at the UN Security Council aimed at eliminating the possibility of a State of Palestine.

"If it weren’t so utterly tragic, it would be laughable. As Marx said, history repeats itself, first as tragedy, then as farce. Yes, the proposal is farce, yet Israel’s genocide is not. It is tragedy of the first order."

Trump Boat Bombings Take Dark, Unnerving Turn with Leaked Memo Stunner A new Trump administration memo argues that those carrying out the boat attacks can’t be prosecuted. Why? Because the administration says so!

Trump's illegal murders in the Caribbean just got worse. An internal DOJ memo on the bombings says the victims are waging war on the US, but per NYT, it extensively cites the WH's *own claims* to this effect as evidence!

It gets even darker than that. 1/

Remember how everyone thought Hilary Clinton had overstepped the mark by calling Trump supporters deplorables and the media went on about it for weeks?

Michael is my neighbor and a wonderful, courageous person. When Nazis left anti-Semitic leaflets on people’s cars, he organized a neighborhood sign-making session and led people in posting the signs communicating our solidarity against hate.

These crooks are all getting incredibly wealthy from our suffering

A draft report commissioned by the WA gov referenced "significant risks" from gas which were removed in the final version, according to the ABC.

"It really is climate denial for Roger Cook to suggest the more gas exports WA has, the better it is for the climate."

Cleaning worker who mistakenly went to wrong home fatally shot: Police The shooting victim died from a gunshot wound to the head, the coroner's office said.

Still thinking about this story. Imagine how cooked your brain has to be on Fox News -- how terrified you have to be, every day in your isolated suburban castle -- to start *shooting* when you see brown people at your door, before the door is even open. We're such a nation of terrified cowards.

Israeli soldiers speak out on killings of Gaza civilians IDF soldiers tell documentary of opening fire unprovoked and arbitrary designations of who was an enemy

www.theguardian.com/world/2025/n...

Guardian analysis in August of the IDF’s intelligence data showed that by the reckoning of Israeli military officials, 83% of those killed in Gaza were civilians, a historic high for modern conflicts, though IDF disputed the analysis.
& still we supplied weapons

Senators on the brink of retirement who lived full, wealthy lives and never feared the loss of their own healthcare voting for their constituents to die from their inability to afford the same is treasonous

Truth matters:

Weird headline from our ABC:
Weasel words:

“Israel says ceasefire & aid will resume after dozens killed in air strikes”

Should be:

*Israel minorly pauses ongoing #genocide after it murders dozens of innocents with illegal bombing airstrikes

"Israel killed 14-year-old Faris Odeh 25 years ago today. This photo was taken 10 days earlier.

"For decades, they’ve tried to convince you that children throwing rocks are the problem and not the occupying force that murders them."

Mamdani should make a compulsory acquisition of Trump Tower and turn it into housing for the homeless with a state run grocery store on the ground floor
