Shame! Read your Haggadah and reflect on what it means to be oppressed. Yes, there is antisemitism in the world but this is not it. Your lack of empathy does not represent us.

Beautiful autumn day for students fighting for human rights and justice for Gaza University of Melbourne. Next year in a better world.

The ghost of Le Corbusier is haunting Paris and trying to enact the Plan Voisin: first Notre Dame and now Moulin Rouge. theguardian.com/world/2024/apr…

Pretty beautiful to see university students reading from their haggadot in protest camps condemning genocide in Gaza and breaking matzoh with non-Jewish students committed to peace and making a better world.

One hand sanctions while the other gives congressional aid? That makes no sense. The cute $ off and stop WWIII. nytimes.com/2024/04/21/wor…

Prof Caitlin Zaloom on the trap of suburbia. A must read! newrepublic.com/article/178152…

Tik Tok is a threat to American national security but under Trump and Co ownership it will be a great way to communicate. Thanks again for the economic nationalism which is 30% lies, 50% narrow mindedness, and 20% real concern.

Preventing a bike lane to protect the rights of people to drive to the gym to use an exercise bike. My head is going to explode.

What if it's all photoshop? The whole family...Windsor...The wedding...the jubilee. All some guy behind the curtain like a 21st century Wizard of Oz.

The royal family is a bot.

So you can buy a long distance V/Line ticket online but you need to go have a physical piece of paper printed for you at Southern Cross. I thought it was 2024? Sad to live in a place that treats transit like being ten years behind is just fine.

Exactly. Given Australia's low population density & urban sprawl, profits should be lower, not higher. Especially as truck drivers are often sub-sub-
contractors & last mile delivery costs have been pushed onto gig workers via partnerships with Uber and Doordash Richard Denniss

Thoughts and prayers again in the US, where a culture of violence and gun fanaticism knows no end.
