Let's unpack this Marilyn.
You're not a colonist settler living on stolen land of a massacred people because (wait for it) your family have been living on stolen land for 5 generations.

I thought you said it 'always was always will be' Aboriginal land; now it's yours.

I live in my country of origin, unlike most fake Izreali's I am 5th generation and that first generation always worked with the indigenous people with their farming, my country is Australia and my family came here in 1848 - 100 years before fakerael was ever heard of

What we know from previous resistance is that every individual effort counts.
Don't use Facebook.
Don't use Twitter (X).
Don't buy from Amazon.
Boycott those who enable fascism.
Dress as a frog.

Hamas kills 33 people in Gaza as they seek revenge.

Not as widely reported as it should be - Palestinians living in fear of further reprisals.

All people deserve to live in peace.

Stop flying them. It's not compulsory. If it's for work surely you can change the airline. If it's for personal, perhaps you just like to play the victim?

If you’re discussing UK guitarists then you’re missing some of the best - Rory Gallagher, Andy Powell, Ted Turner, George Harrison, Mick Ronson, Alvin Lee ..

Treated myself to Stranglers Best of, only because the singles were starting to sound like they’d been played in a thousand dodgy group houses by people not totally in control.

It’s ironic how the same people lamenting the destruction of America’s legal systems are also convicting people on social media without any direct evidence.

I taught at Uni for a few years. Last straw was a journalism student saying the swastika was the flag of the Soviet Union.

They probably produce current affairs TV for Murdoch media on huge salary 😟

John Logsdon @johnlogsdon.bsky.social · 2d

Sorry. That sounded snarky and condescending. I’m also appalled at the lack of critical thinking. I just meant that you might be surprised how little those things matter to getting a degree.

Also a great version by Ann-Margaret

(1966) Rare 'true' Stereo version by the Renegades (from Birmingham UK).

"Last night I was dreaming, dreamed about the H-bomb
Well, the bomb went off and I was caught
I was the only man on the ground
There was a-thirteen women and only one man in town."

So true. How do be people earn university degrees when they are seemingly unable to undertake independent research?

They just post stuff they hear & claim it as fact. Explains Trump, I guess.

Got a Stanley Turrentine LP spinning, watching Prime Minister’s XIII football match & scrolling Blue Sky. And demanding cat getting attention too.

In 1921, famous Hollywood starRoscoe "Fatty" Arbuckle was accused of raping & killing silent film actress Virginia Rappe.

He was tried in court but never convicted.

His life was ruined.

Years later we find out she likely died from a medical condition.

Absolutely agree. Rewatched her Woody Allen films over past year and her comic timing and delivery is faultless

#DianeKeaton

Brad Hart @bradhartmusic.bsky.social · 3d

The Godfather and its sequel are very high on my list of all time fave films...but her comedic chops in those early Woody Allen films are just absolutely top tier.

Callie @trollingstones.bsky.social · 3d

Diane Keaton, one of the great dramatic & comic actors of all time.

She made us laugh in many Woody Allen films & brought gravitas to Godfather trilogy, among many quality roles.

Amazes me when women deny r*pe, especially when committed by gangs.

No matter what your views & beliefs, denialism is unconscionable.

But then Marilyn, you’ve never been there, or any conflict zone.

Just leafy suburban Adelaide.

It’s the plot from Three Body Problem - remove science and the Earth can’t progress.

And I read sci-fi as a distraction from reality 😵‍💫

So others know context, Marilyn has a history of threatening violence towards others, sending vile abuse & hate mail & has personal issues that’ve led to interventions.

Kindness, healing, giving are much better ways to be a good human.

Blocking now, back to Fillmore East

Adelaide’s favourite neo-Nazi, banned from entering govt offices after numerous altercations with politicians & their advisors.

Never met someone with so much hatred in her heart.
