Massive protest in Australia today demanding an end to starvation and genocide in Gaza and calling for sanctions and a weapons freeze against Israel.
Official estimates puts the crowd size at 90k, but the images I’m seeing look more like there were hundreds of thousands of participants.

Look, just… don’t pick up a pigeon egg that’s fallen off its grimy little underside. Leave the festering orb of regret alone. Because the moment you do, you will be imbued with the stench of Satan's compost bin, and that pigeon will stare at you quizzically, like the stupid ape that you are.

The Town of Farmington gives garden plot priority to people who have had plots in prior years.
OK, but what about the residents who live in housing without greenspaces?
Why isn't this taken into consideration on the application?
Questions I'll also bring up at the next town hall meeting.

These little morsels are divine. I want to scale them up next time to 2" diameters.

Mom wanted some Dave's Killer Bread. She calls it her poop bread. She can't afford it, so I made her KA's super seed loaf.
Loverly bread. Happy gut.

It’s important to know that a lot of productive activity is happening in person and offline, too.
Not all of it can be broadcast online, but we’ve had hundreds of people showing up to our trainings, mobilizations, and more.
Keep going. Tyranny is eroded by a sea of small acts. Everything matters.

My go-to happy track. The video is lovely, as well. It seeped into my subconscious in the 80s when I was a babe.

The artist's estate reps, as well as the NPG, have a lot to account for.
"The most referenced theory for this repositioning is that it attracts the upper echelon of richer buyers and museums, who have historically been more interested in straight white male artists."

Many of us turned to baking during Covid lockdown, but I couldn't. I literally had no kitchen for over a year. Now that I have access to a kitchen, baking sounds like a good way to ride out the 4 year nazi nutsy cuckoo pandemic. That, and reading books and punching nazis.

Get off of it! Since when have they cared about womens safety in sport or in general. No, they're uncomfortable with trans folk existing. They'll try everything in their power to erase them from the communities that thrive with mutual love and respect for one another.

You can get an out of state card for your household for $85 (sign up online too). I realize this is expensive for many people, but if you can afford it we can help prevent the library, a source of factual information about our world, from going dry.

(2/2) Several OR cities are dealing with this due to property tax compression from taxes passed in the 90s, but no other city of Salem’s size in OR has even THOUGHT about shuttering their libraries. City Manager and Council seem all for funding the cops though!!
