Soooooo ... I've started a Substack (y'know, in case the social media oligarchs and fascists get so bad that I have to delete some places)

I'll be discussing Books/Publishing/Culture/Me.

Hey - it could be worse; I could be starting a podcast! 😅 substack.com/@daniellebinks

“The instructions for whistles are very very simple:

If you see ice in the area, blow short bursts on the whistle.

If they're actively snatching someone, long blows.”
Yesterday I tried to put everything I knew about whistles—where to get them, where to get instruction sheets, how to distro—into one place so you can build off it for your own community's whistle needs: dansinker.com/posts/2025-1...

these legal principles could and should protect the nurses who are charged for words about an imaginary Israeli patient that were made public in a similar (at least allegorically) way to Brown being paraded around by NSW Police and amplified by pro-Israel media outlets.

Wildly unsurprised that only DropSite News has deep-dived into Jeffrey Epstein's extensive links to Israel with very Mossad-like machinations ... no major News outlet is similarly looking into this from the already-released cache.

Israel is a terror state.

The New York Times obit for Alice Wong doesn’t mention Covid or Gaza

It ignores two of her biggest causes because of political bias

Alice fought tirelessly for Covid mitigations

She fought for the people of Gaza

She rightfully reminded us that the genocide in Gaza is a disability justice issue

Why would Jeffrey Epstein kill himself in jail if he had this much leverage of the one person who could give him a full pardon?
