Palestinian children being starved to death by Israel
83 year old priest being arrested for protesting Israel starving children to death
40 years since Live Aid, when the world was moved by scenes of children starving to death.
We are all Palestine Action 🇵🇸
ICE just arrested Brad Lander, the NYC Comptroller and one of the leading candidates for Mayor, without grounds.
He was conducting routine immigration court work, escorting individuals from hearings.
He asked ICE for their warrant - well within his legal rights.
This is political intimidation.

Tiny little gloves in Trump's case
Musing further, there are a bunch of clever aspects
FIRST checking Ashford *is a v good call* - it has an amazing and large terminal (so as to decrease pressure on St Pancras), and @dicconspain.bsky.social will 😍 it!
SECOND Milano makes sense for maintenance beyond what you can do at Temple Mills
The simple truth is that Trump believes that, if we send money to a county in exchange for stuff, we've just lost because now they have our money
1. We contacted the 100 largest American companies and asked a simple question:
Do you support the tariffs announced by President Trump on April 2?
These are tariffs that have already destroyed trillions of shareholder value
NOT ONE COMPANY WOULD ANSWER THE QUESTION
🧵 NEW: Is Britain really a high tax country?
Our collective tax bill is at its highest share of GDP since the 1940s
But actually, the tax and NI paid by the average worker are at their lowest in decades.
What’s going on?

Exactly
The NYT spent 2.5 hours interviewing a group of 5 Palestinian political analysts. This piece is the condensed result.
It conveyed, to me, a sense of bleak directionlessness & absence of agreement amidst the sheer struggle to survive.
The sound of an Israeli drone in Gaza concluded the discussion.
5 key Arab states—the UAE, Saudi, Jordan, Qatar & Egypt—sent this letter to Rubio “unequivocally” condemning Trump’s endorsement of ethnic cleansing.
It won’t happen. But it will distract from Trump’s domestic power grabs, juice up Hamas & put Americans at more risk of terrorism
The numbers on Brexit are only going to keep moving in one direction. Disappointing that public opinion and the growth imperative isn't pushing Labour to rid itself of its caution with the EU
I’m 10,000 followers from getting as many followers here as I ever got on Twitter. Thanks, everyone. I don’t deserve it, but I’ll keep trying.
Bar chart displaying per capita CO2 emissions for 2021. The United States shows significantly higher emissions at 14.86 tons, compared to low-income countries, which have emissions of 0.28 tons. Land use change is not included.
In thinking about what rich nations owe the developing world, here’s something to keep in mind:
The average American emits more CO₂ in one week than an average person in low-income countries does in one year.
The Onion be spot-on

I’ll tell you another delight here, flipping between ‘following’ and ‘discover’ and finding delight either way. As opposed to finding ‘STOP THE BOATS’ and then ‘STOP THE BOATS AND BURN THEM.’
What @bsky.app needs is a clearer verification process for organisations and media. Strongly suspect that is what is stopping those big beasts coming here - but if that is provided I can totally see this App eclipsing Twitter for good.
people who use goodreads: jeff bezos owns goodreads and if you want a better alternative there is a black woman owned company called storygraph that you can use to replace it. you can transfer all of your data from goodreads to storygraph and have your mind be free of trumpie jeff bezos! win win. 💙
And it couldn't have happened to a more odious site.
Thank you, Bluesky.
