I thought that struggling to get my cart to the top of the hill was so hard, I might never make it. Then I thought of the donkey that pulls my cart...

Met Police raids Quaker meeting, 15 people arrested A Quaker meeting house has been raided by the Metropolitan Police while the group held a non-violence training session—up to no good, clearly

#Quakers are the most peaceful people I've ever encountered.

This kind of state brutality should not be tolerated.

We are citizens; we can prevent it if we choose to...

As #climatechange advances, there will be more refugees, fleeing war, but also a lack of water, food, and maybe shelter from the burning Sun and drought? Or floods...?

Rich countries like us cannot keep on trying to push this problem elsewhere; there is no longer an "elsewhere" for them to go.

I'm stunned to discover that Mahmood went up against Zack for saying and doing what she did a few years ago. Didn't she remember? 🙄

This is well worth the trouble of reading. It's Zack Polanski's reply to propaganda by Shabana Mahmood.

The reasons I seek
To be optimystique
evade me.

Who knows what fresh horror
We'll wake to tomorrer
In t'mornin'?

When I were young,
Hope tripped off the tongue.
No longer.

Btw, welcome to our community! 😀

I had to wait until 63 before I found out. At least you have more than half your life ahead of you, for you to benefit from your new knowledge. #AuDHD 😀

Sad that it turns into a sales pitch, right at the not-quite-end. 🤨

Then well done, you! 😀👍

Public speaking is impossibly difficult.
Unless the speaker is interested/invested in the subject.
Then, it's easy! 😀

As I see the Orange Warlord,
The Zionist Butcher,
And the Amazon tree-cutters,
I am flabbergasted.

Then I gaze at the world,
What we have left of it,
And I am calmed, even hopeful. 🌳
This makes me a fool, I suspect.

Trump — "Starmer is no Churchill". Well, except in the racist war criminal sense Trump mocked Keir Starmer as “no Churchill” — well he is if you look at Churchill’s colonial record and Starmer’s stance on Gaza

"Trump, ignorant of history, no doubt thinks of Churchill as a towering figure. But to much of the rest of the world, Churchill was a racist war criminal."

" #US and #Israel are showing the rest of the world that #capitalism does not create peace, but militarized states that turn people into consumables, #war into an industry, and #genocide into a business." 😭

"The minute a human becomes a soldier, they become a fast-moving consumer good in the war sausage factory..." 😮😥

Scary thoughts...

But we've all had them, yes? 😐

When it brings war and impacts on our economies, everyone regrets our dependency on fossil fuels.

When one mentions the prospect of billions of climate refugees and ultimately billions of deaths due to fossil-fuelled climate change, everyone is like "Meh" 🤷‍♂️

never felt deceived
every word glances away

Deceived I was
from the time I was born.
Deceptive you were
until I was grown.

Within a small mind
lived a small point of view,
locked within a stone
that was smaller still.

What he could not fathom
was that fated day
when I shed my skin
and spirited away.

Deception is our world and our lives.
I have been deceived many times,
And so have we all. It's what we do.
If someone has no reason to lie,
Those like me assume they're honest.
But they follow The Rule of our world,
And they deceive, uncontrollably.

"The legislation will need to be backed by effective enforcement, sustained investment in local public health services and continued support for smoking cessation once it becomes law."

Let's do it! [I'm a lifelong tobacco addict.]

"The patterns we have observed concerning Israel’s military conduct in Gaza indicate a systematic and organised campaign to destroy life, conditions necessary for life, and life-sustaining infrastructure."
