In war, civilians suffer, while the rich line their pockets.
Oil profits are up. Weapons companies are booming.
Meanwhile, schools and hospitals get bombed, and thousands die.
War makes billionaires and their corporations even richer. Itβs just another business model for them.

Interestingly it's

The Sydney Swans season starts tomorrow night. I'll be there but remain unimpressed with the departure of Wil Hayward and Ollie Florent. The way it was handled with them, the flippant comms to members was uncharacteristic of the Swans I thought I knew.
Should be excited but feel flat

It's been commonplace all my life, same as crockery, cutlery - just collective nouns for those household items
Sadly I think we're losing diversity and richness of language. Sometimes I hear a word not in common use anymore and I think wow, that's really spot on π

No surprise, it's usually intergenerational. Think of the worst bullies, often replicating what they've seen/experienced themselves.
Words were women's fists, often punching down to feel better about themselves

With this thread, I feel a big rock concert/festival coming on... π€£
Seriously though, maybe we need one - Harmony Day??
I think we're overdue, it could celebrate a 'No Dickheads / FFS' vibe
