It's almost as if, before the Gaza famine was officially recognised, it was a story, as media organisations could generate controversy by hosting Israeli government spokespeople and our own rightwing blowhards, insisting it was all a fabrication. Now that it can no longer be denied ... no story.
A month ago, the famine in Gaza, deliberately created by the Israeli government, was officially confirmed by UN agencies. Since then, there has been an eerie silence in the media here, with far fewer reports than there were before. But it hasn't ended. On the contrary, it has intensified.

An eye-watering 34% increase in illicit drug consumption between 2023-24. Even more concerning, drug expenditure also actually decreased over that period. In other words, illicit drugs are getting cheaper.

We explore how identity fusion—where personal & group identities merge—can help explain violence, loyalty, & desistance.

I see lots of pics a beautiful birds on here and thank you for them.
For those of you who are interested in birds, I recommend the free “Merlin Bird ID” app. A friend introduced me to it and it is wonderful. It uses your phone’s mic to identify bird calls near you and teaches you about each bird.
