Israel is systematically clearing the people from Northern Gaza, currently in Beit Lahia. They are destroying everything that can sustain life, to serve two purposes: to kill/ethnically cleanse Palestinians, and to clear the land for upcoming settlements.

We Need to Cover Donald Trump Differently This Time
Every outrage and insult can’t be a five-alarm fire, as it’s critical for the media to stay focused on the most serious threats to America’s democratic institutions.

Trump’s picks are SO fucking ludicrous, starting to wonder if it’s not entirely by choice - maybe no-one with half a brain or any actual experience is willing to work for him?

I signed up to bluesky as soon as I could get an invite but it just didn’t seem to have the critical mass or engagement of Twitter. Until now! All my fave ppl that I follow are here and posting and I am LOVING it. Haven’t deleted X just yet but bluesky is where I’ll be from now on 🩵
Looks like that "Efficiency" appointment really increased the efficiency with which we are leaving Twitter
A tale of two platforms:
BlueSky user numbers have hit a new record high in recent days, while the number of people deleting their accounts on X/Twitter has rocketed 🚀

The Rudd speculation has been entirely manufactured by Sky news👇
Let’s not forget it was Rudd who initiated the 500,000 signature petition calling for an RC into Murdoch.
This is Rupert’s revenge, nothing more. Don’t give him the satisfaction.

Could Trump really fire Australian ambassador Kevin Rudd – and how big a deal would that be?
When one of Trump’s inner circle reposted Rudd’s congratulations with a gif of an hourglass, it could have been more than just empty bravado
