Francesca Albanese tells the world there has not been a single day of ‘ceasefire’ in Gaza 🇵🇸:
‘There is no ceasefire for Palestinians 🇵🇸’
‘Ceasefire’ is a word for people to remain indifferent to the suffering’
‘We won’t let them remain in their comfort zone’
Free Palestine 🇵🇸

FFS. Now the baby has it. 5 months old & the poor kid has Covid. 😡 Bloody daycare centres are germ incubators; The 3yo got sick Tuesday night, so she definitely picked it up there.
My DIL has just tested positive for Covid & I spent most of the day with them yesterday. 😭 Crossing everything in the hope I’ve avoided it.

#Victorians! Our State Library is being trashed by a series of executives with no experience or understanding of public collections. Many hired as 'temps' without full process, who then caused scandals & exodus of specialist & librarian staff: a full wreck looms. www.theage.com.au/national/vic...
State Library proposes major cuts to staff and services
The library plans halve the number of reference librarians it employs and reduce the number of computers available for public use in a move that has outraged staff.

I haven’t seen this get covered in English yet so let me translate.
Grok is saying that the crematories at Auschwitz’s were conceived as disinfectant chambers, not mass execution and that the law has made it taboo to acknowledge that this is what they were
X is a Nazi site. Get off the Nazi site.
