A Little Owl (mochuelo in Spain, mussol in Catalan) kindly sent by Lucy Brzoska. It had flown down to inspect these items left by gardeners working in the Fossar de la Pedrera, Montjuïc, the mass grave of the victims of the Franco regime in Barcelona. Like a surrealist painting.

If this ceasefire happens - and I hope it does - Western media will talk about 'peace'. This will be inaccurate. What they will mean is 'quiet', a reversion to the background level of violence that Palestinians have faced for decades. Peace can only come with the end of the occupation and apartheid.

We’re calling on the government to introduce a National Climate Disaster Levy. A Levy like this would force the fossil fuel exporters, the companies that are causing this damage, to pay their fair share – not everyday Australians.

Brown’s deal with the Trump administration throws trans folks and DEI work under the bus. It puts people in harms way in the name of keeping Jewish students safe.
I reject this from the bottom of my Jewish soul. There is no safety for me without safety for we. This isn’t justice.

Glad to have been quoted in this @alexagagosz.bsky.social article by on Brown's disgusting capitulation to the Trump administration.
I remain in solidarity with all the students, staff and faculty impacted by this horrendous decision.
Unpaywalled in next skeet.
