Canada’s largest private high school recently organized a genocide solidarity trip in which students cooked for Israeli soldiers. In a sane world, the school’s charitable status would be revoked.

Did Flash Gordon really save every one of us?

I know Freddie claims he did. As much as I love Freddie he also claims to be a champion and I never saw him compete in anything. Not as reliable a source as we assume. This could be fake news.

The woodland bank is looking lush at this time of year. I'm kind of proud of this little wasteland area that has become such a variety of green and flowers.

Sick chemist?

If you can’t tritium.

If you can’t helium.

If you can’t curium.

You gotta barium.

Biden threatened Israel with pulling military aid if it invades Rafah, but Israel is attacking anyway. It won't face consequences so long as Biden remains vague on what amounts to sufficient grounds for suspending military aid.

The mother hen on the allotment field now has only three babies. I'm sure there were around 9 or 10 a couple of weeks ago.
Stigg lets the birds roam free, he let the cockerel breed, he doesn't care if the birds or chicks live or die, he only got them to piss the council off. A dog killed a hen a few days ago, he laughed. He feeds them stale white bread and they have no shelter.
The council have told him to get rid of them, especially the cockerel but he won't.

An overhead shot of the downslope allotment from a raised perspective. I stood on the neighbours fence! Well, I've been digging over his area for him and getting access via the fence, so I took the opportunity.

The (Arctictis binturong), Plate X in Joseph Wolf's Zoological Sketches Vol. 2, London, 1867.
"A fine male specimen of the Binturong was presented to the Zoological Society in 1855, by Mrs. Samuel Rawson, and lived in good health nearly eleven years in the Gardens. It is believed to have been the only example of this scarce animal ever exhibited alive in Europe."

UN special rapporteur on torture Alice Edwards is asking Arab states to shoulder the responsibility for the refugees that Israel created. Israel must let them in as the state that is responsible for their displacement and the denial of their rights.

The "human rights lawyer":

"You talk about it being right to protect people from persecution. Would you increase the number of safe routes?"

"I don't think safe routes is the answer to this vile trade that's being run to put people into small boats."

The prospect of Starmer as PM makes me despondent tbh. It'll be grindingly the same, just perpetuating mediocrity and mouthing short-lived vacuous platitudes in the face of massive strategic issues.

Some of the ramparts of Ardoch Roman Fort, near the village of Braco in Perthshire. With as manay as six distinct lines of ditches and ramparts, it is amongst the most impressive fort remains to be found anywhere in the Roman Empire.

The arrests and violence against protesters are meant to tire the movement for liberation and scare us into complacency. They are afraid of the power we hold as a collective.
